The solution is my 13-week, one on one, private coaching program where I take you through a journey of self and health-discovery to help you reach AND maintain your big health goals. I am a Certified Nurse Practitioner and Certified Health Coach, and I offer you my medical expertise in diabetes management as well as meaningful coaching support to help you get healthier and feel more like yourself again so that you can do more of what you love with the people you care about.
Here's how it works:
Step One: Design the Dream
We’ll start with a full health assessment to see what areas need more attention and care. Right away, you'll have access to resources to help you lower your sugars. Then, we'll create a vision for your best, healthy self and uncover the factors that will keep you motivated to stick with your journey, even when it gets hard. Maybe you want to get better at preparing healthy, diabetic-friendly meals and making exercise a regular part of your routine so that you can be a role model for your children. Or, perhaps you want to lose weight without strict dieting so that you can keep the weight off for good. Awesome! We'll make a realistic plan so you can organize your days to easily incorporate new healthy habits. At the end of this stage, you’ll be ready to establish the healthy lifestyle you want so you can look and feel your best.
Step Two: Build the Tools to Thrive
In this stage, we will dig deeper into the essential nutrition habits needed to catapult you toward your health goals without dieting, starving yourself or cutting out entire food groups. You’ll learn the best way to eat for diabetes and which foods give you high energy all day long. No more riding the blood sugar roller-coaster and compensating for afternoon sugar crashes with trips to the coffee shop or the fridge for a pick me up. You will discover how to listen to your body, recognize real vs. emotional hunger, and know when you are satisfied without stuffing or denying yourself. We will also develop a fun and healthy exercise routine you can do consistently that honors your mind and your body. The result? A healthy lifestyle you can maintain and no more fad diets that don't last.
Step Three: Level-up Your Inner Game
Now we are ready to address the mental and emotional challenges that have stopped you from achieving your health goals in the past. Maybe there’s always something (anything?!?) more important you feel needs to get done instead of working out? It's ok! We’ll look at ways you’re sabotaging your success, how your thoughts may have served you in the past but now need to change, and how you can choose new approaches to support your goals. When late night ice cream comes calling or you want to skip your workout “just because” you will learn how to make decisions that keep you on track. As you begin to understand, recognize, and change the thoughts that have been driving your actions, we’ll also work on helping you manage stress so you can find your calm. You will be empowered to make new, healthier choices so you can do the things you love with the people you care about.
Step Four: Sustain Your New Normal
Finally, we will solidify how to turn these healthy habits into behaviors that last amid the challenges of daily life. Instead of missing meals or a walk after a bad day, we will lock-in the tools and tricks you have adopted to consistently eat right, enjoy movement, manage stress and maintain your new lifestyle. You will learn to deeply listen to your intuition, fully relax, recognize your emotions and follow your heart on what matters to you most. As you continue to learn about yourself and what works and doesn’t work for YOU, being healthy will simply become who you are and what you do, without feeling forced, stressed, or deprived. When you live this way, the lower A1C and more fit body naturally follow. Welcome to a new, healthier normal where you feel like yourself again, and have more energy for the people and things that you love.
