Sonia works with clients all over the world. Having grown up just outside Tamworth,  Sonia has a down-to-earth approach and appreciates that regional clients don’t always have access to the same range of food, supplements and healthcare services as city folk.  She strives to support her clients wherever they are and whatever budget they are on. Sonia had an early career in recruitment which she also thoroughly enjoyed, She owned her own boutique agency for 10 years before following her passion to help others on their wellness journey. Instead of career goals, she now discusses all manner of personal questions with her clients. Both jobs require mutual trust and asking lots of questions!  Sonia is based in the Northern Beaches and holds an Advanced Diploma in Nutritional Medicine from Nature Care College and a Bachelor of Health Science - Complementary Medicine (with Distinctions) from Charles Sturt.<br/>Connect with Sonia<br/>www.balancedlifenutrition.com.au<br/><br/>Shownotes and references available on your local Designs for Health website<br/>www.designsforhealth.com.au<br/><br/>Register as a Designs for Health Practitioner and discover quality practitioner-only supplements at www.designsforhealth.com.au<br/>Follow us on SocialsInstagram: DesignsforhealthausFacebook: Designsforhealthaus<br/>DISCLAIMER: The Information provided in the Wellness by Designs podcast is for educational purposes only; the information presented is not intended to be used as medical advice; Please seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional if what you have heard here today raises questions or concerns relating to your health
