My Story
Hi, I’m Lauren, founder of Embree Wellness, a Functional Medicine Nutritionist, and an Exercise Physiologist. I hold a B.S. in Sports Management, am a graduate of The Academy of Functional Medicine, and am board-certified through the Nutritional Therapy Association.
​
As a former 2x National Champion and 5x All-American on the University of Florida Women’s Tennis Team, I finished my collegiate career ranked number 1 in the nation and went on to compete professionally on the WTA tour. In 2023, I was honored to be inducted into the Florida Hall of Fame. My experience as a collegiate and professional athlete has greatly influenced my passion for helping others optimize their bodies to feel their best every day. I believe that how we perform and show up in life is deeply connected to our physical and mental well-being.
​
My own health journey, having battled autoimmune flareups, chronic fatigue, inflammation, and poor skin and gut health, inspired my passion for holistic nutrition. Through this experience, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how simple dietary and lifestyle changes can transform your health.
​
I’m excited to help you on your journey to rebuild your body and reclaim your life!
