Welcome!
I’m Amanda, certified holistic nutrition consultant, herbalist, and founder of Holistic Beet! I am most passionate about teaching others how to use what our Creator gave us for health through nutrition, herbal remedies, and natural preventatives.
My journey to holistic health really began as a child. I suffered from regular stomach aches, stress and anxiety, and a host of other autoimmune-related symptoms, but I was never able to get any real answers to any of my health questions. I bounced around to different modalities and therapies throughout my adult life.
I married my high school sweetheart in 2008, and followed him wherever the US Navy took us! He was my greatest support system as I hunted for health, and he continues to follow me as I make changes to our home and lifestyle. I am consistently humbled every time he trusts me to handle the health and nutrition needs of our family all on my own.
It wasn’t until I worked with a functional holistic practitioner that I was able to many any progress on healing. It turns out that all of my symptoms could be traced back to the effects of poor gut health! I began a series of detoxes, diet changes, and targeted supplements in an effort to balance my gut and find true healing.
In 2016 I decided to enroll in the holistic nutrition program at American College of Healthcare Sciences. I had spent many years prior studying holistic health on my own, and I was ready to take my learning to the next step. AND, I wanted to be able to help other people who were also struggling to find the answers to their mysterious symptoms! During my certification, I focused on detox, autoimmunity, gut health, and herbalism. Upon graduating with Honors, I left my 11 year career as a hairstylist and began consulting clients in holistic nutrition.
Over time, I continued my education in herbalism, and in 2022 I launched my own herbal shop of small batch organic herbal medicinals. I offer my products at a local farmer's market, as well as year round on my website.
Now I as a wife, mother of 2, and aspiring homesteader, I do my best to carve out time for work. My business model changes with the seasons of life, sometimes I consult clients, sometimes I have a fully stocked herbal shop, sometimes I only offer digital guides.
My passions are deeply rooted in nature and herbal medicine. I believe that we can use a combination of nutrition and natural herbal remedies to prevent illness and heal from the inside out. I am so glad you're here, and I hope to be able to support you along this stage of your healing
