New 1:1 Health Coaching Offering!

My active, healthy lifestyle is such a big part of my life. As a health coach, I love getting the opportunity to share some of my knowledge and passion about health, and to help support my clients in reaching their healthy living goals.

start living healthy

I believe there’s no greater feeling than feeling healthy & happy from the inside out! That feeling transcends into every other part of life. Making an active lifestyle a priority, feeling like you have the power in your diet, and coping with stress in healthy ways are some of the things that I work on with my clients.

Normally, I offer a 6-month health coaching program, where the client and I “meet” (via in person, Skype or phone) every other week to hold an hourlong session. In between those meetings, we often communicate via email, where I send motivational notes, informational handouts about things we’ve discussed, and answer any questions that pop up. My program is tailored to the individual, so I customize it depending on their needs and challenges.

To Be Healthy - quote

While 6 months is thought to be an ideal amount of time to make healthy changes a habit and create a new lifestyle that can stick, I understand that committing to 6 months is a lot for some people. That’s why I’m offering a brand new option that allows you to become a health coaching client without diving right into a whole program: a 6 session package!

6 Session Offer

Just what does this offering include?

  • An initial hour-long evaluation to discuss your healthy living goals & challenges, and to determine how we’ll reach them together
  • 6- 1:1 hourlong health coaching sessions – either in person, via Skype or on the phone
  • A customized health coaching plan tailored to meet your unique needs. This may include things like a meal plan, dinner recipe lists each week, learning techniques to reduce stress and be more mindful, working on developing a healthier relationship with food and weight loss counseling.
  • Unlimited email support in between sessions
  • Recipe samples, informational handouts, and inspirational notes to help increase your food knowledge & keep you motivated to achieve your goals
  • If you live in the San Diego area, I also offer grocery store sessions where we shop together and determine the best buys to fit your needs; cooking demos; and pantry sweeps to evaluate just what you’ve got in the kitchen (and what you might need to get rid of!).

a-year-from-now

Email me at nicole[at]foodielovesfitness.com to further chat about how I can support you in getting healthier & feeling great! 

The 6 session package is being offered now through the end of February 2016. 

Tell me… What’s one health goal you’re currently working on? 

I’m looking to improve the amount of time that I can hold a plank as part of a challenge that I’m doing with my HIIT gym. The zinger is that the plank has to be done with forearms and hands facing upwards, which I find so much harder! At the initial evaluation, I held it for 3:03, and I’d like to hold it for over 4 minutes at the end of the challenge in February.

Soaking up stunning views from a boat in Italy + cooling off with a swim & snorkel in the clear, refreshing water + sipping champagne = heaven on earth! ✨☀️🥂

Deets: 
📍Giardini Naxos, Sicily
😎 Boating excursion via Sicily Jet Surfing 
🌎 Booked with @getyourguide — I booked 2 things with the platform on this trip & we loved both activities!

We’ll be kicking off our week of family birthdays with my wonderful husband turning the big 4-0! 

Something that intrigued me about Adam when I met him 20 years ago was that he seemed serious & quiet, but then would unexpectedly say something super witty or do something silly that cracked me up… & his serious-with-a-side-of-goofball personality remains true to this day (case in point: this video montage 😂)

After all, they say to marry the one who makes you laugh — and I, for one, highly recommend it❣️ Here’s to hoping the next 40 years are full of many more amazing adventures & accomplishments!

1️⃣ fun-filled day in Istanbul! 📍

Our favorite parts: 
⭐️ Sultanahmet Square’s interesting historic sites, including the German Fountain & the Egyptian Obelisk 
⭐️ Visiting the beautiful Blue Mosque
⭐️ Exploring the historic district and trying the street food (Why is the ice cream so.. sticky?!🍦) 
⭐️ Venturing through the hectic Grand Bazaar 
⭐️ A delicious dinner @amedroscafe 
⭐️ Making friends with stray cats.. so many friendly cats! 🐈 As a huge animal lover, I adore that the city seems to take good care of its strays.. This is the first place I’ve ever been where they have vending machines to buy food for stray animals!

When I was newly pregnant with Camryn before we knew her gender, I had a vivid dream that I was picnicking with a little blonde girl in front of the Eiffel Tower. I woke up and told my husband, “Guess what? We’re having a girl!”

We got Camryn a passport at 5 months old with the idea that we’d visit Paris later that year and turn my literal dream into a reality. But then, COVID hit a few weeks later.

By the time we’d be comfortable traveling to Europe, we instead were selling our house in New England and traveling around the U.S. full-time.

We had adventures in plenty of other amazing places, but Paris remained a bucket list item.

…until now! Our picnic in Paris as a family of three may have happened a few years later than planned, but it was a bucket list item that was exactly how I’d pictured, perhaps even better.

It was such a magical evening staring at the Eiffel Tower, sipping champagne, and noshing on local food that we’d nabbed at shops around town ✨🥂

— all the while, laughing & soaking up the night with our wonderful little girl. 💗

Do you remember when you truly realized that the world is wide and you’ve only experienced a speck of it? 🌎

For me, it was the eye-opening opportunity of a college study abroad program in amazing Sicily. I fell in love with Italy, and the experience made me realize that I wanted to prioritize traveling and living in different places when I became a “real adult” (or in other words, when I graduated the following year). 

Getting to return to the charming town of Taormina nearly two decades later with my family was a dream. 

I returned to Sicily in a different phase of life: Older — I’ve almost doubled in age! Wiser. A mom. A wife. 

Yet, still wide-eyed, always up for an adventure, and filled with wonder at the beauty of this world. 

Different, but the same. 

Taormina is still stunning, bustling with more tourists and more fame than I remembered thanks to things like “White Lotus” and Dolce & Gabbana fashion shows (one was happening while we were in town). 

And so, I found Taormina herself to also be different, but the same — and definitely still a magical place ✨
