Who doesn’t want to be well rested, comfortable in their own skin, attentive & present with work, family & friends?

Who doesn’t want to be able to rev their engine when they need to and then downshift when they want to?
Literally no one. It's something we all want!

It sounds delicious, doesn’t it? Being in balance. 

• You wake up feeling energized and fall asleep easily

• Your digestive system is reliable (and so is elimination 💩) and bloat is a distant memory

• Your mind is clear and focused and less affected by pockets of stress

• You rarely, if ever, get sick 

• Your body feels like home

It doesn’t matter how old you are, how off-track you’ve gotten, or how many unsuccessful cleanses or detoxes you have under your belt.

Your body is always capable of coming back into balance because balance is your natural state.

When your body is in balance:

Your body is communicating with you–it just doesn’t speak in English.

It speaks in symptoms. The solution is working together WITH your body (instead of against it) to get both of your needs met.

Think of it like being in a relationship: if your partner is engaging in behavior that you don’t like, you have a conversation about it! You have to investigate and get to the bottom of things to know what’s going on.

Not only do you tell them how you feel, but you also seek to understand the motivation behind their behavior. What happens next is a beautiful communication about the needs on BOTH sides and how to work together to get those needs met. And an added bonus is you better understand each other and feel a closer bond moving forward.

This is EXACTLY how it works with your body! 

The key is a deep understanding of your body and its unique needs.

The internal peace you’re craving is ETERNALLY available, but you won’t be able to access it, EVER, until you truly understand what exactly in your body is out of alignment. And that requires that you truly understand your body! 

Here's the thing

• Continue coming up empty handed?

• Put in more and more effort only to feel more and more frustrated?

• Do the things that work for your sister or your best friend or someone on the gram but they don’t work for you?

So why is it, then, that when you try to do all the “right things” to bring your body into balance you: 

• Your occasional bloat has become your new normal and it’s gotten so bad you’ve started opting for loose, flowy tops to hide the food baby so no one asks you if you’re pregnant. 

• You’ve tried the 40-day yoga challenges and the Whole30s but all they do is leave you exhausted and embarrassed by not having made a lasting change. 

• It seems like you have less and less time for yourself and what little time you do reserve for you isn’t even enjoyable cuz all you can do is worry about what you might be missing at work, at home, or anywhere for that matter.

• You’re overwhelmed with reading all the blogs, following all the wellness influencers on the gram, & buying all the things they say will help you feel spry and spunky because no matter how much you consume the information, it never magically turns into transformation.

• You’re fed up with the bloat, the feeling of being tired & wired at the same time (how is that even possible?!), and would give anything to feel at home in your own body.

Does this sound like you?

What if the issue wasn't how hard you were trying but if you're even trying the right thing?

Does it ever feel like something’s not quite working in your body the way you know it can but you’re at a loss as to how to fix it?

I get it - I used to feel that way all the time. 

But before I collected all those fancy titles, I was someone who suffered from:

    • Kidney stones
    • Insomnia
    • Anxiety
    • Brain fog
    • Constant bloat & gas
    • Cystic acne
    • Periods so painful they made me puke

I’m a holistic health coach, 200h RYT, Senior SoulCycle instructor & entrepreneur. 

Hi, I'm Madeleine

And then they prescribed pills to mask my symptoms: 
    • Synthetic hormones for the period pain
    • Uppers for the brain fog
    • Downers for the anxiety & insomnia. 

But, despite all these symptoms, my doctors told me I was perfectly healthy. 

(UM, WHAT?!)

What I wanted were answers,
but ALL I got were bandaids

And the best part?

I now help people, just like you, who are just like I used to be, do the same. I help you do it in a dozen weeks as opposed to a dozen(ish) years, AND I help you do it without the overwhelm.

•For the constant bloat & gas: I learned about Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda (the sister science of yoga) and something called the microbiome to uncover what the message was my body was trying to send to me in the form of bloat and gas. Not surprisingly, it was telling me: “I don’t like what you’re feeding me!” So I responded accordingly.

•For the cystic acne: the adjustments I made to my diet dramatically influenced the quality of my skin. But I also had to unlearn everything I thought I knew about skincare and learn how to nourish skin from the inside out.

•For the periods so painful they made me puke: man, this one was hard. It got worse before it got better. But, when it did get better, I learned how to harness the power of my cycle so that I knew how to work with it instead of dreading it month after month.

•For the kidney stones: I started paying attention to how much water I drank and realized everything I thought I knew about hydration, as a life-long athlete, was false.

•For the insomnia: I took a close look at my bedtime routine, which is something I hadn’t given a second thought to since I was like, seven years old. And? My bedtime routine was total trash! So it made sense that until I cleaned it up, my sleep would be garbage too.

•For the anxiety: I put on my big girl pants and recognized that my mind was constantly racing because it was trying to run away from the things I was unwilling to feel. I was tired of the emotional exhaustion, so I decided to face what it was my mind was trying so desperately to protect me from, and build a relationship with it.

•For the brain fog: I was eating the standard American diet (SAD) - lots of processed carbs and bad fats and sugar and not nearly enough high quality protein or vegetables. And my ability to focus was directly affected by it. What I ate mattered not only for my waistline but for my mind as well. I figured out what foods made my mind slow and fuzzy, and what made me feel sharp & with it. I prefer to feel sharp and with it 🙃, so I started making different food choices.

It didn’t take long for me to realize that I was getting zero support to help me uncover WHY I felt the way I did. Instead, I got meds to make me feel less of it. That didn’t sit right to me, so I stopped refilling prescriptions and started learning.

Over the course of 15 years, I’ve figured out the why for every symptom I was experiencing, and how to address it. 

I TOOK THE TIME, SO THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO. 

I READ THE BOOKS SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO. 

I DID THE TRIAL & ERROR THING UNTIL I FOUND SOLUTIONS, SO THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO. 

I FORMALLY TRAINED SO THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO.

You don’t have to do it alone, which is what I had to do. And believe me: doing it alone is HARD. It’s lonely. It makes it so tempting to say “I can’t figure this out!” then give up. I know because I did that more than a few times. Then I regretted the time I lost when I finally recommitted.

The other best part?

You save posts on Instagram from trusted sources about how to do things like make your own zoodles or meditate your way to a glowing complexion (WTF even are zoodles anyway?) but then those saves just sit there like that pair of just-in-case jeans you keep telling yourself you’re saving til one day they fit you again. Read: the day never comes! You never return to the saved posts, just like you never fit into the jeans again (well, not yet anyway - I can help with that, too!).

You’ve tried eliminating carbs from your diet because you keep hearing about keto this and paleo that but then, rightfully so!, you’re famished and find yourself overeating cuz you’re so hungry and then end up even more bloated than you were before you tried to wage war with wheat.

You keep beating yourself up for not being disciplined enough to do whatever it is your fart-free friends are doing that keeps them the same pant size from one day to the next. And sometimes your beat yourself up so much that you reach for a sweet treat to make you feel better...which just adds to the bloat and gas. And around and around you go.

You judge yourself for what you think is a lack of willpower. You resign yourself to the belief that “this is just how it’s going to be for me–I’m just not one of the lucky ones.” You binge workouts and restrict food (cuz calories in, calories out, right?) but then find yourself binging food and not exercising at all.

You’ve tried a ton of stuff. And your track record has left you discouraged, disappointed, and fedup.

Does this sound familiar? 👇

What you’ve tried hasn’t worked because you were trying to fix the wrong thing. It’s like you keep picking weeds out of your lawn only to see them pop back up a week later because you haven’t been pulling them up by the roots.

The truth is, you were doomed to fail.

You were doomed to fail because you’ve been trying what you see other people doing while not understanding why they’re doing it. Or if YOU should be doing it based on YOUR body.

But here’s the thing: a failure isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of something new.

So, the other truth is:

Being doomed to fail doesn’t mean you have to stay in the failure.

The only reason you’re still stuck is because you tried a few things that didn’t work for you (maybe some of them more than once) but then stopped trying all together.

Madeleine's passion for the subject matter is not only tangible but INFECTIOUS, and I am so grateful to have been a part of  LiveMadWell Academy!

LMW came into my life at the exact right moment and led to a subtle *yet profound* shift in consciousness and awareness of my body that I didn't think was possible. Before the program, I was perpetually bloated despite being what I considered active, and I thought that I could consume whatever I wanted (within reason) so long as I exercised. The information modules opened my eyes to the fundamental concept of the microbiome and prompted me to take a closer look at certain "problem" (for me) foods and habits. This exploration combined with the accountability fostered by the group calls led to actionable changes in behavior. Perhaps most importantly, I've learned to be easier on myself since adopting the mindset that my health is a journey, not a destination, or a number on the scale. I Kat F.

It’s like you’re on a train whose last stop is the one you’re at - and it makes total sense that you’re like “well, this is the end of the line. Guess this is where my journey ends.” But what you haven’t realized until JUST NOW is there’s a whole other train just across the platform, ready to usher you to your destination.

All you have to do is get off the Normalizing-Feeling-Like-💩 Train and board the new one. 

Babe, the new train is LiveMadWell Academy.
And it’s the express train to a state of Vibrant Health.

It feels like knowing you’ll be able to fall asleep easily once you turn off the lights, and that you’ll stay asleep.

Living in a state of Vibrant Health feels like coming home after a really long, hard day of travel.

You know the days: you feel sticky and smelly and puffy…

...and the food was bad
and you didn’t drink enough water
and you’re tired but wired
and all you want is to be done with it.

Imagine that feeling, after the long day of travel, when
you’re home
you’re finished with your shower
you’re clean & moisturized
and properly pampered.

And then you get to melt into your bed and breathe a sigh of relief so big it makes you realize you hadn't taken a proper breath the whole time you were on the road.

SoulCycle? See you there.
Yoga? Love me some down dogs.
Lifting? Count me in, bro. 

SoulCycle?
See you there.

Yoga?
Love me some down dogs.

Lifting?
  Count me in, bro. 

Waking up easily in the morning, confident you’ll poop soon cuz that’s how your body rolls 💩. Picture the ease & satisfaction in your food choices cuz you actually know what does and doesn’t jive with your system. You have energy to get shit done and also move your body in any way you decide. 

Vibrant Health feels like:

Glowing skin, a lil sparkle in the eyes, a healthy weight that’s just right for YOU, strong & supple hair & nails, and no bloat around the midsection or jawline.

But even better than how it looks is how it FEELS.

Vibrant Health looks like:

Everyday you CAN wake up without hitting snooze even once. Even if that’s not how you woke up today, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible for you to wake up like that tomorrow.

Everyday you CAN have the time you need for the self-care things you say you want in your life. Even if you didn’t have the time today, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible for you to make the time tomorrow.

Everyday you CAN trust that your clothes will fit the same way they did yesterday even though today, you can’t remember the last time you had that kind of faith in your own body.

What happened yesterday and what’s happening today don’t have to be what happens tomorrow. Even if that’s never been true for you in the past, that doesn’t mean it can’t be true for you in the future. 

That’s what it feels like to live in a state of Vibrant Health. But like, ALL THE TIME.

And guess what?
You can absolutely feel that way all day every day.

That feeling.

The last attempt you’ll ever have to make at cultivating vibrant health – because this time it will actually work.

My signature 12-week online group coaching program that teaches you how to ditch bloat, increase energy, and finally feel like yourself again– all without the overwhelm.

This program is the culmination of my 15 years of research, training, and lived experience in the wild wild west of wellness. Here’s a sneak peak of just SOME of the juicy stuff you’ll learn and discover when you join LiveMadWell Academy

...and that's why I created

In the middle of the pandemic and 5 months postpartum, I found myself isolated while trying to navigate being a new mom and working. I had gained 60lbs during my pregnancy and never really found my groove with diet and exercise. I felt overwhelmed by all the info online about diet and exercise and I didn’t have the will to do it on my own. Long story short, LMW Academy completely transformed my daily life. Madeleine holds space for everyone in a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere and the focus is really on how each individual body is different and has different needs. I've changed how I eat, how I move my body, and even how I talk to myself and how I care for myself. If you’re on the fence at all, the program is absolutely worth it. What do you have to lose?  I Katherine A.

Before LiveMadWell Academy, my body didn't really feel like mine.

Here's what Katherine had to say about how LiveMadWell Academy changed her life...
