MEET YOUR COACH

Hi, I'm Gayatri, a certified holistic health coach (IIN) focused on reversing insulin resistance and improving blood sugar control. I work as a life coach at Dr. Pal's NewMe program. I'm passionate about helping people make simple but sustainable lifestyle changes with lasting results.

My Journey

I can't wait to take you on a journey – my journey – that transformed me into a passionate health coach. Not too long ago, I was exactly where you might be now. It all started with a shock during my first annual checkup – a PCOD diagnosis and some worrisome cholesterol readings. I was left wondering, 'What's going on? I eat well, right?' It was really surprising. I considered myself fit. But reality hit. That moment sparked my quest to unravel the secrets of food, lifestyle, and their profound impact on our health. I was bombarded with conflicting advice on what to eat, how to exercise, whether to medicate or not, and everything in between. Ever wished you had someone to guide you through this maze? I did too.

My journey kicked off by diving headfirst into the world of nutrition and healthy living. I started with modest yet transformative changes – like prioritizing rest, embracing physical activity, and reimagining the way I approached food. What happened next was truly magical. Not only did my health significantly improve, but something even more incredible occurred – I naturally conceived! Weight loss was just one of the perks; my PCOD was a thing of the past, and my hormones found their balance. Regular menstrual cycles became my new normal.

I realized that change was possible, and it didn't require drastic measures. It was about the subtle yet powerful shifts that completely transformed my well-being. I understood that health is not a fixed destination but a dynamic, ever-evolving journey. I know you might be at a similar crossroads, seeking answers and guidance. That's what inspired me to become a health coach. I had the privilege of learning from exceptional coaches and renowned doctors, not just about food and medicine but also about being a great coach.

I became a health coach because I'm fueled by a burning passion to help others uncover their unique path to wellness, just as I did for myself. I'm not just here to guide you; I'm here to celebrate every milestone in your journey. Together, we'll unveil the incredible potential within you and craft a life filled with vibrant health and well-being.Learn more about how I can help you achieve your best health.
