Your host

I'm Heather Holker

Microbiome Health Specialist, Exercise Physiologist, Sports Nutritionist, and my favorite title: Mother of Six.

I've spent nearly three decades studying how the body comes into balance, and I've seen what becomes possible when it does. Here I take what I've learned, from the research and from raising my own family, and make it simple enough to use today.

As I always say: Body Balanced. Life Changed.™
