Functional Health Coach
Functional Health Coach
Hi, I'm Carolyn, a Functional Health Coach passionate about empowering people to reclaim their health. My health journey led me to discover the power of holistic wellness. I'm dedicated to helping others find balance and vitality in their lives."
With my expertise in human behavior and motivation and a solid nutrition and stress management foundation, I guide my clients toward sustainable wellness solutions through Functional Coaching, Life coaching, or Intuitive healing. Together, we devise goals and strategies to address health issues and integrate healthy habits into their lifestyles. I blend science-backed strategies with compassion, whether you're navigating weight loss, stress, gut health, or anything else.
I have created easy-to-follow, fun, and engaging physician-approved programs to address many concerns, whether you want to lose weight and get in shape, fix gut health, learn how to live with diabetes, create healthier habits and mindsets, or much more.
What is a Functional Health Coach?
Their approach is based on science and centers on the biochemical and genetic complexities of the body. A Functional Health coach will guide clients through dietary changes or prescribed food plans, support clients seeking to incorporate movement and exercise into their daily routines, and inform clients of ways to improve sleep quality, manage stress, and cultivate mindfulness.
- A Functional Health coach is like a personal health guide, mentor, and supporter. They help clients make lasting, meaningful lifestyle changes that contribute to overall well-being, backed by science.
- Functional Health Coaches focus on various aspects of health, including nutrition, fitness, stress management, sleep, and more. Their goal is to empower clients to take charge of their health and create positive habits.
Benefits of having a Coach:
- Setting Goals: Coaches help clients set health-related goals. These goals range from weight loss and improved energy levels to stress reduction and better sleep quality.
- Guidance and Support: They provide ongoing advice, encouragement, and practical strategies to help clients achieve their goals. This support extends beyond physical health and includes emotional well-being.
- Behavior Change: Coaches focus on behavior change. Instead of prescribing specific actions, they guide clients through an internal process, helping them make sustainable changes that align with their unique needs and circumstances.
- Holistic Approach: Health and wellness coaches consider the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. They recognize that well-being isn't just about physical health and mental and emotional balance.
- Collaboration: Coaches often work alongside other professionals (such as personal trainers, nutritionists, or healthcare providers) to create a comprehensive approach to wellness.
- Why Are Health Coaches Important?
- Personalization: Coaches tailor their guidance to each individual. They understand that what works for one person may not work for another, so they adapt their approach accordingly.
- Empowerment: Coaches empower clients to take ownership of their health. They encourage clients to make informed choices by fostering self-awareness and providing tools.
- Long-Term Impact: Unlike quick fixes, health and wellness coaching focuses on sustainable change. Coaches help clients build habits that last beyond the coaching relationship.
- Emotional Well-Being: Coaches recognize that emotional health significantly impacts physical health. They address stress, mindset, and emotional resilience.
- Preventive Approach: Coaches play a preventive role by helping clients avoid health issues before they arise. They promote overall well-being rather than just treating symptoms.
- Difference Between Functional Health Coaches, Life Coaches, and Intuitive Healing Coaches:
- Functional Health Coach: Primarily focuses on physical health, nutrition, exercise, and preventive measures.
- Life Coach: Addresses broader life aspects, including career, relationships, personal growth, and fulfillment.
- Intuitive Healing Coach: takes a holistic approach, considering physical and emotional well-being. They guide clients toward balanced and fulfilling lives. They focus on clients' energy and believe anyone can improve their way of living if they change their outlook and habits.

Adrenal Fatigue/Reset 6 WEEK Program $1200
The adrenal glands, located on top of the kidneys, produce a variety of essential hormones that help keep your metabolism, blood pressure, immune system, and stress response in balance.
These hormones are:
- Cortisol
- Adrenaline
- Aldosterone
When these glands do not produce enough hormones, the condition is referred to as adrenal insufficiency. This can occur due to various reasons, including other medical conditions, surgeries, or treatments such as radiation or certain medications.
However, one of the most common causes of adrenal insufficiency is chronic stress. The adrenal glands struggle to cope with the constant demands of the body's fight-or-flight response triggered by ongoing stress.
Common symptoms of adrenal insufficiency include:
- - Extreme fatigue
- - Body aches
- - Loss of appetite and weight loss
- - Nausea and vomiting
- - Low blood pressure
- - Lightheadedness
- - Loss of body hair
- - Changes in skin color (hyperpigmentation)
- - Salt cravings
- - Depression
Adrenal insufficiency can be diagnosed through tests that measure the levels of adrenal hormones in the body.
Our 6-week program is designed to help clients implement lifestyle, nutritional, and self-care changes to fully repair their adrenal system. Each week, participants receive guidance that includes recipes and step-by-step instructions for daily activities, exercise, meal planning, nutrition, and supplements. Follow-up visits will be scheduled for weeks 2, 4, and 6, along with two guided meditation or Reiki sessions in weeks 3 and 5.
You should contact your Primary healthcare provider whenever you have symptoms that concern you, with or without a diagnosis of an adrenal disorder. Some of these might include:
- Unexplained weight loss.
- Gaining weight primarily in your upper body.
- Feeling so tired that you can’t get through your daily tasks.
- Being in any type of pain that’s severe or that doesn’t stop.
- Experiencing changes in hair growth.
- Experiencing skin changes, like bruising easily or developing stretch marks.
If you have adrenal insufficiency, you could experience an adrenal crisis. This life-threatening condition happens due to a severe lack of cortisol.
Call 911 or go to your local emergency room if you develop:
Severe pain in your lower body that comes on quickly.
Bouts of vomiting and diarrhea.
Weakness.
Confusion and loss of consciousness (fainting).
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Low blood pressure.

HEALTHY HABITS
The secret to losing weight once and for all!
You’ve done it wrong Every time you’ve tried to lose weight. And then the weight comes back. Maybe even some extra on top. You have failed. Again. You’re sure of it. Everyone else loses the weight and keeps it off. Ordinary people don’t have problems with their weight. Normal people manage this without worry.
You are a freak of nature… EXCEPT THAT YOU’RE NOT.
Physician – Health Coach Program
Weight loss programs are designed to make sure you fail in the long-term, so you keep coming back and buying more programs over and over.
I am here to help you succeed. As your health coach, I assure you that you will feel amazing and find your optimal health. Nowhere in that description is a cycle of losing and regaining weight. It feels awful to be stuck in that cycle. I wouldn't be doing my job if you did that because of my advice.
So, how do you break the cycle?
You break the cycle by doing something different. By looking at how a doctor would recommend you find your optimal health (because a doctor does) and taking that advice. By trusting that science works for all of us. By breaking the cycle of restrict/gain weight/restrict/gain weight – forever.
Slow is sustainable. Sustainable is forever.
I wish that I could sell you a pill that would make weight and health no longer an issue. The fact is, that doesn’t exist. There is no magic solution that will permanently change things overnight. However, there are a number of methods that will get you to permanent change over time.
You can achieve sustainable long-term results like:
• Find a healthy weight for your body
• Love your body and its gifts to you
• Eat real food and lose weight
• Support your activity and have energy all day
• Never feel deprived or hungry on your journey to health
Sounds different from what you’re used to doing right?
As a health coach, I do things differently. I’m not focused on making money for a large corporation. My mission is to help you find your optimal health and thriving life.
The Healthy Habits program will do exactly that. Over 12 weeks, you will begin to build habits you can keep for life. Based on your individual needs, you have the option of three program levels. Each program option below will deliver the benefits I listed above—the difference is the amount of personal attention you enjoy while on your journey. Choose from Bronze, Silver, or Gold.
