Meet Mackenzie

Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach 

Who I am and Why I Do This Work

 

As a Functional Medicine Health Coach, I'm passionate about helping women reclaim their energy, balance their hormones, and feel unstoppable.

After years of struggling myself and watching other women struggle with fatigue, brain fog, digestive issues, and mood swings, I knew there had to be a better way than quick fixes and cookie-cutter advice.

 

That’s what led me to functional medicine, a whole-person approach that looks at how your gut health, hormones, stress, sleep, and daily habits all work together. Instead of chasing symptoms, we focus on understanding what’s really getting in the way of you feeling your best.

My mission? To empower you with personalized strategies, science-backed tools, and unwavering support so you can feel strong, confident, and deeply connected to your body.

More About Me

My family and I made a big leap when we moved from Portland, Oregon to Alpena, Michigan to create Brighter Moons, our apple and lavender farm. It’s a dream rooted in nature, wellness, and living life by design. When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me tending to the orchard, sipping herbal tea, experimenting with nourishing recipes, or enjoying a good yoga flow.

Your best life starts here—let’s design it together!
