Meet Chanci Dawn: Genetic Health Coach
I'm Chanci Dawn, a Board-Certified Functional Nutrition Practitioner and Wellness Coach - passionate about helping women navigate midlife with confidence, clarity, and vibrant health - using their genetics as a guide.
My path into healing work started early. I grew up witnessing the women around me silently struggle - with mental health challenges, disordered eating, body shame, and the painful disconnect from feeling at home in their own skin. From a young age, I knew I wanted to be part of the solution.
I began by studying psychology at the University of Alberta, focusing on emotional and disordered eating. However, after a pivotal experience while volunteering on a crisis line, I shifted my academic path to education and educational psychology. Still, the calling to holistic health never left me.
Years later, life cracked me open. I was in a failing marriage, raising three young kids, one of whom had a brain tumor, and struggling with my own relationship with food and my body. I hit a breaking point. But with the support of my training, coaches, and an unshakable commitment to healing, I found my way back to health.
That journey led me to deepen my education in holistic health. I became a Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner through the Edison Institute of Holistic Nutrition, a Culinary Nutrition Expert, and an Integrative Life and Wellness Coach with advanced training in Somatic Trauma Therapy.
Still, when I hit my mid-40s, I hit another wall - emotionally drained, hormonally off, and disconnected from myself in ways I couldn’t explain.
Then I found Integrative Genetics.
That changed everything.
Understanding my unique genetic blueprint brought a wave of clarity. It confirmed what I’d sensed all along: our bodies know what they need to thrive - and our genes hold the map.
That moment marked a new beginning in my work. I dove headfirst into the field of Integrative Genetics and trained under Morgan Knull, CFNP, founder of Feed Your Genes and one of the leading experts in the field.

Now, as an Associate Genetic Health Coach, I work alongside Morgan to provide personalized, DNA-driven health strategies for women who are ready to ditch the frustration, reclaim their energy, and feel their best - at any stage of life.
