In response to the increasing impact of chronic disease, infertility, and pregnancy complications in reproductive age women between the ages of 15 and 49, the Pregnancy Subcommittee of the Women’s Health Member Interest Group of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine developed the “Lifestyle Medicine Toolkit for Reproductive-age Women.”
The purpose of this toolkit is to provide education and resources on the six pillars of lifestyle medicine to improve the overall health of women in the reproductive years, with a special emphasis on those who are considering or at risk of pregnancy, in an effort to reverse or improve chronic diseases prior to conception, improve pregnancy outcomes, and reduce infertility.

Hey y'all! My name is Melyssa with a WHY, lifestyle medicine coach with over 15 years of experience with behavior modification. I wrote my book, Healthy Living Doesn’t Have to SUCK, to teach people how to forget the fads and create a healthy lifestyle that lasts!
After years of my own personal experience with yo-yo dieting and fitness fads, I finally discovered the power of engaging in health and wellness coaching as a way to overcome all of the other typical, short-lived programs. As a lifelong science geek, the method to my madness incorporates a multidisciplinary, evidence-based approach stemming from lifestyle medicine, positive psychology, and acceptance and commitment coaching.
So if you're looking for a coach that is classy, sassy, and a bit badass-y... Then you're in the right place!
