How do we create health?
Put simply take out all the bad stuff and put in more of the good stuff that I will teach you about!
Our bodies have a powerful innate healing system. We simply need to activate it by removing and avoiding the negative inputs that impact our body, and instead, only provide what our body needs to function optimally.
I’m here to support you to take better care of yourself, and coach you on how to be healthy all on your own without having to pay expensive "experts".
Seriously… spreading knowledge to help you reach your health goals through my coaching is my passion, so I’m all in.
To this day, my favourite thing to do is work one-on-one with my clients and talk about the micro changes they can make to their nutrition to give them back their health.
Inspiring people like you to take up a healthy lifestyle, is what I live for. It’s where I get to have a massive impact. Through my health consulting, organic cafe and online wellness classes & courses, I seek to inspire and empower busy Mums + Dads with their wellness goals.
A Wake-Up Call to a More Intentional Life
A decade ago, I made a promise to myself—before turning 50, I wanted a slower, more meaningful life, built on authentic connections and a commitment to service.
At 42, I had a realization: my daily thoughts and habits were shaping my life, and I was stuck on autopilot. I knew change was necessary. By being intentional, I could create the life and business I truly wanted. So, I pushed myself to wake up—to shift my habits and take conscious steps toward a life of purpose and freedom.
I wanted financial independence without compromising who I was. My passion for natural wellness led me to earn certifications in Health Coaching & Nutrition from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and Advanced Aromatherapy from The Center for Excellence. From that moment on, I immersed myself in health and wellness, continuously learning and sharing ways to help others thrive.
This journey seamlessly wove into my existing social enterprise ventures, which I’ve successfully run for over 20 years in Northern Vietnam. Now, my work blends business, purpose, and well-being—creating a life of impact, connection, and true freedom.

Helping You Build a Stronger, Healthier You
As a Foundational Well-being Coach, I guide busy people like you in making simple, sustainable changes that boost energy, confidence, and vitality.
It all begins with a solid nutritional foundation—because food shapes every aspect of our well-being. Prioritizing fresh, whole foods over processed options isn’t about restriction; it’s about nourishment.
Movement matters too, but it doesn’t have to mean intense workouts. The key is finding activities that energize you, lift your mood, and make you feel good in your body.
Health isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey. By tuning into your unique needs and making small, consistent shifts, you can create a vibrant, balanced life—one step at a time.

During this thing called life, if we are fortunate enough to meet people who profoundly have an impact on our life, can meet us where we are at, and genuinely care about us, we are indeed blessed. This is Pete Wilkes.
Supportive, caring, and pushes me to do better, to be better. Working with Pete isn't work, it is fun, we laugh, we cry, and we help people in need. How great is that!
dōTERRA essential oils and personal care products have elevated my health. To have tools to support my health and the health of my family is invaluable. My toolbox can address most health issues that come our way. Nontoxic living is important to me and having personal care and household products that are safe and nontoxic is the key to overall health and longevity.
I can not imagine not having natural solutions in my life. There is an oil for just about every condition. And having the knowledge to use doTERRA products and oils for both my family and my clients is a gift I get to give every single day. So grateful.
I too am still exploring, evolving and looking for new ways to appreciate clean, whole living myself and I hope you’ll be inspired to do the same throughout our time together.
I’ve been sensitive my whole life.
I’ve always been a sensitive guy—sensitive belly, sensitive skin…I even cried during Finding Nemo.
As a kid, I was constantly dealing with mysterious red, patchy skin that had no clear cause. By sixteen, when I moved to Tokyo for school, my Japanese sponsor family took turns driving me to doctors in Yokohama, trying to find answers. No one ever could, and my symptoms only got worse.
By 22, living downtown in Tokyo, I was a mess—constant hay fever, itchy rashes, and breakouts that wouldn’t quit. I was already on two heavy-duty medicated treatments when my dermatologist prescribed a new corticosteroid cream. But the moment I applied it, my scalp went into full meltdown. Sound familiar?
This continued for all my
Adult life until I hit 40
By 45, I was determined to be a different person, and by 50, I wanted a different life. I went back to study holistic health and nutrition, building on my years in fitness and wellness. Through diet tweaks, gut health resets, and ditching toxic products, I finally calmed my allergies and eczema—something doctors had only treated with steroids and lotions for years.
Healing myself felt empowering, and I became passionate about helping others take control of their health without relying on expensive “experts.” After years of study, I understand how gut health impacts skin, and now, I rarely need a doctor.
In my early 40s, I was flying from Hanoi to Bangkok every three months for steroid treatments that left me feeling dependent—hooked on creams instead of pills. Owning an organic café only made the guilt worse. Those painful years of inflamed, itchy skin were my rock bottom. I couldn't keep doing it. The prescribed treatments that were supposed to help had turned my life into a nightmare.
So I quit—cold turkey.
I stopped using every skin-care product and medication overnight. I thought, *I own an organic café in Hanoi—why can’t I heal my skin with natural products instead of synthetic creams and medications?* It was my last, desperate attempt at relief. I had been researching pure essential oils and started using Frankincense, a quality probiotic, whole-food digestive enzymes, and nutritional supplements to nourish my body from the inside out. I fed my customers the best produce from my farm, so why wasn’t I doing the same for myself?
The results were shocking—relief came almost instantly. That first month without chemical products or corticosteroid creams, my symptoms improved. The next month, I felt even better. I kept waiting for my eczema triggers to return, but they never did.
With my certification in holistic health and nutrition, I now understand that 80% of skin issues stem from gut health. Think of an iceberg—your skin is the 20% above the surface, while the 80% below represents your gut. Once I focused on healing my gut, everything changed.
I cleaned up my diet, added whole-food enzymes, and watched my eczema disappear. No more triggers. No more guessing. I eliminated toxic household cleaners, swapped my laundry and kitchen detergents, and removed the hidden chemical toxins in my home.
This is a game-changer, and we’re going to dive deep into it together.
These days
I work with people like you to show you how to eat healthy and move your body so you can feel better. You already know that good food and fitness are medicine. Yet somehow, the idea of removing toxic products from your home hasn’t crossed over into your conversations about health triggers.
Ingredients like preservatives and synthetic chemicals—so infamous in food—don’t seem to carry the same reputation when they’re in your household products. And most importantly, no one talks about how bioavailable supplements, which increase your macro and micronutrients and provide your body with healthy fats, are exactly what you need for optimal health.
So I found my mission.
I launched my Foundational Well-being coaching company, NourishedbyPete, in 2018. These days, I teach workshops about my own skin healing journey and the lessons I’ve learned. I give weekly classes about plant medicine and holistic natural wellness.
Over the years, these classes have grown into a thriving community. I still can’t get over the fact that NourishedbyPete is now in 47 countries and expanding. People like you are finding natural solutions to heal your pain.
To this day, my favorite thing to do is work one-on-one with my clients, sharing the changes I made to my nutrition that gave me back my health.
Through my ReNew You program, thousands have ditched junky skin-care and household products, cleaning up their lifestyles with new, healthy habits.
My ultimate goal is to get you to think about mainstream household and skin-care products the way you think about packaged food—full of preservatives, unnecessary ingredients, and nasty chemicals.
I want to encourage you to remove the hormone-disrupting chemicals in your home that have been linked to eczema, reproductive disorders, asthma, and severe allergies. I want you to understand that so much of what you’ve been told and sold isn’t true—and that your ability to live a healthy, happy life is completely in your hands.
How to begin?
For you… let’s take this journey in manageable steps. I don’t want you to feel like you have to stop doing anything you love—I just want to help you get to a place where you no longer need the chemicals in your home that are disrupting your health. I want you to feel like an expert on your own body, to take what you learn from our time together and go deeper, applying it to your daily life in practical, simple ways.
My ReNew You Program will show you how to become an expert on yourself—your body and your skin. You'll feel like the boss, fully in control, and best of all, you'll stop stressing about how to have healthy, glowing skin once and for all. How amazing would that be?
And the best part? It’s not even going to be that hard.
This is about things you already know deep down. As you go through the process, you’ll find yourself thinking, Ohhhhh, of course.
I’m living proof that you can figure out what’s best for your health with the right support—just like the thousands of others I’ve worked with, and even the countless people I’ve never met who have realized that going back to the basics and removing toxic triggers is the key to living a healthier, happier life.
So, here's how it's gonna go
We will dive deep into food because a clean, nutrient-rich diet is the foundation of lasting health and vitality. But beyond that, you’ll also explore the hidden dangers lurking in your household products—those sneaky chemicals that could be affecting your well-being without you even realizing it.
Once you uncover these factors, I’ll guide you through a full-body detox to help reset your foundation and get your health back on track.
