Meet Sherri Danzig – Wellness Mentor & Founder of Choosing Vibrancy

Over 25 years ago, Sherri did a bold career pivot—from selling food to feeding the soul. Leaving behind her role as a sales rep in the food industry, she followed a deeper calling to become a Neuromuscular Therapist, launching her lifelong mission to help others feel vibrant from the inside out.

She founded Choosing Vibrancy to inspire and teach natural, simple self-care solutions that anyone—anywhere—can weave into daily life. Through her workshops, one-on-one consultations, and global wellness community, Sherri has helped thousands of people reclaim their vitality and well-being.

If you believe that “Zen” moments are reserved for vacations or that your morning mood depends on everyone else in the house—get ready to flip that script.

Driven by a deep fascination with the body-mind connection, Sherri has spent decades immersed in the science and art of personal empowerment. Her work invites you to reconnect with your own inner compass and discover just how good you’re meant to feel.
