Roz has a degree in law and was working as a paralegal when she decided to embrace and pursue her life’s passions. Roz is committed to dispelling dieting industry myths and dismantling the fear they have created about certain types of food. If you can’t enjoy a donut or some ice cream any day of the week then you need to break yourself out of your diet and live life again! Roz’s coaching approach is holistic as she believes that improving your nutrition is not just about improving the quality of the food you eat, but it’s also about rebuilding a healthy relationship with food and a loving respect for your body.

Prior to starting Own Your Eating, Roz was a personal trainer, yoga instructor & Crossfit coach in the Cayman Islands. Roz has been successful in improving the quality of life of people of all ages in aspects of fitness and nutrition.

Roz’s vast experience with dieting as a teenager and adult, ultimately fed her thirst for knowledge on the subject of nutrition. Her CrossFit Level 1 training sparked that interest further and she decided to continue her education with Precision Nutrition (PN). After completing her Level 1 she then enrolled and has subsequently completed the year-long PN Level 2 certification.

Rozlyn not only has a thorough understanding of the scientific aspects of nutrition but she understands the psychology and vast array of complexities we can experience with food. Roz is passionate about sharing her experiences and her knowledge of flexible eating so she can help others feel liberated with their food choices and in control of their health.

Dustin grew up with a love for sports and staying active. From being on a competitive traveling basketball team, to football, board sports, triathlons and everything in between. He worked through high school as a fitness instructor at a local gym and taught rock wall climbing.

Naturally, with his competitive and active background, food had always fueled his performance. But it wasn’t until he found CrossFit at the end of 2008 that his interest in nutrition became an area of study for him. He began using his body as its own laboratory in experimenting with different diets. This only highlighted to him the importance nutrition plays in performance, sleep, stress and recovery. Dustin eventually began offering more to his personal training clients by helping them with their nutrition too.

Fast forward to present day; Dustin has owned two successful CrossFit affiliates. He travels the globe with the CrossFit HQ Seminar staff where he has the opportunity to spread the CrossFit training methodologies to aspiring coaches and athletes. Heloves being a part of his members’ journey toward more self-awareness and confidence as a result of training and nutrition.

Between balancing family, business, shift work and training, Dustin says it’s an art he is constantly working to improve and refine.

Jen believes that balancing a lifestyle of mindfulness, nutrition, fitness and a sound support system is the key to success inside and outside of the gym. She is passionate about working with people, no matter where they are in their current journey, to help them achieve their true happy balance!

Because of her own experiences, she is passionate about helping educate others to find sustainable methods of achieving their health, body, and fitness goals. J-flo believes that although fitness and athletics play an important role in a person’s overall health, nutrition is undoubtedly the foundation upon which health is built.

For J-Flo, the most rewarding aspect of coaching her nutrition clients is helping them to redefine their relationship with food and understand the concept of nutrition as a ‘lifestyle’ rather than a ‘diet’. J-Flo knows just how transformative this can be mentally and emotionally, and how powerful that transformation can be in unlocking a client’s true potential, athletically, aesthetically, and in everyday life.

At the time she had no idea what she was doing with school. She was the girl going to college because it was the “right” thing to do. She had no plan and was constantly switching career paths. About a year later Keirstein decided to quit school when she realized that fitness and health were where her passion lay. Keirstein loved what she learnt in the CrossFit community and from her coaches a the box. She learnt how to eat to fuel her body, she performed better and felt amazing and couldn’t believe that all this could be achieved without having to suffer some insane strict diet. Keirstein decided to intern at North Naples CrossFit and also enroll for the Precision Nutrition certification so that she could pursue her passions and help others enjoy the same quality of life she now experiences every day. Keirstein’s own experiences with health and fitness have made her realize how impactful nutrition is in many facets of our lives. Finding flexible eating has provided clarity to her nutrition where it used to be fraught with confusion. Keirstein is excited to help others implement this lifestyle and be the support system they need on their journeys. Look good, feel good and don’t suffer to get there.

Growing up as a wrestler and a soccer player, nutrition and fitness has always been a huge part of Mike’s life. In high school Mike’s parents called him “the food police” for always making sure everyone ate “the right way”! ?

Once Mike graduated college as a 4-year athlete he became a PE teacher and a varsity wrestling coach. Mike left the teaching scene in 2009 to pursue CrossFit and entrepreneurial endeavors. During that time, Mike opened and managed several CrossFit affiliates, including CrossFit King of the Beach, CrossFit King of Island Park and CrossFit 610. Mike was also the head coach at Crossfit Invictus Boston.

Fast forward to present day, and Mike has gone back to his former passion of leading and inspiring kids and young adults in his role as a PE teacher.

In his spare time, Mike continues to coach competitive and non-competitive individuals, helping them get the most from their fitness and nutrition! Mike is excited to share his experience and knowledge and support you on your way to becoming your best you!

Laura ran track in high school and tried to stay in shape with various fitness classes and distance running through her early 20’s. In 2015, after moving to a new city, she walked into her first CrossFit box. She quickly realized the way she was eating was not fueling her workouts properly and thus began her love of all things nutrition.

Overtime, Laura has learned that consistency, developing strong habits and learning to love the process are keys to a successful lifelong relationship with food.  She understands that nutrition is so much more than the food on your plate.  It’s how we connect with family, comfort friends and fuel workouts.  It’s at the core of our shared experiences and even more reason to learn to foster a healthy relationship with it and create habits that last a lifetime.

With a background in science, and a constantly growing obsession with all things health & fitness related, Laura is deeply passionate about sharing her nutrition knowledge with clients so that they have a better understanding and enjoyment of the foods they eat. She believes everyone has the power to take control of their nutrition and reach their own highest level of health and she is here to help guide you along that journey.
