Fitness Philosophy
I coach clients all over the world via phone. My personal experience with permanent weight loss helps me deal with all the underlying reasons why most people find it hard to keep their weight loss. The mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of each client hold he clues to long-term success, yet we often get over-focused on the food or exercise aspects. Food and exercise are easy once we discover our sabotage points and make changes there.

Background and Availability

Background
In 1996, I was completely fed up with dieting, yo-yo weight regain and the rising dosage of antidepressants my doctors were recommending. Frustrated and angry, I decided to lose weight permanently. My doctors couldn’t help. Nutritionists, personal trainers and celebrity diet gurus didn’t have the answer. So, I set out to figure out the keys to permanent weight loss on my own. My quest led me through university nutrition courses, medical school libraries and file cabinets full of research. After losing over 70 lbs and keeping the weight off for over five years, I entered the elite club of people who achieve successful, permanent weight loss. And everyone was asking for help! I founded Catalyst Coaching(R) LLC with the mission of helping others lose weight permanently, so they would not have to do it over and over again. I earned the title “America’s Weight Loss Catalyst” via dynamic work with thousands of men and women via one-on-one personal coaching, seminars, workshops and her "enLIGHTen Your Life!™ Permanent Weight Loss Program."
