Amanda Schuh, health coach, Brandwein Institute for Health and Nutrition

Amanda Schuh, Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach

Amanda holds certificates from the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, Institute of Integrative Nutrition and has a Bachelor's degree in Sociology. She loves to bake healthy treats, spend time with her son and husband, read, get out into nature, and drink tea!

She knows firsthand what it takes to dive deep into healing and create a healthy and balanced lifestyle. For about 16 years, she suffered from a myriad of chronic symptoms such as POTS, Dysautonomia, leaky gut, migraines, fatigue, brain fog, dizziness, nausea - the list goes on and on. She was told many times by countless doctors that there was nothing she could do to improve her health.

Unwilling to accept that, she persevered until she discovered functional medicine, which was the key player in helping her dive deeper and is ultimately where she began to feel better. Having been so positively impacted by her journey to healing, she has been called to help others transform their health and to help them discover ways to find balance and deeper healing in their lives. She truly believes that every experience we have in our lives is meant to teach us a lesson. She also believes that food is medicine and that it's meant to be enjoyed and not be restrictive. Her favorite saying is to, “eat the food you love that loves you back,” and she truly stands by that!

When working with Amanda, she will help you to discover your passions and strengths and how you can use them to achieve your desired health goals!

Jill Alter, Integrative And Functional Certified Health Coach

As a Certified Integrative and Functional Health Coach, Jill works with clients showing them how food can be medicine and help them get off the diet roller coaster. With the diet culture being what it is and all of the social media fad diets that are out there, Jill coaches clients in improving their mindset and lifestyle.

She teaches a “whole body” approach and that it’s not about counting calories or macros or measuring food. It’s about making small, realistic changes that are sustainable.

Jill enjoys living a healthy lifestyle and staying involved in my community. My focus for the last 20 years has been helping raise awareness towards early detection against Cancer and raising money towards research for the American Cancer Society and Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation.
