My method is all about communicating until I thoroughly understand, constantly revising what we are doing until we achieve ALL of your goals together. We are a team, and I've got your back. I will listen and then provide you with advice and expertise from 30+ years of study and experience in various types of athletics, optimally healthy vegan cooking, and being in the modeling industry for over 3 decades. I have interviewed the top vegan athletes, chefs, and nutrition scientists in the world with Vegan Health & Fitness and worked with top beauty experts professionally as a model. In fact, I have become friends with many top athletes, chefs, scientists, and experts. I have unique access and insight on what the top people do to achieve their goals - and I will share their secrets with you! Whether you want to slim down, get curves, or gain muscles or speed, there are many methods that will work. Let's utilize the ones that make it fun for you. Maybe you just want to learn how to eat optimally healthy in a way that tastes great and will impress your friends and family. Let's take my decades of knowledge from studying vegan nutrition, culinary arts, and participating in (or having a front row seat for) the training of the best vegan athletes in the world, and put it to work for you! If you have been diagnosed with an illness, I am also happy to advise you on what the science says about overcoming that illness (providing actual studies and referring you to well-respected books and authorities to learn for yourself). It will likely require changing many things that you do to overcome an illness, and that part will be up to you. But, I will provide you with the knowledge you need and I will be your biggest supporter on your journey! If you are struggling with beauty or aging issues, I can help lead you to solutions that really work from cutting edge laser therapies to awesome homemade masks for hair and skin that transform. I am your coach and your cheerleader. I am an advisor and a friend in your time of need. You can count on me to be in your corner all the way. I am also open to recommending other coaches if what you need is beyond my expertise. Remember, I know many of the top people in the world of vegan athletics and health. Soon you will too. Text me to book a Zoom consultation and let's get the conversation started.
