Nows the time to take control of your fitness and your life by joining a virtual support and accountability group.
HOW AN ACCOUNTABILITY GROUP WORKS
As new moms it can be so hard to find the time to focus on yourself again. My accountability groups make it much easier with 30 minute at home workouts, clean eating meal plan, superfoods shake and support of other new moms!
My groups are full of women all figuring out how to balance work, family, and somehow take care of themselves in the mix! We check in with one another daily, share recipes, encourage one another through our slip ups, and celebrate our victories together! The group is run through a private app so only you and the other women in the group will see your conversations. Being apart of our community is truly where the magic happens and what separates my program from others you may have tried. I look forward to talking with you and seeing how best I can help!

I'm a wife, a mommy to 3 wonderful hockey-loving boys, a Zumba Instructor and and OIL LOVER!
When I started with oils I was super skeptical, however my family needed help. Regular meds (or their side effects) were just not working for us. So I gave oils a chance and our lives completely changed.... and before you think that I'm a crazy oil lady (which I am lol) please know that I'm not against Western Medicine. However I have learned that Essential Oils are nature's medicine gifted to us. They have been used around the world for centuries and now I use them in my little world to keep my kiddo's as healthy as possible, to treat my hubby's digestive issues, to regulate my crazy mommy mood swings (I'm not the only one - right?!?!?), I even use them for my doggies' freak out sessions during fire works! We really use them for almost everything at home!!! If there's an issue, I have an oil for that!

Nurse Audra is passionate about sharing her knowledge with others through both 1:1 coaching with clients as well as in a Facebook group that is the Keto Hero home with over 450 heroes (the largest in Columbus). You can join her in the Keto Prescribed group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/KetoPrescribed/
Nurse Audra received her Master’s degree in nursing from THE Ohio State University and is currently pursuing a doctorate in nursing with a psychiatric nurse practitioner certification, while coaching clients and designing life-changing programs for Keto Prescribed. Our desire is to help you discover your healthiest you in body, mind and spirit.

I am a mom to two young boys on earth with us, and one heavenly baby. We've also got two fur babies at home. I am also a wife. I work full time outside of the home, and joining Wink Naturals was a way for me to find my own sense of self again. I have always had a deep connection to other women, especially moms. I know motherhood is both the hardest, but most beautiful thing we will do. And at times motherhood can feel lonely. I want to use my opportunity to help other women, especially moms to find and be their best self! I know that it takes a village, and at time we have a hard time seeing the best in ourselves, and that is when our community reminds us of our true beauty! I want to motivated, educate, inspire, and empower women in our community!
