As a former professional horse trainer for 17 years, I have always led an active lifestyle. Like many others, despite pursuing outdoor activities and a physically demanding occupation, I still found the need to partake in various diet philosophies in order to try and maintain a healthy desired weight. To varying degrees these all proved unsuccessful long term. To answer the question “So my friend, what journey brought you here?” (Expedia.ca)… I began to pursue the integral component nutrition played in our quest for overall health, fitness and longevity. Not only did this prove successful for me personally, but I was able to help friends and family who were struggling with even more severe health issues. This became the catalyst for my desire to become a Nutritional Health Coach. I would love the opportunity to structure a simplified approach to a healthier lifestyle and de-mystify the nutritional concepts for long term success.
