Meet Sandy, Your Certified Health Coach

Hi, I'm Sandy.

Im a Certified Women’s Health Coach specializing in perimenopause. I hold certifications through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and the Institute for Menstrual Health, and I work specifically with women in their 40s and 50s who are exhausted, frustrated, and wondering why their body feels like a stranger’s.

I know that feeling because I’ve lived it.

Years ago, I started noticing things that didn’t add up. Hormone shifts, chronic symptoms, a season of mold illness that derailed everything I thought I knew about my health. I went to appointments and got told my labs looked normal. I tried harder, pushed through, and still felt like something was deeply off. It wasn’t until I started understanding how foundational things like blood sugar, sleep, stress, and gut health actually work together that things began to shift.

That journey is why I do this work.

At Sandra Adams Wellness, I coach women through perimenopause using a whole-body, lifestyle-first approach. No restrictive diets. No one-size-fits-all protocols. Instead, we work together to understand what your body actually needs in this season, and we build from there.

My four core pillars are nutrition, sleep, movement, and nervous system support. We look at blood sugar balance, gut health, stress resilience, and hormone wellness, and we address them in an order that makes sense for how your body actually functions. When we support the foundations, everything else has a better chance to follow.

I work with women in Traverse City, Leelanau County, and across Northern Michigan, as well as virtually with women anywhere. I’m a proud member of the Leelanau Wellness Collective.

If you’re in perimenopause, approaching it, or just noticing that something has shifted and you can’t explain why, I’d love to talk.

Your body isn’t broken. This season is an invitation, not a decline. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.
