Yes – this is my before/after pic.
Before I was a pro running and weight loss coach, I had fallen into a period of overworking myself, putting everyone else’s needs before my own and despite running, I wasn’t losing weight.
I also went through a series of medical misdiagnoses that led to tons of medications, with side effects so bad I had to stop running due to cardiac effects.
The medications shut down my metabolism and caused my weight to spiral even more out of control. My health was crumbling, I was badly fatigued, became depressed and was in the worst shape of my entire life.
The before picture wasn’t even at my heaviest as I would run away from the camera. I felt the real me was hidden inside.
To top it off, I had experienced trauma and as a result realized I had also been using the weight to hide myself away from the world.
But at one point, I had enough. The pain of going on as I was outweighed anything else.
This is something you have to want for YOU.
So I said NO MORE and got off all the meds. But then… I had to lose the weight just like anyone else – except starting with almost almost zero metabolism due to the medications.
When I found out how to do it – it felt so great to release the real me, that it inspired me to help others just like you do it too.
Simply going on a diet fails because losing weight involves many factors.
If I can do it after all that, I can guide you in this same program to lose the weight and be healthier too.

When you lose weight you gain so much LIFE!
I also noticed that I must have a gift for this because even before I was professionally trained and developed this method, I helped two former roommates lose 60+ and 100-lbs each.
One is also now a distance runner too and the other is a fitness instructor.
Remember: You become like those you choose to associate with! Are you ready?
You may have tried a lot of fixes and found that they don’t stick or aren’t maintainable.
Leave that behind and let me help you get what it takes for YOU to lose weight for good.
Instead, get a personalized, easy-to-follow program that gets you to a place where your positive changes stay.
I use an expert knowledge of weight loss, running, health, mind-body principles and easily achievable goals so that the new, optimized lifestyle that you get from The Breakthrough Method brings out the real you.
The Breakthrough Method is different because it’s not just about a number on the scale or some crash diet that makes you feel badly.
Instead, I look at your life holistically and where you are in your own running journey so you can lose weight and be healthier.
Therefore, you may also improve other problems that contribute to weight loss woes such as stress/mental strain, nutrition issues or sleep problems.
So more than just weight loss – YOU get healthier, and your running improves as well.
The Method is easy to understand:
1. Schedule a free, no-obligation session with me. If there are spaces in The Breakthrough Method program available, you will be linked to my scheduling calendar. If the program is currently full, you will instead be able to join a waitlist to be notified for the next available spot.
2. During your initial 30-minute session, we will discuss your overall goals, and you can also ask any questions you have. I can also fill you in on the current available package options, and any bonuses you may be eligible to get.
3. Your comprehensive 12-week weight-loss program then gets jump started with an extensive initial evaluation all about YOU. You can answer the questions securely and privately online at your convenience.
4. Then, you get an in-depth, 60-90 minute focused session with me to go over your evaluation, and dig deep into your wants and motivations. I’ll guide you in discovering your Ideal Vision of you at your BEST, plus create clear, realistic milestones with an actionable plan so you can move forward.
5. I’ll work with you set weekly goals personalized to you – and real, concrete strategies that work for you to reach them.
6. You then get to meet with me in weekly sessions with your choice of a phone or videoconference. I’ll check-in on your progress so you’ll always have accountability and your questions answered. I’ll help you set new milestones as you reach your goals, and further customize your personalized strategy to lose weight, be at your healthiest to feel and run your best.
By the end of the 12-week program, you will not only have lost weight, but also have a concise, written and practiced strategy that works for you and your life. You will have a new holistically healthy lifestyle that supports your goals and your running.
Schedule today and let’s chat.
Despite being 39, Steph is now living her Ideal Vision and is back to what she weighed in her 20’s. While losing weight she also attained more self-confidence and mental strength.
Before starting The Breakthrough Method with me, she went to a run club and felt self-conscious that she was the slowest one, people had to keep stopping and waiting for her, and so she didn’t go back.
Now after The Breakthrough Method, she is passing those same runners in races, breaking PR’s and soon running her own Boston Qualifier.
She says:
Working with a professional who knows all about run training paired with weight loss, you can get The Breakthrough Method on it’s own, or hand-in-hand with Private Run Coaching or a Training Group for a comprehensive total package.
Please be aware: some people call themselves coaches by making commissions selling you products, supplements or extreme diets that you don’t need or that may be unsafe for you as a runner – or even your life.
Or, through one-size-fits-all exercise programs that don’t work for you, or diet methods that don’t work for runners, or a woman’s metabolic needs.
Instead, with The Breakthrough Method you get a method geared toward getting you to your goals through evidence-based, proven principles.
Therefore, I do not sell/ask you to buy supplements, or use diets or workout programs that may not be right for you or your running.
The techniques are derived from the gold-standard of professional coaching with a weight-loss focus, combined with an extensive knowledge of running so you get optimal results.
Beyond losing weight, the Ideal Vision that I’ll help you craft includes more than just getting to a clothing size or number on the scale. You achieve a holistic, balanced, healthy lifestyle that has also included benefits such as:
You get a whole-person centered approach that listens to you and works with you to get the motivation, guidance and accountability you need to succeed and achieve your personal goals.
You will not find unrealistic promises in this program, but you will get strategies that work for you to achieve your goals long-term.
You will gain the holistic, healthy body and lifestyle that gets you your best running and life.
Everyone who has gone through the program with me has lost weight! (I will rewrite this if it ever changes, but I don’t think it will 😉 )
Don’t wait!
People say that they wish they would have started this a long time ago, but there is a saying that goes… “The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago… the next best time is NOW!”
Only you can decide where you will be in just 12 short weeks from now! Schedule a free consultation below to take the first step.
In this program you get to discover the strategies that work for you, personally, to lose weight.
Once you unlock the “secret” of what works for you, you can go on to continue onward to lose any amount of weight that gets you to your ideal weight.
By the end of the 12-weeks, you will normally have your strategy mapped out, which saves you money as you are not paying for a program indefinitely.
During the 12-week program, clients have lost that stubborn last 5-10 lbs up to 40-lbs and have continued to lose weight with their customized strategies after the program ended.
Runners of any level can benefit from this program.
While long distance runners have found this has worked for them to get weight loss when nothing else has, newer or returning runners find this program helps them lose weight, stick to their new running programs, and find motivational strategies so they can make their running and nutritional habits last.
Because in addition to weight loss and improved running – it benefits your health! And let’s be real, who doesn’t want better health?
Also, normally, I only offer personal online run coaching to those with a marathon or ultra goal.
However, as an added benefit, I do allow runners of any level who are being coached in the Running + Weight Loss Program to enter into Online Run Coaching, so they can get more structured running guidance and that extra push they may need.
No supplements or diets of any type!
And, I would be suspicious of anyone who tried those methods. Just because those supplements or that extreme diet plan worked for them, does not mean it will work for you and may even be dangerous.
Some supplements also do not work well for running, because many have cardiovascular side effects that are dangerous that do not work well with exercise.
If there was a supplement or diet plan that worked for everybody – let’s be honest, everyone would have bought it by now.
Instead, coached weight loss is a newer method in which we work to find the blueprint of what works for YOU, your running and your lifestyle.
