Ryan Monahan (aka Monahan) is a songwriter and producer based in Boulder, CO, formerly based in Athens and Atlanta, GA. His songs have been featured on NBC, ABC, Fox, Lifetime, MTV, and Weinstein Films' Crossing Over. Monahan performs and records with dream-pop acts Easter Island (featured on the CW show, Dynasty), and spent nearly 10 years writing, recording, and touring with Cindy Wilson of The B-52s.

When Ryan is not recording or producing, he daylights as a functional health practitioner under the alias, The Mindful Nutrivore. His career started in 2012 shortly after being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s - an autoimmune thyroid condition that completely changed his life direction. Among Ryan’s credentials include being a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (Level III), being nationally board certified with the NBHWC, and also being a certified Autoimmune Protocol coach.

He also shares his clinical journey more in-depth in his article reviewing the FDN certification program, written for anyone considering walking a similar path into functional health.

Beyond his own clinical practice, Ryan is the founder of Functional Fast-Track since 2020, a mentorship program launched in 2020 to train and support other functional health practitioners on their path to clinical mastery.

Currently, Ryan works remotely with clients from all over the country - especially those that feel like they’ve “tried everything”, or those that have not been served by the conventional medical model. Through the process of working together, Ryan helps his clients to create personalized plans for reversing chronic disease, so that they can get back to a state of peak creative output!
