Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach Brenda T. Bradley, PhD is an engaging and compassionate certified health coach. Through her work and passion for healthy eating and living, she decided to answer the call to become a certified health coach. Determined to break free from the Standard American Diet (SAD) which is known to do more harm than good, she set out on her journey to research food, diseases, and fitness. Her drive and determination led her to become more involved in health and fitness. After struggling with her own health goals and learning about the body and what it needs to perform optimally, she made the switch to a plant-based diet. This diet she credits for helping her not only to lose weight, but has improved her overall quality of life. Last year she developed a new program, The 21-Day Vegan Challenge, and has recommended that clients and those struggling with weight or health issues give it a try. The 21-Day Challenge is a vegan-only food challenge that stresses the healing power of food and how its proper use can restore the body to a natural healthy state. Dr. Bradley’s goal is to inspire others to lead the charge for healthy eating and exercise. She leads workshops on nutrition and offers individual health coaching.

I craft compelling stories of how customers are using products/services, edit out that one sneaky word that turns a response to a question heard 100s of times from snarky to stellar, and follow up to make sure someone got his/her project off and running. I don't use scripted responses in my emails (even those massive conference follow-ups) and I LOVE writing hand-written thank you / birthday / happy Wednesday cards to clients. // STRATEGIC // With degrees in Digital Design and Graphics, Advertising and Marketing Communications, and Marketing, I have the understanding and experience to translate strategic goals into actionable items through multiple channels. // DATA DRIVEN // Spreadsheets are kind of my thing. I use data to formulate customer profiles which I can then use to target and evaluate campaigns. And these profiles aren’t just demographics. The data becomes “Brad,” a recent college graduate whose favorite color is red, owns a golden retriever, and likes to spend time outdoors with his friends. // I GET “WEB” // I started designing websites in 1997 (yes, I’ll admit to having a GeoCities account) and am proficient in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

I specialize in backend technologies with a focus on leveraging data to give you actionable insights. I have had the pleasure of working with start-ups, midcap companies, and Fortune 100 companies. However and most importantly, I value the fact that my past clients have said, "I have a very niche biz and he was able to understand what my needs were with just one email from me!" and "I felt heard."
