Philosophy

The Whole Person Approach

You’re not just a body. Your physical, mental, emotional, and even spiritual well-being are all connected. True health isn’t about chasing perfection—it’s about creating balance, integration, and habits that actually work for your life.

I believe you are the expert on your own life. My job? To guide, challenge, and support you in uncovering what truly matters to you. This is a no-judgment zone—just real conversations, real solutions, and a space where you can show up as you are.

Sustainability is everything. Change doesn’t happen overnight, and it shouldn’t feel like an uphill battle. We’ll focus on small, realistic adjustments that lead to big, lasting results. Along the way, we’ll uncover what’s been holding you back, tap into what drives you, and build habits that actually stick. And yes—we’re celebrating every damn win.

Most importantly, trust is the foundation of everything I do. I’m honest, direct, and 100% in your corner. My no-nonsense approach doesn’t mean I’m tough on you—it means I’m committed to helping you get where you want to be. I get it, life is complicated. But you don’t have to navigate it alone.

FAQs

What kinds of things can you help me with?

I help women 35+ fine-tune their lifestyle and habits to feel stronger, healthier, and more in control of their bodies. My coaching focuses on:

Navigating Perimenopause & Beyond – Understanding what’s happening to your body and how to adapt with confidence.

Managing Weight & Metabolism Changes – Shifting nutrition and movement strategies to work with your body, not against it.

Breaking Free from Sugar & Cravings – Learning how to balance blood sugar, reduce cravings, and feel more energized.

Building Sustainable Habits – Creating realistic, lasting changes without perfectionism or guilt.

Stress & Energy Management – Strategies for better sleep, balanced hormones, and getting through the day with more energy.

Strength & Movement – Helping you find ways to move that feel good, build strength, and support longevity.

I take a no-BS, non-judgmental approach—you’re not here to be perfect, you’re here to make progress. We work together to create a plan that fits your life and goals.

What do I bring to my appointment?

For a Deep Dive Session, I’ll send you a short intake form beforehand so we can hit the ground running. For ongoing coaching, just bring yourself, an open mind, and any notes or questions you want to discuss. A notebook or digital notes can be helpful, but not required. My goal is to make this as easy and effective for you as possible.

I already have quite a bit of knowledge about health and wellness. Why would I need you?

Because knowledge isn’t the problem—execution is. You probably already know the “shoulds,” but knowing and doing (consistently, in a way that actually works for your life) are two different things.

Here’s how I help:

Cut through the noise – No more second-guessing what actually works for you at this stage of life.

Turn knowledge into action – We take what you know and make it workable, sustainable, and effective.

Troubleshoot & tweak – If you’re stuck, I help pinpoint exactly what’s missing and adjust accordingly.

Accountability & momentum – Even the most knowledgeable people need a coach in their corner to keep them moving forward.

You don’t need more random advice—you need a strategy that fits you and actually gets results. That’s where I come in.

How many sessions will I need?

That depends on your goals, where you’re starting from, and how much support you want along the way. Some women just need a one-time Power Hour Session to troubleshoot and fine-tune their approach, while others prefer ongoing coaching to build consistency, stay accountable, and adjust as life happens.

This isn’t about a quick fix—it’s about creating sustainable changes that actually stick. We’ll figure out what works best for you so you get the results you want without wasting time or energy on things that don’t serve you.

Are results guaranteed?

I wish I could say yes, but the truth is—your results depend on you. Living a healthier life isn’t about quick fixes; it takes commitment, consistency, and effort. My job is to give you the tools, structure, and guidance to set you up for success, but ultimately, the progress you make is a reflection of the effort you put in. If you’re ready to show up for yourself, I’m here to help you make it happen.

Will you suggest I use supplements?

That’s entirely up to you. Many issues can be addressed through small but powerful habit changes in diet, movement, and daily routines. In an ideal world, that would be enough—but life isn’t always that simple. Sometimes, a little extra support helps. If you choose to go that route, you can buy from anywhere, or I can provide high-quality options through FullScript, a platform with strict standards I trust for myself.

What are your rates?

My coaching options are designed to fit different needs, from one-time Deep Dive Sessions to ongoing support. You can check out my current rates and offerings here.
