“Health is the ability to live your dreams.”

Hello! I’m Lorilyn.

You are meeting me here because I passionately believe that a life aligned with your values is a happier one, and I want to help you realize that for yourself.  After teaching for more than 20 years at the college level and experiencing the power that motivation and engagement played in the life of others, I was searching for a way to move forward myself and help in an even bigger way. Having experienced mentorship and support in my own life, I am thrilled to have found a way to do this for others.

I have always been passionate about health, nutrition, healthy eating…I love food! And, like many of you, I’ve noticed my beliefs have changed with the times. There was the low-fat phase, the vegetarian phase, the keto phase….and the food pyramid seems to have practically turned upside-down! So, if you’re confused, I get it. There’s a lot of noise out there! And then you add aging to the mix, and you find the ‘fixes’ that worked before don’t seem to work anymore! Thankfully I’ve learned that it’s not as complicated as it seems. I’m so excited to share what I’ve learned with you, and help you find that clarity for yourself.

But truthfully, I’ve found that life ITSELF can get in the way! When I came across the Functional Health Coach Program at the Kresser Institute, a lot of bells went off for me.  So, I enrolled and ultimately graduated from the program as a Functional Health & Wellbeing Coach. Then I decided to take it a step further and sit for the National Board Exam. Preparing for this helped to really solidify all that I’ve learned these past few years, and as a Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach I’m trained to help others find their path and get back on track. I coach my clients with an emphasis on realizing their values and using that awareness to build a more fulfilling life.

My latest endeavor has led me to becoming a Certified YouMap® coach. When I discovered the value in having the insight this assessment tool provides, I had to add it to my offerings. Having personal insight, self-knowledge and awareness is a powerful tool in our work towards growth and change and reaching goals! Read more about it and see the options in the Coaching tab above.
