Meet The Coach
Hi there, I’m Natalie.
Former division 1 athlete, mom & health coach certified.
From an early age, I have always had a passion for being active, whether that be on a basketball court, a softball field, or growing up on the beach in Southern California. Growing up in the highly competitive and talented sports world of Orange County, I was fortunate to train and compete alongside the best. As a dual sport athlete throughout my youth, I traveled around the country competing at the highest level in softball, ultimately earning a full-ride scholarship to the University of Texas, and completing my playing career while earning a degree in Sports Management at the University of the Pacific. I experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows as a student-athlete and had to learn quickly how to balance the pressures of achieving success on the field and in the classroom. Not only was I physically pushed to my limits, but my emotional and mental health were continually challenged in ways I never expected.
After graduation, I was fortunate to land the “dream job,” working at an NFL Sports Agency and handling client maintenance for the top NFL athletes. For 14 years, I had the gift of working alongside the best in the industry, all while also balancing being a full-time mom and wife to my two kids and husband. Over time, it became clear to me that I wanted more, and my passion for all things wellness took over!
Which leads me to where I am today. The unofficial “Act 2” of my health journey.
I love to be active, and I’m passionate about educating myself on holistic and integrative health and applying my knowledge to raising healthy and happy kids. But like most women, turning 40 was a rollercoaster ride that I wasn’t prepared for! I found myself struggling with anxiety, disruptive sleep patterns, and the workouts I had always done weren’t serving my body anymore. Compounded by my kids growing school and training demands, I felt like I could barely keep my head above water. So I decided to dedicate my second act to educating myself on all aspects of health so I can help myself - and others - achieve their goals! I received my certification in Health Coaching from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and have taken the incredible tools and resources that I was taught and applied them to my own family and friends. With a daughter who loves ballet, volleyball, and basketball, and a son whose dream is to play professional baseball, it is clear to me that our kids - AND PARENTS - need more support than ever to achieve their dreams. From learning about proper fueling and nutrition to perform optimally, to the importance of quality sleep, and the impact of mindfulness and growth mindset on our success, I’m passionate about helping athletes - and their parents - develop the tools to implement changes that lead to success for everyone!
As a parent, I will do whatever I can to help my children achieve their goals. And I know what it takes to achieve success at a high level. With the knowledge, support, resources, and tools from my experiences and education, I want to help YOU achieve PEAK Health and Wellness.
My Mission
I aim to help clients build long-term, healthy habits that can translate both in their sport and in their daily life.
