Former BMX Athlete.
Brain Tumor Survivor.
Health Coach.
Josh Perry
Raleigh, NC
www.joshperrybmx.com
I’m a former professional BMX athlete, motivational speaker, and holistic health coach who’s fought four brain tumors. My passion and motivation for living the best life stems from the discovery of a genetic predisposition to accumulating tumors, a realization that sparked an investigative journey into researching the health, performance, and longevity of the human brain. As a result, I follow a ketogenic diet, and since adopting this lifestyle paradigm, the growth of my tumors has ceased leaving me feeling better and more fulfilled than ever before!
I launched a health coaching business to inspire and help others to improve their brain health so they can transform into the most successful versions of themselves. I’ve also teamed up with the Athlete Recovery Fund to raise awareness and funds for a nonprofit BMX/wellness event called the Brainy BMX Stunt Shows, which focuses on raising direct funds for direct patient care through education, sport, and inspiration.

Author + Entrepreneur.
Health Coach.
Author + Entrepreneur.
Founder of Mujer Holística.
Maria Jose Flaque
Global Nomad
www.mujerholistica.com
Before becoming a Health Coach I felt like I was living without a purpose, I had a lot of anxiety and I was in automatic mode, just going through life without meaning. I desired a change, but had no idea how to begin. Then, in 2011, I found IIN and my life changed completely. I now live a life of purpose, with passion and surrounded by beautiful people. I would not be where I am had I not enrolled in IIN and pursued my career as a Health Coach.
I am the founder of one of the biggest Spanish speaking wellness platforms, Mujer Holística, where I inspire women to connect with their spirituality and to live a life of abundance. Every day, my work reaches millions of women around the world and my books are bestsellers in multiple countries. But the best part of my work is not the external success or recognition. It is the women I get to share my journey with each day, the amazing community that Mujer Holística holds space for. I feel so blessed to be able to impact the world in a positive way, doing the work that I love.
My career as a Health Coach also allows me to work online and travel the world as a nomad, working remotely from places like Bali, Portugal or Costa Rica, something that seemed impossible before IIN. I truly believe that you can create the reality that you live in. My journey as a Health Coach has given me endless blessings and has allowed me to live an amazing life. I share IIN with everyone I know because I believe this program can transform many lives, not only mine.

VP turned Yogi.
I.AM.YOU. Founder.
Detox to Retox.
Lauren Imparato
New York, NY
www.LAURENIMPARATO.com
Prior to enrolling at Integrative Nutrition, I worked on the Wall Street trading floor at Morgan Stanley. As a serious athlete, I always scoffed at yoga’s hippie ineffectiveness, but initially tried it as a way to diversify my 60 miles of running a week. I quickly got addicted, and after few years of daily practice and study, I began teaching friends yoga and meditation for free.
Soon, colleagues and friends began asking for nutritional help. Then it hit me - there was not a lens for wellness that was effective and realistic, one that understood working hard and playing hard, as well as the extreme stress of office life and modern living. I decided to quit my job to start I.AM.YOU., the first ever 360 degree lens for wellness based on yoga, nourishment, mindset, and music and wrote a Best Selling book with Penguin Randomhouse, RETOX. I have since exited the business, and I am now consulting wellness businesses and entrepreneurs full time.
We all have different bodies that change throughout the phases of life. Integrative Nutrition allowed me the freedom to learn about various nutritional theories and apply them as I saw fit for my clients and myself. Integrative Nutrition gave me the confidence to stand by the decision my body was telling me to make. IIN is about the freedom of doing what works for you.

Best-Selling Ayurveda Author.
Host of the Highest Self Podcast.
Ancient Soul in a Modern Body.
Sahara Rose
Los Angeles, CA
www.iamsahararose.com
I didn't become interested in health coaching because it was fun or hip, I did it because I had to. Dealing with my own health issues, inclusive of digestion, hormonal, skeletal and chronic insomnia/ anxiety, I signed up for IIN so I could learn more about nutrition. Soon, that desire to heal myself became a desire to heal others and I launched my career as a Holistic Health Coach, focusing on Ayurveda.
Since then, I've gone on to write two best-selling Ayurveda books nationwide, Eat Feel Fresh: A Plant-Based Ayurvedic Cookbook and Idiot's Guide to Ayurveda, both with forewords by Deepak Chopra, who called me, “a leading voice for the millennial generation into the new paradigm shift."
I believe health is so much more than the physical, and transcends into the mental and spiritual. The purpose of health is to use that radiance to share your gifts with the planet. To share more of my spiritual interests and stories of top authors and healers around the world, I launched the Highest Self Podcast, which is now ranked as the #1 top podcast in the spirituality category on iTunes. I share the belief with IIN that our primary foods are not what we put into our mouths but what we put into our souls.
I am eternally grateful for all that has happened to me because it's allowed me to serve in a deeper and more meaningful way, and of course, find the gift that is Ayurveda.

Self-Educated Healer.
Stress and Anxiety Terminator.
Health and Lifestyle Strategist.
Kara Snyder
Hurley, NY
www.vitalcorpswellness.com
Through much of my early-mid 20s, I struggled with IBS exacerbated by chronic stress. My doctor gave me a diagnosis while drinking directly from a 2-liter bottle of Diet Coke and offered me a couple of prescriptions. Not ready to go the prescription route, I hit the New York Public Library and took classes to figure out what I could do to eliminate the need to triangulate the closest bathroom everywhere I went. Teeny change after teeny change, I got healthier and happier. Others noticed and wanted to know what I did.
I filled up my professional toolbox in a big way at IIN. I knew that we are all individuals, so what helped me turn my health around wouldn't necessarily work for others. The curriculum offers a multitude of lenses to critically think about foundational health and wellness. The training also taught me a lot about listening - deep listening - from a place of really seeking to understand and connect. It taught me how impactful that can be for clients and the successful women - from astronauts to change agents to artists - I interview on my podcast, Le vital corps Salon.
Of course, there are always challenges to being a small business owner, but this work allows me to create a vital corps of healthy, assertive go-getters in the world. What could be better than that?

Passionate Dietitian.
Venezuela Native.
Passionate Dietitian.
YOURDIETMETHOD Founder.
Andrea Castellanos
Miami, Florida
www.yourdietmethod.com
Being a woman in Venezuela, the most beauty-obsessed country in the world is challenging. The pressure to conform to an impossible standard of beauty was, and is, incredible. I tried every diet on the planet, every pill on the market, and every trick in the books. I was on the verge of an eating disorder and very confused about my emotional state and body image.
It was not until I stopped obsessing over my weight and focused on my wellbeing that I understood what worked for me. After working in a clinical environment studying patient’s actions and reactions, I realized that people's bodies, metabolism and habits are different in many ways. The Institute for Integrative Nutrition taught me that the one-size-fits all dietary approach simply doesn’t work. Knowing this inspired me to create "YourDietMethod".
My mission is to assist and teach people proper nutrition suited for their lives so they never need to diet again. I want girls to be comfortable with themselves, no matter what their environment is. I want women to feel sexy, no matter what their body type is. I want to inspire people to become the healthiest version of themselves.

My life changed overnight 10 years ago. I was an athlete pursuing a career in professional golf but was suddenly struck down with an illness that left me bed-bound for two years and housebound for the next four years. I discovered a passion for food and nutrition throughout my housebound stage and decided to start my blog, Healthy Living James. I also decided to study with IIN to further my knowledge and use that to better my recipes and health. Now I am a full-time food blogger working with incredible brands and doing a job I absolutely love.
Creating quick and easy gluten-, dairy-, egg- and refined sugar–free recipes, most of which are plant-based, and sharing them online to a worldwide audience. My passion is inspiring others to cook more from home with simple ingredients.

Holistic Career Coach,
YouTuber, and Speaker.
Pancreas Tumor Survivor.
Joy Randolph
London, UK
www.joyrandolph.com/
When I discovered IIN through graduates who wrote the wellness books I was reading, I felt I found my ticket to making that career change. In addition to IIN having the only program I found with really engaging TED Talk–style lessons on health, they had some of the most renowned teachers in the industry and provided training on how to start a health coaching practice so I could change careers and follow my passion.
Not long after I graduated and opened my practice, I was diagnosed with a rare tumor on my pancreas and had major surgery to remove the tumor and multiple digestive organs. The surgery came with risks of lifelong complications. I used everything I learned at IIN about bio-individuality and healing, and as a result, I not only healed myself, but I’ve had no tumor recurrence, a healthy pregnancy and baby, and I’m as healthy as I could be.
I now work as a holistic career coach, where I help women discover their gifts, fulfill their purpose, and create a joyful life. Learning about primary food at IIN helped me see how our health, happiness, and fulfillment aren’t just influenced by nutrition; they’re also influenced by our career, spirituality, and how we take care of our mind and body. This has been the biggest inspiration for my teachings, and through my YouTube videos, online courses, and public speaking, my work has reached over 1.5 million people and I feel so lucky to do what I do.

Founder + CEO of Purely Elizabeth.
Elizabeth Stein
Boulder, CO
www.purelyelizabeth.com
IIN definitely changed the course of my life. Before attending the program, I worked for a handbag company in NYC and probably would have stayed the course in that industry. IIN gave me the confidence and belief that I was in control of my life and could go after my dreams. There is no doubt that I would not have started Purely Elizabeth, had I not had my experience at IIN.
I am now the founder and CEO of Purely Elizabeth, an all-natural and organic food company. I started the company in October 2009. We focus on using the most innovative, nutrient-dense ingredients on the market like chia, quinoa, amaranth, kaniwa, coconut sugar and coconut oil, while making the products taste absolutely delicious. We recently released the first Probiotic Granola on the market and a Grain-Free Granola! The past seven years since starting Purely Elizabeth has truly been life changing on so many levels.
I love that the industry we are in truly has an effect on people’s lives. It’s pretty rewarding to hear feedback that our products have helped customers live a healthier lifestyle. It’s also amazing to be surrounded by such like-minded individuals. The industry is filled with passionate people who are happy in what they are doing.

“Downshift” Expert.
Autoimmune Disease Champion.
“Downshift” Expert.
Blogger, YouTuber, and Social Media Influencer.
Lisa Bryan
Irvine, CA
www.downshiftology.com
A few years before I pursued my IIN certification I was diagnosed with four autoimmune diseases. In my quest to reverse those symptoms and take control of my health, I completely revamped my diet and lifestyle by adopting a whole foods, gluten-free diet and prioritizing self-care, sleep and stress-reduction. One year after doing so, most of my autoimmune symptoms vanished. I pursued health coaching as a way to help others like me and inspire them with a back-to-basics "downshifted" approach - whole foods + healthy living.
I am now a full time blogger, YouTuber and social media influencer. I focus on wholesome gluten-free food and inspire others to take life "down a notch". There is no “one path” when it comes to health coaching and inspiring others - it's all about creating the business that works best for you.

Medical Doctor and Lifestyle Medicine Specialist.
Dr. Shaunna Menard
Kelowna, BC
www.drshaunna.com
Before IIN, I was a full time medical doctor (subspecialty ultrasound and interventional radiologist). I was extremely busy, married with 4 sons and wasn’t looking for another career. However, I was looking for a better way to fulfill my mission to help people live their healthiest and happiest lives. I was keenly aware of the role stress and emotions play and knew this was a key component in lasting health and happiness.
Since enrolling in IIN my life has changed in such a positive way. I began speaking and doing group workshops for communities, corporations, schools, clinics, hospitals and medical conferences. I became Chair of Public Health shortly after graduating and appeared on breakfast television.
I’ve blended my medical background and IIN coaching to work as a lifestyle medicine specialist. I speak to audiences and coach both groups and 1:1, globally. I love the connection with people. As a traditionally trained MD, I am fascinated by the power of the mind and mind:body medicine.

In 2005, I lost my 47-year-old mother to a rare form of liver cancer.

Robyn Youkilis
New York, NY
www.robynyoukilis.com
Right after graduating from IIN, I created a successful health coaching practice and cooking show to teach others how to truly nourish their bodies. Almost 10 years later, I still wake up every morning energized and excited to see clients, shoot videos, and appear on national television as the go-to wellness expert.
I’m a health coach and offer a mix of online and live programs. I work with clients doing 1-on-1 coaching, have group coaching programs, and go at your own pace online health coaching courses. I work with a select number of brands and companies as a wellness expert or spokesperson. I’m also an author - my first book, Go With Your Gut, was published in 2016 and my second book, Thin From Within, came out in February 2018.
My approach looks at all areas of your life. Your body wants you to feel good, and the best way to reach your natural weight is to keep your gut flora happy while balancing the other parts of life that “weigh” you down. Together, these two forces will have you looking and feeling fabulous.

Enrolling in IIN marked a major (and unexpected) turning point in my life! I had spent years allowing myself to get so wound up in my career and day-to-day life that focusing on myself just wasn’t a priority. Though I achieved goal after goal, it somehow seemed as though I was just always trying to keep up...and my body was struggling to keep up with what I was putting it through.
That’s when my interest in wellness began, out of pure necessity, to try to break the cycle I was in. Yet, along with the exponential shifts in my health and perspective from the simple changes I was making came a true sense of empowerment unlike anything I had experienced before! There was no question in my mind that I not only had to learn more but had to find a way to help others find that same sense of empowerment; investing in IIN is what helped me make that dream a reality.
Now, years later, I’ve traded my career in finance for spending 100% of my time encouraging women to reframe the way they look at their health and prioritize their mental and physical well-being. I consult with clients across geographies to assist them in developing their own individualized brands of wellness by taking small, progressive steps to optimize their lifestyles and find their equilibrium.
I also work with women’s groups, speak in corporate settings, create healthy yet delicious recipes, write for several platforms (including my own!), and am always looking for new and interesting ways to convince more women that, no matter what your various existing roles and responsibilities, there’s always a way to make wellness accessible...and that it’s always worth making that investment!
