Who I Help
In my years working in orthopedics, I saw the same story over and over—active adults sidelined by pain and degeneration that could’ve been prevented. Traditional care often jumps straight to medications or surgery in time-capped 10-minute visits, without adequate time for the education, strategy, and support people really need to stay active and well.
That’s why I created a proactive path for you.
I help motivated adults who want to stay active, independent, minimize pain, and continue doing what they love—whether that’s running, hiking, playing pickleball, or simply moving with ease. My approach is preventative, personalized, and backed by science, focusing on reducing inflammation through movement and nutrition, building strength, mental resilience and improving how you feel from the inside out.
This isn’t about restriction or rigid plans—it’s about taking smart action now to avoid the slow creep of arthritis and joint degeneration later, so you can live well for years to come.
  Is this you?
-
You want to stay active—but your joints aren’t keeping up.Â
 You’ve started noticing nagging joint stiffness or discomfort during workouts, after long walks, or when getting up in the morning. It’s subtle now, but you’re wondering if it’s the start of something bigger.
-
You’re worried about what’s coming.Â
You’ve seen friends or family go through arthritis, surgery, or constant pain—and you’re not willing to let that be your future. You’re looking for a smart, science-backed way to take care of your body before symptoms spiral.
-
You’re active, but starting to feel the wear and tear.Â
Whether it’s running, cycling, pickleball, or gym workouts—you’re feeling the twinges, tightness, or slow recovery. You don’t want to give it up… you just want the tools to keep doing it better and longer.
-
You’re done with short-term medication fixes—you’re ready for a long-term solution.Â
You’re popping Ibuprofen or Advil knowing these medications come with serious long term side effects. While they can offer temporary relief, they don’t address the root cause. Now, you’re looking for a sustainable, preventative approach that supports your body long-term—rooted in science, not just symptom management.
-
You want a plan built around your life—not a one-size-fits-all approach.Â
You don’t have time for cookie-cutter programs or extreme overhauls. You want personalized guidance, accountability, and strategies that fit your lifestyle and goals—so you can keep moving, aging well, and doing what you love.

 If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. And you're in the right place.

I’m grateful that this course helped me find a way to better manage my pain after trying a million other things.

“Megan was great. She was great with her suggestions/hand outs and she always followed up with us and was always available for questions.”Â
Shelly D.
I would highly recommend her course to those wanting to make healthier changes.
“Megan’s course, shareables, tips and recipes are wonderful and very easy to implement into a very travel heavy routine. I loved learning how to read labels, make better choices and learning that making one swap at a time helps rather than changing your entire routine all at once. It really does make all the difference in the world for me. I would highly recommend her course to those wanting to make healthier changes a bite size at a time.”
After years of working in orthopedics, I saw patients cycle through prescriptions, injections, and surgeries—often after the damage had already been done. With a more proactive approach, many could have avoided those outcomes entirely. Early lifestyle changes in nutrition, mindset, and movement can dramatically improve joint health, reduce inflammation, and preserve mobility. Don’t wait until pain forces you to make a change—take action now to stay active, energized, and pain-free for the long run.
