Who Am I?

Penny Phillips Certified INHC and Mind Body Soul Health Coach and Life Coach

I received my training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, where I studied and know every dietary theory and practical lifestyle/life coaching methods. I am also a member of the IAHC and IAOLC. Credentials mean nothing if you don't get results!  You and I will get those results together. I want to help you be the best version of YOU as you can be.

With my knowledge, we co-create completely personalized actions based on your goals to move you toward your ideal vision of health within your unique body, lifestyle, preferences, and resources. In my own life I have had/still have my own health issues. In 2003 I was diagnosed with Relapsing and Remitting Multiple Sclerosis, and by the time they discovered this, I was already in the advanced stages. This lead me to look into more holistic ways of living with this instead of the conventional disease modifying drugs, which are toxic. To this very day I have never taken the disease modifying drugs or the IV Steroids they give when one has a flare up. I have my good days and I have my bad days with it.  It only gets worse from stress, being over-heated, sickness, gluten, and basically all processed foods.

I have also been diagnosed with several other auto-immune diseases, and all the weird symptoms and health issues that come from that. Auto-immune diseases feed off each other, your body is literally attacking itself. Which came first the MS or the Epstein Barr? It's like the chicken and the egg saying, which one came first, the chicken or the egg? I am not sure, but I treat it all the same...holistically.

My own health issues led me to become a health coach and help others like myself. I help you get to the root of it all, working with your doctor of course. I would never tell you to stop taking your medications, because what works for me may not work for you and vice versa. Western medicine has it's place and is beneficial, but it is also overused. I am not just a health coach but I am also a patient. I get it, I understand. I know all the emotions one feels with chronic illnesses.

On the brighter side of all of this, is, if I had never been diagnosed I would have never become a health coach. I am also a classically trained Soprano. I play the piano and write music as well. I taught voice and piano for over sixteen years. I know the healing power of music and how there are certain tones and beats that literally heal. I want my music to inspire and touch others, shinning the light on their darkness and find healing through my music.

  I of course love music, reading, yoga, pilates, writing and journal. I am a bit of a geek, and of course all things spiritual. I meditate daily, and consider myself more spiritual and a Jesus-follower. I am also an Intuitive and a studying energy healer ,and  When clients come to me or just anyone in general, they know they will always find a safe place. You are accepted and loved as you are, no matter what race/religion/sex/etc. What a boring world this would be if we were all alike. If you have read all this you deserve a cookie...a gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free cookie!

 

Get your cookie here, and tell Jennifer I sent you.

Tell me about you. How can I help?

It's Not You

It’s Not You

Honestly, I know it is hard to believe this when all things seem to be falling apart. I am going through this once again myself. Sure, I have those moments where I feel everything is like rainbows and sunshine, bursting with hope and life, but some days, like today, are storm clouds and rain, and a little melancholy.  I remember when I was a little girl that I thought that rain was God’s tears…

Thursdays Child

It is more than one of my favorite Bowie songs, because it is in fact, the day I came into this world. Do you remember that old Mother Goose nursery rhyme as a child? Let me refresh your memory…

Monday’s child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s child is full of grace;
Wednesday’s child is full of woe,
Thursday’s child has far to go;
Friday’s child is loving and giving,
Saturday’s child works hard for its…
