In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Fiona Smith, a Restorative Wellness Practitioner and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who helps women identify root-cause imbalances that can result in weight loss resistance, painful periods, acne, and hormonal and digestive issues.

We discuss all things health + wellness, coaching + serving clients, social media, and following your intuition in all aspects of your life – even if it breaks the “rules” you think you need to follow.

You’ll LOVE this episode if you’re interested in women’s health + navigating the U.S. medical system as a woman, online health + fitness coaching, attraction marketing (aka: using your social media content to draw perfect-fit clients), and growing your business by being YOURSELF online!
