Morgana Lakatos-Hayward

Morgana Lakatos-Hayward is a former 2x World Latin Champion with over 20 years of a highly competitive dancing background. Her struggles with dieting and weight loss, resulting in eating disorders, body dysmorphia, adenomyosis, and weight gain, were the primary fuel which prompted her career change over to health coaching.

Upon getting certified at The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, she opened her virtual health coaching practice, This Isn't a Diet, which operates in the women's health space to challenge diet culture and teach women about their bodies, intuitive and non-restrictive eating, as well as three important pillars: Hormonal health, gut health and blood sugar balancing.

Through her own experience, as well as seeing results in the numerous women she has worked with, she built a philosophy around non-restrictive bio individual eating, which entails that everyone's body requires different foods and nutrients to thrive. Morgana also centers her work around maintaining balance through the body's various systems to combat symptoms and find the root cause of problems her clients come to her with.

She furthered her reach by starting her podcast, Listen to This When You're Done Dieting, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Her new book, Read This When You're Done Dieting, will shortly be released and details her philosophy surrounding weight loss and women's health.

Morgana's mission is to empower women to ditch diet culture and take back their power to reach their body goals without dieting. Through this, she has seen happier and healthier women who have reached their goals and are more educated about their own unique bodies so they can continue to make the right choices for themselves.
