Find a Certified Coach

I am a nationally board-certified functional and integrative medicine health and wellness coach who supports clients in creating meaningful, sustainable lifestyle change. My work is rooted in positive, strengths-based approaches that honor each person’s values, natural abilities, and lived experience—rather than rigid rules or quick fixes.

I take a holistic view of life and health, recognizing that we all move through cycles of harmony and challenge. While I’m not religious, my work is gently spiritual in the sense that it emphasizes self-compassion, presence, and perspective. I believe that when we meet challenges with curiosity, positivity, and kindness toward ourselves, we cultivate deeper gratitude, resilience, and long-term well-being.

I work closely with clients to uncover what truly matters to them and help them stay connected to those values and strengths over time. By aligning daily choices with a clear long-term vision, my clients build lives that feel more intentional, balanced, and authentic—supporting both their health and their sense of fulfillment.

Outside of coaching, Jeni enjoys spending time with family, hiking and traveling to new places. She starts each day with gratitude and believes small, meaningful actions can create lasting change.

A Personal Note from Jeni:

I grew up on a small farm in rural America surrounded by horses, goats, gardens, and bees. Raised by a resilient single mom and a steady, soft-spoken grandfather, I learned early that grit, hard work, and kindness are the foundation of a meaningful life.

Fast forward → degrees in education, a master’s in health science, a educator, and three kids to raise (who are now adulting, yay!).

From the outside, everything looked “perfect.”

Behind the scenes, though, I was juggling caregiving, solo parenting, and survival.

Burnout wasn’t a buzzword—it was my reality.

That’s when I realized: I didn’t want to just hold it all together. I wanted to live fully. So I stopped chasing balance - and started building it.

Today:

I’m a Certified Master Coach (ICF-MCC), a Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), founder of The Standing Mountain and the Connecting Coaches, and a professor at a local college.

Through my work, I help high-achieving professionals, like Founders, CEOs, and Execs (including their spouses), who feel stretched thin recalibrate how they live, lead, and show up—at work and at home.

My clients often come to me when they’re:

- Managing stress that’s no longer sustainable

- Struggling to balance ambition with well-being

- Having a difficult time unplugging and connecting with their family

- Asking, “Is this really how I want to live?”

Together, we work to:
✅ Get clear on what actually matters
✅ Improve energy, communication, and clarity
✅ Reconnect with purpose and lead from it
✅ Build sustainable routines (without burning out)

Beyond Coaching

I’ve worn many hats - working mother, professor, caregiver, founder, partner.
I know what it feels like to show up for everyone else while wondering how to stay true to yourself.

That’s why my work goes deeper than strategies or checklists. It’s about creating a life where you can lead with clarity, live with energy, and love the person you’re becoming.

My path into coaching began when my own life went sideways.

I made an international move to the West Indies, expecting to begin a new chapter. Instead, things unfolded very differently. The experience left me feeling deeply unsettled, and my nervous system felt overwhelmed. Physical symptoms followed and stayed with me for years. I had become, in a word, undone.

It was difficult to feel so unlike myself , to want to move forward while struggling to feel steady in my own body. I was trying to understand what was happening to me while also figuring out what my life would look like next. That experience gave me a personal understanding of how disorienting it can be when your health and your circumstances change at the same time.

It also sparked a deeper interest in the connections between stress, health, daily habits, and our sense of well-being. I began to appreciate the importance of feeling heard, having choices, and taking steps that respect where we are. Sometimes the first step is simply finding enough steadiness to consider what comes next.

Before entering coaching, I worked in financial services, and sales. These roles taught me to listen carefully, build trust, and support people through important decisions. The part I valued most was always the human connection: understanding the person behind the questions and concerns.

I graduated from the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy in 2025 and became a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) later that year. My training provided a foundation in behavior change, strengths-based coaching, positive psychology, and a whole-person approach to well-being. I’m also continuing my education through the Functional Diagnostic Nutrition program & CCCP

As a volunteer listener with 7 Cups, I offer compassionate, nonjudgmental emotional support. This work reinforces something my own experience taught me: being able to speak openly and feel heard can matter enormously when life feels uncertain.

These experiences helped shape The Sideways Life with Shannon Cavazzi. I’m especially drawn to supporting women in midlife who are navigating changes in their health, relationships, work, or identity the moments I call “lifequakes.” You may look like you’re holding everything together while privately wondering how to find your footing again. That feeling is familiar to me.

I bring professional training, lived experience, and a warm, practical coaching style to our work together. Your story will be different from mine, and I want to understand what matters to you. Together, we’ll recognize the strengths you can draw on, explore your choices, and find manageable steps toward a life that feels more like your own.

Hi, I’m Danielle, a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach.

My interest in health and wellness goes way back. I was extremely curious from an early age about ingredients, products, nutrition, and our environment. I can remember being the child researching the difference between d-alpha-tocopherol and dl-alpha-tocopherol in my spare time. Over time, that curiosity grew into a real passion for health, wellness, sustainability, performance, and more natural living.

Sport is a large part of my story too. I was a nationally ranked junior tennis player in Canada, played Division I in college, and continued coaching throughout my corporate career to stay connected to the sport and help others. Increasingly, people were asking me for help beyond the court, with off-court training and the foundations that support health, wellness, and performance.

In the office, I also found myself having more and more conversations with colleagues and peers about sleep, recovery, exercise, and staying healthy while navigating demanding careers.

This led me to pursue National Board Certification, bringing a structured, evidence-based approach to an area I had been passionate about for years.

What I love most about coaching is the experimenting, testing, and design: figuring out what’s working, what isn’t, and building a plan that fits. The best part is seeing someone’s confidence and self-knowledge grow along the way.

Areas of Particular Interest

Executive Wellness & Performance
Supporting health, energy, and performance alongside demanding careers and schedules.

Supporting health and performance through business travel, changing environments, and adventure, informed by travel to 30+ countries and experiences including climbing Kilimanjaro, trekking to Everest Base Camp and the Inca Trail, cycling across Jordan, running the New York City Marathon, and earning my PADI Open Water certification.

Cleaner Living & Environmental Wellness
Reducing overall toxic load and making informed choices around products, ingredients, and the environments we live and work in.

As a Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach, I am committed to empowering individuals to take control of their health. Whether they are managing an autoimmune condition or simply seeking to improve their overall well-being, I guide them on a path of self-discovery and sustainable change. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at age 17 and had my thyroid surgically removed. There was so much I was never told, never made aware of. For years it was a rollercoaster of feeling crazy, alone, abandoned, depressed, weak, lost, afraid, and just plain defeated. It wasn’t until years later that I finally started to take control of my health and well-being. Because of my thyroid issues I’ve been forced to look at every aspect of my life and make the necessary changes to move from surviving to thriving. I started my Health Coaching journey in July of 2024 and am now a Certified Health & Wellness Coach. I am working towards becoming Nationally Certified in 2025 through the National Board of Health & Wellness Coaches. Making the decision to coach is a culmination of everything I’ve gone through and my desire to help others confidently take the next step in their journey.

I work with two kinds of people, and what they have in common might surprise you.

One is still in the same classroom, the same role, the same work they love and that's exactly the point. They're not looking for a way out. They're looking for a way through. A way to keep showing up without slowly disappearing in the process. 

The other has made a dramatic external change; a move, a new country, a life that looks completely different from the outside. They took the leap. And now they're living in the part nobody talks about: the disorientation, the quiet grief, the slow work of figuring out who they are in this new context.

Different journeys. The same core question: How do I stay rooted in who I am while everything around me, or inside me, keeps shifting?

That's the question I'm here to help you sit with.

I came to this work the long way. A love of stories led me to teach English, eventually to classrooms around the world, and to roles that kept expanding: teacher, manager, mentor, coach, counselor. I thrived in the complexity of it all… until I didn't. Like many people who pour themselves into their work, I hit burnout. Finding mental health support wasn't just a professional turning point, but a lifeline. It gave me language, tools, and permission to be both a work in progress and worthy of care.

That experience reshaped my purpose.

Today I'm a coach because I believe everyone deserves that kind of support; especially the people quietly holding everything together. My work isn't about fixing you or optimizing your life. It's about slowing down enough to hear yourself again, and building the kind of wellbeing that makes it possible to stay in the work you love, root into a new place, or move forward without second-guessing every choice.

I am a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, a Certified Mental Health Coach, and a proud graduate of the Headspace Training Institute.
