JENNIE DOCHERTY, HEALTH COACH

MY STORY

Hello and welcome! My name is Jennie Docherty and I am a Certified Health Coach. My journey into the world of health began long before I knew what the concept even was. Since a young age, I was involved in every possible sport, going on to compete in Cross Country and Track & Field at the University of Iowa. It was during that time I began to experience health issues of my own.

What started as overtraining led to chronic injuries, fatigue, and systemic imbalances - across hormones (like no period for 8 years), gut (colon surgery, stomach pain, bloating, constipation), skin (hi mold and psoriasis), immune (viral infections), sleep, brain fog, weight gain, the works. I didn’t know better at the time, so kept pushing through, when my body was really screaming at me to pause and re-evaluate how I was living my life and why. 

It took me over a decade of trial and error (apparently that’s how I learn!) to peel back all the layers and truly understand what creates health and vitality in our lives. And let me tell you, it’s not perfectly following a restrictive diet or an overly complicated supplement protocol. Yes food and supplements have a place in building health, but there is so much more - and it’s a lot simpler than one might expect.

I believe my health challenges existed to guide me on a journey back to myself, to nature, to God, and to deeper alignment. I've learned and grown so much along the way, that I would love to support others in doing the same ❤︎

MY PHILOSOPHY

I believe that when we are our most authentic selves, we achieve our highest levels of health and happiness. Much of what we experience in our bodies is misalignment with our truth. There is always a root cause and my intention is to help you identify and heal at your core, for long-lasting results. Whatever your concern or goal, we will transform your life beyond what you ever imagined!
