Signature Program: chapterU-Your Best Chapter

Are you…

  • Struggling with stubborn middle age weight gain— and totally frustrated with your lack of results, no matter how little you eat or how much exercise you do?

  • Feeling badly about aging and the sudden changes in your body—particularly abdominal fat and belly bloat (spare tire, menopausal middle/pouch/apron)?

  • Wanting to feel more energized and fit comfortably into your clothes, but are too tired, stretched too thin, overwhelmed or feel stuck?

  • Riding a hormonal and emotional roller coaster-every day?

If you can relate to any of the above, you are in the right place and not alone. It’s normal for women (and men) between the ages of 38-65 to struggle with weight and the other changes going on in our bodies.

Good news. I’ve figured out a natural, easy and lasting solution to maintain my weight and stay healthy, energized and strong. I want to share my knowledge, strategies and resources with you to help you get the best version of you back.

I have always been very hard on myself, my worst critic, and have a hard time seeing my accomplishments. Prior to working with Susan, I was struggling with my activity level, my organizational skills at home, and running around with two busy kids, managing two different sports. It was very easy to grab take out on the way to a game, or just not eat at all because I thought I didn’t have time.

Susan helped me establish goals to work towards, gradually so they weren’t overwhelming, and showed me that small victories are just as important as big ones. I almost cried when, during our final session, she read to me a list of my NSVs (non-scale victories) that I should be proud of, and helped me realize that small changes every day really do add up!

Since working with her, I’ve become more cognizant of my eating habits, and am much better at keeping easy and healthy food choices on hand for when I’m on the go. Not just for me, but for my whole family. Meal prep is becoming part of my routine, and I use many of the delicious and healthy recipes she shared with me. I’ve also realized that I can apply the “small victories” theory to many areas of my life, the most important at this time being decluttering and making my house (my kitchen in particular) feel more like a home. I am truly grateful for her guidance, her desire to help me live a healthier life, and now, her friendship!


I actually feel like eating is more of an adventure now...Best of all I don’t feel deprived!

I have to say that one of the great things about this program is it forces me to focus on myself ... something that women often have a hard time doing because we’re concerned with everyone else’s needs and well-being

. I’m learning new things about myself just by taking the time to consider what’s good for ME .... it’s kind of freeing and exhilarating to be all about me for a change. Ha!

“I was really stuck in some old habits and ways. Overall, I was really not feeling myself and was just not able to get moving with eating well and exercising. With Susan’s support, I’ve gone from stuck to un-stuck and it’s exactly what I needed. Someone cheering me on and keeping me honest with check ins. I’ve lost 10 pounds since I started working with Susan.
