A Little About Me
I am an FDN-P (Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner) who graduated from Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® school and would love to share my experience.
I returned to school because traditional medicine couldn't help me with my hormone imbalance. I tried everything to fix it and felt like I kept getting worse.
Using the principles I learned at FDN®, I've put my Hashimotos in remission, and I feel great!
I'm passionate about helping busy women like me stop the cycle of trial and error, balance their hormones, and start feeling good again.
in health and happiness, Inga

HELLO, I'M INGA
Why I Became a Health Coach
MY STORY
Ever since I was a teenager, I dealt with heavy periods and horrible cramps and pain.
By the time I hit my late 20s, I would be in so much pain that I'd medicate as much as possible. I was also exhausted during this time, and my sleep was terrible; my body was constantly in pain, and I could barely drag myself through my workday.
In my 30s, I discovered I had endometriosis—every month of terrible pain for 15 years. Then In my 45s, I had Hysterotomy.
In my 50s, I lost my mom (colon cancer-she was 69 years old), a lot of emotional stress, and an operation-activated autoimmune disease (Hashimoto's disease).
..My journey to becoming a health coach started when I was diagnosed with a chronic autoimmune disease(Hashimoto's) in my early 50s.
My immune system was mistaking the healthy cells of my thyroid for foreign invaders and destroying my thyroid cells a little bit at a time. I was constantly chronically tired, my hands and feet were always cold, I couldn't get enough sleep, brain fog, and I had difficulty losing weight despite eating healthfully.
My doctor, unfortunately, didn't help me. At the time, I felt lost and overwhelmed, unsure of how to manage my symptoms and maintain my health. Over the years, I tried everything from medications to strict diets, but nothing seemed to work.
It wasn't until I discovered holistic health and wellness practices that I began to see real improvements in my health. I started experimenting with different approaches, like yoga, meditation, and a whole-food diet, and slowly but surely, I began to feel better.
Through my journey, I realized the importance of a holistic approach to health and wellness. It's not just about managing symptoms but about caring for yourself on all levels – mind, body, and spirit.

I believe ...
With my Functional Nutrition Health Coaching, you'll get the knowledge you need and, more importantly, the support you need to make sustainable changes in life that will allow you to exchange chronic symptoms for prosperous health!
I know you want nothing more than to feel like yourself, but it's been so long you've almost forgotten what your true self feels like! You dream of a pain-free day where you feel energized, joyful, and healthy, but instead, you:
-
Wake up feeling groggy, and it just gets worse as the day goes on. It's all you can do to function, with nothing left over for doing what you love!
-
Always feel bloated, constipated, and uncomfortable.
-
Struggle with anxiety and nervousness; even when you know everything is okay, you still feel like something terrible is about to happen.
-
Are irritable often and snap at loved ones and co-workers even when there's no reason to.
-
Suffer from joint pain that makes it difficult to do much more than lay in bed or on the couch.
-
Look ten years older than you are due to dry, brittle hair, peeling nails, and dry, dull skin.
-
Battle thyroid disease or autoimmune disorders that seem to get worse.
-
I know you feel alone, scared, and frustrated, but you're not alone! There IS hope to get better!
-
I know this because I've been EXACTLY where you are right now!
