DANI RANCOURT, MS, RD, CSSD
I'm Dani, founder & CEO of Pivot Nutrition Coaching. I'm also a Registered Dietitian and Certified Sports Dietitian based out of Grand Forks, North Dakota.
Being a former Division I hockey player and mom of two littles, I understand that it can be confusing and overwhelming trying to find a balance between fueling your body, feeding a family and enjoying your favorite foods. This is why I aim to simplify nutrition, making it easy, fun and sustainable!
My goal is that Pivot is the LAST program you ever do. Let's ditch food guilt and get you feeling the best you've felt in YEARS!

Founder & CEO
Samantha ferguson, MS, rd
Registered Dietitian and nutrition coach specializing in the intersection of nutrition, neuroscience, and behavior change. Healthy living should make your life better, not smaller.
I help clients move beyond restrictive diets and quick fixes by understanding the science behind their habits and learning how to create lasting change. My approach combines evidence-based nutrition with behavioral strategies to support weight management, body composition, blood sugar regulation, PMOS, and long-term brain health.
I believe healthy eating should be sustainable, flexible, and enjoyable. That means learning how to fuel your body while still making room for the foods, experiences, and traditions that make life fun.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me tracking down seasonal lattes, exploring new places, and taking my pups on their daily adventures.

Registered Dietitian
My passion is helping other women overcome burnout, hormonal imbalances and restoring metabolic health. I use functional lab testing, personalized nutrition and trauma-informed coaching to give women the tools to live a truly nourished and vibrant life.
As an autoimmune warrior and mother in my early 40’s, I have personally experienced all the fatigue, brain fog and gut/hormone imbalances that come with it. I have learned to combine my extensive clinical background with integrative modalities to achieve wellness.
When I’m not helping women thrive and live their best lives, you can find me spending time with my husband and two daughters, getting in a morning strength workout, walking on the beach, or tucked away somewhere writing. I love good food, creative projects, and finding beauty, connection, and meaning in the everyday moments that make life feel full.

Registered DietitianHANNAH DAVIS, RD
Registered Dietitian and Certified Midlife Specialist, based out of Queens, New York.
I have over 26 years of experience in a variety of clinical settings. As a woman in her late-50s, I have personally experienced mid-life changes and menopause madness. I have learned to embrace and navigate the hormonal changes and I want to help support and empower women to take charge, regain your energy and live your best life.
When I am not coaching clients, I enjoy spending time with friends, exploring new places with my husband, playing with my dogs, working out and baking!

SARAH KOEHLER, MS, RD
Registered Dietitian and Online Dietitian Coach from Colorado Springs, Colorado.
I've had a passion for nutrition since high school when I experienced firsthand how food can impact one's athletic performance, which led me to run cross country and track in college.
Most of my clients are busy women that struggle losing weight due to a poor relationship with food. There's nothing better then helping them shift their mindset so they can look and feel their best!
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, working out, and baking!
