“Today, my life has transformed beyond recognition. I am not just a better mom but also a stronger wife, friend and Coach.”
Growing up in a Hispanic home, food wasn't just a meal; it was a celebration of love and culture. I also developed a strong “I can handle it alone” mentality that I carried into adulthood. Over time, I began gradually gaining weight until one day I suddenly realized I was overweight and in pain, feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and exhausted.
Life took a turn when I lost my mother – a profound and unexpected loss that prompted me to reevaluate my relationship with my health. I was confined to parenting from the couch and wasn’t the mom I knew I could be.

Jouleen’s Story“It wasn't until I discovered OPTAVIA that I found both the key to achieving a healthy weight and the tools to transform my entire lifestyle.”

Despite working as a labor and delivery nurse in healthcare, I continued to neglect my own wellbeing. Even resorting to gastric sleeve surgery proved to be a short-lived solution, as it failed to instill the habits necessary for long-term change.
