Sara taught me exactly what I need to do to keep my blood sugar in check…[and] prompted my new mantra, which is “my body is on my team.” As long as I feed my body what it needs and what is good for it, it will work for me (no low blood sugar, no crazy cravings, etc.). Her tips were invaluable and I remind myself of them regularly!
The biggest change that I have experienced from working with Sara is that I am not what I think. That weight, exercise, and food are not the sum of who I am and what I believe that I am. This is a journey and I am well on my way. Sara is a great listener and gifted at beautifully articulating and affirming or reorganizing thoughts challenges and gifts that I was struggling through or celebrating.
Being introduced to Sara was, by far, one of my biggest blessings of this past year! Sara taught me more than I could have ever thought I needed to know about taking care of my whole self. She is a wellspring of knowledge and I cannot recommend her enough.
Working with Sara turned out to be the best decision I made for myself in 2018. This is not a one size fits all approach, Sara takes the time to get to know you, your history, your goals, and your strengths and weaknesses. I was able to lose weight and I no longer had frequent migraines, but most importantly, I have a new mindset when it comes to food which is truly the only way I was going to be able to sustain any change.
My experience with Sara was transformative. I no longer have the same
relationship with food. Instead of coming from a place of deprivation
and scarcity, emotional eating and the hamster wheel of negative
emotions this state produces, I now see the abundance of whole foods
that I can use to fuel my body for both physical and mental strength.
Since working with Sara, I have lost weight, but more importantly, I have gained tools to help me find better alignment and mental freedom from food. She taught me the power of the mind, slowing down, and leveraging a blood sugar balancing diet.
Sara's approach was totally different. Before we even started, she found out about ME and didn’t put me in the category with everyone else wanting to lose weight. Her response to me was one of the most VALUED pieces of advice I’ve received: "treat that as a gift.” I HIGHLY recommend Sara for a GIFT to yourself!!! What better way to honor and reward your body than with not only the nutritional aspect of eating, but with a tremendous mental transformation as well.
While being very knowledgeable on the topics of nutrition and holistic health, Sara is not the least bit judgmental of those who may be coming to her with bad habits in place and no prior experience with health conscious eating. She provided ample information and recipes throughout our coaching sessions and I truly felt like she cared about helping me find a solution that fit my lifestyle and needs. I'm so thankful I took the time to invest in myself and my health so that I can be a better, more energized Mom each day.
The changes have been amazing. I am not only physically lighter but emotionally lighter. Working with Sara has given me a new ‘way of life’. Sara is relatable, open and made me feel comfortable right away. She knows her stuff and if someone wants to work with her and is willing to put the work in I can’t imagine it would not change their lives for the better!
[Before working with Sara, I could] not finding satiety no matter how much I ate. [Since the biggest changes has been], my awareness about what I am eating and how it will fuel me. Prior to working with Sara, I ate to eat. I now think about what I need to eat to feel better and to use food as my energy source.
