All options are designed to fit into real, busy lives and are customized to support lasting, healthy habits.

Q: How do I know which program is right for me?
A: We’ll figure that out together during your free consultation. We’ll talk about your health goals, current lifestyle, and budget to determine whether individual coaching, group support, or NDPP is the best fit for you.
Q: What is the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP)?
A: The NDPP is a CDC-recognized, year-long program that helps individuals reduce their risk of type 2 diabetes. It focuses on healthy eating, increasing physical activity, managing stress, and making gradual, sustainable lifestyle changes. I guide you through the program step-by-step with accountability and support.
Q: I’m super busy—will this actually work for my lifestyle?
A: Yes! As a busy professional myself, I design my coaching to fit into your life, not take it over. We focus on small, meaningful changes you can actually stick with—even when your schedule is packed.

NDPP: 12-month program (weekly at first, then monthly)
Individual & Group Coaching: Minimum 6 months, with the option to continue beyond that
