About me…

“And though she be but little, she is fierce”. Shakespeare

I have always been curious about how to live my best life, reach for all that is possible and be a good person. I spent my career in fashion and am proud to have helped build a company up to the day, as President, helped “ring the bell” on the Stock Exchange. I have led and motivated thousands of women and men, and it is with that in mind that I started this business.

I realized that if I applied the same principles to wellness as I did to my fashion career, I could lead, educate and inspire people to do the same.

I work hard to help my clients achieve amazing results eating whole and healthy foods. Heather, happier, and living their best and beautiful life!
