Sammi Hoppenrath

Hi! My name is Sammi and I'm the founder of Phoenix Phoria, a holistic health practice geared towards those struggling with their autoimmune symptoms or chronic inflammation. I found the AIP protocol after receiving my own diagnosis of Hashimotos. Through AIP, I have decreased my joint and muscle pain, lowered the frequency of my headaches, improved my mood, and increased my energy. I have also developed a much better relationship with food! I was then faced with another diagnosis of a small brain aneurysm. Though it's small, the thought of it pushed me to take a chance and answer a calling I had felt since my Hashimotos diagnosis -- to help others on a similar path as me. I was frustrated with the recommendations I was receiving with both diagnosis, but found that a holistic approach has made all the difference! I also had many clients at the time in my personal training career asking for autoimmune advice. I realized that there was a gap in care that I wanted to help fill. In my N.E.W. Beginnings program, I guide clients through a clear, supportive four-phase process designed to reduce symptoms and improve daily quality of life. We start by understanding your unique symptom patterns, triggers, and routines so we know where to focus first. Next, we build strong foundations -- sleep, stress support, simple nutrition, and daily habits that help calm inflammation and regulate your system. From there, we personalize your plan with nutrition, movement, mindset, and lifestyle strategies that fit your goals and energy. And finally, we integrate everything into a long-term, sustainable rhythm so you feel confident maintaining progress and navigating your health with ease. Outside of work, I keep myself busy with my family -- my husband, our 3 year old daughter, and our 5 year old great dane. And when I find time for myself, I fill it with nature, book reading, and listening to music or podcasts. I love working with all clients struggling with their autoimmune disease, but I can especially relate to busy moms, busy professionals, and those who have been struggling for YEARS with their symptoms. I look forward to connecting and discussing how I can help you!
