Meet Your Coach

Hello, my name is Heather Hanson…

Your Guide Back to Wholeness, Peace and Purpose

I am a wife, mom, nana, dog mom, CEO, entrepreneur, and adventure junkie. I am also a best-selling author, speaker, Board-Certified in Holistic Nutrition, Neural Lingual Programming, Functional Medicine Health Coach and so much more.
But more than credentials, I bring lived experience.

Most importantly, I want you to know I understand your struggle.

I’ve walked the frustrating road of unexplained symptoms, autoimmune thyroiditis, and feeling dismissed by traditional medicine. I know what it’s like to look fine on the outside but feel exhausted, inflamed, and disconnected on the inside.

That’s why I’ve created a space where women feel truly seen, heard, and supported.

Using a wide array of tools, I help uncover the hidden imbalances keeping you stuck—and guide you back to clarity, vitality, and alignment.

But it doesn’t stop at physical wellness.

This work is about reconnecting with your body’s wisdom, reclaiming your energy, and rediscovering your peace and purpose. Because when you feel whole again, you can live the life you were meant for—with confidence, joy, and freedom.

You weren’t made to settle for survival.

You were born to thrive—in body, mind, and spirit.

One of those answers was found in food.

For years, I was stuck in a vicious cycle of restrictive eating and binge eating. Out of desperation, I started a food elimination diet and started feeling better right away without wheat, dairy, and corn. But I “cheated” often … and every time, without fail, dairy would make my tongue, throat, and abdomen swell. Wheat would make me feel irritable and anxious with migraines, joint pain, and constipation.

After a tortuous two-week period in which I didn’t have a single bowel movement, I decided enough was enough. Cheating wasn’t worth it. I deserved better, and I needed to recommit to myself and my health.

After all, if I was not kind and loving to myself, who would be?
Giving myself permission to get well was a game-changer for my career. I had already spent years working in an internal medicine practice, so I began expanding my training and knowledge on holistic health. I implemented a 12-week Cardiometabolic Therapeutic Lifestyle program at the practice with amazing results for some patients, but others still struggled. I continued to dive deep, taking more courses and learning about digestion, genetics, hormonal imbalance, nutrient absorption, and more.

I found my calling as a Nutritional Therapist

For years, I searched for answers—dealing with brain fog, chronic fatigue, autoimmune thyroiditis, and a long list of unexplained symptoms that left me feeling defeated. After endless doctors, misdiagnoses, and feeling like a stranger in my own body, I realized something life-changing:

Healing doesn’t begin in a prescription pad—it begins by being heard, understood, and empowered.

My personal health struggles ignited a fire in me to uncover the why behind symptoms and to create a safe space for women who’ve been told “everything looks normal” when they feel anything but.

I found my calling in walking with women through their most confusing and vulnerable health seasons—using a blend of functional nutrition, mindset coaching, emotional release, energy and breathwork, and advanced lab testing to uncover root causes and restore vitality at the cellular level.

This isn’t just my profession—it’s my purpose.

Nothing brings me more fulfillment than watching a woman reclaim her energy, her confidence, and her connection to her body… and begin living a life she truly loves.
