Hi, I’m Emily :)
Where My Journey Began…
For so many years, I struggled with my body and disordered eating…
Growing up, I was a very active and athletic child. From the time I could walk, I was involved in a variety of sports. I grew up in a family that prioritized health and healthy eating.
However, I was a very tall child and the uncomfortableness of being taller than my all friends morphed into a complete hatred for my body, and I began to take it out on my weight.
At an early age, I began to develop disordered eating and severe body dysmorphia. As early as 11 years old, I turned to extreme diets and workout regimes in an attempt to “fix my body”.
For most of my life, I avoided photos, dressing rooms, bikinis, shorts, etc. I skipped outings with friends/family because they involved food or drinks…
My weight roller-coastered as I went through cycles of restriction and bingeing…
I was unhappy and knew I had to make a change…
I knew the struggles I had gone through my whole life with fitness, nutrition, and body image. I also knew my heart was in health & fitness, and I wanted to not only change my life, but to also change others’.
So, when I graduated from Purdue University, I moved to Colorado to study at the National Personal Training Institute. I wanted to learn the science and knowledge behind health and fitness so that I could heal my mind and body, and help others to do the same.
When I completed Personal Training School, I became a NASM Certified Personal Trainer. I went on to receive my Fitness Nutrition Specialist and Weight Loss Specialist Certifications.
For a few years, I trained at a local gym, and have since founded my own Online Fitness & Nutrition Coaching Business.
It has been the most rewarding experience! There is a light in someone’s eyes when you see that you’ve helped them fall in love with themselves inside and out. That feeling is irreplaceable and every single person deserves that experience!
For every obstacle I have faced, there is also someone’s life that I got to help change! So to each and every one of you who feels like you’re struggling and need some help knowing where to start….I am here for you! I care about you and your goals, and I WANT to help you reach them.
There IS a way to achieve your goals without restriction, without endless hours of cardio, and without hating every minute of the journey.
Let me show you how!
Are you ready to commit to yourself and become the happiest and healthiest version of you??
