‍ If you feel stuck, that’s not failure. It’s Imbalance.

However you’re feeling right now, it’s real, and it’s not permanent.

Let’s find your balance!

I'm Samuel Shadman, a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach. I guide people who struggle with stress, cravings, and low energy to live happy, healthy and strong lives.

Working together…

Compassion - Acceptance - Partnership - Empowerment

Maybe you've been diagnosed with a health condition. Your doctor has prescribed a diet, medication, and lifestyle changes and you just don't know where to begin. Perhaps overwhelm, anxiety, and exhaustion are simply where you live right now. Or, maybe you’re already in good health and you want to level up. However you arrive, you'll be met with acceptance and compassion.

Every journey begins with a conversation. We'll talk about what's going on, what you've already tried, and whether working together feels right for both of us. No obligation — just clarity, and the first step toward reclaiming your happiness, health & strength.

What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is a personalized, root-cause approach to healthcare. Rather than simply treating symptoms, it asks why they're happening in the first place. Instead of viewing the body as a collection of separate organs, Functional Medicine sees it as one connected system, where your lifestyle, genetics, and environment all work together to shape and balance your health.

Why work with a Functional Medicine Health Coach?

What sets working with a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach (FMCHC) apart from other health coaches is the framework we use to view your body, and our ability to bridge the gap between complex doctor protocols and your daily habits. While all certified health coaches focus on habit formation and accountability, an FMCHC is explicitly trained to view your health through a root-cause lens. We see your body as one connected system, shaped by your lifestyle, genetics, and environment while eliciting intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and personal empowerment to help you realize the healthiest version of yourself.
