Author Biography:
Hi, I'm Dr. Lauryn Lax, expert nutritionist, occupational therapist, coach, and a woman on a mission to help you end the war with your body, food and fitness. Do you wake up every morning, wishing that something was different? Or think, "If only I was ____ (thinner, leaner, healthier, prettier, etc.), then I'd be good enough."? I used to think that, too. But after spending 14 years in bondage to an eating disorder, I finally decided enough! I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I had to find a new way. I did, and today, using my own journey as inspiration, along with my clinical expertise as a Doctor of Occupational Therapy, Functional Medicine Practitioner & Nutritionist, I offer 1-on-1 Sessions, the Thrive Life Project (My 30-Day Online Nutrition, Fitness, Mindset & Lifestyle Transformation Program) and Education (Thrive's Daily Blog, Books, Podcast and Online E-Courses) to help other women thrive in their lives, too. Yes, I am a clinician, but I don't treat problems. I don't even treat symptoms. I treat people: You, the whole person. I treat women. And I dig deeper, looking at the roots of your struggle, addressing your mind, body and soul. When you work with me, your transformation stretches far beyond just changing your body. It also changes how you think.
