health coaching

Rachel changed my life for the better.

Rachel took several weeks on the upfront to learn about my health history and goals. After taking a nutritional assessment and completing a “food and mood” journal, we decided to tackle digestive health, gut health and blood sugar regulation. We started off slow, building simple habits that I could work into my schedule, such as warm lemon water first thing in the morning to jump start digestion.  

Rachel built a robust, personalized health plan including one-sheet nutritional guides, recommended food lists and supplements. She researched grocery stores in my area and wrote shopping lists that considered my budget. She even helped me find healthy options for all of my favorite unhealthy foods which made craving obstacles easier to overcome. Similarly, Rachel researched supplements and vitamins to substitute the limiting versions I was taking and made sure each recommendation aligned with my holistic health goals and values.  

After just six weeks of working with Rachel, I was able to stop taking acid reflux medication that I’d been taking every day for seven years! This was my number one objective in working with her. We tackled my sugar cravings and low energy by regulating my blood sugar.

Rachel is an empathetic partner who meets me where I’m at. We had formal bi-weekly check-ins but she was also available morning, noon and night to answer questions and address reactions. She checked in every few days to gauge how I was feeling or to share some bit of helpful research she recently learned. 

I am grateful for Rachel’s expertise in the functional nutrition space. She helped me achieve health goals I never thought possible!

Working with Rachel was an absolute pleasure! I came into the program wanting to get to the bottom of my stomach issues and I came out of the program having gained so much more! Rachel worked with me to add in things to my lifestyle that really were focused on getting to the root of my stomach issues as well as teaching me how to really listen to my body and understand what it’s trying to tell me. For example – my energy was super low overall as well as brain fog and sluggishness – which I learned was all connected to my gut issues. In keeping food journals, reducing my sugar intake (which I had not been able to do for years) and meeting bi-weekly with Rachel we were able to slowly heal my gut and at the same time my other issues that I didn’t even realize were connected to my gut issues went away! I overall feel a new sense of energy and haven’t felt those intense stomach cramps and bloating that were taking over my life before.

My goal was to go even one day without stomach pain and after so many years of this – I have been able to improve this significantly and have a new view on what it really means to listen to my body and give it the fuel/support it needs to function normally. I’ve gained a new understanding of how to eat in a balanced way that both fuels my body and supports my gut health. I feel empowered to make decisions related to my health and give my gut/body the extra support it needs all due to the time I’ve spent working with Rachel. I can’t say enough good things about this program and it has changed my life for the better and these learnings will continue to support me far into the future! Thanks so much Rachel for supporting me on my gut health journey – so happy we were able to get to the root cause of my gut issues overall!

I highly recommend Rachel as a top-notch holistic nutritionist. She is knowledgeable, thorough, and has a genuine interest in understanding issues and concerns related to achieving a healthy lifestyle. She is patient; answering all questions in layman’s terms, and forthcoming with not only recipes, but examples of specific food products that will work well (and why) with what you are trying to accomplish. The knowledge I gained from Rachel will be something I can transition into lifelong habits. As a result of working with Rachel, debilitating symptoms have disappeared and quality of life has improved tremendously! Rachel is A++ and receives high marks on all aspects of being a phenomenal Nutritional Therapy Practitioner.

Rachel is AMAZING!! She has truly helped me break my lifelong struggle with dieting that I have been stuck in for many years. She is extremely knowledgeable, respectful, and approachable with the complexities of one’s relationship with food. She made me feel super comfortable to discuss my hardships with food, and was there every step of the way to celebrate the small and big victories. Her approach to coaching is with the highest degree of knowledge coupled with compassion to meet people where they are in life.

At our meetings, I never felt judged or pressured to make drastic decisions which fostered a relationship of transparency to really break down the walls of my lifelong struggles with my body and food. Her intuitive, mindful and whole-body approach has truly changed the way I approach food today. Thoughts of food no longer cross my mind constantly and with simple but impactful changes to my dietary choices, I immediately felt more energized and uplifted. She has given me the power to find balance in my health and truly eat what I want without having to compensate for it through exercise or justification. It has really been life-changing. Rachel’s investment and strong confidence in me is unmatched by anyone else I have ever worked with. I HIGHLY recommend Rachel to everyone, no matter the stage of life or health.  We all need a Rachel in our corner!!!

Yoga & strength training

After taking a few years off from exercise and physical activity, Rachel was one of the first instructors I encountered as I explored embracing movement again in 2023. I remember being nervous to take a class and had all of the concerns that anyone would have in a new environment. Rachel helped me feel comfortable starting where I was, helping me to understand that starting somewhere is always better than not starting at all. 
 
Her teaching style of meshing strength-style workouts and verbiage alongside yoga helped me feel comfortable connecting with my body after being disconnected. It felt familiar, but also new, giving me a boost that helped me find my own motivation.
 
I would recommend Rachel as an instructor not only for her knowledge of physical movement, but also her intentional words and cues. She is wonderful for beginners but also offers tiers for those who are more experienced. 1 year in, Rachel still challenges me while connecting me to my body and my heart. A skill that not everyone encompasses, and is much appreciated in my practice.

Her classes are so energising, and I appreciate how she pays individual attention to everyone in the class. Thanks to her guidance, I was able to make a positive change in my life. I highly recommend her classes to anyone looking to enhance their yoga practice!
