Your Healthy Habits after 50 Matter
Hi! I’m Dana!
For years, I struggled with back pain, headaches, extra weight, and zero energy. Add to that the rollercoaster of perimenopause—night sweats, hot flashes, mood swings, even depression—and honestly, I was ready to give up.
Every doctor I saw offered the same thing: prescriptions, steroid shots, and temporary fixes with more side effects than solutions. None of it made me feel like myself again.
So, I took matters into my own hands. I dove into yoga, holistic nutrition, and meditation—and everything began to shift. My pain eased, my menopause symptoms calmed down, and little by little, I felt my strength, balance, and energy return. Most importantly? My mind grew steadier, and joy crept back into my everyday life.
Today, at 58, I’m a certified Holistic Nutritionist, Wellness Coach, and Yoga Instructor. I help women 50+ create a positive mindset, nourish their bodies with simple nutrition, and find freedom in movement that feels good.
My mission is simple: to give you tools that actually work—so you can fuel your body, calm your mind, and move with joy in this amazing stage of life.
simple wellness practices can help you Feel good, vibrant, and joyful—at any age.
My Approach
Your path to optimum wellness is going to be very different from mine, or anyone else's. It’s about practicing daily habits that move you toward the outcomes you desire. In essence, it's what helps you to not just survive, but THRIVE. We’ll focus on three key areas of your wellness then we’ll work together to create practices that fit into your life.
MINDSET
It's very easy to get discouraged by what you "can't" do anymore, or what you used to be able to do. You may not be able to control what's going on with your body as you age but I'll show you that you can learn to control your inner world with the right mindset.
MOVEMENT
You don’t have to go to the gym every day or train to run a marathon. Your body was made to move, even as you age. Incorporating movement into every day is essential but it has to be what you love doing too. We’ll figure that out as we work together.
NUTRITION
I believe holistic nutrition, adding more plants to the diet, is an essential wellness practice to support the body's healing abilities and prevent disease. I also believe in simplicity. Complicated or trendy diets are too difficult to maintain. Eat real, whole foods and your body will thank you!
