Hi! I’m
Danielle!
Hi 👋🏻 I’m Danielle! Founder of empowered mind + body and co-founder of unconventional collaborative. I help women create full, healthy, badass lives through health + wellness.
Prior to becoming a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner I spent years in a number of different health related fields.
Most recently as a physician assistant and prior to that a mental health therapist and personal trainer. I also hold certifications as a certified nutrition coach and fertility educator.
I work with everyday humans who are in pursuit of living the life they’ve imagined. I blend my background together into a unique, integrative coaching approach to help people like you improve their energy, ditch period problems, constipation, “IBS”, sleep better, improve libido + so much more.
After founding empowered mind + body I got together with my friend Laura Ligos (aka the sassy dietitian) + we founded our practitioner mentor group, Unconventional Collaborative.
What is unconventional collaborative? A virtual space for like minded practitioners to learn from each other, guest speakers, monthly case presentations + more to help elevate your practice.
Are you a health practitioner interested in joining?

When I’m not working 1:1 with clients or ENDLESS back end stuff, you can find me podcasting, lifting weights, running, hanging out with my pups, reading or planning my next adventure!

I am madly passionate about individuals thriving in their lives instead of merely getting by surviving in their health

MORE ABOUT ME
I hate small talk, large groups + despite being a loud human– being the center of attention. I love the mountains, hiking, nature, my dogs, the sound of birds in the morning + the humans in my life. My favorite place (so far) on this planet is Yosemite National Park + largely the Sierra mountain range in California.
