5 VITAL SIGNS OF SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION
|
Courtney Marchesani, CEO of Inspired Potentials, is an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and Counselor. Courtney focuses on natural, holistic, health care solutions which support individuals making nutrition and lifestyle changes to improve their health.
Courtney has worked as a Mental Health Practitioner in social services for over ten years, as a writer/publisher, and an administrator. Her career in health began after graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Montana. She worked in Seattle, Washington in mental health, affordable housing advocacy, and prevention of homelessness. While working toward her Integrative Health Coach certification through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, she apprenticed with herbalist Joyce Netishen in Olympia, WA.
Courtney specializes in the often hidden health struggles of Highly Sensitive People (HSP). HSP's were first written about by Dr. Elaine Aron in her book The Highly Sensitive Person. Often overwhelmed by the intensity and stimulation from the world, HSP's make up roughly 15 to 20% of the population. Because this overwhelming sensory overload has a direct impact on our health, Courtney designs health protocols with natural and holistic therapies which increase creativity, reduce symptoms and help with relationships.
From her advocacy work Courtney has received awards for outstanding service in mental health, affordable housing activism, and progressive leadership. She is the author of, The Energetic Psychopath: How to Protect Yourself and Recover from Violence and The Fifth Chamber. You will find her articles in Om Times Magazine, The Huffington Post, and Elephant Journal.

My Training
I trained as a Health Coach at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York City. It is the largest nutrition school in the world. At IIN I learned over 100 different nutritional theories. My education also gave me a rounded knowledge in holistic health, stress management, and functional medicine by the world's leading health and wellness experts. My favorite teachers at IIN were Dr. Christiane Northrup, Dr. Bernie Siegel, Dr. Andrew Weil, and Dr. Lissa Rankin. One thing that connects these four amazing healers is this: they believe the power of healing is within us, never outside us.
