Hi, my name is Sarah. I am a mother, a wife, a nurse, and a holistic health coach. I love the outdoors. Gardening and hiking are equivalent to meditation to me. I am also very familiar with stress, chronic health struggles, and histamine intolerance. I was 17 when I left the doctor with my first prescription for an anti-depressant. I complained of chronic joint pain that was so severe that it kept me up at night. My doctor didn’t look any further than his prescription pad and insisted that it was all in my head. That was the start of a long journey of seeking answers from the medical community, only to be labeled as anxious and depressed. Over the years, I experienced a wide array of symptoms, including chronic hives, migraine headaches, fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, extreme bloating, insomnia, and more. There were times that I felt hopeless, and I wondered if maybe I was just “crazy.” In 2012 I had a psoriasis flare that had spread to my face, and I couldn’t open my eye all the way. I also developed chronic hives which took over my life. This was my rock bottom, my wake-up call, the catalyst to find my way and take back my power over my body. I found many like me through the internet, and I didn’t feel so hopeless and alone. I also found that there is a lot that you can do for yourself with dietary changes, learning to manage stress, and reducing toxins in your environment. I learned to find balance after feeling helpless and hopeless. My goal is to help others do the same. Inspired to help others, I sought to further my education. I became a certified functional medicine health coach, AIP and primal certified, and a health coaching certificate for my day job as a nurse. I seek to empower you to take back your power over your body, mind, and spirit so that you can live a whole and happy life.
Specialties: histamine intolerance, chronic urticaria, long covid

Hello, my name is Adriana, I’m a nutritional therapy practitioner and now the ONLY qualified AIP coach in Romania. I became more interested in this protocol after experiencing personal success with AIP, therefore I have dedicated the last few years of my life to studying, grasping and applying all the useful information that helps us all keep our bodies as healthy as possible, whether you’re battling an autoimmune condition or simply unwanted kilograms.
My main focus is working with clients on managing their autoimmune related symptoms by successfully applying the AIP principles, teaching them how to prioritize the important factors in their lives, but also how to make up nutritious and delicious meals for themselves, all of this being tailored for the Romanian and the British market as well (having experiences with both).
Why should we start a collaboration? Because I love working with people towards improving their lives and setting them up for success, whether it’s teaching them about how their body works & learning healthy habits! If you want to manage your autoimmune disease, or want to lose weight in a paced and sustainable way or simply learn how to have healthy, nutritious eating habits, you’ve found the right person!
I am very much aware of the fact that knowledge is power, guidance is essential and support is very important – these are a few mindsets which contribute to my commitment of changing lives. The success one experiences after bettering different aspects of their life is what motives me day by day to be there for you, offer you all my knowledge & guidance in your way to a healthier mind(set) in a healthier body.
I am both Romanian and United Kingdom based, I work with clients in English, Romanian or Spanish, offering online consultations worldwide as well.

Hi! I’m Catie Fitzgerald, a Holistic Nutritionist and Certified Master Primal Health Coach who specializes in helping women leverage diet and lifestyle to make a smooth transition into menopause and create a strong foundation of health in midlife and beyond.
Menopause represents a natural transition in life akin to that of puberty, menarche, and childbirth. It is NOT a disease despite what the medical community and media would have you believe. Every woman living through mid-life will undergo this biological event. Many women sail through the transition without any symptoms other than a gradual cessation of their menstrual periods. Unfortunately, some women experience one or more bothersome symptoms such as hot flashes, weight gain, insomnia, mood swings, and decreased libido.
Research has shown the most relevant factors influencing a woman’s quality of life during the menopause transition include her social situation and her experience of stressful life events. The ongoing activation of the stress response can disrupt almost all body processes, causing symptoms in common with those attributed to menopause such as weight gain, insomnia, forgetfulness, mood swings, and decreased libido.
Treating the symptoms of chronic stress with menopause hormone therapy and other FDA-approved pharmaceuticals does NOT address the underlying root cause. If left unaddressed, the chronic stress you face in midlife can progress from annoying symptoms to the serious pathologies including autoimmune disease.
As a coach, I pair my know-how with your drive and ambition to make change happen. Through a partnership, we work toward achieving your health and wellness goals. I don’t “prescribe”; I describe and guide. You decide and act!

Привет всем! Меня зовут Анастасия Храбрых.
Аутоиммунный тиреоидит Хашимото — такой диагноз мне поставили 10 лет назад. Оказалось, он не такой уж безобидный. Чтобы нормализовать свое состояние, я перешла на АИП питание. Стала работать над причинами аутоиммуннитета под контролем врачей. Полностью изменила свой образ жизни и пришла к любви к себе. На своем пути я добилась заметных улучшений в анализах и самочувствии.
В своей работе я стараюсь объединить все знания:
– по первому образованию я журналист. Так что на моем сайте https://aiharmony.ru/ вы найдете много полезных статей, информации об аутоиммунных состояниях, причинах, актуальные исследования и т.д. Я стараюсь освещать эту тему в России. Объективная и достоверная информация очень важна, когда человек лицом к лицу сталкивается с диагнозом.
– по второму образованию – я магистр психологии. Поэтому особое внимание в своей практике я уделяю психологическому благополучию клиентов. Ведь часто бывает, что человек сам саботирует свое выздоровление, не слышит свое тело, имеет деструктивную установку “не живи”, впадает в отчаяние и не принимает себя таким “поломанным” с аутоиммунным диагнозом. Моя тематика в работе – это любовь и принятие себя. Вход в путь исцеления не из насилия и борьбу с собой, а из любви. Это долгосрочная мотивация.
– сейчас я изучаю нутрициологию и кулинарию. Совсем скоро выйдет моя книга “100 АИП рецептов”. В 2021 году я успешно окончила обучение на Сертифицированного АИП-коуча и планирую далее расширять свою квалификацию в теме персонализированного питания.
Вы можете связаться со мной по почте [email protected] , чтобы назначить 10-минутный бесплатный звонок, где мы обсудим ваше состояние на данный момент и желаемый результат. Я могу помочь вам с мотивацией, принятием себя, безопасным входом в АИП-протокол, буду вас ориентировать и поддерживать на этом пути. Но от вас также важно желание и активность.
Мы в одной лодке – давайте грести вместе!

Hello! I have been driving over the road since 2006 and have traveled all of the lower 48 states.
While on the road I have seen the negative effects of choosing a diet of convenience food. I was encouraged by a mentor to study nutrition since I have so much listening time, I took to audiobooks very well and learned a wealth of health information! In order to share what I have learned with fellow drivers and family I enrolled in the NTA’s Nutritional Therapy Practitioner course and enjoyed both the education and the learning experience.
I have since continued studying while driving full time and enjoy sharing what I learn, I spend some time at healthytribe.com which is my mentor’s baby. I share the cooking, fermenting, culturing, preserving and foraging that I am able to do on the road, along with tips to making it work on the go.
As I continue to research and experiment, I am encouraged forward by the great success the tribe has shown just by changing the diet from conventional convenience foods more toward Whole Foods with a carnivore base, adding fermented foods to help our gut buddies.
We have seen drivers lower A1C’s, get back to 2 year medical cards, drop 100’s of pounds and with the help of their doctors, get off medications that are no longer necessary!
I don’t know what road I’ll end up on in the future, but I am ever optimistic about the trend toward eating whole real food and seeing the great changes it brings to everyone who embraces it!

The energetic world is a play. Food energetics is a beautiful science and aspect of Divine light. What we feel, eat, process and absorb becomes the totality of the body, mind and spirit. My journey with autoimmunity guided me to certain conversations with Spirit which allowed for deep healing. As I began to understand food cravings, trauma and the need to restructure a sensitive nervous system , the Paleo approach gave me a new the foundation to balance , regeneration and energy. I have been following a self guided Paleo approach for 15+ years. I can offer a supportive atmosphere with an encouraging and uplifting way to navigate ones self healing process.
