I specialize in Nutrition, Weight loss, and Weight Management. I have a passion for helping people to reverse and prevent diseases through proper nutrition and education - to help people thrive, not just survive. Through a proven, comprehensive program we can transform people's health and lives and give them hope for the future by offering healthy bodies, healthy minds and healthy finances. I am dedicated to connecting people to others and to things they need to improve quality of life. I am devoted to building lasting relationships that are rewarding for both myself and my clients. I desire to serve, guide and nurture my clients on a long term lifestyle change and health transformation so that they might be an example for others and lead others to also transform and create healthy habits. I chose to work in this field after I saw firsthand how my husband's health and life improved when he went on our program. His doctor told him that if he didn't lose 30-40 pounds, he would have to go on cholesterol medication. This was an ah-ha moment for Robert and we began looking for a program to help. I turned to my trusted friend and personal trainer, Nicole DeWard and she introduced us to Take Shape for Life. He lost the weight quickly and easily and did not have to take any medication. This program has been a true gift to us and I decided that this gift needed to be shared with others. So, at the age of 53, I began a new career and have the honor and pleasure of paying it forward. My own health has been optimized by the knowledge I have gained from being certified and learning from my amazing team of health coach mentors. I was introduced to a fantastic family of likeminded individuals, working as a team for Take Shape For Life/Optavia, on a mission to Get America Healthy! It is truly rewarding, gratifying and fun to be a health coach. It proves that it is never too late to get optimally healthy and obtain true purpose and overall well being.
