Ariel Griglin
Health & Fitness Coach
Ariel became a NASM-certified personal trainer in 2012. The early part of her career was shaped by the world of bodybuilding, where she earned recognition as a top Fitness Model across the U.S. and Canada. She worked with many clients in the same fashion, helping them achieve lean, sculpted physiques.
In 2017, everything changed. Her life was shaken by death and divorce, prompting her to question the concept of resistance—not only in her life, but within the heavily regimented resistance training she had built her career on. This marked the beginning of a deeper awakening and a shift toward healing the body at its source.
During this time, she reconnected with her true calling. Her youth, spent in hospitals alongside her parents, had instilled in her a desire to heal in a way that created real answers—not more questions.
In 2018, Ariel became one of a select group of coaches to be a part of Healer Nation. She was trained in the Metabolic Reboot, an advanced protocol implemented in medical and fitness centers across the country. Since then, she has helped countless women restore balance to their thyroid, hormones, and immune system—especially those who had struggled with their weight for years and felt out of options.
During the COVID-19 shutdown, Ariel expanded her work virtually, supporting corporate teams and executives in creating healthier work environments, improving productivity, and enhancing cognitive performance.
In 2023, her next calling emerged: Becoming Lighter Retreats. These national and international experiences are intimate and deeply transformative. Women are immersed in natural environments—free from synthetics, toxins, and digital distraction—allowing for profound connection while nourishing their bodies in unique locations.
Ariel is only just getting started in her mission to light up the world.
