"Z" IS FOR ZABKA

That’s me! I’m Lori Zabka, founder of “Life by Lori Z” and the gal who’s always chatting on FB & Instagram about inflammation, broccoli, fermented vegetables, and almond milk :-)

My journey into the professional world of wellness was a winding road….which oddly began with my music career. My first big record deal changed my life—but not in the way you might imagine. To prepare for an upcoming tour, my music label teamed me up with a nutritionist and personal trainer.  As I watched my body and my voice grow stronger, I was amazed by the benefits of taking care of myself, not to mention all of that kale, was starting to make my voice stronger. Who knew?!

As a singer, I had noticed the connection between my overall health and the quality of my voice. Leading up to a big show, I would often train and eat in a specific way to help make my voice as strong as possible. I quickly realized that the quality of my voice was my body’s overall indicator of my health. The stronger my voice, the healthier my body felt. This epiphany was a turning point for me.

Those California singing years were where my love of all things fitness began. Years later, I decided to take a break from the West Coast music scene and focus instead on spending more time pursuing my passion for nutrition and fitness.  From crafting songs to crafting green smoothies, life has not been dull!

Today, I am a Nutritious Life™ Certified Nutrition Coach as well as a Certified Personal Trainer and Women’s Fitness Specialist through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. Most importantly, I’m a proud wife & momma; kid-taxi driver, doggie-snuggler, home cook, laundry ninja, and bedtime story-teller.

I still sing and tour from time to time, but my full-time “gig” is helping other busy women find their own voices and live their healthiest lives, from A to Z. I’m so glad you are part of this community. Reach out to me anytime—whether you’re ready to attack inflammation head on, or simply form some new and better health habits, I’m here for you!

In Good Health,

Lori Z.
