Board Certified Holistic Nutrition and Wellness Coach & Founder of Be Well with Chris Ann, Inc.
So happy to meet you!
My name is Chris Ann Sepkowski. I am a Board Certified Holistic Nutrition and Wellness Coach specializing in Hormonal Health and the proud founder of Be Well with Chris Ann, Inc.
10 years ago, I suffered a major health scare that changed my life. From that experience, I have educated myself on the healing power of nutrition and overall wellness in our mind, body, and soul. It is all a perfect storm that comes together, one step and decision at a time. My goal is to empower and motivate others to achieve their goals through mindful nutritional choices and lifestyle planning. From shopping to pantry organization, to growing produce at home, planning, preparing, and cooking healthy meals, I can assist you with the right skills and tools. Through mindful meditation and the belief in yourself to be confident and open to receive, you can live the healthy and happy life you desire. It's all within reach!
I am a wife and a mom of six children and three grandchildren. I would love to support and encourage you and your family to be happy, be healthy, be empowered, and be well.

Certified Nutrition Specialist, National Board Certified Health Coach
In 2016 I was diagnosed with autoimmune arthritis. After years of pain, it was good to finally have an answer to what was happening in my body. I was introduced to the Auto Immune Protocol by a friend and I immediately started eliminating problematic foods from my diet. In a week, there was a marked difference. By month 6, I was back to my active self I’d been in high school. My pain levels have been reduced by 85%; I am glad to share what I’ve learned in this journey with you.
Let's get to the root cause of your health issues for good.
Here's my approach: we utilize customized holistic nutrition, cutting-edge lab testing and high-quality supplements to balance your body from within. Your body has the capacity to heal: let's get you there.
Functional lab testing is key to understanding your body's needs, and I believe testing is the secret sauce to get my clients long-lasting results.
Say goodbye to digestive issues, irregular bowel movements, skin inflammation and obsessing about your diet!
My specialties include:
✔ Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
✔ Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
✔ Poor Digestion, Bloating, Heartburn
✔ Stool Testing
✔ Food Sensitivities & Testing
✔ Acne
✔ Female & Male Hormone Balancing
✔ Plant-Based, Paleo, Ancestral Diets
✔ Candida Overgrowth
✔ Eco-Conscious Diets
As a Nutrition Therapist Master, I’ve spent the last 3 years helping dozens of health-conscious women heal their stubborn adult acne and get rid of embarrassing digestive issues for good.
During this time, I’ve also managed to keep my own skin completely clear and support consistently smooth digestion by implementing my 3-step approach.
By combining holistic nutrition with functional testing, I’ve been able to get my clients their confidence & life back WITHOUT wasting more time & money on approaches that don’t work.
Now, I’m teaching you the same 3-step process I used so you can get clear skin & perfect digestion, too.

Health and Wellness Coach | Functional Nutrition Expert | Certified Change Specialist | Owner, Bloom Health and Wellness LLC
Hi! I am truly excited for the opportunity to meet with you, get to know you and build a trust-filled relationship in a space where you can feel heard and supported. Optimal health and wellness is defined by you! I believe you can achieve balance through many pathways - it is your journey.
Health coaches are behavior change experts that help you create sustainable changes in the way you think, your daily habits and your lifestyle choices. As you can imagine, your journey is unique!
My commitment to you is to support you, listen and help you identify achievable goals that you can integrate into your lifestyle. I can also help you develop problem solving skills and learn how to navigate our unhealthy world.
I genuinely believe that it is important to help clients identify the cause/s that are contributing to you feeling as though you are not well, and focus on those root causes not simply label them.
My professional and personal experiences are vast, although all rooted in healthcare. I am certain they all prepared me to work with you. My career path began as an Echocardiographer. I jumped at the chance to lead highly effective teams in the education, change management, human resources and corporate spaces. During the years I climbed the corporate ladder, I was a student, wife, divorced mother, friend and a advocate for my son that was born with a rare craniofacial syndrome. To say I am a work in progress at balancing life and my self-care is an understatement. Like many career women, I lived with stress consuming my health for years without knowing.
Being a part of someone’s wellness journey is my passion and a sacred and humbling responsibility that I do not take lightly. It is truly an honor. I believe we all deserve a life of vitality and energy and we have the potential to create it for ourselves. Sometimes we need a little help from a coach.
If you experience any issues booking a session or have questions, my email is wellnesscoaching.heather@gmail.com. I don't love social media, however, happy to connect with you on IG at https://www.instagram.com/bloom.healthcoach/
Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Nutrition Therapy Practitioner, Personal Trainer
Hi, I'm Jaci Salley, a Holistic Nutritionist and Personal Trainer dedicated to helping you achieve balance through whole, natural foods and exercise. My journey in holistic nutrition and wellness coaching has fueled my passion for empowering others to take charge of their health.
I believe in a holistic approach to well-being, blending proper nutrition with exercise to foster a healthy, balanced lifestyle. My coaching emphasizes the importance of adding beneficial habits while gently replacing less healthy ones, focusing on food, fitness, relationships, careers, and spirituality.
My core philosophy centers around the idea that fresh, local, organic, and GMO-free foods are essential for optimal nutrition and wellness. I aim to educate you on how balancing carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals can keep your body functioning at its best.
On a personal note, I love exploring farmer’s markets, spending quality time with loved ones, and staying active. I make it a point to incorporate some form of exercise into each day, whether it's beach volleyball, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), strength training, hiking, or cardio. Creating fresh meals with local, organic ingredients is a true joy for me.

Nutritionist, Herbal Coach and Assistant Professor of Nutrition
My name is Megan and I have been in the industry of nutrition, herbal medicine and education for the last ten years.

In addition, I currently teach for the Nutrition Therapy Institute in Denver, Colorado and have also worked as an assistant professor of nutrition, anatomy and physiology for the past three years.

Welcome to my page.
For over 20 years I’ve served thousands as a Coaching Professional focusing on life issues, emotional energy management, and real estate sales performance. My mission has been to help my clients achieve their personal and professional goals. During the span of those 20 years, I became aware of the changes taking place in my body, but like most people in their 50’s, 60’s and 70’s I chalked it up to the inevitable issues of the aging process. I was suffering from hypertension, borderline high cholesterol, gout, and random pain throughout my body that I later learned was due to inflammation. For every issue, I was given another prescription. Through education and a conscious and determined change in nutrition, exercise, and mindset I am elated to report that as of my 77th birthday I have been able to significantly adjust and even eliminate several of my prescriptions and never felt more energized.
Recently, I’ve added a critical addition to my coaching practice, that of a certified health and wellness coach. The essence of my work is to educate and facilitate self-growth and wellness by helping my clients identify the core challenges and setbacks in their life so that they can overcome them with confidence.
Today I partner with the Luminary Wellness Group offering DNA and Epigenetic Body scans and report interpretation for clients seeking to explore the roots of various health issues.
My clients are inspired individuals endeavoring to attain healthy thriving lives and well-being, free of preventable disease, disability, injury, and premature death, those whose goal is to promote healthy development, healthy behaviors, and well-being across life stages.
