I'm an independent OPTAVIA Coach. Here is my story:
I became a health coach 8 years ago because I wanted to make a real difference in people’s lives. After more than 25 years in the same career, I was ready for something new that aligned with my passion for healthy living and maintaining a healthy weight. I loved learning about healthy habits and how small, nourishing meals could transform both my energy and my mindset. I personally lost 12 pounds, fit back into my favorite clothes, and have kept the weight off by adopting sustainable, healthy habits. Helping clients achieve similar transformations has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. When we work together, you’ll feel truly heard and seen, and you’ll have my full support every step of the way. This program isn’t just about weight loss it’s about opening the door to a healthier, more vibrant life. I can’t wait to help you create the health and confidence you deserve!
