Healed Relationship With Food
“The past three months have been unlearning the diet culture you’re taught as a young girl and realizing that it really all is bullsh*t and that it’s not healthy for you in any way….I’ve n0ticed my anxiety has decreased quite a bit from eating what my body actually needs.” -Brenna
Functional Medicine Meets Fitness
“When we started working together I was so surprised how many of my nutrients were out of range. It was so cool to learn how they’re all connected and how to get them through food…Now it’s all become a habit. Supplements, meals, hydration, workouts, I go through the day and they’re automatic…And I know I don’t have to be perfect, as long as I’m being consistent.” -Rylee
Confidence to Create Change
“Working with Kelli gave me the knowledge and boost of confidence I needed to really kickstart my health journey. I’ve always known I wanted to embed healthy choices and nourishment into my lifestyle but I needed the confidence to tell myself I was capable of it. Having her there for me was exactly what I needed to finally embed these things. It’s been more than 6 months since I worked with her and my life has done a complete 180. Not only have I established a positive and everlasting mentality around grocery shopping, cooking, exercise and being conscious about what I’m putting into my body, but the biggest change I’ve noticed has been my mental health. With a healthy and happy body and mind life has become infinitely more joyous. I am grateful every day for the investment I put into myself and my health by working with Kelli, because without health, nothing else matters.” - Emily
Self Care to Support Hormones
“After struggling with endometriosis, it was cool to look through all the panels with Kelli and see that I had some deficiencies and learning how to use supplements and foods. It was eye-opening putting it into practice. After tracking my cycle intentionally, I was able to see if I need more food at different points based on how I felt and symptoms I tracked with Kelli…I used to skip breakfast a lot because I just wasn’t hungry, now I am making sure to have it and have started getting morning hunger back. I’m also prioritizing having enough protein and fiber consistently to fuel for my workouts and busy job. Overall it was just great gaining so much more information about my body’s needs.” -Mary Grace
“Working with Kelli has been such an amazing, empowering and healing experience. Her knowledge and encouragement towards her clients has literally changed my life. From being unable to function once a month to having relatively pain-free menstrual cycles, Kelli has given me knowledge and tools to change how I understand and approach hormone healing!” -Aleksei
Tuning in After Hormonal Birth Control
“Kelli’s support gave me the confidence to transition off of birth control and support my body’s nutrition needs through food and supplementation. She guided in learning to track my body’s cyclical changes and incorporate Fertility Awareness Method, it’s been such an empowering experience.” -Alex

Let’s work together
Drawing on her expertise as a Registered Dietitian, community health educator, and personal trainer, Kelli leverages her experiences to empower clients on their health journeys. Through personalized coaching, she navigates clients through the maze of nutrition and exercise misinformation, ensuring they make progress. Kelli incorporates a combination of nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and strategic supplementation to aid clients in achieving weight loss goals and addressing symptoms associated with hormone imbalances like Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Endometriosis and thyroid conditions. One of her favorite parts of coaching is supporting clients in overcoming challenges such as burnout and seld-doubt, fostering their overall well-being.
Unfiltered Nourishment is built upon the principles of accountability, vitality, and optimism. Kelli's coaching methodology revolves around the concept of small "microhabits" that, when consistently practiced and layered together, yield significant physiological transformations for our well-being. The key element often lacking in maintaining long-term consistency and achieving results is accountability. Kelli recognizes this and emphasizes its importance in her coaching approach. Optimism lies at the heart of her teaching style and interactions with clients who may have previously felt overlooked or dismissed by medical professionals in addressing their symptoms and challenges. By integrating the right scientific knowledge, vitality thrives as a natural outcome of the coaching process.
