Hi!
I'M ERIKA SMITH

Gut Health Coach

Welcome to my website and thank you for your interest. I'm delighted to have this opportunity to share a little about myself and where I come from. My goal is for you to get to know me better and discover how I can assist you on your journey to improved well-being.

My Story

SCIENTIST, NUTRITIONIST AND GUT HEALTH ENTHUSIAST

I was born and raised on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico, which will always have a special place in my heart. After finishing my first year of college, I relocated to the Midwest, specifically Indiana, which became my home for the next 18 years. I recently started a new chapter and was drawn to the majestic city of Naples. I've rediscovered the security, cleanliness, and order I'd grown accustomed to in the Midwest. Naples provides me with the warm and sunny days I missed as a child, as well as a community full of affectionate, welcoming, and joyful people who remind me of my childhood in Puerto Rico.

​

My educational path led me to Purdue University, where I earned a Biology degree, paving the way for my entry into the healthcare system. Growing up, I saw the impact of health on one's lifestyle directly, due to my family members' experiences with cancer, obesity, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and chronic inflammatory conditions. Many of them did not consider the link between their diets and overall health outcomes. During my degree, I began researching the relationship between lifestyle and wellness, and I've been committed to assisting others in their pursuit of better health and ideal lifestyles ever since.

​

​As a scientist and gut health enthusiast, I have witnessed the transformation that can occur when individuals no longer have to live with gut health issues and instead embrace a balanced and vibrant life.

Say Goodbye to Bad Health Habits!

I wholeheartedly embrace the uniqueness of every individual's journey toward positive health outcomes, recognizing the challenges that come with it.

I firmly believe in the saying, "Where there is a will, there is a way", and understand that a one-size-fits-all approach does not apply to achieving optimal well-being. My aim is to enhance your life by taking into account the limitations and advantages of your specific stage in life, allowing us to maximize your potential through small yet impactful upgrades that yield significant benefits.

I invite you to embark on this transformative journey with me, and together, let's achieve a better and healthier you.
