I help women reach stubborn fitness goals, build strength, & create a fitness lifestyle they can sustain forever.

If you’re on year number who-knows-what (3? 8? 10?!) of trying to start a whole new fitness plan that kiiiinda works but then…doesn’t….you’re probably frustrated. Defeated. Starting to believe only other people are capable of reaching their goals, except you. It’s not in the cards for you. You might blame it on genetics, circumstance, history, kids, something-else and try to convince yourself to give up and stop caring BUT YET — something deep down inside you is still itching to see if something possibly might be out there. Something to get you to over the hump. Something to give you a taste of strength, more confidence, freedom, longevity, less pain, fitting-into-those-pants-you-refuse-to-donate-JUSTINCASE.

Lucky for you (and all of us), exercise is a science. Science is predictable and replicable.

With the correct blend of customized programming, support, accountability, AND enjoyment (I swear it does NOT need to be sacrificial torture) —I know, for a fact, we can hit your goals and get you results you almost thought weren’t possible. I can even make it…dare I say…enjoyable :)

How do I know this? I’m nearly a decade into my training career and I’ve helped HUNDREDS of women not only reach but often exceed their goals - both with their bodies and their habits. I use my expertise on myself too. Through big life changes, pregnancy, postpartum, abdominal surgery, rapid weight gain, injuries & pain and now being a very busy mom, I’m still crushing my goals. I’m still strong as hell. It’s possible for all of us — even me, even YOU.

But real quick — HOW did I land in the fitness industry?

I was an active kid and adolescent. When I went to college and subsequently got booted into adulthood movement was no longer embedded into my life the way it had been growing up. I didn’t expect it to be so hard to enter the work force, find time to socialize, achieve all the other life milestones I wanted, AND prioritize exercise.

After a couple years of battling with mental health issues, finding it impossible to get into exercise, and moving to a different state to see if THAT would solve my problems, I finallyyyyyy hired my first personal trainer. This is a much longer story (episode one of my podcast goes into it!) but, essentially, having a trainer changed my life. I learned enough to become empowered and independent with exercise. I built confidence and self-efficacy. My understanding of discipline and consistency shifted into something more sustainable and enticing. Because all that, my mental health started to improve a little too.

I decided I HAD to be able to help others experience this same shift.

If I could get out of my suffering and self-limitations, I needed others to know they could too.

ENTER: becoming a certified personal trainer.

I worked a few years in-person training ALL types of people >>

Kids, seniors, olympic-level athletes, executives, moms, dads, you name it. My schedule was packed. 35-40 sessions a week making $18/session (most gym owners take a LOT of the session money from trainers). It wasn’t sustainable. I loved my clients SO much but knew I couldn’t commit to that pace long term, especially if I wanted to be as emotionally invested in each person as I was (a non-negotiable. I will never ditch the humanity in people just for work).

I dabbled with online training while maintaining many of my in-person sessions.

It became clear to me that online was my calling: convenient for clients, time-freedom for me, helping MORE people, can include more education and structure beyond a 60-minute session, etc.

I launched my pilot program and had GREAT success (BLESS).

The rest is history.

I’ve now trained HUNDREDS of women, become a practitioner of neuro linguistics (twice), an orthopedic exercise specialist, and a Tony Robbins certified executive coach.

I used to have suuuuuch a hard time talking up my services and I know now it was because I didn’t have the experience or wisdom to know what I know.

I can now say, without feeling weird or doubtful, I have my finger on the pulse of fitness and have no doubt I can help anyone who’s ready and open to it.

It’s a chemical and physical science, yes, and it’s a behavioral science.

If the behavior isnt sustainable, the results wont be either.

This is why I don’t offer any one-size-fits-all programs or courses. Everything I do involves knowing the whole person on the other side so I can serve from the highest level.

If you truly want to create a fitness lifestyle or a movement practice you can do forever, it must come with confidence, support, resources, flexibility. It cannot be limiting, overwhelming, mean. Having a mentor on the other side with nearly a decade of experience and epic success stories from clients helps too ;P

OUTSIDE OF FITNESS…

I’m a mom to a sweet little human girl named Skye and a k9 girl named Lucy.

A literal tree hugger and lover of all bugs and critters.

I read two genres of books: psychology or fantasy.

I will always swim and play in water even if no one else will.

I find public speaking, coaching group fitness classes, and showing up on social media enjoyable annnnnnnd I require significant chunks of time alone in order to do all that. I love being alone.

Bedtime before 9pm is way too early.

I learn the most from my husband, who is naturally the most put together human I’ve ever met. He has no idea he’s mentoring me just by existing, but he is.

I quit biting my nails because I HAD to prove to myself I could make a snap decision and change anything I wanted to immediately if I really wanted to. (I did, I can).

I don’t practice any religion, but I am very spiritual.

I’ve got three siblings: one brother and two sisters.

I started a podcast and genuinely LOVE creating on that platform.

I never want to NOT be working. I find so much value in what I do and know it will keep me fulfilled if I can do it until my last breath (not OVER working, though. Never!).
