It is my passion and pleasure to help you find the answer to the question "how do I fix it". I take an integrative approach to your whole-body well-being. As a Certified Nutritional Aesthetics Practitioner (CNAP), I specialize in how the skin shows the untold story of what is going on within and also how the internal realm impacts our external health, appearance and confidence.
Skincare is one of the ways to nurture, nourish & protect our largest organ, the skin. While the biggest change comes from an inside-out approach, we would be remiss to think that taking care of our bodies topically is not important.

Working with Sharmil was such an incredible experience. I have worked with other practitioners regarding my nutrition before (nutritionists, doctors, naturopaths), but this was so different.
In the past, I was essentially given a LONG list of what not to eat with very little guidance about what TO do. In contrast to this, Sharmil met me where I was at each moment. Other than the list of toxic foods (for example, fish that are high in mercury which should very well be on everyone’s NO list), she really didn’t give me a whole lot of restrictions. Instead, she gave recommendations on how to increase my nutrients by choosing better foods (like meat from pasture-raised chickens) or by using different preparation methods (such as soaking AND pressure cooking beans), as often as I could. There was never any shaming about what I was or wasn’t eating, which actually made me feel more inclined to take her advice.
Throughout our time together (4 months in total), she also provided me with tools that helped me tap into much deeper parts of myself. This was very unexpected, but completely necessary. Using her methods, I realized (and released!) a lot of the things that were holding me back. I came to have a better understanding of “why” I was doing things, which helped me make choices that better aligned with my true desires. To have that kind of impact in just a few months’ time was remarkable to me.
Sharmil’s wonderful heart combined with her intuition, knowledge, and drive to always help others as much as she can made this one of the best “therapies” I have ever received. One of the phrases Sharmil said over and over was “Progress, not Perfection,” and she really does mean this. She helped me celebrate each win, no matter how small I thought it was - if I even noticed it at all. How wonderful to have someone like that on your side.

I have been using Forest and Fern's products for years now and am constantly amazed at the quality of the products.
This year I had a great opportunity to experience health coaching with Sharmil that was aimed at improving the health of my skin.
Sharmil has a wealth of knowledge! Her inquisitive and empathic nature allowed me to go well beyond focusing on skin concerns towards caring deeply for my health in a holistic way. The shifts I have made as a result now prepare my skin for receiving maximum benefit from the products. I highly recommend!

Highly highly recommend!!!
I started using Forest & Fern skincare products a few years ago and fell in LOVE with them. I love the way my skin feels after cleansing and moisturizing! And I can trust that they're made with high quality ingredients (without any suspicious chemicals/toxins!) which gives me peace of mind.
I recently worked with Sharmil for coaching, which exceeded my expectations. She really took the time to listen and understand my needs, and our sessions went far deeper than just topical skin care.
Would highly recommend to anyone looking to help their skin feel amazing!

I have personally had coaching with Sharmil Elliott and I have also had the privilege of seeing Sharmil coach others. I have also seen, on too many occasions to count, Sharmil present and lead. I can attest to her gifted & highly professional coaching, presenting and leading abilities.
Sharmil Elliott is not just a phenomenal human being, she is an amazing coach and mentor. She is literally one of the best coaches I know, and I know a lot of coaches. I really appreciate that Sharmil has an uncanny ability to see what is holding you back, draw it out into the open and then she lovingly and firmly hands your stuff right back to you - so YOU can grow, expand and get what you want. In my book, this is what sets her apart.
Sharmil has the range of coaching to handle you with tender loving care or firmly and powerfully nail you on ‘your stuff’ and let you sit in it. She uses both, as needed and on a per client basis, totally from love and a strong desire to help the client ‘get free’.
I highly recommend, if you get the opportunity, to get coaching from Sharmil or attend any workshop she is leading.

I’ve never been happy with my skin. It felt like I was always in a battle with it, trying to keep it clean, but ending up with acne and far too much oil. Sharmil was the one who recommended a different skin care routine. Once I started using her products and taking her advice? It made a HUGE difference. I didn't realize my skin could look this healthy and happy. Plus, they all smell AMAZING and I so love how responsibly she sources her ingredients. Safe to say I'm not planning on using anything else anymore.

I absolutely LoVe the face cream! It truly is the best “product” I’ve ever used and am so thankful u offer it. So talented you are! It arrived just fine in all of its packaging thank you for taking such great care.

I’ve been using your cleansing balm morning and night after which I use your toner. I use your Pricklye Pear product for under my eyes both a.m. and p.m. I've also been using your serum every a.m. and your Hydrating Repair and Protect Cream at night. I absolutely swear by the latter.
I have been a sun worshiper all my life... even in my teens using baby oil! I've also used inhalers/a pulmo-aide for over 17 years. The wrinkles in my face, especially around my mouth are permanently etched in my skin.
However, since I've used the [cleansing] balm and repair cream, I've seen a HUGE lessening in the depth of those wrinkles. Even my husband and daughter have commented on this. I've been using these products for only about 4 months.
I will definitely continue their use because of the results I've seen.

The first time I spoke with Sharmil on the phone I instantly recognized her strength, love and deep insight. I was drawn to receive coaching from her even though we lived in different states, and I am so glad I did.
I think it’s because she has been through such deep inner transformations herself that she is able to guide another person through the rough patches on their own path so expertly. Every session was a revelation for me and more than worth the price I paid her. I was ready for a change but I got much more than that through our work together, she gave me back to myself.
As a result of working with Sharmil I feel increased confidence, self love, clarity and approval for my desires and more appreciation and depth in my relationships…not to mention an increased ability to receive and give in OM and SEX.
My gratitude for these gifts goes on and on. Thank you, Sharmil for all you do.
I am so grateful to you for the energy and time you spent helping me on my path. I really would not be where I am today without some of those sessions. With all my love... I genuinely mean every word. Big hug.

The Nutritional Aesthetics Approach To a nourished life
Nutrition
Nutrition is the foundation for health. When our bodies do not recieve the nutritional building blocks it needs to heal, repair and be healthy then it will show in our skin in many different ways. Want to learn about how this works and what nutrients you should be getting, & how to get them, for your best skin?
The idea “we are what we eat” is an interesting thought but what is more accurate and important is “we are what we ABSORB”. Those wonderful nutrients that we feed our bodies can’t do all the good that they need to if our digestive system is out of whack. There can be a whole host of underlying issues from imbalanced micobiome to genetic predispositions (and so much more) that impact how our bodies are able to utilize what we put into them.

It is becoming more widely known that our skin is a reflection of what is going on inside our bodies. But do you know what to do about it? What changes to make for that radiant, glowing complexion? Surprisingly, it’s more nuanced than you might think and requires a look at the whole body & mind in concert.
