About me
How I can help you:
Coaching bridges the gap between "information" (you know what to do) and "implementation" (but you aren't actually doing it).
My extensive experience and training in health science can help to give you more relevant and up to date information (including sorting facts from fads.) More importantly, coaching guides habit change itself to help you to meet your health goals.
The Balanced Life Program, is the closest thing that you can get to a multi-disciplinary program outside the medical system.
