With a mission to empower, mentor, and guide high-level athletes, retired athletes, and military/veterans, Fit Intuit offers a range of services aimed at fostering optimal performance and holistic wellness.

Theresa’s journey has been marked by remarkable achievements and profound challenges. From her days as a competitive gymnast to her service in the U.S. Army and later struggles with health issues, she has faced and overcome numerous obstacles. These experiences have shaped her passion for helping others achieve balance and wellness in their lives. Through Fit Intuit, Theresa combines her expertise in functional medicine, mindfulness meditation, and her unique understanding of the challenges faced by athletes and military personnel to provide a comprehensive approach to health and performance.

Theresa explains, “At Fit Intuit, we believe in a whole-person approach to wellness. This means looking beyond just physical fitness and considering the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each individual. My goal is to empower clients to connect with their inner wisdom and find balance in all areas of their lives.”

Theresa’s Background:
Theresa’s athletic career began at the young age of 2 1/2, eventually leading to her becoming the 1996 Olympic Team Alternate in gymnastics and a 3-time NCAA Champion at the University of Utah. These accomplishments are a testament to her dedication, discipline, and ability to perform under pressure.

After completing her gymnastics career, Theresa pursued a career in medicine, earning her degree as a Physician Assistant (PA) from the University of Utah in 2007. She served as a PA in the Army from 2009 to 2012, where she deployed to Tikrit, Iraq, with the 4th Infantry Division. It was during her time in the military that she witnessed firsthand the toll that high-stress environments can take on both the body and mind.

Following her military service, Theresa faced significant health challenges that led her to explore mindfulness, meditation, and functional medicine. These practices became integral to her healing journey, and she eventually completed the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program with renowned teachers Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. She also completed the ADAPT Functional Medicine Practitioner Program with Chris Kresser, further deepening her understanding of holistic wellness.
