About Bree.
Every cell in my body vibrates when I have the ability to meet someone new and introduce them to the lifestyle of health and wellness.
️I have been fortunate enough to be surrounded by a village of experts, motivators, mentors and mostly love during my time in this field.
For as long as I remember, I always had a deep desire to understand the whole human body and find all the intertwined connections to gut, mind, body and soul.
I started my journey at Brock University and completed a Bachelor of Kinesiology Degree.
I spent the next couple years as a Strength & Conditioning Coach and the Director of Health & Wellness, and then ventured into becoming a Certified Nutritional Practitioner specializing in gut health, hormones, ailment and disease prevention + maintenance.
Growing up, I faced a heap of health hurdles: debilitating period pain from Endometriosis, chronic bloating, bad bowels and a stubborn inability to shed weight.
I was prescribed birth control to eliminate the symptoms and I naively hoped it would be the magic pill to ease my period pain, but alas, it only made things worse over time, and was just a sticky band-aid fix to other underlying health issues.
Between being a provincial soccer player, full-time student, and worker, my cortisol levels and hormones went haywire- a true recipe for disaster!
The stress of it all left me feeling exhausted, and later in life, I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis.
I spent most of my career specializing in strength training and body recomposition and I noticed so many of my clients also suffered from gut issues, chronic illnesses or ailments that went constantly dismissed that were preventing them from feeling and looking their best.
To get to the root of these issues, I went back to school to become a certified Holistic Nutritionist at the Institute of Holistic Nutrition and worked with gut health gurus to learn about root cause approaches to health.
Armed with the background of Kinesiology, nutrition fundamentals, supplement support, herbal remedies, and diagnostic testing - I finally accomplished a
pain-free period without relying on birth control or over the counter medications and eliminating Colitis flare-ups and lesions all together!
My mission is to help others find the freedom, peace, balance between body & biome and guide humans so they can live their best lives with healthy guts, balanced hormones, stronger bodies, and mindset transformation to find pure expansion in every aspect of life.
