Michele Schroeder
NBC-HWC · CTNC · Autoimmune SpecialistMichele's Story
Michele was at her ideal weight, exercising regularly, and eating a healthy diet — and yet something was deeply wrong. She stopped being able to recover from exercise. Her energy collapsed. She experienced pain, anxiety attacks, rashes, poor digestion, debilitating fatigue, and brain fog that wouldn't lift.
When a dermatologist finally diagnosed her with an autoimmune condition, it hit hard. Her aunt had been diagnosed with the same condition just three years earlier — and her health was on a steep decline. Michele was devastated, but refused to accept that this was simply her future.
She began making nutritional changes and found significant relief — but full healing only came when she also addressed past trauma, unhealthy relationships, and her mindset. Her body began to heal. She got off medications. She stopped the flare-ups. And she realized her journey was far more common than she had thought.
That realization became her purpose. Getting well shouldn't take years of discouragement, hills and valleys, and going it alone. Michele's process is faster, more comprehensive, and guided by someone who has been exactly where you are.
Areas of Focus
Michele defines nutrition as anything that feeds you — physically, mentally, or spiritually. Her coaching addresses all three simultaneously.
Discover what is triggering your flare-ups and build a comprehensive, natural protocol to reduce inflammation and restore immune balance.
Address the diet, lifestyle, and stress patterns that disrupt your hormones — supporting conditions like Hashimoto's, PCOS, perimenopause, and adrenal fatigue.
Resolve the root causes of weight loss resistance — insulin sensitivity, gut health, sleep, and metabolism — rather than just restricting calories.
Identify food sensitivities, heal gut permeability, and restore a balanced microbiome through personalized nutrition and lifestyle changes.
Address the nutritional, inflammatory, and emotional drivers of brain fog — restoring focus, memory, and cognitive sharpness naturally.
Uncover and address the mental and emotional patterns that sabotage physical healing — including past trauma, limiting beliefs, and chronic stress responses.
Build a sustainable, personalized eating plan that reduces inflammation, supports your specific health conditions, and fits your real life.
Optimize sleep quality and recovery patterns — foundational to hormone regulation, immune function, and every other aspect of healing.
Why This Works
Most health coaches work in isolation. Michele works alongside Dr. Justin Lane — meaning your coaching is fully integrated with your functional medicine care.
Your nutrition and supplement protocols are built around your actual functional medicine lab results — not generic guidelines. What works for someone else may not work for you. We build your plan around your biochemistry.
Michele hasn't just studied autoimmune disease and chronic illness — she has lived through it. She understands the frustration of trying everything and seeing nothing change. That perspective shapes every conversation.
Most coaching addresses only diet and exercise. Michele's approach — built on the Transformational Nutrition model — addresses all three dimensions simultaneously. This is why her clients see faster, more lasting results.
You don't just get a health coach — you get a team. Michele works directly with Dr. Lane so your coaching, acupuncture, functional medicine, and supplement protocols are all aligned and working together toward the same goal.
The goal is not to keep you reliant on coaching forever. Michele teaches you to understand your own body, recognize your triggers, and build the skills to stay well long after you've reached your goals.
As a Certified Autoimmune Disease Specialist, Michele has deep expertise in the unique challenges of autoimmune conditions — where triggers, flare patterns, and healing timelines differ significantly from general chronic illness.
The Process
Every client starts with a thorough understanding of where they are, where they want to go, and every obstacle standing in the way. Michele then walks alongside you — guiding, educating, and adjusting as you progress.
A deep dive into your health history, goals, lifestyle, and what has and hasn't worked in the past. No judgment, just listening and understanding.
Working alongside Dr. Lane's functional medicine testing, Michele helps you identify the specific food, lifestyle, emotional, and environmental triggers driving your symptoms.
A custom plan addressing all three dimensions — body (nutrition, movement, sleep), mind (stress, patterns, beliefs), and spirit (purpose, connection, inner wellbeing).
Regular coaching sessions to support, adjust, troubleshoot, and celebrate your progress — with accountability that actually keeps you moving forward.
The end goal is that you know your own body, understand your triggers, and have the tools to stay well for life — without needing a coach forever.
