Holly Doll

Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant, C.H.N.C.™

My name is Holly Doll and I am a Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant™
This quote by John Walters pretty much sums me up:

“The only thing I like better than talking about food is eating”

I work with women who:
- Love their families but crave the balance of “ME” Time

- Hate the pain of being overweight because they have tried every type of diet ever created

- Are overwhelmed with all the nutritional information out there, don’t know where to start but KNOW deep in their hearts, that they want OFF the sugar craving hamster wheel that is wreaking havoc on their mind and body!

- Struggle with symptoms of anxiety and irritability

- Are looking for answers, are ready to take charge and commit because they want to have more energy, be a good role model and ENJOY THEIR LIVES!

I work with them and coach them so they can:
- See the importance of making themselves and their health a priority

- Learn to balance their hormones and blood sugar to set the stage for sustainable weight loss and weight management

- Reduce the symptoms of anxiety and irritability through self care, nutrition and supplementation (if necessary)

- Feel confident in their choices and comfortable with their bodies

I am passionate about health because:

My own health journey really “could” have started so much earlier than it did had I listened to my body and my own intuition. I grew up on a farm and loved being outdoors, but as I got older I lost that connection to my roots. I ended up having a terrible relationship with food that ultimately led to an eating disorder in my early 20’s. I would continue to play the diet game for another decade, until my children were diagnosed with dairy allergies in 2011. I knew then that I had to take a hard look at my own relationship with food and the choices I was making, not only for my family, but for myself….
I felt very anxious, irritable, guilty, exhausted all the time and would often think…. how the hell did I ever get here?! My own health started to decline with continuous respiratory infections, skin issues, anxiety and what I can only describe as chronic fatigue. Frequent trips to my Doctor’s office would end in me leaving with yet another prescription for antibiotics or antidepressants, and most times I would be in tears, because I was told yet again how “normal” it was to have these problems and to feel this way. I don’t recall one conversation regarding possible hormone imbalances, the influence of nutrition, stress management, vitamins, minerals, supplements or exercise. I felt helpless.

I started doing my own research and begin reading labels, questioning ingredients and my interest in nutrition soon become a passion because I saw the changes eating real, whole foods had brought to myself and my family. In 2015, I graduated from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. I bring my devotion for understanding how the body works and discovering the power of foods to my clients each and every day. Through my own journey, I have developed a new relationship with food where fear and restriction do not reside – birthday cake, campfire smores and homemade hamburgers all have a place alongside the greens of course! I firmly believe in the philosophy “Eat to Live” and encourage clients to eat all colors of the rainbow and use their food as a tool to nourish their bodies. I believe in the strength of a whole foods diet using unprocessed foods in a realistic, simple and enjoyable way.
And when I am not working with clients or creating recipes, I can be found at my local yoga studio, walking around my neighborhood or hanging out with my husband, Ryan and our 2 lovely children. I love to volunteer in my children’s classrooms and often get some crazy “food” questions while I am there.

Some facts about me:

1. I grew up on a farm and although I live in a city, I will always be a farm girl at heart! The joy of eating food from my own backyard has never left me. Even though we have a small yard, we plant a garden each year.

2. I used to absolutely HATE vegetables, there are multiple pictures of me in family albums crying with a plate of veggies in front of me. Now, I think I would be crying if I didn’t have veggies on my plate.

3. When I was a teenager I started my day off with a diet coke and a piece of white toast with cheese whiz, so don’t ever let yourself believe that things “can’t” or “won’t” change.

4. I met my husband Ryan online and we have been married for 12 years. When my kids hear people talking about shopping online, they are sure to mention that is how I found their Dad!
