"My anxiety is much better... I now have the tools I need to help manage my stress when I need to"
I started coaching sessions with Christy at one of the highest anxiety points in my life. My stress levels were becoming unmanaged, and the tools I had always relied on were no longer enough. I am so thankful to have had Christy as a coach, it was really nice that she could understand both my work stresses as a nurse, and then just the normal stress outside of work. I have always tried to take care of myself physically but emotional wellness has always been a low priority for me. Being a mother of two young boys and a fulltime nurse I just felt there was no time left for me.
Christy showed me the tools to take control of my stress and anxieties and to prioritized time for self-care, and the it was okay to have me time. Like she would say, self-care is one way for me to refill my tank. I had never looked at it like that, but she is right. Christy has taught me how to set boundaries, and that it is okay to say no. She helped me set goals, and gave me the accountability I needed to achieve those goals while continuing to set new ones.
Through Christy’s coaching it has taught me to set boundaries, goals, take time for self care, and simply that it is okay to say no, I have been able to feel more in control of my life again. My anxiety is much better, and I now have the tools I need to help manage my stress when I need to. I am hugely thankful for Christy’s coaching, and would highly recommend her, which I often do.

"I was at a crossroads in my career and not sure where to go next"
I was at a crossroads in my career and not sure where to go next. Christy provided a safe space for me to open up to myself and explore deep within, helping me to realize what was holding me back and what I needed to do to move myself forward. She supported me and gave me the time I needed to put a plan in place that was right for me. I am now consistent with my daily goals of self care, which has led me to a place of self contentment and put me on a new path in my career which I love. I would recommend Christy to anyone looking for that missing link to bring about positive change in their lives.

"Before working with Christy I was feeling work and life quickly burning me out"
Before working with Christy I was feeling work and life quickly burning me out. I was too overwhelmed to make any changes or find the positive around me. While working with Christy I was able to focus on self care and the things I needed to be able to do my job and home life in the best way possible. By having accountability and support I was able to brainstorm and implement life changing practices to care for myself now but also for the future with the support and encouragement I needed to push past my brain blocks.

"I learned that taking care of myself should be a priority"
I was kind of all over the place and looking to prioritize what I wanted and needed to do. Christy helped me work through my own roadblocks to setting myself up for success and giving myself space to reevaluate as necessary. I was able to set some realistic goals and try to figure out the best way to reach them. I was able to once again implement practices that make my life easier, such as meal planning, that I had been struggling with in the chaos of life. I learned that taking care of myself should be my priority, now more than ever. Taking the time to lay out what I wanted and needed and how I was going to get there was a catalyst for some pretty important changes in my life.

"This Experience has been so helpful and life changing"
Before I started working with Christy, I had been working on trying to start a low FODMAP diet for over 6 months. Every time I would start, I would last about a week or two and then fall off. I had also been trying to quit drinking alcohol for quite sometime unsuccessfully. With the guidance of my naturopath, I switched to needing to start an anti inflammatory diet. I needed to quit coffee, alcohol, sugar, and a bunch of other things and I kept putting it off. Then I started working with Christy. She helped me develop achievable goals each week so it was more of a slow progression instead of all or none. She gave me great ideas for helping to wean coffee and stop drinking alcohol, the two things I struggled with the most. She kept me on track, and gave me positive reinforcement to keep me going. When I slipped, she made me feel ok about it and wasn’t judgmental. She helped me move on, not dwell that I made a mistake, and to get back on track for the next week. I have been doing the diet for 40 days now, my digestive symptoms are improving and I am starting to feel better. The coaching was a great experience, it helped so much. I have been trying to work on diet for digestive issues for years with either nothing working, or trying something and not being able to maintain it. I have gained new strategies to help keep me on track with not drinking, something that I hope I can continue for the rest of my life. I have learned to not be hard on myself if I have slip ups, it is only human, but to just move on and try again for the next week. This experience has been so helpful and life changing. I feel confident I can soon start to test foods to see what I can/can’t tolerate, a place I haven’t been able to achieve before. I would recommend the coaching to anyone who has lifestyle or dietary goals to achieve. It was great to have support and accountability.

"When I came to Christy I was struggling to find balance & manage stress"
When I came to Christy I was struggling to find balance, manage stress, and have accountability to take the next steps in my career. Christy helped me explore my limiting beliefs in problem areas, implement simple mindfulness practices, and put action plans in place that I needed to. She was a solid sounding board who provided a safe space for me to explore every area of my life. I would recommend Christy for anyone looking to make massive change in any area of their life.

I struggled with feeling overwhelmed and anxious on a daily basis. Through our conversations and practices, I’ve been able to do mindfulness practices consistently and slowly see a transformation towards being more present in my everyday life. Christy provided a comfortable and supportive environment. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to learn more about mindfulness or take their practices up a notch.

"Christy assisted me... [with] ways to help me remember that I do not need to be afraid of living"
I smile as I remember my conversations with Christy. She is a wonderful person and Nurse Coach. She helped me with my lack of motivation related to exercise and assisted me in my anxiety level and how to be more grateful in life and for all my blessings. One of the major things that Christy assisted me with was helping me to be accountable for my actions with regards to food and exercise. Christy assisted me in finding types of exercise that I enjoyed and will continue to do going forward. This has not only helped me with my weight issues, but health as well. I have always been a very anxiety ridden/worry wort for as far back in life as I can remember. Christy assisted me with coming up with way to avoid triggers and ways to help me remember that I do not need to be afraid of living. She helped me come up with ways to find things in every day that I am truly thankful and grateful for. Being grateful and not taking these blessing for granted assisted in decreasing my anxiety and worrying. I really enjoyed talking with Christy and hearing her ideas and suggestions to assist me going forward each week. Together we came up with some wonderful plans for my life.
