Tara Dukart,
Health & Habit-Setting Coach
Tara Dukart knows how challenging it can be to make changes to habits & routines, especially if they’ve been years or decades in the making. Stress, past hurts & struggles keep us believing things that hold us captive and negatively affect our thoughts, words, actions & relationships. Tara believes everyone has the right to experience optimal mental, emotional, physical & spiritual health. Although all people are perfectly made in the image of God, some of our actions & habits are not. An effective coach can help you identify necessary habit & thinking changes and help you hold yourself accountable to your goals, much like a personal trainer. Tara is an International Holistic Management Educator, Speaker & Coach. She & her husband own & operate SeekFirstRanch.com, where they work to improve health through faith-based, holistic approaches & decision-making. Tara is a former middle school teacher & current homeschooling mother of 3. She is passionate about helping women, parents & families improve the effectiveness of their communication, implement balance in their priorities & routines, and make appropriate changes to their diet or lifestyle choices to feel better, sleep better & improve quality of life.
Schedule a complimentary conversation with Tara to explore a personalized coaching option for you.

Suzie Johnson,
Therapeutic Bodywork
Suzie is a graduate of The University of Mary with a BSN in nursing and has been practicing as a Registered Nurse for the past 19 years. Areas of her nursing practice range from ER to Hospice (and everything in between). Through hospice, she learned how powerful the simple act of human touch can be on the body-mind-soul. Adding Massage Therapy to her RN license created a well-rounded health and healing approach to extend beyond the walls of a traditional healthcare setting. Suzie is an advocate for anything and everything Holistic Healing and is thrilled to be a part of the Wellness Community that YOUvitalize offers! She sees value in both Western and Eastern medicine and loves to integrate opportunities for self-healing. The human body is an extraordinary gift with endless avenues for physical/mental/emotional/spiritual growth. Our bodies were created with an innate ability to heal through self-empowerment and healing presence. Suzie grew up in rural North Dakota in a farming community and developed a deep-rooted love for mother nature’s healing treasures. Healing medicinal herbs are her passion and finding ways to incorporate them into daily lives is her mission. But above all, her family is her pride and focus of life. She is blessed with a husband of 18 years, 3 amazing kids, 2 labs and a rabbit!
