From Michelle:
I was raised in an active and healthy household (my mom fed us organic food before it was trendy), yet I experienced many puzzling minor health issues such as IBS and ADHD that traditional Western medicine could not alleviate. After my parents were diagnosed with terminal illnesses one after the other, I embarked on a journey to heal myself physically, mentally, and emotionally, hoping to share my newfound knowledge with my parents and future clients. NutraBrilliance was born!
After moving to Los Angeles and attracting a few clients, I quickly realized I needed business skills, and stumbled into a career in sales that challenged every part of my being. I eventually found my dream job in which I’m able to incorporate my love for alternative medicine into everyday conversations with customers.
Many busy professionals I work with are burnt out, depleted, and their mental health is suffering. I work together with my clients on not just the food and diet aspect, but to create tools and systems for them to build physical, mental, and emotional resilience and perform better in every area of their lives.
I am particularly passionate about nutritional and integrative treatment of ADHD, anxiety, depression, body image and eating disorders, LGBTQIA+ health, and neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease.
Post-COVID, the most common complaints I hear from my clients are brain fog, anxiety, and low energy. If this sounds like you, click the button below for a free discovery session!
