Nancy Godbout of Northampton Mind and Body Wellness, LLC
What made you decide to start your business? I struggled with my weight for many years, my breaking point was in 2023, my weight was 213 pounds, my doctor stated that I was prediabetic, and my cholesterol was terrible. Besides these issues, I struggled with IBS, candida, chronic stomach issues, brain fog. I was starting menopause, struggling with insomnia, night sweats, and chronic headaches. Western medicine was pushing prescribed medications and I hate taking medication. I was at my lowest point, running my own business, having 2 children as a single mom, 2 dogs, a cat, two aging parent (almost lost my mother to covid) and felt overwhelmed with my life. At this time, I vowed to myself that I was going to make myself the priority. I told my doctor give me three month and we can revisit medications at that time. She agreed, I had knowledge thank God, I asked her to run a specific lab panel.
She agreed, I began taking prebiotics, probiotics, eating fermented foods, my stomach began to improve. I changed my entire diet incorporated healthy proteins, carbs and fats. I began tracking my steps, sleep, diet, and incorporated a manageable work out program. I added a workout I could manage throughout the day. I began exercising for 10-15 minutes 2-3 times a week, HIIT, Pilates / Yoga -2 to 3 times a week, and meditation. I starting hiking again (one of my favorite activities). I joined a hiking app and group. I began taking peptide/GLP1's. I started HRT to help with my menopause. I started using red light therapy, lymphatic massage, sauna, and many other modalities. My goal is to help as many individuals as possible attain there health and wellness goals. I want each person to have a customized plan based on individual needs. I want to look at the whole person (physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, occupational, and environmental wellness). We need to have a well balanced life.
When I returned to the doctor 3 months later she was shocked at my results. She no longer was pushing medication, she said keep doing what your doing. I then started pursuing my education in biohacking, nutrition, peptide/GLP1's, mindfulness. I added all these services to my private practice, I focused on 7 areas of life. I began changing others lives, I vowed to myself that I will help as many people as I can, I will educate others.
I opened a new business: Northampton Mind and Body Wellness. I offer multiple individual packages, group packages. I am offering labs, peptide/GLP1's, coaching, reiki, red light therapy, cryotherapy, body scanning, hyperbaric chamber, and many other services. I love my life now.
What is one of your great success stories, or a recent project you're proud of? Recently, we developed a menopause wellness program that I am extremely excited to roll out with our clients. A great success story - worked with a 42 year old mother of three, who works full time, volunteers at the kids school, and has a sick mother. After the 3 kids she had gained 73 pounds. "I tried everything to lose weight." We developed a comprehensive plan for the client that involved labs, peptides, exercise, sleep program, and nutrition plan. Offered weekly coaching and emotional support through the process. Our client lost 76 pounds and is so happy.
Any exciting plans for the future? We have a big reveal coming out in 3 weeks. Stay tuned!
