Biography
The Roots of Health with Meredith Rhodes Carson
Meredith Rhodes Carson is a geologist turned health coach (From This Day Forward Health Coaching) who has taken her life back – fundamentally by shifting her perspective and asking questions. Her background in geology gives her both deep evolutionary insight, a curiosity to explore and to learn more, and an unwillingness to accept that there is one single answer to any problem. Especially when it comes to human health in a modern world.
After her own doctor failed her, Meredith was motivated to become the expert in her own body, and so began her journey of self-discovery. Over the course of a year or so, she weaned herself off of 2 prescription medications, regained her fertility, stopped losing hair, lost her anxiety, gained confidence and mental clarity, and cultivated a very healthy respect for her body. And now that she’s been certified through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition as a Holistic Health Coach, she’s ready to help you to ask important questions about your own health, to support you to see your life here on Earth from a new perspective, and to regain control of your body like you never thought you could.
