Tina McDermott

Inspirational Chef, Speaker & Weight Loss Coach

I spent most of my life struggling with digestive issues – I didn’t understand that the embarrassing gas, bloating, constipation, and yo-yo weight gain/loss all were interconnected. I had these issues since I was a teenager and thought that it was just ‘the way it is’, and that I had to live with it.

Flash forward to my 30’s. I learned that I had Lyme disease, which had gone undetected for years and wreaked havoc on my body. Along with digestive issues, I also suffered from extreme chronic fatigue, depression, vertigo, fevers, weight gain and ultimately Hashimoto’s disease. I thought I was going through menopause at the age of 37! I didn’t understand why all this was happening to me.

The inspiration for my own wellness journey began when my older sister, Anna, was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 23. Cancer ultimately took her at the age of 48. Anna’s illness and suffering was a wake-up call for me to learn more about how to take better care of my own health and help others as well.

It took me five years to finally figure out the way in which to be symptom-free. I now manage my wellness and weight naturally through food, fitness, and the right supplements. Fast forward to 53, and going through menopause, I have learned to embrace the transition and go through it with grace and ease.

My personal mission is to teach women about natural health and wellness, and how to live a healthier and happier life. In my own journey to jouFULLness, I have also discovered powerful methods of releasing self-sabotaging beliefs and teach others how to come to peace with them.

Wishing you a healthy, Vibrant and Free Life!
