Registered Kinesiologist & Lifestyle Medicine Coach

🌿 About Me 

Hi! I’m Mindy. 

I help women navigate midlife with a more informed, sustainable approach to health and aging.

If the workouts, diets, or latest wellness trends that once worked no longer seem to fit, you’re not alone. Your body, circumstances, and priorities may be changing too.

My approach brings together: 

• Movement and strength
• Lifestyle medicine
• Nutrition and recovery
• Behaviour change
• Self-awareness and self-compassion

The goal isn’t another rigid plan. It’s helping you understand your body and make health decisions that actually fit your life.

That preserves Mindy’s philosophy while making the section much easier to scan.

💫 Why I Do This Work

I’ve seen firsthand the toll that a lack of wellness support and lifestyle education can take. I watched both of my grandmothers decline far too quickly, and now I’m witnessing my mother and mother-in-law fade with dementia. It’s heartbreaking — especially with recent research proving that so much of this is preventable. 

I have also experience my own personal frustrations and disconnect when my previous HIIT workouts and running started to breakdown my body in my early 40s. I thought I was an expert, and I began to question myself in so many ways! It took me some time to accept that things were changing, I had more to learn, and get past the frustration and disconnect.  I knew I needed a new approach. Now, as I am entering my 50s, I am empowered with a new self concept, new knowledge and tools that work, and I am confident I can embrace the transitions as they occur. It's taken a LOT of time, research and trial and error, and I want to save you the struggles! I offer sustainable, science-backed alternative to 'eat less, move more, lift heavy'. Alternatives that fit into your life, honor your real body, and lead to lasting vitality.

These experiences shaped my purpose:
To help other women write a different story.
One rooted in knowledge, empowerment, and sustainable change.

🌿My Philosophy

True wellness is about more than what you eat or how you move.
It’s about how you sleep, recover, think, connect, and care for yourself in the in-between moments.

I guide women to shift from a “diet and discipline” mindset to one of metabolic health, intuitive living, and self-compassion — blending science with soul to support a vibrant, fulfilling life at every stage.
