What’s getting in your way isn't effort — it's not having the right strategy based on what your body actually needs.
"My energy levels are beginning to increase. I do not feel like I am slowly dying after each menstrual cycle. Brain fog improved. Depression is gone. Candida is gone and my skin improved tremendously. This program offered me the support that I had not been able to get from even from local doctors. Because this program gets to the root cause of the issue by proper testing, like the GI MAP for example, it offers hope that the health issue can be eliminated. This is a honest, intelligent and effective approach."
"Working with you fixed a million things I was struggling with! I have no more headaches, better sleep, higher energy throughout the day etc. I would also like to note I started seeing the most changes physically after 6 months of work. This also happened to be when I got pregnant and that did NOT stop the progress. I feel better now while expecting a baby than I have in a long time!!"
"There has been so much improvement. I came not having a clue how to fix all these things. I had worked with a naturopath doctor, traditional doctor, a dietician, and holistic nutritionist. Hardly anything changed or improved. From the start I could tell a difference. Some wins: depression is gone, brain fog is gone, afternoon slump is gone, insulin resistance is gone, sleeping through the night, lost 20 lbs, PMS is gone! The testing was different, the game plan was fully laid out and available to me. There wasn’t a ton of run around. What you told me to do worked, simple as that!"
The real reason you’re still stuck isn’t because you’re not trying hard enough — it’s because you haven’t had a clear, personalized roadmap built around your body’s unique needs.
You deserve better than guesswork.
You deserve a plan that’s rooted in real data, customized to your life, and designed for actual, sustainable results — not just short-term symptom relief.
My goal was to get answers that showed something other than being told “your bloodwork is normal." I wanted to find the root cause of joint pain in my knees, fix my stomach pain / stomach issues, and clear my skin. My joint pain has dramatically decreased, my digestion is so much better, my acne has 100% cleared, I've learned how to nourish my body.
I’ve loved working with Fueled & Free Nutrition! My practitioner has been so helpful and understanding. She really dug deep into my concerns and did an excellent job to address my test results and consider my symptoms. I’ve really enjoyed all of her clean product recommendations that are not only free of toxins but also really work well. I am so thankful to be free from the terrible headaches and to have enough energy to play with my kids again. I feel very confident with the tools I have that I can continue to get better and stay healthy. This has been life changing!
The support and thorough feedback during this time together has been invaluable! Everything was in depth and tailored for what my body needed and it allowed me to find the roadblocks in my healing and support my body accordingly! Margaret was always there when I had questions or needed extra support!
This team didn’t just change my life but created a rippling effect of bringing happiness, peace and joy to my 12 year old son, my husband of 17 years, my 80 year old mother and another 50 members of my family who was deeply concerned and felt helpless. I am beyond grateful, blessed and empowered to be able to shift more of my focus back on my family especially my son. I am certain that the rich knowledge I was taught and being able to be my best version of myself will continue on to bless generations. Thank you from the Johnson family!
The unexpected breakthrough was understanding the amount of stress I'm in. I didn't know how it affected my body, that it had been going on for years, and that all the problems I got with gut, hormones, and fibroids are the result of the stress. I'm slowly changing my entire life to reduce stress levels and manage it better. It's like a puzzle started to come together for me. It's one of the turning points in my life!
Overall, this program has been life changing for my health. Not only did I receive clarity about what my specific issues were, but also clear instruction about how to achieve my health goals. I felt supported through the entire process. I’m very happy I decided to invest in my health through this program!
And you’ve probably already tried “eating clean,” adding a probiotic, or doing another gut cleanse. But if that was enough, then you wouldn’t be here seeking more answers. The truth is, surface-level fixes are not going to heal root-level imbalances. What you actually need to get to the bottom of your symptoms is a personalized and strategic root cause approach that's based on real data from your body.
We use advanced functional lab testing to uncover the missing pieces — and create personalized, strategic protocols so you can finally heal from the inside out.
The HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) test is a simple, non-invasive test that gives us a deeper look at your mineral levels and what’s going on inside your body long-term. Minerals are everything when it comes to energy, digestion, skin, metabolism—you name it. This test helps us see where things are off and what your body actually needs to function at its best.
Energy: If you’re crashing by 2 PM and craving caffeine and sugar, it’s probably not just your schedule—it’s your minerals. Magnesium and other key minerals are essential for energy, and when you're depleted, your body lets you know. HTMA shows us exactly what you’re missing so we can fix the root cause—not just patch it with caffeine.
Gut health: Struggling with bloating or constipation? Minerals like zinc, sodium, potassium play a big role in gut health. If they’re out of whack, your digestion will be too. This test helps identify and address those imbalances.
Weight loss: If weight loss feels harder than it should, minerals might be the missing piece. After stress or pregnancy, your metabolism takes a hit—and it needs minerals to bounce back.
Hormones: If you’re dealing with PMS, irregular cycles, or mood swings, your hormones might not be the only thing out of balance—your minerals play a huge role too. Minerals impact hormone production and detox. HTMA shows us where you’re depleted so we can support your body in actually balancing hormones.
The GI Map is a stool test that analyzes your gut health by identifying potential imbalances in your microbiome. It gives us detailed insights into what's going on in your gut—everything from harmful bacteria to digestive function.
Digestion: Struggling with bloating, gas, or constipation? The GI-MAP test looks at gut inflammation, enzyme function, and leaky gut—so we can stop guessing and start fixing. It helps us pinpoint the actual root cause of what’s throwing off your digestion.
Weight Management: Your gut might be the missing piece in troubleshooting weight gain. The GI-MAP looks at things like inflammation, gut bugs, and how well you're digesting and absorbing food. This test helps us find the hidden imbalances keeping your body stuck.
Hormones: Hormone issues like estrogen dominance or low progesterone often start in the gut. The GI-MAP looks at bacteria, liver stress, and how well you’re clearing hormones. If your gut’s not working right, your hormones won’t be either. This test shows us where the breakdown is—so we can fix it at the root.
We've got you! We offer optional advanced testing (Dutch Hormone Panel, bloodwork recommendations, food sensitivity testing, etc.) available exclusively to our 1:1 clients at a discounted price.

I struggled with horrific acne, irregular periods, awful PMS, anxiety, bloating & gut issues and after being told to get back on birth control and take prescriptions for my acne, I took my health into my own hands.
I found solutions, answers and hope and put my process and methodology into a program that uses a food first approach paired with the insights of functional lab testing. Since then, I’ve made it my mission to share this knowledge to empower more women to feel good in their bodies for generations to come!
My team and I have helped hundreds of women heal their hormones, improve their thyroid, improve their fertility, fix their digestion, clear their skin, brain fog and more.

Aleece is an experienced nutritional practitioner with education from the Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner Program (FDN-P). She found the functional health space in an effort to heal her own chronic health issues.
Her journey started as a young teen with awful acne and life shattering menstrual cycles. This led to multiple rounds of acne medications, with antibiotics and birth control sprinkled in every few months. She knows what it's like to deal with constant stomach pain, gallbladder attacks, hair loss, chronic fatigue. After 6 years, 10+ doctors and 3 surgeries, she knew she needed a different approach, and found healing Practitioner to run labs and show me what my body couldn't tell me.

You can expect more clarity and data on what's happening in your body, than you've ever had access to before. You can expect weekly check ins from your practitioner and you'll meet with your practitioner via zoom monthly to work through your protocol. We create a protocol based on your personal goals, symptoms, and lab results. You can expect dramatic improvements in energy, reduction in period related symptoms, better digestion, moods, sleep and more.
When you enroll, we'll send you intake forms to complete and you can request on your intake form which practitioner you want to work with. Otherwise we'll set you up with the practitioner that's the best fit for you based on your health history, symptoms and goals. Margaret is the lead practitioner and reviews client lab results, protocols and the Fueled & Free Team collaborates on client cases regularly.
After the program ends, you'll have the opportunity to enroll into our month to month membership where you get continued 1:1 support via chat, a monthly 1:1 zoom call, continued protocol reviews and more for $597 a month. It's basically an extension of our 1:1 program. Most of our clients work with us for 4-6 months.
Nope! You have enough on your plate. We do host monthly group calls for those that need additional support. These calls vary between Q & A style and mindset calls where we do things like journaling and nervous system related practices.
Yes! We will work with you if you are taking a GLP 1 peptide like Ozempic, Wegovy, Tirzepatide, etc. We'll help make sure you are supporting your metabolic foundations from a nutrition + mineral standpoint, digestion, and lifestyle habits like strength training, etc. We've seen tremendous results in those who choose to microdose GLP 1 peptides and have found them to be helpful lowering food noise, inflammation, while addressing the body holistically.
We don’t believe in restrictive diets or eliminating tons of foods (we love protein, fat and carbs!) HOWEVER some do need to avoid certain foods (ex. gluten or sugar) when we are working on lowering inflammation or eradicating certain pathogens in the gut. Long term, the goal is to not be on a restrictive diet that has you avoiding certain foods. You’ll get recommendations for hormone-friendly functional foods to enjoy and a handful of problematic foods to avoid. That said, depending on your unique needs, we may provide specific dietary guidelines (i.e. amount of protein/carbs to consume, low histamine diet, etc.). We share lots of ideas for you with recipes, sample meal plans, and more.
Yes! We work with clients who are pregnant or newly postpartum / breastfeeding.
As a busy woman myself, I had other busy women (like you) in mind when creating the program. Your protocol / game plan will require intention with your nutrition choices, taking supplements and incorporating certain lifestyle / detox strategies that will take no more than 30 minutes a day. We do recommend that you carve out time on a weekly basis once or twice a week to have a plan for eating, ex. prepping protein options, on the go breakfast options, making certain foods ahead to avoid overwhelm with eating.
Most of our clients are action takers, are juggling careers and children and get incredible results by implementing what they learn, taking targeted supplements, and making intentional, daily efforts to support their metabolic health.
