About Take Care Coaching®
Take Care Coaching ® was founded in 2017 to meet a unique need, a need for positive change and chronic disease prevention. Obesity, cancer, and diabetes rates continue to rise each year. With an emphasis on prevention through healthy eating, exercise, stress management, and quality sleep we can reduce our risk for most chronic diseases and certain cancers. However, it can be hard to eat healthier, lose weight or start to exercise. Some times we know what we need to do, but aren't motivated to do it. That's where Take Care Coaching ® comes in. Take Care Coaching ® can help you reach your health and wellness goals through telephonic and video conferencing coaching sessions. Health coaching is a collaborative process by which coach and client work together to bring out the best in the client and help the client create and live the life they want to live.

Her Personal Wellness Story:
"From an early age, I've witnessed family and friends suffer from sudden illness and chronic disease. This has made a huge impact on my life. So much of what I've seen could have been prevented or better managed with healthier eating patterns, exercise, stress management, and other healthy behaviors. Through managing my own stress and life challenges, I have found success through evidence-based practices of meditation, healthy eating, and exercise. Now as a mom, it’s even more important I practice healthy habits so I can better take care of my family and be a healthy role model for them. It's become my mission in life to learn as much as I can about living a healthy lifestyle so I can help others live healthier lives too."
