MEET OUR COACHES
DR. SUZANNE RUTHERFORD, MD
Search the globe and it will be tough to find someone more dedicated than Suzanne to helping women feel strong, healthy, and confident in their own skin.
Suzanne is a practicing family physician with an undergrad in nutritional sciences. She is deeply passionate about evidence-based nutrition and coaching women to break free from restrictive dieting and find flexible and sustainable nutrition that yields life-changing results.
Suzanne doesn’t just talk the talk. After finishing medical school and giving birth to her second child, she found herself struggling with her own health & fitness.
"I felt like a stranger in my own body."
Longing for a change, Suzanne committed herself to strength training and refocusing her nutrition. The result? She lost over 30 lbs, has kept it off, and feels better in her 40s than she did in her 20s!
Now she spends the better part of her professional career helping other women to experience the same.
