Ep. 212 Navigating Postpartum, Hypothyroidism & Self-Advocacy: Coach Whitney’s Health Journey

We're so excited to share another incredible coach here at Vital Spark with you Coach Whitney!

Coach Whitney joined our team last summer and she came to us with a ton of experience as a coach with 2 years of online coaching and 4 years of in-person training experience.

She’s helped hundreds of women transform their bodies. As a pre and postnatal specialist and women's coaching specialist, along with experience working with a lot of perimenopausal clients, she has an impressive resume.⁣

⁣But she isn’t just a powerhouse coach, she has been in the shoes of so many of you!⁣ After sadly losing her mom to breast cancer at a young age, Whit turned her pain into purpose and fell in love with understanding women’s health holistically.⁣ Then once she found herself postpartum and with a hypothyroidism diagnosis, she found herself diving even deeper into her own health to prove first-hand that no diagnosis or circumstance has to hold you back from reaching your goals! ⁣

She lost 20lbs and regained her energy, and is now thriving as a mom to 2-year-old Emma and baby Brooklyn, living with her husband and dogs outside of Asheville, NC.⁣

I’m so excited to finally have Whit joining us on the podcast so you all can hear a bit about her story, learn from her experiences, and see why she is such an impressive and loved coach here at Vital Spark.

I personally think that Whit is simultaneously one of the sweetest and mentally toughest people I know. In the time that I’ve known her I’ve watched her overcome hardships personally, and always doing so with a smile on her face, ready to share what she is grateful for and still show up and give her clients her all.
