As a former consultant and project manager with an MBA from Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, I am highly skilled at helping my clients take action. However, I also know through personal experience, how too much left-brain focus can disconnect you from your body, spirit, and purpose in life.Read Full Bio

Since working with Erin, I have become acutely aware of the food/energy/health relationship and need for a balanced life and environment. I am more balanced in my work/home/life and feel better about myself and my choices. I now know that working out is key to my overall well-being and I’ve learned to make better overall choices. With Erin’s help, I learned to breathe, eat healthy, take time for myself, focus on what my needs and my body’s needs are, and think happy, relaxing thoughts. Without Erin’s help I could not have so successfully changed the way I eat, workout, work, focus on me and my relationships; nor would I have a clean, organized, efficient home office in which I can be productive!

Working with Erin helped me to lose weight (nearly 25 pounds and counting), have better skin tone, be more in control of my emotional highs and lows, and have clarity of thought. I learned to drastically limit my sugar intake, eat lots of greens, love grains, keep healthy foods on hand, and eliminate ice cream and fried foods from my diet. I am no longer chronically late because I wake up feeling well-rested and no longer hit the snooze button. I also no longer procrastinate at work, but rather I am full of new ideas and energy, am more productive and have a happier outlook on life.

I now sleep better and have much better digestion. I shop for food—even cook once a week and enjoy being in the kitchen! I love to chew my food fully and think about what’s in the food. I pay close attention to what I’m eating, and my weight is not an issue anymore. For anyone who is thinking about hiring his or her own health and lifestyle coach, I would say, go for it—it’s a great commitment to make to yourself.

My work with Erin has delivered real results in improving my health, my life. She has helped me to more clearly define personal goals and to make sustained progress towards them. With great listening, knowledge, dedication and integrity, Erin suggests creative and workable steps to help me help myself. And while food used to be an issue for me, Erin's caring support has helped me make food the foundation of a healthier life.

During the 6-month program, I learned to eat healthier with better food choices and snacks; I learned new recipes of great foods to cook. I also learned that taking time to breathe helps to center me and relieve my stress. The program gave me the chance to learn to eat better, exercise, and better manage my stress. Working with Erin was a wonderful experience! She is upbeat, patient, always smiling, and not judgmental.

The specific positive changes I’ve experienced since working with you are having more energy, more consciousness, slow weight loss, feeling more grounded and centered, yet also feeling lighter. What I loved most about the coaching program was being introduced to new foods and becoming more aware of my self-sabotaging conversations. I also loved the Whole Foods “tour” and the cooking classes. I learned what foods and combinations of foods work for me, and now eat breakfast daily. What I appreciated so much about working with you is your expertise and knowledge, gently imparted in a caring and committed fashion; your organization and follow-through; and your passion for your field. Being accompanied by a wise and caring coach on an on-going basis has been critical to my growth and learning.
