See what others think!

I've already had the opportunity to work with some amazing individuals! Coaching has become an incredible platform to dive deeper, uncover fears we didn't know existed and expose the hidden truths. With the proper support my clients were able to pave a way helping them get even closer to fulfilling their visions.

"Desiree has been a part of my support system. I have successfully lost 45 pounds and I remember one of the first things she ever said to me was that mental fitness is more important than physical. It's like I heard her, but I did not put forth the effort to make sure my mental health was in check.

Through my coaching sessions with Desiree, I discovered that in order to achieve my health goals I had no choice but to focus on my mental health or it would become my downfall. I realized I had the power to make the changes all along, but I just needed the right guidance. I can say honestly say that I still hear Desiree's words in my head to this day. Her and her coaching have been so beneficial and inspiring. I look forward to many more positive coaching sessions with her."

"I had the privilege to study alongside Desiree during some advanced educational courses. I was fortunate enough to work with her several times over the course of several weeks and witness her coaching abilities. I can say without any hesitation I would recommend any woman looking to fix her broken mindset, wanting to live life to its healthiest potential while being supported by an amazing guide who has faced all that and accomplished it herself. Work with Desiree! 

S he has an obvious deep passion to help others and truly cares about her clients and their entire health puzzle."

"Having Desiree as my Wellness Health Coach has been tremendously helpful in my life. I was able to meet with her before my skin removal surgery and she helped me achieve my weight loss goals before the procedure. I learned how to be more consistent with my exercise and meal planning. She gave me helpful tips on my food prepping along with some great easy-to-do recipes. Something I also learned from my coaching sessions was that I was in fact capable of setting stronger boundaries with others as well as myself. That, in turn, has been good for both my mental and physical health. Not to mention her own journey has been inspiring to me as well."

"As Desiree’s colleague, I’ve had the pleasure of listening in on her coaching calls. Desiree is a caring, thoughtful coach. Her presence and relationship skills and the way she establishes trust and rapport, makes her clients comfortable immediately; and I’ve witnessed clients opening up as soon as their first meeting with her. Desiree uses a variety of positive psychology and coaching principles that allow her clients to not only feel more comfortable, but to be able to express themselves more fully, and feel empowered in their ability to affect change in their lives. 

Desiree would be the first person I’d call if I needed a coach and I highly recommend her."

~ Kimmie's Story ~

" As a busy single mom, working full time from home on second shift, I was constantly stressed when it came to providing healthy meals for my family. I felt like I was never prepared, and dinners were slapped together in a rush during breaks at work for the kids. I was constantly tired and struggling with trying to lose weight and feel strong in my body again. After a cancer diagnosis last year, and 2 years of an intensely stressful situation in my life, I was drained and not feeling like ME anymore.


I was inspired by Desiree's impressive meal planning and prepping and knew I could do it too. I knew I had the resources I needed but was struggling with putting plans into motion and I couldn't figure out why. Desiree worked with me to first guide me through the emotions I was feeling around being better prepared and putting the work in to make my life smoother. During my coaching sessions with Desiree, I realized I had this fear that my life would continuously fall apart no matter what I did. I was afraid that if I put the work in, and really showed up for myself, I would lose it all again. I had become so accustomed to chaos that it was preventing me from taking the first steps to a healthier, less stressful life.


Desiree asked really insightful questions and helped me dig deeper to uncover and work through these feelings. Freeing that blockage was what I really needed to do in order to find my "WHY", my reason for taking better care of myself and my family. After I spent some time processing that with Desiree, she helped me to see how strong and resilient I had become to get through the last few years. I discovered that my strength could now be used to thrive, not just survive. I realized that I can now place my trust in MYSELF versus the ever-changing nature of life. So, no matter what may come, I know I can handle it, and that fear dissipated into confidence.


That realization was a miracle for me, and I was finally feeling the motivation to make the changes I needed to feel strong and happy again! Desiree gave me some great ideas for quick healthy meals, shopping on a budget, and how to make it all work with my busy schedule. I have regular check ins with her which really help to keep me accountable and aligned to my goals.

In a few short weeks, I am 10lbs lighter, have SO much more energy, I'm back on my yoga mat in the mornings, enjoying hikes and cycling again. And... our weekday dinners are so much smoother, healthier, and less stressful, which gives me more time to spend with my kids. I feel like ME again, and I cannot thank Desiree enough!!!!"
