You deserve to feel heard and supported.
If your digestion feels unpredictable or you’re unsure what your body needs, I’m here to listen. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and find the support that fits where you are right now.
Here's how we can work together:
PERSONALIZED NUTRITION + SUPPLEMENT PROTOCOL
✓ You’re bloated, constipated, dealing with diarrhea, reflux or unpredictable digestion
✓ Foods you used to tolerate suddenly don’t feel good anymore
✓ You’re exhausted, foggy, anxious, sleeping poorly or just don’t feel like yourself
✓ Perimenopause, thyroid issues or hormone changes seem to have made everything worse
✓ You’ve tried probiotics, supplements, elimination diets or “eating healthier” without lasting relief
✓ Your labs keep coming back “normal,” but you know something is off
✓ You’re ready to understand the root causes instead of continuing to chase symptoms
This program is for you if:
Short, practical lessons help you understand the “why” behind what we’re doing, gut health, hormones, blood sugar, stress, sleep, thyroid support and more.
STEP-BY-STEP LEARNING MODULES
We start by looking deeper at your microbiome, digestion, inflammation, immune activity, beneficial bacteria, potential overgrowths and other patterns that may be contributing to your symptoms.
GI-MAP STOOL TEST + PERSONALIZED INTERPRETATION

This is what hundreds have been telling me in texts, calls, emails, and DMs.
If you can relate, you’re not alone.
"I'm so tired of feeling bloated and uncomfortable after every meal. Why do I look like I’m 9 months pregnant after every meal?."
"I've tried every diet out there, but I still can't lose this stubborn weight. I used to be able to make a few quick changes to my eating and drop pounds without even thinking about it. Not anymore. Is this what happens as you age?”
"Between the brain fog and constant fatigue, I feel like I'm barely showing up for my family. I just want to feel like myself again."
"I'm sick of planning my life around running to the bathroom. Some mornings I can’t leave for work on-time. I’m so worried I’ll have to use the bathroom on my commute. I never know if it's going to be constipation or diarrhea – it's embarrassing and exhausting."
"My mood swings are out of control. One minute I'm fine, the next, I'm snapping at my kids or husband. I hate feeling like this unpredictable person."
Does this sound familiar?
From your mood to your energy levels, we see how your gut health influences every aspect of your life. Understanding this connection allows us to create personalized, effective solutions that go beyond just treating symptoms.
I believe in the gut-brain connection.
Going beyond surface-level symptoms and quick fixes, we investigate the underlying factors affecting your health. This thorough approach allows us to create lasting change and true healing.
I dig deep to uncover root causes.
In a world full of conflicting health information and fad diets, we strive to provide clear, science-backed knowledge that empowers you to make informed decisions about your health. Our goal is to make you the expert on your own body.
I prioritize education and empowerment.
Recognizing that no two bodies are exactly alike, we tailor our approach to your unique needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Your wellness journey is as individual as you are.
I embrace bio-individuality.
Instead of rigid diets and calorie counting, we emphasize adding whole, nutrient-dense foods that support your gut health and overall well-being. Our approach is about abundance, not deprivation.
I focus on nourishment, not restriction.

"Ms. Rigoli is literally a breath of fresh air for me. I was at a place where I was exhausted trying to find help to organize and streamline my medications, diet and exercise routine to jump start weight loss on my health journey. I was trying all different things, and not feeling any better or losing any weight. Samantha listened to me, REALLY listened...to my goals and dreams, and helped me to figure out how to overcome hurdles and obstacles in the way of reaching them. She recommended a new eating plan and supplements to help address the problems I was having, and helped set realistic goals I could actually reach. FINALLY....I am on my way to better health and a better me."

Questions & Answers
I get it, this can be a big decision. Let me help ease your mind.
How is this program different from other diets or nutrition plans I've tried?
The Gut-First Method combines 16 weeks of personalized care with practical education and ongoing support. You work directly with Samantha Rigoli, Registered Dietitian and Functional Nutritionist, rather than following a generic meal plan.
We begin with a 75-minute consultation and an included GI-MAP stool test. We consider the findings alongside your symptoms, health history and previous testing; no single test explains every digestive problem.
Through Reveal, Repair and Reclaim, we develop your nutrition and lifestyle plan, review your response and adjust your next steps. Monthly private consultations, biweekly group calls and messaging help you put those recommendations into practice. The goal is greater digestive comfort, confidence and food variety, with changes tailored to your needs.
I've struggled with my health for years. How can I be sure this will work for me?
Your symptoms deserve attention, even if previous tests were normal. We review your history, consider appropriate nutrition strategies and discuss medical follow-up when needed. Results and timing vary; no outcome is guaranteed. The free Gut-First Symptom Assessment helps us discuss your concerns and whether the program fits your needs before you enroll.
Is this program only for women? What if I'm a man experiencing similar issues?
The Gut-First Method is designed for women navigating perimenopause-related digestive changes, including bloating, constipation and unpredictable digestion. Virtual consultations are available by appointment across the U.S. If your needs fall outside this program, contact Samantha to discuss whether another service or referral would be more appropriate.
What if I have food allergies or dietary restrictions? Can this program still work for me?
Absolutely! Remember, this is all about personalization. We'll work within your dietary needs and restrictions to create a plan that's both nourishing and safe for you. In fact, addressing food sensitivities is often a key part of healing gut issues and balancing hormones.
I'm really busy. How much time will I need to dedicate to this program?
You begin with a 75-minute consultation, followed by monthly private sessions and group coaching every other week. Recommendations fit your routines. Between sessions, send nonurgent questions by private message; expect a response within two business days, Monday-Friday, excluding holidays. Messaging does not replace medical or emergency care.
Is the investment worth it? What kind of results can I expect?
The program combines personalized guidance, testing and ongoing support to help you understand your digestion and build sustainable habits. Results and timing vary. During your free assessment, we discuss your goals, explain the program in detail and answer your questions so you can decide whether it is right for you.
What happens after the 16-week program ends?
At the end of 16 weeks, we review your progress and create a personalized plan for maintaining helpful routines, food variety and confidence. You leave with clear next steps, including recommendations for continued support or medical follow-up when appropriate. If ongoing individualized care would help, we discuss the available options together.
