DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
You're Doing Everything Right. Your Body Still Won't Budge.
If you're a disciplined, high-functioning woman who can't get answers — you're in the right place.
You wake up exhausted no matter how much you sleep — running on caffeine by 10am
Your doctor says "your labs look normal" while you feel anything but normal
You're gaining weight despite eating well and working out — sometimes gaining more
Brain fog, mood swings, bloating — and no one can tell you why it's happening
"This isn't your fault. You're not lazy. And you don't have to accept this as just part of getting older as a woman."
- Vanessa Pozos, Vital Spark Coaching Founder
The truth is that standard labs only screen for disease — not the gut and hormonal dysfunction that silently wrecks your metabolism years before anything shows up as "abnormal." That's the gap we close.
THE SOLUTION
THE FUNCTIONAL RESET
Most programs treat the symptom. We find the source — because that's the only thing that creates results that last.
1
Advanced Functional Lab Testing
Too often women are told their labs are “normal,” even while dealing with stubborn weight gain, low energy, and ongoing symptoms. That’s because doctors are trained to diagnose disease, not the subtle dysfunction that slows metabolism and disrupts hormones long before illness appears. We remove the guesswork by testing deeper. Advanced functional labs show us what’s actually happening in your gut and metabolism, so every next step is based on evidence from your body.
2
Custom Functional Health Protocols
Most women try to fix symptoms by following fad diets or taking random supplements, cutting carbs, going keto, eating “clean,” or copying what worked for someone else. Sometimes it helps briefly. Often it makes things worse. We create personalized functional health protocols based on YOUR lab data. That includes targeted nutrition, supplements, lifestyle habits, and training programming designed to correct dysfunction, restore metabolic capacity, and help your body actually respond again.
3
Next Level Coaching & Accountability
Testing gives us clarity. Protocols give us direction. But lasting results come from consistent execution and smart adjustments. We'll track symptoms weekly, make intentional tweaks, and teach you why changes are being made, so you build confidence and long-term control over your health. The goal isn’t short-term compliance or long-term dependence. It’s sustainable results, confidence in your decisions, and leaving fully in control of your health.
REAL WOMEN. REAL RESULTS.
They Were Exactly Where You Are Now.
Over 3,000 women who were told to "try harder" — who finally got real answers.

THE TEAM BEHIND YOUR RESULTS
Meet Your Coaches
Every Vital Spark coach has lived what our clients are going through. This isn't a program with a celebrity face and a faceless support team — these are specialists who got their own answers through functional health and dedicated their careers to helping women do the same.
Founder & CEO
VANESSA POZOS
Vanessa is the Founder and CEO of Vital Spark. After graduating from the University of Georgia and spending several years in corporate advertising and accounting, she followed her true passion — helping women rediscover how great they can feel in their own bodies. She started online coaching in 2019, and what began as a passion project grew quickly into a 7-figure business with a full team of specialty coaches.
Over the course of her career, Vanessa found herself gaining weight despite doing everything right — and being told her labs were normal. That experience sent her deeper into functional health, where she finally uncovered her root causes, lost 40 lbs, and transformed her approach to coaching entirely. She is a Certified Personal Trainer, Nutrition Coach, Hormone Health Coach, Functional Health Coach, and Health Mindset Coaching Specialist. When she's not coaching, you'll find her riding horses, playing with her dog, or binge-watching Netflix with her husband Omar.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH COACH
OLIVIA KNOELL
Olivia is an MMU Certified Functional Health Coach with 6+ years of experience as an online health and fitness coach. She specializes in metabolic health, pre and postnatal fitness and nutrition, food freedom, and breaking the all-or-nothing mindset that keeps so many women trapped in the yo-yo diet cycle. She graduated from Impact Fitness Coaching Academy in 2020, and furthered her expertise as a Certified Girls Gone Strong Pre & Postnatal Expert and Metabolic Mentor University Functional Health Coach in 2024.
Olivia's passion for this work started with her own journey of losing 40 lbs sustainably and rebuilding a healthy, peaceful relationship with food. She knows firsthand what it feels like to fight your body — and what it feels like when you finally stop. Now she loves helping women experience that same shift: working with their bodies instead of constantly against them. Liv lives in Northern California, is a proud mom, an avid shopper, and can complete a Sudoku puzzle in 3 minutes flat.
REGISTERED DIETITIAN
RAE PLESSALA
Rae is a Registered Dietitian with a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics from Nicholls State University, a Certified Integrative and Functional Nutritionist, and a Functional Health Coach. She specializes in autoimmune disease, infertility, and gut health — areas she came to through her own battles with disordered eating, acne, hormonal imbalances, and chronic gut dysfunction. After discovering how good it feels to be truly healthy and free with food, she made it her mission to help other women get there too.
Rae has helped clients achieve natural pregnancies after years of infertility, resolve gut conditions like SIBO, put autoimmune diseases into remission, come off multiple medications, and finally break through stubborn weight loss resistance. Her clinical background combined with her personal experience makes her uniquely equipped to meet women where they are and actually get them to where they want to be. Rae lives in Louisiana with her husband and baby boy, and loves visiting Disney as often as humanly possible.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH COACH
MACKENZIE BOWMAN
MacKenzie is an MMU Level 1 Functional Health Coach with a bachelor's in exercise science, a master's in kinesiology, a master's in nursing, and 9+ years of combined experience as a labor and delivery nurse, athletic trainer, and online coach. As a former college athlete, she was shocked when her body completely changed after having kids — and nothing she tried seemed to work anymore. That frustration sent her into functional health, where she healed her hormones and gut, and transformed her postpartum body into one she's genuinely happy and confident in.
MacKenzie is especially passionate about helping mothers reclaim their health — not just for themselves, but for the next generation. She believes the work we do on our own bodies today has the power to change what our daughters and granddaughters inherit. She lives outside Nashville, Tennessee with her husband, two kids, and two dogs, and can usually be found coaching her children's sports teams or out hiking and boating whenever the opportunity arises.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH PRACTITIONER
JODI STONEHOCKER
Jodi has been a nutrition coach since 2015, holding certifications in CrossFit Level 1 & 2, Precision Nutrition, MMU Level 1, and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. She grew up watching her parents navigate serious health challenges and made a decision early on to put herself on a different path. She was always athletic — competitive cheerleading, CrossFit — until years of overtraining and undereating caught up with her and she developed Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
That diagnosis became the turning point. Jodi realized that women like her needed something far beyond basic nutrition and fitness advice — they needed functional health support that actually addressed the root cause. She now has her Hashimoto's in remission and channels that hard-won knowledge into helping other women find the same freedom. Jodi lives in Utah with her husband and two boys, ages 5 and 7. They're an outdoor family through and through — skiing, surfing, hiking, and anything that gets them outside.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH PRACTITIONER
ELIZABETH MCMILLIN
Elizabeth is an MMU Certified Functional Health Practitioner and Functional Nutrition Coach with advanced experience in metabolic health, autoimmunity, fertility, and gut dysfunction. Her passion for functional health is deeply personal — she spent her childhood and teen years battling chronic gut pain, food sensitivities, persistent bloating, and a metabolism that simply wouldn't cooperate, no matter what she did. Determined to find real answers, she uncovered her root causes, healed her gut, and rebuilt her metabolic health from the ground up.
Elizabeth's own healing journey — including navigating a difficult pregnancy — deepened her commitment to helping women reconnect with their bodies and achieve sustainable wellness on their own terms. She brings both clinical expertise and genuine empathy to every client relationship, because she knows exactly how exhausting it is to feel dismissed and unheard when your body is clearly struggling. Elizabeth is a boy mom to a 3-year-old and 4-month-old, and lives in Oceanside, California with her husband and her boys.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH COACH
KRISTA MORELAND
Krista is a Certified Functional Health Coach through MMU, a Precision Nutrition Level 1 & 2 Coach, Certified Macro-Nutrition Coach, Certified Life Coach, and former two-sport collegiate athlete with a Master's in Secondary Education. For over a decade, she has helped thousands of women lose weight, heal their relationship with food, and feel genuinely at home in their bodies — while leading their families with strength and joy. Her approach blends the science of functional health with the deeper mindset work that makes results actually last.
Krista's path into this work came through postpartum depression, gaining over 60 lbs, and the deeply painful experience of not recognizing herself in the mirror. She knows the fight it takes to come back home to yourself — and she has devoted her career to guiding other women through exactly that transformation: rebuilding confidence, rewriting the beliefs that keep them stuck, and reclaiming their sense of power. Krista is a mom of three very active kids and wife to a Phoenix, Arizona Fire Chief.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH COACH
SORAYA RUFENER
Soraya is a Registered Nurse with 7+ years of inpatient experience, a Certified Precision Nutrition Coach, Girls Gone Strong Pre & Postnatal Coach, and Certified MMU Functional Health Coach. She brings a rare combination of clinical expertise and deep lived experience to her work — having spent years coaching women, particularly nurses and moms, to lose weight, regulate their hormones, and finally feel like themselves again. Her background in inpatient nursing gives her a level of physiological understanding that most health coaches simply don't have.
Soraya's own journey makes her work even more meaningful. She struggled with her weight for years — all while working demanding long shifts as a nurse — until she discovered functional health coaching and lost 45 lbs in a way that actually stuck. She knows what it means to pursue your own health while pouring everything into caring for others. Soraya lives in Wisconsin with her husband, three little ones, and their sweet rescue pup.
FUNCTIONAL HEALTH PRACTITIONER
LINDSEY NEWMAN
Lindsey is a Certified Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and MMU Functional Health Practitioner. Over the past five years, she has coached more than 250 women through functional health and postpartum recovery — helping them restore their energy, balance their hormones, and feel at home in their bodies again. Having navigated her own health challenges including POTS, PCOS, adrenal burnout, and low thyroid, Lindsey brings a lived understanding of complex, overlapping dysfunction that goes far beyond textbook knowledge.
Lindsey's greatest strength is making women feel genuinely seen and supported — not just handed a protocol and left to figure it out alone. She is deeply passionate about creating a safe, empowering space for clients navigating postpartum recovery and functional health challenges, because she knows how isolating those experiences can feel. As a mom of four, she understands firsthand the demands placed on women and the courage it takes to prioritize your own health. Lindsey lives in Dallas, Texas with her husband and children.
