Why I became a coach

MY JOURNEY

I've struggled with my relationship with food from a very young age. Growing up in a single-parent household, my mother battled emotional eating and obesity, which ultimately had an impact on me. As a result, I was bullied throughout elementary and middle school, and began to develop an eating disorder when I was just 14 years old. This struggle persisted well into my late twenties.

It wasn't until I hired a nutrition coach that I learned how to break free from using food as emotional support. Transforming my relationship with food changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. I no longer struggled with binge eating, was able to safely lose weight, and even got in the best shape of my life. Most importantly, I gained the self-confidence to evaluate all of my surrounding relationships.

The coach who helped me through this transformation changed my life, and it's now my mission to do the same for others. I'm located in Austin, Texas, where I'm a devoted wife, fur mommy to Samuel, and founder of Sophrosyne Health.

Why I became a coach

MY JOURNEY

My journey into the health and fitness industry began after years of struggling with drug abuse and being overweight, coupled with a lack of knowledge in proper nutrition. As a result of my drug addiction, I had inadvertently lost weight, but once I kicked the habit for good, I found myself without direction on how to maintain my health. It wasn't until I embarked on my own weight loss journey that I discovered my passion for health and wellness. I ultimately hired a coach who pushed me beyond my perceived limits, igniting my interest in the fitness and nutrition industry. Through strength training and other healthy practices, I successfully shed the extra weight and gained the confidence that had always eluded me. I am now committed to helping others achieve similar success by sharing my knowledge and expertise. In addition to my work in the health and fitness industry, I am also a devoted wife and mother of three. I am currently based in Carlsbad, NM.
