Hi, I'm Arinne Dickson. Wife, mom, and certified health coach.

HC44-CoachProfileFifteen years ago I was faced with a decision.

I had just learned that fruits and vegetables and other whole foods that grow in the ground are so powerful they can prevent and reverse disease. Wait, what?? It turned out to be a pivotal moment in my life. You see, there was cancer and heart disease on both sides of my family, and I wanted to do whatever I could to avoid them.

Yet the food on my plate was anything but real (except for the one orange or banana I would eat each day). I knew I needed to make a change. My daily Frosted Flakes, PopTarts, and frozen dinners were not going to take me in the direction I wanted to go.

So, I decided to turn from my processed food diet and embrace real food.

It was slow-going at first, but I stuck with it because I knew that my future health and life experience depended on embracing some new habits. I knew the effort would be worth it.

And it has been. My life has changed in ways I never imagined. In fact, I am healthier now in my late 40s than I was in my 20s! (Can you imagine that?) I take no medications, have ample energy all day long, rarely get sick, and healed from endometriosis and infertility.

I want other individuals and families to experience the joy that comes from embracing a real-food lifestyle.

I am passionate about educating adults and families on how food affects our bodies and sharing simple tools for Lifestyle, Exercise, Attitude, and Nutrition that can become lifelong habits and have the potential to transform health. I’ve seen it happen for me, and I believe it can happen for you too.

I went through Arinne’s LEAN Start Bootcamp and Real Food Reset and all I can say is WOW! Through Arinne’s expertise and powerful coaching I gained knowledge that helped me finally start the journey to clean up my diet without feeling so overwhelmed. She thoughtfully gave me challenge, inspiration and listened to my heart so that I could start a journey to changing my life!

It’s amazing what a conversation with the right person can do. I could not see what I needed to focus on, but Arinne asked questions that helped me connect the changes I wanted to make with something practical and easy. I am so thankful for Arinne, who with her disarming personality really feels like I am talking to my “friend in health.” Arinne provided me with the safe space that I needed to let down my guard and helped me to get to the core of what practical changes can bring about better health and daily functioning for me.
