Linda Bourdelaise

Certified Livewell Coach and Wellness Educator

Gambrills, MD

Linda recently left a career as an Administrator and Learning Specialist of a private school in order to expand her life as an Entrepreneur. Team Northrup is the catalyst for this transition as a Health and Wellness Educator. Linda believes that health encompasses “physical, mental, and social well-being, and not only the absence of disease or infirmity.” (WHO, 1948) Previously, Linda had been the President of P.A.C.T, Inc., Parents And Children Together, and also in private practice as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. She has taken over a thousand students to Europe throughout the years, and continues to have a passion for travel. Now, this passion for education and travel is able to expand through her USANA business.
With Team Northrup as a new chapter in her life, Linda feels connected to her true self, while she facilitates health and inspires a path of wellness for all ages.

Elizabeth Montana Kizaki

Owner and CEO of Dream Italia Tours, Healthy Living Coach

Denver, CO

In 1998, Elizabeth was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. Due to early detection and immediate treatment she has been cancer free ever since. At that time, after reading Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom, Elizabeth states that Dr. Northrup’s expertise on the mind/body/spirit connections truly empowered her to change her life in very constructive ways, including starting her own business of developing and operating tours to Italy. “Dr. Northrup saved my life in the sense that I became aware that true health involves a balance of what we put into our bodies, what choices we make in our work and personal lives, as well as the health of our financial fitness.” In a search for a top of the line supplement Elizabeth found that USANA Health Sciences was a compelling company and produces the top rated supplements in the world. The clincher for her was the alignment with the vision of Dr. Christiane Northrup and the opportunity to become involved with Team Northrup in empowering others to become healthy both physically and financially.

Maddy Vertenten

Team Northrup Leader

Austin, TX

I am passionate about beauty, health, financial freedom, sensuality, and being a loving member of my family. When I was just twenty-something I watched my grandmothers’ lives end in poor health and too early. I’ve since developed a path of inquiry and discovered my strong belief that our bodies, minds, and spirit are interconnected; where any challenges in one area are experienced in the others. This has become powerfully important to me as a mother, a woman, a person with a huge desire to have a positive impact on the world. My atypical (and wonderful!) career path has spanned from professional violinist, working in the Atlanta music industry, in HR for aerospace, getting my MBA, developing leaders in a fortune 50 company, starting an executive coaching practice, and facilitating personal development experiences for women. I’ve discovered the golden thread in my work is living authentically and helping others connect with tools and resources to do the same. With this in mind I created Vibrant One in 2009, a blog & business designed as inspiration to create a full-spectrum life.
