Welcome, I am looking forward to working with you. I am ready to help you succeed with your health goals whether it’s reversing insulin resistance or improving your overall metabolic health. Together we will have regular check ins to discuss how this new lifestyle is going for you and how to stay on track with insulin-smart eating habits in order to nurture the most optimal metabolic health possible for you! I was certified as a FDN Practitioner all the way back in 2018 after spending 5 years bed ridden due to chronic lyme, toxic mold exposure and Hashimoto’s. Becoming a health coach is what empowered me to figure out my next steps, when doctors were unable to help me get better. I was trained on how to order my own blood, stool and saliva labs so that I could better direct and work as a team with my health care providers. Then a few years ago I began to have symptoms of insulin resistance and that encouraged me to become a certified insulin IQ coach. Today I am happy to report that I have my insulin resistance under control. Throughout my journey I have learned to empower my clients in a similar manner. I love helping clients tap into their intuition about what's going on in their body, and overall health, so that they are able to better advocate and make decisions for themselves. My number one goal is to help you to stay on track with insulin-smart eating and lifestyle habits allowing you to look better but even more importantly feel better. If you’re ready to get started book a free consultation with me. I am looking forward to working with you.

Hi, I’m Carrie.

I’m so glad you’re here.

As a Registered Nurse with 17 years of experience, I’ve seen firsthand how important true health and well-being are—and how often people feel unsupported in achieving it. I became a nurse because of my deep passion for helping others, but my own health journey opened my eyes to a different path.

Like many, I reached a point where I didn’t feel fully supported by the traditional medical system. That experience led me to seek deeper answers—and ultimately transform my own health. Now, I’m here to share what I’ve learned so you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I believe that with the right support, guidance, and education, lasting transformation is possible.

What I offer is a shift away from the traditional “sick care” model and toward a proactive, root-cause approach—focused on prevention, reversal, and management of chronic disease. This is about putting you back in control of your health and your life.

Together, we use food as medicine and build a foundation rooted in sustainable, realistic habits. Wherever you are on your journey, we will co-create a personalized plan designed to meet you where you are—and move you forward.

Through small, consistent changes, we create powerful, lasting results.

If you’re tired of chasing quick fixes or relying on a “magic pill,” this is your opportunity to do things differently.

This is your time to take action.

This is your time to build a healthier, stronger you.

Let’s connect—and create something transformative together.

Are you ready?

We live in an Unhealthy Default Reality where disease, dysfunction and delusion have become normalized, celeberated and expected.  It falls on the belief that disease is inevitable and out of our control, therefore, we carry out the conscious and unconscious behaviors and habits that upholds that belief.  Optimizing your health, healing and transformation requires you to look at beliefs that hold you back and change your behaviors and habits.  

As a Heroic Performance Life Coach the greatest experience is helping, guiding and supporting you to break free from the imprisionment of this Unhealthy Default Realty built on the choices made in the past.  With amplified awarenesss and the power of choice you can empower your liberation from the belief that disease is inevitable and out of your control and enter into the Hero's Journey of health, healing and transformation in body, mind and spirit.  

Health is the Foundation to Life.

If one accepts that almost 9 out of 10 individuals find themselves with some degree of active metabolic injury, illness and/or disease, you may find it reasonble to consider this requires Metabolic Rehabilitation to restore optimal cellular metabolic function.  

The challenge I have seen as a pattern with clients is that the one making the choices and decisions also needs rehabilitation. That is to make better decisions that will support your health and wellness goals with understanding everything is connected: Health is of the Body, Healing is of the Mind and Transformation is the Love you have for your Future Self which is created in the next choice you make.  

As a 6 Time Cancer Survivor I know the road to restoring, regenerating and rebuilding trust and faith in the process of opitimizing my physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing.  And the process required one thing:

Self Love.

And Self Love was the very starting point for my journey.  To love, honor and fully accept where I was in the beginning while also learning to love, honor and respect my furture Self.  

Understanding and accepting the Universal framework of Nutrition and Movement as the two engines that can radically transform your pain and problems into potential and possibilities. 

When you are truly nourished in your body, mind and spirit then you move in such a way that it becomes Nourishing.   This is the path and process of renewal and regeneration.

Cancer, any other chronic illness or health challenges doesn’t need to stop your life. Because it’s not over - in fact, your life has just begun. I say bring it on!  Be a Warrior for Your Wellness.  

Part of my evolution and purpose is helping others move forward to optimize their health and wellbeing. That’s why I became a holistic heroic performance life coach focused on HOPE - Helping Other People Evolve into their true authentic selves.

Your body does not fail you - you fail your body. - Dan Hegerich

I’m a health coach who specializes in helping men reverse insulin resistance and take back control of their weight, energy, and long-term health. 

My coaching is rooted in the science taught by Dr. Benjamin Bikman and the Insulin IQ framework, which focuses on lifestyle-first strategies to improve metabolic health.

My path to coaching started with my own interest in fitness and performance.

Along the way, I saw how often men struggle with weight, fatigue, and early signs of metabolic disease, without realizing insulin resistance is at the root.

That pushed me to get my Master Primal Health Certification and then my Insulin IQ certification so I could help others with practical, evidence-based strategies that work in real life.

I don’t hand out quick fixes. I teach you how to eat, move, sleep, and live in a way that makes your body more insulin-sensitive, so you can build habits that last and avoid the chronic illnesses that cut life short.

Brain · Body · Bank™ Coach — helping you master your metabolism and your money.

I help women take care of their health and their money at the same time — because when you’re under financial stress, your body pays the price, and when your health slips, so does your confidence to build the life you want. I stopped treating those as separate problems a long time ago.

My approach is simple: baby steps, not overhauls. Instead of telling you to cut everything out, I help you crowd out — adding in the foods and habits that nourish you, so the things that don’t serve you naturally fall away. It’s gentle, it meets your body where it is, and it’s especially powerful through perimenopause and menopause, when your body needs grace, not another restrictive diet.

I’m a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and trained through NASM in women’s health science — and I’m a certified Insulin IQ coach. I admire Dr. Benjamin Bikman’s strategy on insulin and metabolic health. His science is the backbone of how I help you understand what’s actually happening in your body, instead of guessing your way through another diet. You receive his entire 90 day InsulinIQ program with me as your coach.

My background also runs deep on the financial side — real estate, mortgage, and reverse-mortgage planning (CRMP) — which is exactly why I understand how powerfully money stress shows up in the body. I hold a PhD and an MBA, but what I care about most is walking alongside women through every season, from the young years all the way through the silver stage.

Mind, body, and bank.

It’s never too late to change your story. Let’s connect.

I’m a walking testament to how the Standard American Diet—what I call the "SAD"—can quietly wreak havoc on your health, and how Insulin IQ can turn it all around. For most of my life, I thought I was doing fine, relatively healthy. But over time, things started to slip. High blood pressure, sleep apnea, and crushing fatigue became my new normal. Then came the big blows: surgery to remove my gallbladder, kidney stones, a heart attack, and, to top it all off, a type 2 diabetes diagnosis.

I was drowning in a sea of eight medications, including insulin, just to keep my head above water. But I wasn’t getting better—far from it. The treatments were masking symptoms, not addressing the root cause. That’s when I found Insulin IQ. Their approach, grounded in tackling insulin resistance head-on, was a game-changer. By ditching the carb-heavy SAD and embracing nutrient-dense, low-carb eating, along with targeted lifestyle shifts, I started to heal. My blood sugar stabilized, my energy surged, and my health began to rebound in ways I hadn’t thought possible.

Today, I’m off all eight medications. I feel healthier and more vibrant than I have in years. Insulin IQ didn’t just treat my conditions—it gave me the knowledge and tools to take back my life.
