    Jen Larsh - Unlocking Cellular Health

    Jen Larsh is a Cellular Nutrition Specialist and the founder of Lifeforce Energetix, where she helps individuals uncover the root causes of their health challenges and restore vitality at the cellular level. Her passion for this work began after losing her mother in 2020, following years of unexplained health issues and disconnected treatments that never addressed the underlying problem. Through her own journey of discovery and advanced training, Jen realized that it was cellular dysfunction and metabolic breakdown at the core of her mother’s decline — and she became determined to change that outcome for others. Today, she guides her clients through a powerful 4 or 6-month program, combining personalized protocols, including longevity tools like peptides and PEMF/Terahertz technologies, with compassionate coaching to create lasting, life-changing results. Jen is dedicated to empowering people to reclaim their health, extend their precious time with loved ones, and live fully and vibrantly in every season of life. Jennifer Larsh!

    Dawn Cotillo - Hormone Harmony - Unveiling Weight Loss Secrets

    Dawn Catillo is the founder of Be Balanced Natural Hormone Weight Loss.  Be Balanced is all about helping women address stubborn weight gain and PMS, perimenopause, and menopause symptoms by balancing hormones. Dawn shares her own history with cramps, acne, bloating, and later midlife weight gain, and explains how her background in fitness, nutrition, and corporate wellness led to researching why diet and exercise alone weren’t working for many women, resulting in her book The Hormone Shift. She describes how stress-driven cortisol can lower progesterone and create estrogen dominance, affecting mood, sleep, cravings, and weight, and contrasts Be Balanced’ progesterone-focused approach with HRT and GLP-1s, emphasizing fat loss without muscle loss. She outlines the program components—whole-food eating plan, natural remedies, liver support, candida screening, relaxation therapy, and follow-up—and explains how to start via bebalancedcenters.com with a free hormone assessment and consultation.
