Hi, I’m Helen—a structural engineer turned functional health coach, MS warrior, and mama of four. I help busy Christian women and women with autoimmune conditions heal their bodies, regain energy, and feel confident again—through simple, science-backed nutrition and strength training.

Helen Pridmore Functional Health & Wellness Coach

Founder of Functionally Inspired Living | Certified FASTer Way to Fat Loss® Coach

In 2020, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis after losing vision in my left eye. Instead of settling for a life of decline, I turned to functional medicine, whole food nutrition, and faith-based wellness. I not only regained my sight—I healed my body, rebuilt strength, and reclaimed my life.

For the past 7+ years, I’ve lived the FASTer Way to Fat Loss® lifestyle, and I’ve coached countless women to lasting transformation by focusing on:

Intermittent fasting to optimize fat loss and balance hormones
Whole-food, anti-inflammatory nutrition to reduce inflammation and support healing
Carb cycling + macro tracking to fuel strength and metabolic health
Strength training for women over 30 to build muscle, age well, and stay resilient

I believe that food is medicine, movement is power, and mindset is everything. My passion is helping women go from burnout and confusion to freedom and clarity—without wasting years trying to figure it out.

If you’re a mom who’s ready for a faith-rooted, functionally inspired approach to wellness that actually works for real life—I’ve got you. Let’s heal, strengthen, and thrive together.

Stop Wasting Time on Quick Fixes That Don’t Work.
You don’t need another fad diet, extreme cleanse, or complicated routine that only masks the real issue.
You need a plan that actually moves the needle—effectively and sustainably.

I help busy moms and women navigating autoimmune challenges build strength, reduce inflammation, and feel good in their bodies again... without adding more chaos to their already full lives.

✨ This isn’t just another wellness trend.
It’s a real-life lifestyle that works—with real food, efficient workouts, and mindset shifts that stick.

My clients are living proof:
You can do this. You can feel better.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
