Hi! I'm Maria, a certified health and wellness coach, and a nutritionist.

I'm Norwegian, but spent part of my childhood in Southern Africa and have lived in Switzerland for over two decades. My multicultural journey has shaped how I see the world - with curiosity and a respect for each person's unique story and values.

My professional background spans both the corporate and non-profit sectors, and I've worked for many years in Human Resources. I've seen first-hand how demanding work and chronic stress can take a toll on our health. And I've learned how important it is to take care of the things we can control - even when life feels overwhelming.

My own journey began a few years ago when someone I love was diagnosed with a serious illness. What started out as an attempt to understand, led to a lot of reading and deeper questions about health. I also began changing my own life - how I ate, how I managed stress, how I rested. Little by little. I noticed real shifts: better health markers and alleviation of allergy symptoms, but most of all a calmer, more grounded way of living. And I realized I wanted to help others do the same.

Today, I want to share my knowledge and passion, and help you implement long lasting lifestyle changes that fit into your everyday routine and are easy to implement. If you're ready to reconnect with your wellbeing in a sustainable way, I'd be happy to walk that path with you.
