Hally Brooke

Founder, CEO & Senior Head Coach

Why I Started Live Nourished: I was raised by very health-conscious parents who taught me about the importance of good food in its natural form and I have always eaten well. My self-education in nutrition and exercise began in 2011 when I battled and overcame my own serious GI issues including IBS and SIBO. My experience lead me to pursue official certifications and launch my own personal training and wellness company (Playful Fitness) in 2016.

Through the process of finding wholeness and healing for myself as well as leading clients to wholeness and health, I learned that living nourished takes more than just “eating healthy” or working out and that, in fact, sometimes health means enjoying a burger, taking a nap instead of going on a run, and resting instead of pushing hard. So, I went back to school for nutrition and functional medicine, rebranded Playful Fitness to Live Nourished Coaching and here we are. :)

 

I am passionate about health. Not just physical health but mental, spiritual and physical health and I am passionate about helping our clients learn to live nourished lives, to be kind to themselves and grow and heal every day.

Just Me: I am a Colorado native. Born in Boulder, I now live in Colorado Springs with my rescue pup, Dell. I am an avid mountain biker, dog lover, white water rafter, skier, hiker and I am happiest outdoors. I was a national-level collegiate swimmer and soccer player. Joy is my normal, I laugh easily and my favorite food is absolutely dark chocolate.

Fun Fact: Before starting my own business I taught math in Harrison District 2 (Title 1) for nine years (yep, I’m a nerd and I fully own that!)

    COACH

    Why I Coach: As a certified health coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and certified Sports Nutritionist by the National Academy of Sports Nutrition I’ve learned that health is not a one size fits all. Everyone has their own bio individual needs! My mission is to guide you on your unique path to becoming your healthiest most confident self. Together we work to incorporate sustainable lifestyle choices and positive mindset shifts. During my own wellness journey of 10 years I’ve come to understand that being healthy is a choice and is something you come to daily. My passion stemmed from my own autoimmune deficiencies, disordered eating, and negative mindset. I became fitness competitor and quickly understood that being fit doesn’t equal health and fulfillment. I know the yo-yo diet cycle and the debilitating negative self talk that comes along with “falling off”. I strive to teach balance and nourishment in all aspects of life so you can feel whole and happy!

    Just me: I’m born and raised in Texas and I’m a mama of 3 playful dogs. I love being active and being outside in the sunshine. I really value family and quality time with my husband. We love experiencing new foods and doing home projects together. I am strongly rooted in my faith with God and spend time growing that relationship daily.

    COACH

    Why I Coach: As a Master Certified Health and Wellness Coach through the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute, I am deeply committed to empowering individuals to achieve their personal health goals. My approach is rooted in science-based education, focusing on the areas of lifestyle, exercise, attitude, and nutrition. With a bachelor’s degree in Social Work from the University at Albany and over 20 years of experience as a Doula, I bring a unique blend of empathy, expertise, and holistic care to my clients.

    My journey into health and wellness coaching began after being diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases. This pivotal moment ignited my determination to improve my health through education and informed choices. The positive changes I made in my life led to significant health improvements, fueling my passion to help others achieve their healthiest selves. Today, I specialize in coaching clients where they are at and guiding them toward a balanced and vibrant life.

    About Me: I was born on Staten Island, NY, and grew up in the scenic Catskill Mountains, where my lifelong love for animals and the outdoors was cultivated. While I enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, snow-related sports are not among my favorites. Family is at the heart of my life, and I cherish the time I spend with them. Each day, I strive to grow closer to God, nurturing my spiritual journey alongside my professional and personal endeavors.

    Fun Fact: I love writing songs and Christian suspense novels.
