Professional experience: 13 years         

Chanci writes, coaches and speaks about freedom and love. Freedom from the chaos of an unmanaged mind and one’s disconnection from their body, and love, the deepest kind of love, for yourself, your body and for the gift of food.

Chanci’s journey to her career in healing began at a young age when she witnessed her mom and grandma struggling with mental health and disordered eating issues. She felt saddened by the deep level of body hatred and depression that she was surrounded by and wanted to be part of the solution for others who struggle.

After graduation, Chanci studied psychology with a particular interest in emotional eating and eating disorders. However, one night while volunteering on the distress line, the caller took his life by suicide. This threw Chanci for a loop and she decided to change her academic focus to education with a minor in educational psychology which seemed to be a much ‘safer’ career at the time. Yet, Chanci’s calling couldn’t be denied and ten years later she immersed herself in the study of holistic nutrition and wellness coaching.

At this time, however, she was in a deeply failing marriage, had a toddler with a brain tumour, a challenging 4-year-old, a new-born, and was sadly struggling with her own eating disorder. Through her studies, she was able to learn tools, and skills and was blessed to have her own coaches support her toward emotional wellness and freedom which strengthened Chanci’s resolve to give back and help others.

To equip herself with the best tools, wisdom and knowledge Chanci studied Life and Weight Loss Coaching at The Life Coach School. She also deepened her skills by earning the certification as an Embodiment Coach which she feels serves her clients on a deeper level than mindset alone ever could. Chanci has also completed a diploma in Holistic Nutrition and earned her credentials as a Return to Food Coach and Culinary Nutrition Expert.

Now, Chanci’s pleasure and passion is holistically supporting her clients in their own healing so they can live their most radiant, whole and fulfilling lives! Her work is rooted in love and compassion, and she can’t think of a better vocation than being a guiding light for others to find the same freedom she has.

In her downtime you can find Chanci in the forest or on the boat exploring the beautiful West Coast shoreline, foraging for mushrooms, playing with her dog, Tucker, and hosting her podcast called It Tastes Like Freedom…which is definitely work but is also very much soul nourishing at the same time.
