Client Led Coaching
This is about you.
Your health. Your goals.
In ways you choose because they work for you. I’m here to guide you.
Educated Practices
I spent one full year training at Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. I am a certified health coach, not one who only has a certificate. I’m well trained in how to work with you.
Holistic Approach
Mind, body, spirit.
I believe you’re the expert in your body. I’m not going to tell you what I think you need. You tell me what you need, and we’ll go from there.
Personalized Goals with Plans
We tailor your plans to meet your goals based on what works for you, not what someone else told you to do. There are positive ways to achieve all you need to be successful.

About Robin Follette
A few months after turning 50, I fell down a flight of stairs. The physical damage was devastating. A severe concussion, torn rotator cuffs, and a broken pelvis were the worst of my injuries. I’d been at the height of my health and wellness. I’d never felt better or been stronger. Between the fall and menopause, my health went downhill to dangerous depths. I took four prescription medications to keep me going. They masked my symptoms, but they didn’t do anything to cure my health and wellbeing. They kept me sick but made my numbers look good.
Menopause. Some of the things I was told by medical providers were:
*”Hormones don’t matter after menopause.” Brain fog, forgetfulness, lack of energy, and more do in fact matter at any age.
*”It’s age, Robin. This is normal.” I was 54. Women in their 60’s, 70’s…90’s were running circles around me. Age was not my problem.
Functional Medicine
I stopped seeing all but my chiropractor and massage therapist. My health didn’t improve, but it didn’t get worse either. My sister-by-heart, a nurse practitioner who practices functional medicine, PUSHED me to find a functional medicine practitioner. I’ll be grateful to her for her persistence for the rest of my life. I spent from age 57 to 59 getting my hormones and gut health on track. I was able to stop taking the four prescriptions that masked my symptoms because I healed those issues. It was extremely difficult. I had a list of foods I was intolerant to, and that’s all the information in my toolbox. It was a lot to figure out on my own. I needed a functional medicine health coach, but at the time, I didn’t know there is such a thing.
I entered massage therapy school at 59, and graduated when I was 60. I was by far the oldest in class. The youngest, a vivacious, brilliant young woman of 20 told me, “You remind me of my grandmother! She’s my favorite person!” I took it as a sincere compliment.
I didn’t feel 50 again when I turned 60, but I didn’t feel old, worn out, and run down anymore. I wasn’t sick. Now, at 60+, I’m working my way back to feeling like I did a decade ago. In the middle of my work, my sister-by-heart suggested that I could become a functional medicine certified health coach. My respect for her is deep, and I took what she said to heart. I will graduate as a functional medicine certified health coach on August 31, 2025. I’m becoming the health coach I needed.
Coaches have struggles, too. I’ll always be mindful of my weight, glucose, and physical activity. Being mindful, meditating, and eating real, whole, nutritious food is an ongoing project. Do I love working out on the elliptical? Sometimes, certainly not always. I crave French fries fried in beef tallow or duck fat – so I have them once in a while. I sleep as well as I can, take the supplements I’ve tested for and know I need, and I sometimes drink too much coffee and not enough water. I’m human.
I’m here. I’m listening. I hear you.
Robin helped me develop a movement plan that works for me. I walk in the morning before work, around the parking lot at lunch, or in the evening after supper almost every day of the week. I’ve lost 12 pounds and my blood pressure is down a few points already.

I worked with Robin while she was a student, and the differences I see in myself are surprising. She helped me become mindful in my daily life.
Amanda N
About the same time I was realizing how negative I’d become, Robin asked for volunteers to work with while she was in coaching school. My outlook is so much more positive and happier these days!
