Lacy Lain, BCFHP, LEHP, FMCHC

Founder & President

Lacy is a board-certified Functional Health Practitioner and the founder of the Lain Institute of Functional & Natural Health Sciences. With a deep calling to restore Biblical foundations to the field of holistic wellness, Lacy has helped thousands of Christian women reclaim their health by addressing the root causes of hormone imbalance, fatigue, digestive issues, and chronic symptoms.

Her clinical approach combines functional medicine, lifestyle-based healing, and functional labs, always grounded in God’s original design for the body. Lacy is passionate about teaching students how to steward their health through Scripture, science, and simple, sustainable steps. She is known for making complex concepts clear, relatable, and actionable, while never straying from Biblical truth.

In addition to running a thriving virtual practice and signature program (Functional Hormone Reset), Lacy mentors and equips the next generation of Christian health professionals to confidently step into their calling as health educators, and leaders in the natural health space

Shaela Daugherty, CPT, PN1, RP L1, RevWell Instructor, YogaFit L1, PPCES

Co-Founder & Vice President

Shaela Daugherty is a Christian Fitness Coach and founder of SD Fit Well, where she helps women create sustainable health rhythms rooted in strength, whole foods, and faith. With certifications in personal training (CPT), Precision Nutrition (PN1), Renaissance Periodization (RP L1), and prenatal/postpartum corrective exercise, she brings both depth and approachability to everything she teaches. She’s also a certified Revelation Wellness Instructor and former CrossFit L1 coach—so whether you’re just getting started or you’ve been in the game for years, she’ll meet you with both grit and grace.

In this certification, Shaela leads the way in functional fitness and habit-building—emphasizing small, consistent rhythms that support real-life callings (not just physique goals). Her teaching is grounded in the belief that dis-ease in our daily rhythms often leads to disease in the body—and that the way back to health is simpler (and more sacred) than we think. From rhythm dials to functional strength circuits, she equips health professionals to help clients build lives they don’t have to escape from—without obsessing over perfection.

Shaela’s joy is helping women wake up—physically and spiritually—to the strength they’ve been given in Christ. And if you hang around long enough, she might just remind you (with love) that burpees are biblical... sort of. 😉

Brittany Braswell, MS, RDN

Instructor

Brittany is a Registered Dietitian and Christ-centered food freedom and body image coach. She’s the go-to guide for women who are beyond tired of food and body drama stealing the spotlight in their lives.

Her message is clear: a woman’s worth isn’t measured by her weight, willpower, or whether she chose the kale salad or the fries. (Spoiler: she believes there’s room for both.)

She helps women reclaim their identity, rooted in Christ, not in a number on the scale, the tag on their jeans, or the latest wellness trend. Because when that truth sinks deep into the heart? Everything starts to shift.

For those caught in the exhausting cycle of “good” vs. “bad” foods, constant body checking, or silently wondering why they don’t have it all figured out yet, she offers a steady, grace-filled hand. They’re not crazy. And they’re definitely not alone.

In her work, toxic food rules are left behind. The lies of the Enemy are called out. And truth, strategy, and grace take their place.

She equips women to walk away from food guilt, body shame, and the pressure to force themselves into “loving their body” as a performance. Because real peace can’t be forced... It’s received.

This isn’t a call to perfection. It’s a path toward peace.
It’s about showing up nourished- body, mind, and spirit.
And it’s about finally living the joy-filled life they were created for.

Tracy Erin, RN, BSN, IHP2

Instructor

Tracy Erin is a Registered Nurse, Integrative Health Practitioner, proud homeschool mom of five, and loving wife. As the founder of The Balanced Hormone Solution, where she helps women 35+ decode their symptoms, rebalance their hormones, and reclaim vibrant energy—without guesswork, shame, or bandaid solutions.

After walking through her own dark night of burnout and healing, she made it her mission to show women that they are not broken—they’re just out of balance. Through a powerful blend of functional medicine, strategic nutrition, nervous system support, and transformational thinking, she empowers women to rise, reset, and return home to themselves.

Inside her world, you’ll find deep education, radical compassion, and zero fluff. She doesn't sugarcoat the truth—but she never shames it either. Healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about powerful alignment. 

When she's not helping women elevate their lives, you’ll find her living out her greatest calling—raising my incredible family, creating a life rooted in faith, freedom, and fierce joy.
