Why work with a health coach?
Life transitions can shake your confidence and leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. Whether you're navigating menopause, burnout, or a season of uncertainty, the habits that once worked may no longer fit — and trying to figure out what will work can feel exhausting.
You don't have to do it alone.
A health coach helps you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be, offering personalized, compassionate support as you rebuild trust in your body, create sustainable habits, and regain clarity during times of change.

My mission is to help you rise from overwhelm and uncertainty and build a strong foundation for lifelong well-being.

What Is Health and Wellness Coaching?
Health coaching is a collaborative, supportive partnership designed to help you create lasting, sustainable change — without overwhelm or perfectionism.
The Phoenix Feather Approach provides an experience that is:
- Personalized: Your goals, your pace, your plan.
- Holistic: Focused on all areas of well-being — body, mind, and lifestyle.
- Empowering: Helping you take charge of your health.
- Supportive: You don't have to figure everything out alone.
- Sustainable: Small, meaningful steps that fit your life — not the other way around.
How Coaching Helps
Health coaching turns intentions into action. It bridges the gap between medical advice, personal goals, and daily life — especially during times of transition when clarity and momentum feel hard to find.
Using the Five Pillars of Wellness, we work together to create a foundation that supports your well-being from multiple angles.
The Five Pillars of Wellness
- Nutrition: Nourish your body in ways that support energy and mood.
- Sleep: Build restorative rest routines that help you function at your best.
- Movement: Explore movement you enjoy and can maintain with confidence.
- Stress Management: Reduce overwhelm with tools that calm your nervous system.
- Connection: Strengthen relationships that support your emotional health.
What you will get
- Behavioral Support: Practical tools and structure tailored to your goals and season of life.
- Accountability: Consistent check-ins so you can stay focused, supported, and grounded.
- Stress Management: Techniques that reduce overwhelm and help you thrive, not just cope.
- Motivation: Encouragement to celebrate progress, build confidence, and stay connected.
What you won't get
- Medical Advice: Coaching complements — not replaces — your healthcare team.
- Generic Plans: Everything we do is personalized to you.
- Quick Fixes: Real change is meaningful, steady, and sustainable.
- Therapy: Coaching focuses on forward momentum and habit building.
- Specialized Clinical Expertise: Coaching works alongside, not instead of, dietitians, therapists, or specialists.
