In the last 18 years Nina has endured pain, two brain surgeries, 30 days of radiation therapy,  taken a pharmacy of medications, and had multiple terrifying setbacks in her health. There was a point where she didn't know if she would or even wanted to live. This is when she decided to fight for  her life and take control of her health. 

In the last 9 years she married the love of her life, became a Mom, a Doctor, professor and award winning clinician. She ditched 99% of the medications she was taking on a daily basis and  lost over 150 lbs. 

Nina's wellness journey is an  inspiring  reminder that we all have the ability to heal mentally, emotionally, and physically.

At some point in our life we have all received the message that being skinny equals being good! Laura was on a journey to be skinny in her teens, yo-yo dieted through her college years and spent most of her days calculating calories in and calories out.  When Laura became a mom she made a promise not to pass down diet- culture mindset to her daughter. This is where her wellness journey  started. Listen to how Laura found the confidence to loose the weight for the last time and find personal freedom! 

 Laura Conley is a certified Life + Weight Loss Coach and a Certified Yoga and Meditation Teacher.
