Nutrition Coach
Petra Bergner is a Certified Nutrition and Executive Coach who brings over 30 years of experience helping people create meaningful, lasting change. With a Master of Arts in Leadership and a long career supporting high-performing professionals, Petra understands the unique pressures faced by people who “have it all together” in every area except their health.
After decades of putting others first, Petra found herself on her own weight-loss and healing journey. As a woman in her 50’s navigating prescription injectable medication for long-term weight management (GIP and GLP-1 hormones for weight loss), peri/menopause, and a 50-pound weight loss, she knows firsthand how complex, emotional, and transformative this work can be.
At Simply for Life, Petra creates a compassionate, judgment-free space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered. She specializes in helping:
➡️Individuals using weight-loss medications or considering using weight-loss medications who want sustainable habits and confidence.
➡️Women who are successful in life but feel like they’re “failing” at weight loss
➡️Women in peri- or post-menopause who want to feel strong, healthy, and at home in their bodies.
Petra’s coaching blends evidence-based strategies with deep emotional support, meeting each person exactly where they are. Her approach is rooted in kindness, clarity, and the belief that everyone deserves to feel good in their body… and never to feel ashamed for wanting change.
You don’t need discipline, willpower, or perfection to change your life.
You just need a place where you feel held while you do it.
That’s the space she creates.

My name is Leith, and I’m a Nutrition Coach and Naturopath here at Simply For Life Fredericton North. I spend most of my week consulting with clients, helping people build healthier habits, find a little more balance, and create changes that actually fit into their lives. My own journey with health and nutrition started in 2023, and since then, I’ve lost 140 pounds. But somewhere along the way, it became about a lot more than weight loss.

My own journey with health and nutrition started in 2023, and since then, I’ve lost 140 pounds. But somewhere along the way, it became about a lot more than weight loss. I discovered a love of running, learned just how much better I could feel, and completely changed my relationship with food, movement, and my health. Now, I get to take everything I’ve learned through my own experience, along with my education as a coach, and use it to help other people through their own journeys.
My approach to nutrition is pretty simple: I don’t believe you need to be perfect to make progress. Food should still be enjoyable, your plan should actually work with your life, and health is about more than what’s on your plate. Nutrition, movement, hydration, sleep, stress, and everything happening in the rest of your life all play a part. My job is to meet you where you are, help you figure out what works for you, and support you in building something you can actually sustain.
Becoming a Naturopath felt like a natural extension of that philosophy. I’ve always believed in looking at wellness as a balance between mind, body, and spirit rather than treating any one piece in isolation. It fits naturally into the way I consult and allows me to take a broader look at what someone may need to feel their best.
I genuinely love what I get to do now. Getting to know my clients, watching them discover what they’re capable of, and being there for both the victories and the harder weeks has become one of my favourite parts of the job. I’m always looking forward to meeting someone new, hearing their story, and figuring out how I can support them in whatever their journey looks like.
Outside of work, you’ll usually find me running, working on new music, playing Dungeons & Dragons, or spending time with my family. Life is busy, occasionally chaotic, and meant to be enjoyed, and I try to bring a little bit of that philosophy into the way I coach, too.

I have been part of the Northside team as a Front Desk Associate since the market first opened, and I’m so happy to continue being part of this wonderful community.
One of my favourite parts of my role is meeting our clients, getting to know them, and hearing their stories. I love being able to offer simple, practical tips about balancing meals, making nourishing choices, and fueling the body with the energy it needs to feel its best. For me, health is not about perfection—it’s about finding sustainable habits that fit into everyday life.
I’m a retired teacher, and I have always had a strong interest in health and nutrition. Although I have retired from full-time teaching, I continue to be involved with curriculum planning and French as a second language through the Université de Moncton. Education has always been an important part of who I am, and I love that I can continue learning and sharing what I know in different ways.
I’m proud to be part of the Simply For Life team because there is always something new to learn when it comes to nutrition, health, and wellness. Most importantly, I love being surrounded by people who genuinely care about helping others live healthier, happier lives.
