About

Hi, I'm Celina! I am a Certified Health Coach and a proud mamma of two amazing children who inspire me to change the world each and every day. I am on mission to help women and children improve their health and wellness. We live in a society that has been misled and suffering from poor diet, lack of movement, chronic stress and extreme toxicity. Along with these come the rising infertility rates. I believe that NOW is the only time we have to get up and fight for the amazing body and mind that we have been blessed with. I have had my own journey with personal health challenges involving relentless digestive disorders (battling IBS, ulcers, acid reflux and heartburn), hormone imbalance (endometriosis and migraines), Fibromyalgia (chronic fatigue, endless pain, and depression), heavy metal toxicity, and multiple neck injuries. I've had a birth experience that could have gone much differently (for me and my son) and a redeeming birth experience with my daughter. Through this, I have learned the importance of taking care of my mind, body and spirit to regain health using alternative health and nutrition. I am also empowered to support others in their journey of welcoming motherhood and raising a healthy family. I am passionate about teaching nutrition, mind and body balance, family health and wellness (prior to conception, during pregnancy, and postpartum) and providing newborn care. I have a background in science from my original pursuit of a nursing degree. Multiple health challenges broke my pursuit not once but twice. This is when I surrendered to God's will and followed the path chosen for me. New to the big city, as I learned about healthier food options and natural health, I was led to continue my education through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. Shortly after beginning IIN, I began a position at a health and wellness store where I provided health consultation and supplement support. After 3 years of health coaching, I felt that I was still missing something in my journey. Soon enough, I was introduced to doula work and the importance of how a doula can optimize your birth experience and support a growing family. This is when I decided to pursue an all-inclusive education with Madriella to become a certified birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and lactation consultant. I also have done continuing education in other areas of health and wellness to help bridge the gap between clients and the health care system to ensure improved health and well-being in every situation. I am HIGHLY motivated to leave a positive impact on the world and its increasing number of unhealthy individuals and will continuously further my education and gain new experiences. With my previous experience, complemented by my dedication to change the world, I hope to surpass your expectations!
