Your Fitness Formula

Marci Nevin and I discuss health myths and how to establish a better relationship with food. We cover various topics from food restriction to trusting yourself to forgiving yourself when you do make a mistake.

Marci is a fitness and nutrition coach in Northern California. Having struggled with health issues including an autoimmune disease that resulted from disordered eating and over-exercising in her twenties, her purpose is to empower women to take a holistic approach to their health and fitness. She believes daily spiritual practices, stress management, proper nutrition, and purposeful strength training are the foundation of lasting change. She's passionate about sharing the tools she used in overcoming her own struggles to help others rewrite the stories that no longer serve them and  start becoming their most aligned and fulfilled selves.
