ELEVATE
Your
Health
Health and wellness can be overwhelming.
With SO many conflicting messages, too many platforms to get information from, and changing views on what ‘healthy’ is, it’s really hard to figure out how and where to start your health journey.
That's where we come in!
As Naturopathic Doctors, both my sister Dr. Michelle and I can understand the challenges of taking the first steps toward a healthier life. That is why we created Elevate Your Health!
If you are ready to learn simple evidence-based ways to start your journey to feeling like an energized, strong, and confident version of yourself then it’s time to do a happy dance and give yourself a high five because you’ve come to the right place!
Elevate Your Health is focused on helping you learn and implement foundations of optimal gut and hormone health so that you can have the energy and confidence to live the life you dream of.
Through the 8 modules, you will be introduced to and immersed in the very important foundations of optimal health. Dr. Michelle and I (Dr. Janea) will guide you through small, sustainable changes that will leave you feeling in charge and in power of your health and wellbeing, so that you have balanced moods, elevated energy, and more calm in your everyday life allowing you to be the best version of yourself and enjoy your life to the fullest.
Our goal with creating this program is to help you implement sustainable, long lasting lifestyle, mindset and nutritional changes that will activate and elevate your health for today, tomorrow and years to come. We will be educating you on evidence-based approaches to nourishing your body so that you can begin to understand why these foundational habits are so important to your health. We are taking the guess-work out of health and empowering you by providing reputable, researched information that we use in our own lives and in the lives of our patients each day. Our background and education provides us with the advantage of understanding and having access to many research papers, medical journals, and other evidence-based resources. We can interpret the information into a format that is easily understood and applied in your life
What to expect...
This program will have a number of benefits but a few of the key improvements you will notice are:
- Increased energy - You will have more physical and mental energy which will increase your productivity, help you accomplish your tasks and work with ease and efficiency, give you the energy to make time for you, and allow you to be more present at the end of the day with your family, friends or to focus on those extra things you WANT to do.
- Increased resilience to stress - Creating better responses to stress will allow you to feel more calm throughout the day, have a clear mind to be able to troubleshoot problems that arise, be less reactive and more responsive, and feel mentally and emotionally lighter without stress bogging you down.
- Quality sleep - Improving your sleep will not only give you more energy, it will help support your body’s natural healing abilities which take place during sleep. You will be able to be more present in daily life, no longer defaulting to ‘auto pilot’, you will be more productive in daily tasks and work, have more energy throughout the day and into the evening.
- Enhanced digestion- Digestion and gut health are important for many reason. By improving your digestion you will feel more energized and nourished, reduce brain fog and regain mental clarity and focus, feel more physically energized and confident and feel more comfortable in your body.
Elevate Your Health was created by Dr. Janea Wright, ND, and Dr. Michelle Gaucher, ND and you can work through this course at your own pace.
Each week, there is a video where Dr. Janea and Dr. Michelle cover a topic that will help you create new habits. These topics and habits build off each other and lead you to a healthier, more empowered and energized life. Each lesson has simple, easily implementable action items and homework that will begin to create these new habits. You will be responsible for making these small sustainable changes that become habits in your days so that it doesn’t feel like a chore to choose the healthier options.
This program isn’t a quick-fix. You will be making small adjustments and changes throughout the 10-weeks which will create long lasting habits that you can maintain for years to come after the program ends.
Nutrition: Food is the fuel for our body and how we fuel it impacts it’s function. We will educate you on optimal nutrition and how to make small changes and adjustments to improve the nutritional value of your meals.
Stress management: Stress impacts our health in many ways. Changing the way we respond to stress can have a huge impact on our mental and physical health and needs to be addressed.
Sleep: Without proper sleep we cannot heal properly which can add to a whole host of disease processes. It also makes it more challenging for us to deal with stress and to have the energy to exercise and eat properly which can lead to suboptimal health. We will educate you on how to improve your sleep habits in order to get more quality sleep.
Movement: Incorporating movement is very important for mental and physical health. In this day and age many people have a hard time getting enough or the right type of movement for their bodies. Movement doesn’t need to be an hour long gym session, we will discuss ways for you to add movement that you enjoy and that is sustainable in your life.
Health care: Gain knowledge on supplements you could consider, and labs that can be done to investigate different symptoms including digestion issues, fatigue, insomnia, trouble losing weight etc. We want to provide you with information so that you feel more confident, in control and empowered on your health journey.

More about us
First of all - we are SO happy you are here! The Elevate Program has been a passion project of ours for a couple years now and we are excited to see it come to life! We have put a ton of our knowledge, experience, love and energy into this and we can’t wait to share it with you - but more so we can’t wait for you to feel your best!
Growing up in a health conscious family has led us both - Dr. Janea and Dr. Michelle - into naturopathic medicine and now into creating this amazing program to share our knowledge, experience, and passion about wellness and how you can elevate your health.
Dr. Janea
Hi! I’m Dr. Janea and I am passionate about helping women have more energy, stabilize mood, balance hormones, and improve digestive and gut health through the use of naturopathic medicine and acupuncture so they can enjoy more time and activities with their families, feel more confident, and feel like the best version of themselves. I live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan with my husband and two young boys. My naturopathic medical practice is in Saskatoon at Lead Integrated Health Therapies. My passion for naturopathic medicine started at a young age when I was diagnosed with a rare genetic form of diabetes. This diagnosis has taught me so much about medicine and health and now I love to teach people about optimal nutrition and balancing blood sugar. I am passionate and so very excited about getting this information out to many people which is why I decided to start this online program as a way to reach and impact more people looking to elevate their health.
Dr. Michelle
Hi! I’m Dr. Michelle Gaucher and my passion is helping women look & feel their best so they can THRIVE and kick ass in their busy lives while feeling energized and inspired. I’m a naturopathic doctor currently practising in Victoria, BC at Focus Health clinic where I work with women from all different stages of life in optimizing gut, brain and hormonal health. Naturopathic medicine peaked my interest when I was completing my undergraduate degree in physiology and pharmacology. I knew I wanted to have a career in healthcare so I could help people be healthier and enjoy their lives. I was really passionate about preventative medicine and seeking a deeper form of healing than what I was learning. So with the added bonus and inspiration of my sister going to naturopathic medical school, it was an easy decision. I love what I do and love working with my patients to help them achieve their health goals! That’s why I’m excited to share this knowledge to a larger audience so that we can help more women!
Each of us brings our own unique approach and perspective to this program which truly elevates the level of information and impact we can have! Dr. Michelle’s zone of genius
Her zone of genius is working with young women dealing with period problems and women in the perimenopause and post-menopause stages of their lives while Dr. Janea’s zone of genius is women in earlier stages of their reproductive health journey such as PMS, pre-conception, and post-partum. Combining both of their expertise, they are able to provide information that is applicable for women at any age and stage of life. As a mom of two young boys, Dr. Janea knows the struggles of balancing motherhood, a career, a marriage, and everything in between, and Dr. Michelle understands the challenges of being a career-driven newly-wed and the struggles that come with those changes as well.
