Meet Erika
Founder of Empower Fit & Wellness
I’ve always been passionate about fitness and “eating healthy,” often following the latest trends. Despite doing what I thought was right, I began struggling with gut issues and was eventually diagnosed with IBS. I saw multiple doctors and specialists, yet nothing truly helped. I was given labels and quick fixes but no real answers.
That experience taught me how confusing and frustrating health can feel when you’re not given the full picture. That’s when everything shifted. I began educating myself and exploring a root-cause approach to nutrition and healing. For the first time, I understood how food, movement, stress, and internal balance all work together and how addressing the root cause, rather than just symptoms, can create real, lasting change.
That experience shaped the foundation of Empower Fit & Wellness. Today, I combine pain-free functional strength, personalized nutrition, and habit-building, with a deeper look at internal health, including nutrient status and blood chemistry. Education is at the core of my work, because when you understand your body, you’re empowered to support it not fight against it.
Empower Fit & Wellness exists to help you move better, feel stronger, and build a healthier relationship with your body from the inside out.
