ABOUT ME
As a coach, Marla puts the power back in YOUR hands.
Welcome! My name is Marla Heasley-Harriman and I am an Integrative Nutritional Health Coach, but it has been a long journey. I was born in Hollywood and was a successful actress for over 12 years. I was a series regular on America’s #1 hit NBC show “The 'A'-Team”. I appeared in films such as “Marrying Man”, starring Alec Baldwin and Kim Bassinger, and others and guest starred on many prime time TV shows and commercials. In 1987, I became ill with Epstein Barr and Hashimoto Thyroiditis, and years later, in 2009, I developed Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD). MCTD is a very rare autoimmune disease, consisting of Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Sjögren’s and the Rheumatoid Arthritis was very severe. I was prescribed a large range of medications. During the 6 years that the disease was active, I went through terrible of pain and suffering, physically and emotionally, however being highly self-motivated, I extensively researched a kaleidoscope of diets and supplements to combat my ill health, which then dramatically changed the course of the illness. Subsequently I am medication free for the MCTD and no longer suffer from the reoccurring flare-ups and I feel better than I have in years.
Inspired by my exhaustive journey toward normalcy, outside of conventional medicine, I received a Integrative Nutrition Health Coach Certificate from New York’s Institute for Integrative Nutrition*, and I am now a practicing Nutritional Health Coach. Modifications in diet and lifestyle changed everything for me. With so many people today suffering from auto-immune diseases, I am highly driven to share my own experiences and search for a better quality of life. I am inspired to help others, as I helped myself. I studied a variety of dietary theories and practical lifestyle coaching methods. With my knowledge, we can co-create completely personalized actions based on your goals to move you toward your ideal vision of health within your unique body, lifestyle, preferences, and resources.
