Shelly Hilliard
IINHC + OTR|L • Provider
Certified Nutritionist
Shelly’s holistic approach to nutrition will help you to find the nourishment that feeds your body and your soul to help you maximize each day. Her goal as a health coach is to mentor and empower you to take control of your health by implementing proper nutrition, behavior changes, and better lifestyle choices that will contribute to the achievements of your personal wellness goals. Shelly believes in a bio-individual perspective, there is no one size fits all approach to help people reach their goals. She also believes in finding the balance in our lifestyle choices that nourish our bodies off the plate (career, relationships, physical activity, spirituality, finances, etc) and what nourishes us on our plate through our diet. Her goal is to help you find the balance between these two areas. Shelly’s love and passion for people and wellness help her to continue growing her knowledge base to help bless the people around her with the tools to assist them in living their best life on and off the plate. Shelly has been in the health care arena for 13 years.

Anna Eastburn
Provider
Registered Dietician, Board Certified in Sports Dietetics
Anna is, what one would call, a Pioneer Woman. Her path, while non-traditional and unconventional, has been anything but ordinary. Once a dance instructor and account executive turned Performance Dietitian, Anna’s road has been paved with unique work, and amazing life and food experiences that led her here to Virginia Beach. What she loves about being a dietitian is the food, the science, and the ability to investigate and problem solve.
Anna enjoys having thought provoking conversations with clients/athletes. This facilitates putting the puzzle pieces together to get to the root cause of their nutrition challenges. With this information, she devises a personalized plan to best fit their needs. She takes a practical, food first approach to nutrition, offering simple and straightforward solutions to both sports and everyday nutrition challenges. Anna considers the individual’s personal food preferences and honors their culture. She does not prescribe diets. Alternatively, she promotes a healthy lifestyle that incorporates an integrative and holistic approach consisting of high-quality nutrition, exercise, restorative sleep, self-care, and stress management with the ultimate goal of promoting strength, vitality, and longevity.
Anna’s Experience
Anna has worked in the field of nutrition for 14 years and has specialized in sports nutrition for nearly 11 of those years. She enjoys working with athletes, performing artists, military and first responders, as well as women and men who have a desire to enhance their health through nutrition.

On a personal note…
- Anna is a foodie, yogi, photographer, and jetsetter at heart. She calls Virginia Beach her hub and hits the road every chance she gets. She loves to explore our beautiful country, taking in the landscape and scenery while partaking in the culture and cuisine.
- She is a self-proclaimed culinary goddess and spends countless hours in the kitchen meal prepping and creating recipes. In a perfect world, she would build an entire house around the kitchen where her family and friends would gather to share amazing food and stories, while country music, jazz, or Broadway tunes play in the background
- When she is not working, traveling, or cooking, Anna can usually be found on the dance floor. She traded in her jazz and tap shoes for cowboy boots and has not looked back. Dancing is like breathing to her. When she’s on the dance floor, she owns it. It is her passion, her first love, and in her opinion one of the best ways to maintain a healthy body and reduce stress.
