“If someone else can do it, you can too.” – Transformational Coaching Method
Hi, I’m Paige! Hundreds of my clients have changed their lives in the most powerful way imaginable — by being true to themselves.
I’ve supported them along the way as a Certified Health Coach and with my expertise in cultivating a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
I studied at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, The Health Coach Institute, and alongside Evelyn Tribole in her PRO-Skills Training, where I become a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor.
I have years of experience working directly with women just like you.
If you find yourself in these stories and would like to feel free too, your next step is to book a FREE 60-minute Discovery Session.
I know it can be hard to fully grasp how much you can gain from working with a coach one on one, so read the stories of the women who have worked with me in my six-month Program before, to find out what’s possible for you.

“The person I am today is the person I wanted to become when I started my journey with Paige.”
My experience may be a bit different than many of Paige's past clients, as I was actually friends with her before ever enlisting in a coaching relationship with her. I've followed Paige's journey as a coach since we first met, and always found her work both inspirational and thought-provoking, but it wasn't until I really hit my version of "rock bottom" that I actually chose to pull the trigger. And boy am I so glad I did.
Let's start with the good: the person I am today is the person I wanted to become when I started my journey with Paige. If that doesn't tell you enough about Paige's skills in mentoring her clients, I DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL! I am happy with my body, the progress I have made and the habits that I have formed to feel unapologetically ME. The healthy, happy, comfortable and confident version of me. I have worked through so many thoughts of doubt, stubbornness, and defeat to get here and I can honestly say I could have never done this without Paige's guidance.
It's funny thinking back on it now, because the questions in my mind at the beginning of our time together -- around how we could possibly work through everything I wanted to get through, how I could get back to what feels "normal" to me, and how I could make some serious life changes in just 6 months time without giving up what I love -- seem so silly now. We got through it all and then some, and I was even able to donate one of my sessions because I was feeling so good about what we had accomplished.
I think the biggest thing that I learned is that the way I think about certain things -- food, alcohol, sleep, time management, juggling other people's priorities with my own -- can be changed. It can improve, it can evolve, and you can learn to have everything you want by just looking inward more and thinking about these things in a different way. You can ask yourself the right questions in order to make better decisions for you to be the best version of you. That's what changed me the most and differentiates Paige from other coaches I have worked with. And at the end of the day, IT WORKED. No further proof needed than that 🙂
I want to express something important to other people reading this, in the event that they felt the same way I did. I remember expressing to Paige that I was worried she might not be the right fit for me, as I didn't want a coach that would simply tell me something like, "It's ok, your body is just changing, embrace it." I wanted someone to help me get back to what felt right to me (which, at the time, I referred to as "get back to my normal weight"). I guess I took Paige's thoughtful words of encouragement within her emails, social media, etc. as possibly "too soft" and therefore not what I wanted, but my oh my, was I so wrong! Paige is soft, but that's what makes her such a great coach and person. She knows exactly how to make you think about things without calling them out in a negative way, she relates without discouraging, and she is extremely motivated to help you reach your goals. That's why each session we had ended in action items that Paige emailed me afterward to hold me accountable, and to help me start to formulate the habits that have now changed my life. So, what I thought might be an approach that was "too accepting," was actually not correct at all. Paige simply wants to help you figure out and then reach your goals (healthy ones) no matter what they are, and will guide you through the proper process and work needed to get there. That's exactly what I needed.
One other thing I will say about my time with Paige: the changes crept up on me FAST without really even realizing it. I was so focused on putting in the work and building consistency in how I thought about certain things that I didn't really even notice that the change was happening right before our eyes. I feel like I was pretty hard on myself during some of our sessions, not understanding why these habits just hadn't come naturally to me yet, why it was so hard to stay motivated, etc. I wasn't really "seeing the results." But then one day, I did. It was like a revelation hit. I remember texting Paige immediately and expressing it... "Paige, I think I did it. I think I am back to my normal again!" All that time that I was doubting myself for not building the habits soon enough, the work was definitely being done and it was working, even if I didn't really notice it as it was happening.
Paige is an extremely good listener, whose wheels start turning as soon as you start talking and answering her thoughtful probes. She will furiously write notes to ensure nothing is missed during a session, and will NEVER judge you. I really love and appreciate this about her.
The last thing I will say is, DO IT ALL. Trust the process. Text Paige when you need her, don't think twice about it. Bring stuff up in sessions even if it is uncomfortable, embarrassing, or something you feel you failed at. There is always a way to work through it and Paige will just "do Paige," guiding you through it all.
I have so much love for this incredibly amazing woman entrepreneur. And you will too 🙂 THANK YOU, my friend."
“I have grown in so many ways from working with Paige. I have the tools and skills to cope better with comparison and listening to my body. I can be more mindful when eating and I can give myself permission to eat what my body is asking for, even carbs for each meal if I want!”
When I signed up with Paige I was anxious; worried about what others were thinking of me as well as comparing myself and my relationships to others. I knew the person I wanted to be and wanted more to life but just felt like I needed help to get there.
After the discovery session with Paige, I felt so hopeful. She is so incredibly easy to talk to!
Some of my initial goals were to stop comparing my life and body to others, find gratitude and joy in life by quieting those anxious thoughts as well as to be more mindful of feeling full after eating.
In the last few months, I have grown in so many ways from working with Paige. I have the tools and skills to cope better with comparison and listening to my body. I can be more mindful when eating and I can give myself permission to eat what my body is asking for, even carbs for each meal if I want!
After working with Paige, I just feel lighter in my approach to life in general and don’t feel as much pressure when making food choices. I am better in making intentional choices for what I need as well as my body.
The best part of working with Paige is that she is understanding and compassionate with her clients. She makes you feel so comfortable opening up and being honest about how you are feeling. I loved how she was able to pose challenging questions during our sessions to really make me think and come up with action steps following the sessions.
I would definitely recommend Paige’s six month program to those struggling with their eating, with body comparison, and igniting more joy in your life.
The most important thing to know about working with Paige is that she is so willing to help you. Her constant support helped me so much during these six-months."
“Food is no longer a ‘thing’ for me — I don’t struggle with body acceptance, and my life feels lighter, less hectic and more intentional.”
Every time I hopped on a call with Paige I felt like I was chatting with an old friend. She made me feel so comforted and accepted, it was easy to share my struggles with her - and she was equally as excited and encouraging when I began to have breakthroughs in the areas I was feeling stuck.
Paige helped me navigate honoring my body in new ways, getting past the fear of eating more, guided me to making choices for my future self and family, helped to guide me in big decisions in my life, letting go of what no longer served me and stepping into a better version of myself.
After working with Paige, food is no longer a ‘thing’ for me — I don’t struggle with body acceptance, and my life feels lighter, less hectic and more intentional. My marriage has improved through learning how to better care for myself and tune into my husband’s needs, and my kids can now enjoy a happier, less-stressed mom. I am confident these skills Paige has guided me through will carry me towards continuing to evolve into the woman I desire to be - joyful, intentional, and at ease with food, my body and my life as a whole.
For anyone considering investing in working with Paige, my husband’s comment when I told him I wanted to continue working with her speaks for itself - “We’ll make it work,” he said - because he has seen firsthand the changes she has helped me make in my life. I am so blessed and grateful to have worked with Paige, and I can’t wait to see how she continues to help me grow in the future."
“Paige helped me identify the roots of my emotional eating, and supported me in finding healthy ways to cope with emotions.”
Paige helped me identify the roots of my emotional eating, and supported me in finding healthy ways to cope with emotions. She was really supportive along my whole journey, always available and with a loving approach.
Paige genuinely cares about supporting her clients, I always felt safe and comfortable to share any struggle or feeling.
She also helped me to incorporate intuitive eating as a constant part of my lifestyle, even when I didn't feel that good about my body and had a tendency to go back to restriction.
I would highly recommend Paige as a coach for anyone struggling with low self-esteem, body, and food-related issues. She will help you regain your confidence and trust your body, and you will never feel alone."
“You will not regret the invaluable investment you make to really DO the change work through coaching. The best part is you don’t have to do it alone!”
With Paige's constant support I was able to meet all of the goals I set at the beginning of coaching. I was finally able to go from TALKING ABOUT change to actually DOING the change work.
Paige's voice of compassion, kindness and wisdom allowed my to tackle automatic negative thoughts (something Paige taught me about in coaching), false beliefs, and lies I had carried about myself for so long.
I would highly recommend working with Paige in a six-month coaching relationship! Working with Paige has been so beneficial to my well-being. She has helped me gain more self-awareness, self-compassion and has helped me to jumpstart my lifelong journey of food freedom.
You will not regret the invaluable investment you make to really DO the change work through coaching. The best part is you don't have to do it alone!
“I am now making food choices based on how I want to feel. I feel physically lighter and mentally clear-minded.”
A few of my goals were to consistently make food choices based on how I wanted to feel physically, emotionally, and mentally. I wanted to feel physically lighter and mentally clear-minded. I wanted to have a healthier self body image, to be less concerned about myself, so that I could love others better.
I am now making food choices based on how I want to feel. I feel physically lighter and mentally clear-minded. I trust the knowledge that I have gathered about a healthy diet. I no longer look for more information about nutrition and healthier diets. I trust the decisions that I have made about how I want to eat and feed my family. I am consistently meal planning from a simple list of meals that my family has chosen for what they like and how they want to eat.
As a family we have experimented and learned which foods do and don’t make us feel good. My teenagers have also had the opportunity to learn to cook and meal plan. Discerning how to eat based on how food makes them feel and being able to prepare those foods was a life skill that my husband and I felt was extremely important for our kids to learn.
I stopped reading about diets, nutrition, meal planning etc. and just put into practice what I already knew.
Paige encouraged me to trust my judgment. To trust myself and what I already knew about how I wanted to nourish my family and myself. Paige also encouraged me to take action on a few things that I wanted to do but kept talking myself out of. It has brought me so much joy, to finally take action on those projects that are really important to me to accomplish. One thing that I appreciate about Paige, is that she is willing to learn from her clients and use that to help her grow.
For anyone who doubts themselves or struggles with analysis paralysis, I would recommend Paige’s six-month coaching program. She will help you to begin to see that you probably already know the answers that you are searching for. She will help you begin to trust and stop questioning what you already know is right and true for you."
“I no longer feel like intuitive eating is something I need to ‘work on’ or ‘get’ – it’s just living and eating! My life has changed so much in just six short months, and I will feel forever grateful for everything Paige has taught me.”
During my first call with Paige, she helped me paint a mental picture of what my current life would be like with the freedom and ease that I craved. I was instantly hooked and wanted to start working that very second so I could make that mental picture a reality!
When I started working with Paige, I had this wild hope that everything would magically click and I’d be living in my mental picture right away. But, that's not how it works. It took a lot of introspection and patience for me to get to where I am today. Luckily, Paige has tons of patience to spare! While it wasn’t a magic click into place right away, after time, the pieces started coming together and Paige gave me so much insight into my own thoughts, feelings, and actions.
Today, I feel relieved and so much more calm when it comes to my cravings and listening to my intuition. In our work, I was able to discover what that actually meant to 'listen to my intuition.' Though it's not perfect (that's no longer my goal), I have found much of that ease and freedom we painted in my mental picture at the very beginning. I no longer feel like intuitive eating is something I need to 'work on' or 'get' - it’s just living and eating! My life has changed so much in just six short months, and I will feel forever grateful for everything Paige has taught me."
“EVERY SINGLE time after our coaching call my heart was lighter and I, to my surprise, had added even more tools to help me move forward.”
In our first session we talked about my self-worth and value. In that session, Paige said something along the lines of: ‘I want you to think about what you’re making it mean about yourself (your value/worthiness) when you have nothing to do. Your value is unchanging, even if you’re doing nothing.’ I was in the habit of using snacks to fill my time of “nothing to do” so that I could feel like I was doing SOMETHING. Paige helped me to see, and to question, why I choosing the discomfort of eating (and getting too full) versus just allowing myself to sit and enjoy a slow moment of downtime. She taught me that I had the ability to choose how I could approach downtime and helped me to figure out how I could begin getting comfortable with ‘doing nothing’ and just being.
There were many times before Paige and I had a coaching call where I wasn’t sure what we would talk about that day. When I felt like we had talked about a subject many times before, I questioned what else I could possibly have to learn about that subject? But EVERY SINGLE time after our coaching call my heart was lighter and I, to my surprise, had added even more tools to help me move forward.
Because of this, I was able to reach all of the six-month coaching goals that I had written out before our first session. Wow! To name a few: 1) I eat when I am hungry and do not allow food to have power over my life 2) I allow myself to spontaneously go out and enjoy the moment without worrying 3) Alone times are no longer stressful and filled with food, instead they are a refreshing downtime that I can look forward to (I now have other things that I enjoy doing in my downtime and I know how to resist urges to snack, just to feel momentary comfort).
Paige is a great listener and asks appropriate, thought-provoking questions to help you move ahead when you’re feeling stuck or think that you’re not making progress! She will also help you to see where you ARE making progress, when you feel like you aren’t 😉 I would recommend her six-month program if you are struggling with rules and shame around food and/or if you are feeling that food just has too much power in your life. Paige will help you to process your thoughts and feelings and ask the right questions to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel (to give you hope of a future peaceful relationship with food).
A few words/phrases that I highlighted from what we covered in our sessions together: trust, value, self-worth, moderation, ‘I have a choice,’ ‘you are trustworthy and your intuition works,’ ‘practice feeling how you want to feel,’ thoughts of contentment, and not comparing.”
“I genuinely feel so much lighter in my thoughts, my harsh inner critic is much quieter and more gentle and I am much calmer around food…and these changes are generally consistent now, which is amazing!”
I had done various therapies over the years which helped me to uncover WHY I was the way I was, but nothing had really helped me to make any lasting changes, and I was skeptical that anything could actually help me. It was basically out of desperation that I contacted Paige in the last-ditch hope that I could feel free from the control food had over me. I really wanted to have more headspace to be present with my husband and kids and so that I could live life rather than spending it preoccupied with food and weight....and I have to say, Paige really helped me to finally FEEL FREE in terms of my relationship with food.
I genuinely feel so much lighter in my thoughts, my harsh inner critic is much quieter and more gentle and I am much calmer around food...and these changes are generally consistent now, which is amazing! After almost 30 years of struggling in my relationship with food I never believed I could change, but working with Paige just gradually helped me to transform my thought patterns and habits and it has totally changed my life for the better.
Paige's style is gentle, authentic and non-judgemental and I always looked forward to our sessions. Even though sometimes it was hard and I thought it wasn't working, Paige always met me where I was at and had faith that I could make the changes I needed to.
If you are someone who, like me, struggles with being preoccupied with food, diets, bingeing, and feeling stuck in these negative cycles then Paige's six-month program is for you. Just do it - working with Paige will not only transform your relationship with food, it will change your relationship with yourself, and therefore really help the other relationships in your life too.
“If you have a small voice telling you this could be for you, I can bet that it is. I will never regret my work with Paige, in fact, it’s the best thing I have ever done.”
I couldn’t do it anymore — nor should I have had to. My friend immediately told me about Paige and her work and said, "you need to do this.” I hung up the phone and immediately dove into Paige’s work. Her blog, her Instagram, her website — her testimonials. Everything that was written in Paige’s story, her content, and the stories of others she had helped felt eerily relatable — as if the women that were writing, Paige included, were me.
I signed up for my Discovery Session without hesitation.
To back track a bit, I had been struggling with my relationship with food and body as well as striving for perfection in pretty much every other area of my life for years. I had tried every diet you could count, had become obsessed with binge eating / crash dieting which left me in the trenches of depression and anxiety, and I had also done many things to try to get better. It was hard to talk about with therapists, friends, and family — not because they weren’t there for me, but because they didn’t get it (and I’m SO glad they didn’t!).
It wasn’t until my Discovery Session with Paige that I finally felt fully understood. I felt very excited for my session, because at that point I was a bit of an open book and was ready to try ANYTHING to help me through it. My only hesitation was in telling Paige all of the weird obsessive tendencies I had around food and other areas of my life which I had developed over the years, “would she think I’m insane?” I wondered.
Let me tell you, she did not. I immediately felt at home with Paige. She listened to me, she trusted me — she made me feel less alone. After I hung up, I felt like the weight from years of wondering, “what am I going to do?” was lifted. I decided I was going to prioritize and enroll in her program. What was I going to lose if I did? Nothing. What was I going to lose if I didn't?
Everything.
During my work with Paige, I could feel myself getting lighter. No more diets. No more crazy schedules. No more “perfect.” Paige made me comfortable to tell her everything — from my past to my current feelings to everything in between. When I did revert back to old habits during my work with Paige, she listened to my story without judgment — never making me feel less than or “bad” about anything, but rather, making me feel empowered and knowledgable about my progress and what I was capable of in the midst of setbacks.
Through working with Paige, I have felt as though I have someone walking alongside me in my journey. While I am continuously working on myself, I am now lighter, more free — happier. I am light years ahead of where I was when I started my work with Paige in September.
When I went home for the holidays during our work together, only 4 months later, my friends and family that I only see but once or so a year couldn’t help but notice how different I was. “You are so, you,” was a common thing I heard. I was freer, I was present, I was silly, I was able to do things for the sake of doing them and listen to my friends and family, and most importantly, I was back to me. I was back to the me they had known before unhealthy ways of thinking entered my life and took reign.
The whole reason I started with Paige was because I could tell that my struggles were getting in the way of my relationships with loved ones. I wouldn’t want to go on trips or would cancel on plans or just not be present in conversations worrying about the food I was eating or how I looked that day. Realizing that my work with her was leading me to nurture the relationships with those I love and cherish most made me realize that this was exactly where I needed to be.
I couldn’t recommend Paige enough to someone who is in need of self-compassion and healing their relationship with food, body, money, schedules, career — really, anything! I’ve seen my life improve in all areas, because as Paige says, “the way you treat one thing, is the way you treat all things.”
Paige gives you actionable, reasonable, and even fun steps to take in order to move forward in your life and be happier. From mindset shifts, to eating dessert (yep, eating dessert!) you get to work on things you want and need to work on each day.
If you’re reading this, or you have a small voice telling you this could be for you, I can bet that it is. I will never regret my work with Paige, in fact, it’s the best thing I have ever done."
“I now KNOW with absolute certainty, that another diet is not the answer… You won’t regret working with Paige.”
It started with Weight Watchers a few years ago. I lost weight, had so many people complimenting me for a year or so, and then spent the subsequent 4 years trying to get back to that inevitably elusive goal weight as soon as real life took hold. The compliments were gone and so was all my worth I'd put in being thin. I couldn't handle another diet, my mind would just skip ahead to 4 months time when I'd put all the weight back on again as I knew I didn't want to count calories for my whole life.
Enter Paige.
During our first call, I was still holding onto weight loss. I knew I couldn't diet anymore, but I hoped weight loss would be the result of this new journey. Paige was compassionate and kind in this area and gave me many tools to slowly let go of this. The moment came a few months into our six month journey. Letting go of trying to control my body was the freedom I needed to look after her!
I can't believe that I have a future of peace with food. I'm still on the journey, still reviewing my notes from our sessions when I need them, but I KNOW with absolute certainty, that another diet is not the answer.
I am so grateful to Paige for the tools, language and compassion she unleashed upon me over the past six months. I have a few overseas trips coming up this year that would normally have me running to a diet for control, I now know I can simply be excited about them 'cause I deserve to enjoy them just as I am! At peace with food.
My advice to you is this: letting go of weight loss does not mean NOT getting to feel good. This was key for me. I love pursuing foods that make my body feel good and full for longer. In diet mode - I was never able to do that. Diets claim health and wellness but all they really are is FEAR dressed up. Ain't nobody got time for that!
You won't regret working with Paige <3
“I can’t even begin to describe all of the ways my life has been changed by working with Paige. She has taught me to listen to myself in a way I never have before.”
Immediately after my first session with Paige, I felt more at ease, like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I knew I had made a great decision and that Paige would be an excellent coach. One of the things that Paige helped me realize is that I did not need to be perfect with the changes I was making. Prior to working with Paige, whenever I tried to make a change to my habits, it was all or nothing. Whenever the first 'failure' occurred, I would throw the whole new habit out the window. Paige showed me how to have compassion for myself and for my journey to change.
I have implemented so many new, wonderful practices in my life while working with Paige. The most important (for me) is that I learned how to pause and evaluate what I need or want. This skill is important in both times of stress and times of ease. During stressful times, I have learned how to pause, quiet my mind, and stop to think about what needs to be done next. I am able to remind myself that it's OK and necessary to take that time. When I'm not under stress or at work, I am a person who has the constant nagging feeling that I need to or should be doing something productive; chipping away at my to-do list. I have learned how to balance my to-do list with things that I want to do. More importantly, I have learned how to balance WHEN I do those to-do's. I don't sacrifice things that will make me feel whole and happy just to complete something I feel I should be doing. As evidence of everything I have learned, it’s important for me to note that I'm *not perfect* at these new skills. Some days I don't pause. Some days I focus too much on hammering away at that to-do list. But today, I always come back to listening to my mind and body.
Paige is an excellent listener. I always felt that she was truly listening to what I had to say, and strived to understand my perspective. Paige was invested in my success from day one. I have benefited from our work together in more ways than I can list. But here are a few: My life is lighter. I finally decided to leave a job I no longer enjoyed. I stopped living my life by a set of 'should’s’ that were not serving me.
I would recommend Paige's program to anyone who is looking to make lasting, impactful change in their life. What you should know most about Paige as your coach is that she truly listens to her clients. Having her available in between calls was invaluable. She has the skills, training, and attitude to guide anyone to a better life. Every coaching call brought me comfort as well as new skills that allowed me to better enjoy my life.
I can't begin to thank her enough, but Paige, thank you, thank you, thank you!"
“Through this process I have learned something: I am not alone.”
I was taken back when I read one of her posts about having a good “relationship with food”. I immediately thought “Woah.. This girl may understand what Iʼm going through.”
When I first reached out to Paige I was hopeful but nervous. Nervous that this would be another person who wouldnʼt truly understand my unhealthy, rollercoaster obsession with food (I had already seen professionals for this sort of thing before).
After our first call I was excited, for many reasons. I knew that this process (working with Paige in her six-month program) would take work and I also felt peace that the tools she was going to give me were going to work for me.
Paige always had an equal balance of listening and understanding and speaking conviction and truth. Right off the bat Paige would refocus me on my TRUE why: that my relationships, my studies, my career, my health, my joy would continue to suffer if I didnʼt get healthy. NOT the "why" I used to have: thinking everything would be better if I could just lose 20 lbs and fit my clothes again.
Through working with Paige, I learnt practical ways to deal with my harmful habits (physical and mental) and shift them into feel-good habits. Even more, she helped me to identify habits I didnʼt even know I had.
The best thing about working with Paige was that in the moments where I just didn’t want to break an old habit, make a change, or had felt like I failed to take a step forward, Paige was ALWAYS there! She was a text or email away, at anytime. Whether it was a message from her reminding me of the truth of who I am and what is important to me or a call to challenge me and get me out of my funk, she was there. This was so good!
Paige was never judgemental and always reminded me not to feel ashamed. Through this entire process I have realized something: I am not alone. She helped me to have great compassion and love for those around me as I learned that other men and women are struggling too.
If you are stuck in a pit, if you feel like you’re spiraling downward, or even if you are generally healthy and need someone to come alongside you to help you get to your next goal, I recommend Paige and at a minimum her six-month Program. Paige is an absolute gem— caring, honest, encouraging, real, and she knows what sheʼs talking about."
“I am so grateful I can now say I am able to listen to my body and I don’t feel out of control with food or fearful of any kind of food.”
After that first call, I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders. I knew intuitive eating (and intentional living) was right for me, but I couldn’t figure it out on my own. I had boughten books, read blog posts, and even taken part in Paige’s Finally Free Program. Although these were all amazing, it just wasn't clicking for me. I realize now that *I needed someone in my corner,* someone I could be completely honest with about my struggles and know that there would be no judgement - Paige has been that person for me the last six-months.
I was never honest about my emotional pull to food, how I would use it to cope with hard feelings or the binges that took place with anyone before Paige. I knew at the beginning of our journey together, my main goal was to figure out and improve my relationship with food and I am so grateful I can now say I am able to listen to my body and I don’t feel out of control with food or fearful of any kind of food. For example, I always thought I would be the person who felt the need to finish everything I was eating or drinking even if I was full BUT the other week I purchased an iced chai tea latte, I drank about 2/3 of it then realized it wasn’t tasting good and I didn’t want anymore so I just threw it out, as easy as that.
I can honestly say, without my work with Paige, I would never have been able to listen to my body like I did in that moment.
Looking back now, it’s funny to think how worried I was that I wouldn’t be able to be honest with Paige (since I’d never been so open about my struggles with anyone before) but she is such a sweet, caring and gentle soul that she made it very easy, even when it was really hard. I never knew our conversations would lead to and positively influence many other areas of my life as well such as finances, relationships, alcohol, movement, work, puppies {!!!}, my anxiety, periods {yes!}, my home, etc. She always provided such good insight and asked the right questions; she was also available for support between sessions.
I wouldn’t even be able to count the number of times I said “I’ve never thought about it that way,” “that makes so much sense” and “yes, I love that” during our calls. I cannot recommend Paige as a health coach enough, especially for someone who feels like they don’t have anyone close to them who could understand their struggles/relationship with food - that was me. I reached out to Paige and took a leap of faith and she has changed my life in so many ways!"
“I have all the tools and Paige knows how to bring your vision into focus so you can realize your own potential.”
With Paige you know your privacy is respected. You’re listened to and are asked the best questions in order to reflect and understand where you are and how to change yourself. This is the BEST part. I have all the tools and Paige knows how to bring your vision into focus so I can realize my own potential. She never offers advice unless she asks first. (Hmmmm, I think I need to adopt this.)
I’m an older woman and believe that Paige is an ‘old’ soul. She’s wise and mature in her understanding and empathy. Compassion and understanding are definitely not foreign to her. There is nothing you cannot talk about with her. Paige is all that you see on her blog and on social media. She’s a truly sweet friend and one of the best coaches. (I think she’s better than a marriage and family therapist!)
If you’re not sure you can afford her, do what I did and start out with one of her smaller courses. I started out with Authentically You and found that I was profoundly impacted by that 10-day experience.
After that I knew Paige was going to be my coach.
“I am so thankful [Paige] encouraged me to believe in myself enough to take the six month journey with her.”
The summer I turned 13, I decided it was time to answer the call from the back for Seventeen magazine, promising me total transformation, along with the perfect body – one of my early queues from diet culture letting me know that my value should go hand-in-hand with my physical appearance. So I sent off $20 of hard-earned babysitting money, now convinced that changing my body would resolve my ongoing negative self-image.
I eagerly awaited what I thought would be my pathway to self-satisfaction to arrive in the mail. Several weeks later, a small purple pamphlet was delivered, addressed to me. Upon close examination in the privacy of my bedroom, I learned that the key to self-confidence was apparently counting calories and adhering to the pamphlet’s strict running regime.
I felt let down that this wasn’t a magical solution the ad promised. Embarrassed that I had spent my money on this, actually hoping it would quickly change my body and self-confidence struggles, I hid the pamphlet in the back of my dresser drawer. The shame and disappointment I felt about myself in that moment, at the hands of diet culture, would serve as foreshadowing for my next 20 years with respect to my relationship with food and my ability to feel my worth in any way other than the size of my body.
After two decades of weight cycling with the same 15 pounds, my sense of self-worth was so deeply tied to the number on the scale, and I was sick of my self-imposed food rules. I then stumbled upon the concept of intuitive eating through the Finally Free Program. After so many years living in a “good” and “bad” – “okay” and “off-limits” food dichotomy, I was out of touch with what foods I really enjoyed eating, what exercises felt good for my body, and the ability to truly relax or have a rest day without guilt setting in. So much of my mental energy was spent wondering if I had made a good food choice and whether I was exercising enough – yet never actually achieving the “ideal” body that I desired based on images and messaging fed to me through nearly all conventional media outlets and so-called “wellness” resources. This left me in a continual state of dissatisfaction with myself.
During my discovery session with Paige, I was immediately comfortable opening up to her. She was so warm, understanding and confident – and it just felt really good to open up and share my struggles with someone who has been through, and overcame, experiences with body image similar to mine. I shared with her my apprehension of making the six month investment, and nothing changing within myself at the end of our time together. Paige was able to talk me through my own self-doubt and inspire confidence within me to get down to work on myself for the next six months.
I knew this six month one-on-one coaching session was not a magic ticket to loving myself – it was going to require work on my part. I put in the time and effort, and Paige was there to guide me along the way. Her biweekly action steps helped me stay accountable to myself and the goals I set for my journey of self-discovery.
Paige helped me identify the areas of my life that needed improvement, yet I was using my struggle with food and body image as an excuse for not facing these other areas. She guided me through improvement in my non-food struggles with practical, easy to apply solutions.
There were a couple of pivotal moments during my coaching where I felt it would be easier to quit – admit failure like I had with so many diets in the past – and just go back to my comfortable, well-known habits associated with weight-cycling. During these moments, Paige was there to talk me through my internal battle and guide me back to the path I was truly after – trusting, and listening to my body’s needs – ultimately bringing me towards self-acceptance, increased self-love and freeing me from the restrict / binge cycle.
Through my work with Paige, I am now on a path of continuous self-discovery. I accomplished the goals I established at the beginning of our time together, and Paige empowered me with the mental know-how to handle new struggles - as they inevitability will arise. Thinking back to the fear I felt at the start of our journey together – that I would put in the time, but nothing about me would change – not only can I see that that was my self-doubt getting in my way, but I also see that Paige believed in my abilities the entire journey.
I am grateful for Paige’s compassion, guidance, and genuine spirit that she shared with me as my coach, and am so thankful she encouraged me to believe in myself enough to take the six month journey with her."
“I’ve grown far beyond what I ever thought possible, and I’m such a
happy and grateful person.”
I’ve been following Paige since she started blogging, and I’ve been watching her build her business and help so many women from all over the world. I honestly wish I had started working with her years ago but I am just deeply grateful that I decided to work with her – even if the decision took me a few years to get to!
Paige is one of the sweetest, kindest, loving, and supporting woman I’ve ever come across. She could relate to so many of the things I told her, and I could be 100% honest with her. I didn’t have to hide who I am, my dreams, my desires or my struggles. No matter what I told her, she supported me. Every talk and email came from a place of love and a deep desire to be there for me. I never felt like she was in a hurry or didn’t have the time for me – no matter how many emails I sent her in between sessions.
In our work together, I’ve grown far beyond what I ever thought possible, and I’m such a happy and grateful person. I’ve moved to a different city, I graduate in a few months, my skin is more beautiful than it has ever been, I am glowing with confidence, I’ve started my own health coaching business, I’ve started teaching yoga, and I’ve learned to set clear boundaries with people.
When I first started working with Paige I emailed her almost every day in between sessions – at the end I emailed her maybe once between sessions. She gave me the tools to ‘deal’ with my struggles. I’ve also learned to appreciate life much more. All my life I’ve had this idea that when I graduate everything will be perfect, when I move to London everything will fall into place, when I meet a guy, if I lived in the States my life would be perfect, if I just lost 10 pounds, if I just got that job etc. However, my life never got better when some of those things happened. My life didn’t magically change. I was still the same person with the same struggles. Today I see how much I already have, and I am so grateful for everything I have. Sure, I still have dreams but I know that my life won’t be perfect when I graduate, move to the States etc.
I no longer diet, binge or restrict my food. I eat what I feel like, and I don’t worry how many calories my food contains. I exercise because I love it, and it makes me feel great. Not to burn off calories. I’ve seen countless of therapists and dieticians but Paige is the only one who have ever truly helped me.
I would recommend Paige to anyone in a heartbeat. If you are considering booking a Discovery Session, just do it. You won’t regret it! I can confidently say that it’ll be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make.
Paige, I am beyond grateful for you and our time together. You are Godsend!
“I feel like my true self again and so capable of facing challenges with confidence.”
After learning about Paige, I immediately felt a sense of hope. I was nervous about our first call, especially since I hadn’t shared these feelings with many people before. But after our first call, I felt as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Paige was so kind and listened to my concerns. It felt as if she understood exactly what I was going through, which meant a lot to me!
It’s crazy looking back now and seeing how much I’ve grown from working with Paige. The worries I had then are so easy to separate from and understand. I know there will always be challenges that I face, but I feel like my true self again and so capable of facing those challenges with confidence. That’s what Paige has helped me rediscover. Confidence. In myself, in my body, in my work, in my talents, in feeding myself with love and intuition, in my relationships. I can’t thank her enough for supporting me through this journey.
Paige also offered so much advice and support as I got engaged and started planning for my wedding. She helped me through so many life changes - graduating professional school, taking licensing exams, moving across the country, and starting a job after a life of school.
Paige is such a beautiful and generous human being. Through all our talks and through the ups and downs, she has become a friend to me. And I’m the quiet, shy, VERY introverted type. She made it easy for me to communicate my feelings and concerns. I felt safe and hopeful during our sessions.
I would one million percent recommend Paige, especially her six-month program, to anyone struggling with self-confidence issues, anxiety in general (food was a big one for me), body image, difficulty with life changes, etc. I came to her first expressing difficulty with food and trusting myself to eat what I needed to. I was in a restrict/binge cycle that was driving me crazy, but yet felt completely out of my control. Not only was she able to help me see how easy it can be, with the right mindset and time, to feel comfortable around food and eat intuitively, she was also able to help me cope with my other anxieties and worries and stressors in my everyday life.
If you feel like you’ve had enough of that self hatred and constant worry and that it’s time to make a change, that you’ve struggled too long and want to feel the freedom you’ve always desired, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask for help. Paige is so awesome in that she structures her program 100% around you, and gives you the freedom to set your own goals and guides you towards them with kindness and encouragement. I thought I could do it alone at first, but I finally understood the value of the help of a mentor, a coach, a friend. And Paige welcomes me for continued sessions whenever I need them!
I’m forever grateful for you, Paige, for everything!
“I have learned to put myself first. I’ve learned what feels good for me. I have learned how to be in tune with myself.”
I was so excited before my first call with Paige. I was drawn to her coaching style and finally felt like something was going to open up doors for me. After that first phone call, in our Discovery Session, I was even more excited to work with Paige. It felt like all of the stars were aligning.
In our work together I have learned to put myself first. I've learned what feels good for me. I have learned how to be in tune with myself. Working out and eating healthy are no longer chores in my life. Today, I can actually say that I find enjoyment in both. I am more confident in myself, my clothes feel and fit better, and I don’t have guilt around the foods that I used to feel badly for eating. I’ve developed a routine that feels good to me and allows me to be my best self. My relationship with my husband has improved in my work with Paige. In improving my mood and my own confidence, I have felt more confident in our marriage. It’s crazy to think about how everything really did get better through my work with Paige; just like I visualized in that first phone call. Every single aspect of my life has benefitted from this work.
The best part about working with Paige is the support, the understanding she has for her clients, and the ways she was able to help you solve what ever problem you're having; whether it's around food or a non-food (life) issue. Paige always supported me in such a realistic and calm way; which in turn, has helped me to feel more calm and zen as I continue to support myself, behind the scenes. Having Paige's support to make the changes I wanted to make was so essential for me; navigating through change on our own is tough!
In our sessions, Paige was always able to relate what I was feeling to herself or someone else - this made me feel less alone. I would recommend Paige to anyone. I've told so many friends about what I am doing in my work with her. Working with Paige get's a 10 out of 10 in my book! The most important thing about working with Paige, and what anyone reading this needs to know is to be totally open and honest with her. You really can be yourself. When you are, you will get to the root of what's going on. If you're not open, honest, and prepared, it will be harder to get to where you want to be. Give this your all - it's up to you to show up!
I am grateful and proud to love myself and have a better relationship with myself today.
“Working with Paige literally changed my life. I have a greater love and appreciation for my body and sense of self.”
Working with Paige for six-months literally changed my life. I have a greater love and appreciation for my body and sense of self. I eat in a more balanced way, and have no more panic and anxiety around "bad foods." Most importantly I approach my health in a holistic way now. Paige helped me realize that "healthy" isn't about dieting and losing weight, it's about balancing out exercise and rest, eating good nutritious foods and indulging sometimes, while tending to every other part of who you are. A happy self is a healthy self. I'm the type of person that works hard and takes and applies direction well. With practical application and the tools Paige gave me, I reached my 30 pound weight loss goal. I will forever be thankful for my time with Paige!
“I am excited for each day when I wake up. I get excited about what my body is hungry for, I enjoy wine nights with my friends, I have more confidence to try new things and meet new people, and most importantly, I now know how to pause and check in with myself to ask my body what she needs.”
My first call with Paige was an instant sigh of relief. She related to everything I was struggling with, whether it be food restriction/diet mentality, being a gal in her 20s, or society's pressure that is put on women. I immediately felt more relaxed after our call because I knew she would be able to help me get back in touch with my body and learn the skills to not be so hard on myself.
In the end, it was never about the food. Paige helped me realize this and guided me into a life of truly nurturing and caring for myself. Our calls not only lead me to multiple "a-ha" epiphanies, but also true self care that I realized I had been denying myself for years.
With Paige's support, I now can say that I treat each day like a Friday. And by this I mean that I am excited for each day when I wake up, as opposed to living a diet type life mon-thurs and only living for the weekends. I get excited about what my body is hungry for, I enjoy wine nights with my friends, I have more confidence to try new things and meet new people, and most importantly, I now know how to pause and check in with myself to ask my body what she needs in any particular moment.
Paige is not only a coach, but a caring, honest and warm individual. She just feels like that girlfriend you need when your spirits are in need of a boost. Thank you, Paige!
“This is the happiest I’ve ever been and I’m at the most natural weight I’ve been at in a while…but it isn’t really about that anymore. It’s about feeling free from the tremendous stress I was carrying on a daily basis about food and my body.”
I still remember our consultation call and the surge of happiness I felt thinking about where I would be in 6 months. As I write this today, I'm still in shock that I achieved all my goals. And it was all because of Paige. Paige doesn't just teach you about intuitive eating, she teaches you about intuitive living. The mindfulness I learned around food is the same mindfulness I've adopted for myself in general. Tuning into my feelings was never something I did. I would constantly stress about good vs. bad foods, use crash diets or juice cleanses before trips, and turn to alcohol to let go of my need for control.
Now I know I can have whatever I want, whenever I want and feel better than ever. Paige encouraged me to start dancing again, to let go of the need to be perfect, and to talk to myself nicely. She doesn't teach you how to never forget to be mindful or never feel self conscious; rather, she teaches you how to deal with those feelings when they come up which is far more sustainable in the long term. I can safely say this is the happiest I've ever been and that I'm at the most natural weight I've been at in a while. I know I've lost weight from working with Paige, but it isn't really about that anymore. It's about feeling free from the tremendous stress I was carrying on a daily basis about food and my body.
If you're even considering reaching out to Paige, I highly encourage you to just do it! You will not meet a more caring and genuine person who practices what she preaches and truly understands the struggle you are going through. Thank you, Paige, for honestly changing my life!
“I can’t begin to explain the burden and weight that has been lifted as I’ve incorporated Paige’s coaching techniques and suggestions into my daily routine.”
Wow, was I right! Health coaching with Paige has been a total game-changer in my life. In a very gentle way, Paige has helped me to see the feelings of guilt that I often associate with food or exercise, and I can't begin to explain the burden and weight that has been lifted as I've incorporated Paige's coaching techniques and suggestions into my daily routine.
I have learned so many small tips in regards to eating and exercise that have made a huge impact. I feel so much lighter and positive. I am so grateful for this experience and am certain I will continue to benefit from health-coaching throughout my life."
“I’m finally happy with myself and there’s absolutely nothing that can explain how good that feels.”
Paige helped me to understand that first and foremost, we need to love ourselves now. She taught me how show compassion towards myself by allowing myself to be imperfect and care for myself through dedicated personal time. As women, we spend so much time caring for others, it’s not instinctive to care for ourselves. I re-learned what truly makes me happy and how to prioritize myself over others. Finally, I learned how to listen to my body. Intuitive eating has given me a completely new perspective on eating & food. Before, eating was forced by time of day or emotions and often resulted in feelings of guilt. Now, I know when I’m hungry or just emotional, which allows me to truly savor my food and enjoy eating again!
Bottom line, Paige is an amazing listener and friend. Every phone call and email is met with true compassion, empathy, and care. One of the best aspects of coaching with Paige is that you never feel like a student or unequal from her. It’s an absolutely amazing feeling to realize that the issues I’ve been having are no different than so many other women - I’m not alone!
Paige’s coaching went so far beyond what I expected. I went into the sessions expecting to only talk about emotional eating and how to be an intuitive eater. But Paige is so insightful and always had the right questions to ask which helped me see the little aspects of my life that needed more attention. Those little aspects led to a greater understanding of myself and the true root of my emotional eating. I’m so grateful for Paige and her passion for helping women like me lead healthier lives! I’m finally happy with myself and there’s absolutely nothing that can explain how good that feels."
“Before my Discovery Session with Paige I thought I would use intuitive eating as another diet.Little did I know working with Paige would change my life forever and there would be no next diet.”
Before my Discovery Session with Paige I thought I would use intuitive eating as another diet. I thought I would try it, lose my college weight, and move on to the next diet when the time came. Little did I know working with Paige would change my life forever and there would be no next diet.
Paige is one of the most kind and compassionate people I have ever met. She has taught me how to listen to myself and trust myself in a way that I never imagined. I went from being afraid to go out and socialize with friends because I would break my diet, to enjoying going out regularly and finally getting my life back!
After my first 6 months with Paige not only did I learn how to eat intuitively, but I learned how to handle it when I don’t. I used to feel so much guilt around food and “cheating on my diet” but diets no longer have that power over me and I was able to free myself of all my crazy rules.
Paige’s style of coaching is what amazes me the most. When I am talking to her and trying to work through something she asks the perfect questions so I can figure out how to solve it on my own. My coaching has now gone way beyond intuitive eating and I honestly do not know where I would be without her.
If you are questioning working with Paige, don’t. I wish I started sooner and am so grateful for everything she has taught me so far. I look forward to each session with Paige and even though I have a lot to learn I have seen such a huge change in myself already and love the person I have become.
“I haven’t binge eaten in so long, I get ready every day and remind myself I’m worth it. I’m worth not letting the number on the scale control my life, or the amount of calories I consume mark my value.”
Now, a year and a half after working with Paige things have changed so much. There is no exaggeration in the fact that Paige has changed my life. I haven't binge eaten in so long, every day I get ready and remind myself I'm worth it. I am worth not letting the number on the scale control my life, or the amount of calories I consume mark my value.
With Paige's help, I not only changed my food habits, but I literally grew and expanded in other areas of my life as well. My time working with Paige is up, and she has left me confident in my abilities to be my own coach!
PS: Paige thank you so much for literally changing my life. You are absolutely amazing!"
“Paige has helped me to be calm and free in all areas of my life. I now focus on primary food for nourishment and I have never felt more full and satisfied.”
My six-month program with Paige completely changed my relationship with food. I learned how to eat nourishing foods and listen to my hunger signals. I have never felt more light and free around food!
We also focused on eating without distractions and letting go of guilt. The program isn’t just about food and losing weight, it’s about learning to feel good in your body. Paige has helped me to be 'calm and free' in all areas of my life. I now focus on primary food for nourishment and have never felt more full and satisfied.
Paige is a wealth of knowledge and support for all of her girls and I can honestly say that working with her is one of the best decisions that I have ever made.
For those of you who have ever felt the tiniest bit of anxiety around food or those that turned to bingeing or calorie counting, I highly recommend working with Paige. She will help you let go of the power that food holds over you and ultimately change your life. At the end of the program, you will no longer be worried about what you are having for lunch tomorrow. Instead, you will have so much more time to do the things that matter to you and bring you joy.
So go ahead and sign up for a Discovery Session with Paige and let her help you change your life like she did mine."
“The bandwidth that has opened up in my brain after offloading these [negative] beliefs has been one of the most freeing experiences of my life. I can think clearer and better than I can ever remember.”
When a friend recommended Paige, I was at a point where many of those beliefs were submerged in my subconscious (which resembled a cockroach den) keeping me dark and stuck more than an enlightened space leading me to a bright future.
Before you read the following and maybe think I must be a complete disaster of a person, you probably would have a hard time seeing me as any different than any other (mostly) high-functioning adult, even as a close friend. This dark dungeon of beliefs was almost completely unknown to me before I talked to Paige and while I was stuck in so many ways, I was like most women you and I know.
A few false beliefs (among many) that I found in our time together:
1. I DO NOT have permission to eat unless I am eating "right" (right being highly subjective and determined by arbitrary rules laid out by the diet I had determined was the best at the moment). Therefore, most eating outside of said diet (90% of the year) must be filled with guilt and shame.
2. If I don't eat everything in front of me, it will be wasted. Also, major FOMO must kick in when walking away from delicious food, even if I am full to the gills. Paige taught me wasted food is when we buy, make and serve more than our bodies need, not when we throw it away because we it will be too soggy as leftovers and we can't bear to eat another bite! Also, isn't poor health because of overeating also a waste? Go into any hospital today and see the chronic problems stemming from overeating in America and then you'll begin to get an idea of true waste. If you get an accurate idea of what your body wants/needs and honor that, then you begin to address the root problem of food waste AND wasted health from chronic overeating.)
3. My body is an enemy and can't be trusted. It's a foe I've been fighting since I was a little girl. "Have to do step aerobics in my basement alone and unprompted as a 9 year old kid" kind of enemy. And unless I keep a steel cage on my body's appetite at least 6-8 weeks a year in my annual 15-20 lb. weight loss diet binge, my body will steer me into a food-induced stoned life. Also, I will forever remain unworthy and unlovable.
This was just to name a few.
Being able to wake up in the morning without the cascade of dread and self-loathing has been beyond price. Paige will help you challenge even your most destructive and dark beliefs regarding food and your body, and she will help you see the senselessness of their waste.
The bandwidth that has opened up in my brain after offloading these beliefs has been one of the most freeing experiences of my life. I can think clearer and better than I can ever remember.
And for those afraid that letting go of dieting will land you in an unhealthy and disgusting body? It turns out my body can be trusted! It turns out the signals it gives me, when honored, keeps me at a great weight. And it also likes a brisk walk and bike ride daily! Who knew?
Paige is worth it. She can't and won't solve all your problems, but she'll shine a light in that cockroach den that will help you unbury your potential and get you unstuck.
Direction, self-compassion and peace around food (and subsequently in all areas of your life) will begin to surface.
“Now, I let my body eat whatever she wants and I kindly ask myself what exercise I feel like that day. I never thought I’d get to this point so quickly but with Paige’s guidance, it has been so much easier than I expected.”
Speaking with Paige was just like reading her blog, only better! She is so kind, insightful and gentle - I never feel judged and I always leave our calls feeling completely energised and understood. Within only a couple of weeks, my obsession with my body was fading. Paige helped me see how harsh I had been on myself and how chasing this perfect body was only setting me up for failure.
Now, I let my body eat whatever she wants and I kindly ask myself what exercise I feel like that day. I never thought I’d get to this point so quickly but with Paige’s guidance, it has been so much easier than I expected. We’ve now moved onto working on other areas of health in my life, be it relationships, money or gratitude. I’ve just signed up for another 6 months with Paige and I can’t wait to keep working on new goals, while ingraining the intuitive eating and exercise habits I’ve developed. I promise, you won’t regret working with Paige."
“I not only totally revolutionized my approach to food, but my approach to my work, my productivity, my finances, my relationships, my home, my happiness, my mornings, my body, and my life.”
My personal growth has been even more amazing. As you know, these nine months were full of so many ups and downs for me. You helped me through the loss of first my father-in-law, and then my beloved dad. Without your guidance, I know I would have spiraled into a dark place of completely neglecting self-care while I grieved. This is what happened to me seven years ago when my mom, my best friend, died. I lived on ice cream and ramen noodles for months and it only deepened my sadness unspeakably. But you showed me how to be gentle and loving with myself while I faced my emotions and truly FELT them, rather than seeking comfort in food. I will forever be grateful that I had your voice in my life, gently reminding me to be good to myself during such a difficult time. Everywhere I look in my life today, I see evidence of how just far I came through our coaching.
I went from weighing myself every single day and being absolutely crushed if the scale wavered even a fraction of an ounce in the “wrong” direction, to only stepping on it sporadically every month or two. I know you recommend not weighing at all, and I’m still working toward that, but I feel really good about the fact I can go so long without even thinking about the scale now, and that it holds no power over me when I do weigh in. I know I have a history of using this as a means of denial and ignoring my body, which is the opposite of what I want! Instead, through my coaching with you, I learned to let the number on the scale be just that: a number. It no longer defines me and it has zero control over my self worth and happiness. If it’s gone up a little bit, I take it with a shrug and look back over how I’ve treated myself lately. Sometimes I know it’s from something as meaningless as having soy sauce the night before, and other times I know it’s because I haven’t been listening to my body. Either way, I take it as a little piece of information that I can use as a tool to treat myself the very best I possibly can.
That said, I did hop on the scale last week and realized I’ve lost ten pounds since working with you. Those ten pounds mean more to me than all of the many, many pounds I gained and lost and gained and lost through every yo-yo diet. Those are ten pounds that I lost effortlessly, patiently, by simply being good to my own body. I don’t have to fear that those pounds will creep back on now that our coaching is over, the way I would have immediately regained them after a diet.
I was trying to think of the best way to summarize how my relationship with food has changed, and I realized coffee is actually a great example. I used to think the ONLY way I enjoyed coffee was with a ton of half and half in it, or better yet those chemically flavored creamers you can get. I would take my biggest mug, fill it with coffee (leaving as much space as I dared), add tons of cream (to the point the coffee was just lukewarm), and then CHUG the whole thing down. My husband would even watch me do this and gently say, “Hey, you don’t have to drink it so fast!”
Back then, I would constantly go on some new diet where I wasn’t allowed coffee any way but black, and I would hate it. Then I would fall off the wagon and way overdo the cream in my coffee again until my next diet. I actually thought at the time I just liked to drink my coffee fast because that’s how I was, but now I realize that the reason I did this was because I was constantly taking cream away from myself, and I was probably scared that I’d start a new diet mid-sip!
But over the course of the last nine months, without even realizing it, that all changed. I gave myself full permission to enjoy real, organic cream in my coffee, as much as I wanted. And I think for the first few months I did that. But a little while ago, my husband pointed out one day, “Hey! You don’t chug your coffee anymore!” And I realized he was right — now I choose the smallest mug because it stays hotter that way, put just enough milk or cream in it that it turns a pretty color but is still piping hot, and savor it.
I also went from using chemical-filled creamers, to organic half and half, to whole milk, to 2% milk or soy milk. Not because I was trying to cut the calories or wean myself off the fat, but because I slowly realized the taste of full cream in coffee is too rich for me most times, and milk is actually a lot lighter and more enjoyable for me now. No amount of dieting could have ever brought me to a point where I genuinely savor and enjoy coffee the way I do now, and though it seems like a little thing, it really means so much.
The truth is your one-on-one program is really “health coaching” in the fullest sense — in the whole life, big picture way that no other program I know of is. I not only totally revolutionized my approach to food, but my approach to my work, my productivity, my finances, my relationships, my home, my happiness, my mornings, my body, and my life. And it all happened in such a steady, sustainable way that I hardly noticed the changes, until a friend points out “Hey, you never body bash yourself anymore!” or asks “HOW are you so glowy? Did you cut out dairy?” and I realize the answer is 100% through my work with you.
I was so worried about our coaching coming to an end…like the magic spell that has allowed me to work through all of this might suddenly wear off. Or like I might just go right back to where I was. Instead, it has been a perfect transition. Like a gentle landing after a long flight, where you barely notice the wheels touch the ground.
“With Paige’s help, I feel balanced in a way I never have before, both in terms of my everyday habits, as well as my emotional and mental wellbeing.”
The best thing about Paige is that she always recognizes that not every solution works for every person - there is no one-size-fits-all-solution. She asks intuitive questions to help you get to where you need to go, guiding and offering unconditional understanding along the way. I never felt judged by her, which allowed me to open up quickly and easily. It was like talking to a sympathetic friend who was there only to support.
I looked forward to our calls every week, then the recaps she sent afterwards. I felt like I had so much permission to explore what worked for me, to change my mind when my assumptions didn't work out, and to keep evolving my expectations for myself. I've grown a lot in the six months I spent with her, and I know this is due to her generosity of spirit and her boundless wisdom.
I definitely recommend Paige to any person who struggles with finding her own balance, whether that is in a specific area of life, or more holistically. After this time spent in Paige's program, I truly feel like I have the skills to move forward in a healthy and sustainable way. And that is really priceless! If you can come into this experience with an open heart, I know Paige will help you find your way too.
“When I began working with Paige, I was at a completely different spot than where I am right now. I will never forget the courage it took to send that first email… I cannot believe how much I have learned over these last six months and I am so appreciative of Paige for walking with me through this journey because without her I would not have been able to do any of it!”
Over the last six months, I have learned a lot with Paige. I learned how to overcome my urge to binge and don’t remember the last time I binged. Paige helped me realize that I often looked to food for comfort and she helped me find other ways to find comfort in my life. I began to journal and solve problems in my life through journaling. I became in tune with my “inner self” and started listening to the natural intuitive hints my body gives me on a daily basis. This means I can tell what food or exercise my body is craving and I can respond accordingly. Before working with Paige, I was in a yo-yo lifestyle where I would have a “good” day or two, and then a “bad” day. Throughout these last six months I have learned how to let go of that black and white thinking and let go of guilt surrounding food choices that I make. I learned how various aspects of my life, like my friends, family, work, or school, can bring me wayyyy more satisfying joy than food can bring me. So, I learned how to put those things first and let food become a secondary part of my life.
I could not have done any of this without Paige’s support. There were some days that when I was getting ready to call Paige, I thought to myself, “I have no idea what we’re going to talk about...I feel so unfocused”, but Paige helped me talk through my feelings and figure out where we could focus our next set of goals. She always knew the questions to ask to help me realize truths in my life about food and the lifestyle I want. Paige lives her life intuitively and it is insanely inspirational to talk to a woman who is so in tune with herself and can help you find that intuition in your life as well.
Paige is extremely joyful and encouraging, which helped me work harder towards my goals because she helped me see the importance of each and every step I took in the last sixth months. I cannot believe how much I have learned over these last six months and I am so appreciative of Paige for walking with me through this journey because without her I would not have been able to do any of it!"
“Paige has the greatest little sayings and words of advice that I now have on post-it notes taped up all over my house. I don’t think anyone should even think twice about working with Paige. Her advice, her support, her listening ear, and her caring heart can’t be found anywhere else!”
Day-to-day I was making trips to fast food restaurants because I felt like I was a terrible cook and I never got any enjoyment out of the food I made or ate. I noticed myself gaining weight, avoiding the gym, and spending each afternoon camped out in front of the tv. I thought the only way to reverse those bad habits was to try all kinds of diets and eBooks and workout plans. I would try one, give up about a week into it, and search for another plan that promised the same results with seemingly less work.
Finally thinking that enough was enough, I reached out to Paige. Over the course of our time together, I discovered that when I slowed down and listened to my body, it was telling me to just remember the simple things - eat well, move my body, and take time to rest. I began to make little changes that totally helped me feel in control. I tried one to two new recipes per week and found that cooking wasn’t so bad after all! I established a routine of grocery shopping at the same store every Sunday and found that it was no longer a dreadful burden! I even started going to the gym because I felt like moving my body (not because I felt I HAD TO) and it totally took the stress and pressure off of working out!
Thinking about my time working with Paige immediately puts a smile on my face. There were definitely a few times before our phone calls when I had a laundry list of negativity, of things that just weren’t going well for me. But every time she asked the question, “So, what’s been going well for you?” I immediately forgot all of the negativity and realized that focusing on the positive was so much more meaningful. Paige has the greatest little sayings and words of advice that I now have on post-it notes taped up all over my house. I don’t think anyone should even think twice about working with Paige. Her advice, her support, her listening ear, and her caring heart can’t be found anywhere else! Thank you, Paige, for everything!

“Paige challenges you in the best way and even when you think you’re done with coaching, her lessons will continue to influence you. I have had so many “a-ha” moments since finishing the six-month program and I contribute that to the things I learned with Paige.”
I have never NOT been obsessed with food, I didn't know what it was like to not think about food constantly and be questioning everything. The thing I love about Paige is that she doesn't tell you what to do but rather helps you question things into figuring them out for yourself to find what's right for you.
Paige challenges you in the best way and even when you think you're done with coaching, her lessons will continue to influence you. I have had so many "a-ha" moments since finishing the six-month program and I contribute that to the things I learned with Paige. She is an amazing human and I was lucky to get to know her over our time together. In our time together, Paige was always positive and present. She always supports her girls no matter what. I love that I can still keep up with her on social media and I feel like I've made a true connection with her."
“The scale has lost its power over me, and I have never felt more confident and truly happy with who I am. I honestly never thought I would be this happy and carefree – and free of the scale! I couldn’t be more thankful!”
As soon as I got started in my coaching sessions with Paige all of my anxiety and fear slowly began to fade away. With Paige's thoughtful and kind guidance, and a listening ear to all of my doubts and fears, I begin to slowly make progress with mindful and intuitive eating. The scale has lost its power over me, and I have never felt more confident and truly happy with who I am. I honestly never thought I would be this happy and carefree - and free of the scale! Paige, you had confidence in me from the very start, even when I doubted myself your reassurance and weekly goals helped me forge my path on this new life :). I couldn't be more thankful!
“Paige has a way of making you feel comfortable, heard, cared for, safe, validated, and cherished, no matter what it is that she’s helping you work through. When I think of the relationship I was fortunate to build with Paige, the first word that comes to mind is *cherish*, the second is *grateful*.”
Through working with Paige, I feel as though I’ve found my appreciation for myself, life, and the little things again. I’m in a much better place now than I was six-months ago. My life isn’t consumed by food and negative thoughts about myself anymore, and I’ve learned to have grace for myself during the tougher days. But, even when I have days where I’m struggling, I’m prepared to work with myself and guide myself using the tools that Paige has armed me with – that in itself is a huge blessing.
Not only did Paige help me to heal my relationship with food, she helped me to heal, or begin to heal, so many other areas of my life. My relationship with my body, my anxiety (this was HUGE for me), my thoughts and beliefs, my habits, relationships, my confidence, my mindset, my coping mechanisms… You name it, Paige has helped me to work through and begin the healing process in nearly every area of my life. I have made so much progress, and feel so incredibly grateful for this part of my journey that I got to spend with Paige. With her help, I’ve been able to embrace and begin to heal myself, and my life. Paige helped me to find joy, peace, confidence and hope again, and that alone is priceless.
Although I’ve admired Paige for years and have been an avid reader of her blog, I wasn’t sure what to expect in a one-on-one setting with her. I knew that she would be professional, focused, and kind, but I didn’t necessarily expect to build a relationship (friendship!) with her. Every session with Paige was like chatting with a supportive bestie, and I cherish the relationship that we cultivated through our sessions, and through her support outside of the sessions. Paige has a way of making you feel comfortable, heard, cared for, safe, validated, and cherished, no matter what it is that she’s helping you work through. When I think of the relationship that I was fortunate to build with Paige, the first word that comes to mind is CHERISH, the second is GRATEFUL. Because I cherish Paige, everything she has helped me with, and the time we have shared. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and I couldn’t be more grateful for Paige, and how she came into my life when I needed her most.
Honestly, I would recommend Paige’s coaching program to anyone and everyone. While I could list out all the different ways that Paige can help you, the list wouldn’t end, because I truly believe that she can be a support for you no matter what your struggles are. Paige’s guidance is invaluable, and you owe it to yourself to give yourself the gift of working with her.
“I am happy with myself. I am happy with my relationships. I am happy with my body. I am happy with my priorities. I am happy. I have learned so much from Paige and would recommend her to every. single. person…”
I began this program uncomfortable, disorganized, guilty, and depressed with my relationship with food, my boyfriend, family, and exercise. I thought of exercise as a necessary evil. I viewed my relationship as a place of resentment and guilt. I was never truly happy at the end of the day with my choices on food and exercise.
As soon as I started with Paige in her six-month Program, I realized that I could make huge strides and progress by allowing myself to make daily, weekly, and monthly goals. I learned to appreciate myself more. I learned to put myself and my needs first because *if I am unhappy, I am not able to be my best self for the people around me.*
I learned that communication is easier than I made it out to be. I found comfort in knowing that the pressure to eat right is unnecessary. I found ways to organized my life by simply creating a new routine that fits my hectic schedule. I created a plan on how to grocery shop and found joy in discovering what foods I could make each week.
I am so unbelievably grateful for Paige and for how far I've come during these past six-months. I have discovered a part of myself that I was previously completely unaware of and have feel emotional thinking about the amount of growth I've experienced. I am happy with myself. I am happy with my relationships. I am happy with my body. I am happy with the way I organize. I am happy with my priorities. I am happy. I have learned so much from Paige and I would recommend her six-month Program to every single person because she is absolutely amazing!"
“I no longer fear ‘bad foods’. I listen to and honor my body, understanding when and how much to feed her. I have embraced my body as it is, and love the woman I am today.”
I finally came to the realization that my relationship with food had reached an all time unhealthy low. My life was controlled by it. Fortunately, my daughter had been reading up about intuitive eating on Paige's blog and shared it with me. I made the call to Paige and after one phone conversation, I knew she would be able to help me as long as I was willing to face and walk through my fears together with her.
I can not express enough my gratitude to Paige. I put my COMPLETE trust in her and the process (which was scary I won't lie) and my life has been transformed. Today I no longer fear "bad foods" vs. "good foods." I listen to and honor my body, understanding when and how much to feed her. I have embraced my body as it is, and love the woman I am today. This freedom from food bondage has empowered all aspect of my life not just body image. What a true blessing Paige has been. Her knowledge as well as her own life experience on the topic make her the ideal coach and I recommend her to anyone struggling with body image or food disorders.
“Paige has shown me that my life is so much more than the calories I eat in a day or the size of my clothes…food is not the enemy, my worth is not determined by my size, and healthy is still achievable without being a slave to calorie counting.”
Looking back, I can't believe how much can change in six-months. Paige has shown me that my life is so much more than the calories I eat in a day or the size of my clothes. She has helped to see that food is not the enemy, that my worth is not determined by my size, and that healthy is still achievable without being a slave to calorie counting.
Paige is so supportive, honest, and provides actionable steps to not only set you free from food fear, but create a life you truly want to live. The best part is, Paige has taught me to love and honor my body, mind and spirit in a way that I know is a permanent way of life. The energy I spent obsessing and researching for a new diet or program is finally being spend having fun, building relationships, and living a life that I am proud to live.
I recommend Paige's coaching to any girl who wants to finally be satisfied with her body and let go of shame around food. Your focus and energy can be used for so much more.
“This is about so much more than just food – it’s about embracing who I really am, finding my joy, and being the best I can be.”
Paige has seen me through the birth of my first child - how cool is that? She was there every step of the way to challenge and support me. Her calls and conversations are a place where I feel safe to be vulnerable and be myself and ask for help. Her support has enabled me to reach out to my husband, my friends, and my support network as I entered motherhood. Spending less time obsessing about food helps me be present with my daughter - a true gift.
I know that I have a long way to go, but working with Paige has helped me own where I’m at, be honest with myself, and commit to putting in the work to restore an intuitive relationship with food. Her simultaneous professionalism, knowledge, personal experience, compassion, kindness, and humor are a unique mix, and I would recommend her coaching program to anyone who wants to enact positive change around food in their lives.
For me, this is so much more about food - it’s about embracing who I really am, finding my joy, and being the best I can be. Paige is helping me do that which is a powerful thing. I truly can’t recommend her services enough - I only wish I’d reached out sooner.
“Since working with Paige I have lost 50 pounds, found balance in all areas of my life and feel like me again!”

“I feel at peace and at ease with food. Paige helped me figure out what my barriers were to taking better care of myself and having a positive relationship with food.”
I really enjoyed working with Paige. I began to look forward to our meetings like I was talking with an old friend. Paige is warm and understanding and gentle. I felt like I could tell her anything and she’d never judge me. Paige offered a listening ear unlike I’ve ever experienced. Paige listened attentively and patiently and asked insightful questions to help guide me. She spoke from a place of love and peace, and helped me to feel at ease.
At times my work with Paige extended beyond my relationship with food. She helped me identify and make simple changes in my life that had a big impact on how smoothly my days go and that help reduce stress. I’ve often thought how lucky Paige’s family and friends are to have her kind, loving, and open influence in their lives.”
“I never thought I would live another day without counting all the calories in everything I ate and feeling guilty constantly, but now I can say for the first time in years I feel normal.”
For about 2 years I was having frequent binging episodes that left me feeling guilty, worthless and like a complete failure. I tried to diet helplessly every week but always ending up heavier and heavier, constantly stuck in a cycle of bingeing and starving. I would vow to start over tomorrow and track every calorie and do an hour of cardio every night this week to work off the large pizza, bag of popcorn, 3 bagels, pint of ice cream and 10 cookies I had eaten. (And yes, that is an accurate example of what I would consume in ONE sitting!) I would eat until my stomach was about to burst and then I would cry myself to sleep.
I became depressed and disconnected with everyone in my life including myself. I didn't take the time to do things I enjoyed anymore because I was too embarrassed about all the weight I had gained and didn't want people to see that I had gotten "fat." Going out to dinner with friends and family over gave me anxiety wondering what could I eat that wouldn't make me fat or trigger me to binge out like crazy for the whole next week.
Working with Paige I finally felt like someone understood me, I wasn't crazy to feel this way or experience these struggles! Seeing I wasn't alone was the first step in learning to be kind to myself instead of punishing myself with negative self talk. I never thought I would live another day without counting all the calories in everything I ate and feeling guilty constantly, but now I can say for the first time in years I feel "normal." I can eat whatever I want and feel satisfied and have slowing been finding a comfortable body weight. Food is just food, not labeled good or bad, nothing is off-limits, and I have control over my own thoughts and actions instead of allowing food to have a power over me.
Although I have lost about 20lbs since I began with Paige, It's not all about how much I weigh anymore, I am not my "goal weight" that I obsessed over for years, but I am feeling confident and happy with myself and my life every day. Of course I still have those bad days or moments when I doubt myself, but now I know how to turn off the negative self talk and find ways to change my outlook on things. I am so blessed and thankful that Paige came into my life and helped me see clearly again and climb my way out of that dark hole I was in."
“Paige truly changed the way that I look at myself… I’m truly the happiest in my day to day life than I’ve ever been.”
Since working with Paige, I have more self esteem and confidence, and gave a lot more attention to taking care of myself. Before working with Paige, I didn't understand what it meant to take care of myself - the first time she asked me that question, I didn't have anything to say... Now, my favorite time of the day to myself is the morning!! I find myself getting excited about going to bed early, because it means I will be able to wake up earlier... Coming from someone who used to flash get ready for work in 25 minutes, I now enjoy over a full hour - I grind my coffee, make a french press with my homemade almond milk, read my morning book, make my bed, straighten my room and then handle any little to-dos around the house - all before starting for work. My work outfits are more thoughtful and my self presence is more manicured - not to mention how much clearer my headspace is when I get to work. Now, I know I take care of myself, and I do it in a way that makes every one of my days enjoyable from the beginning.
Since working with Paige, I got a promotion and substantial raise at work, have found that my masters class work is actually my sacred space, and give my mornings to myself. Paige truly changed the way that I look at myself and every day in the most meaningful and genuine way - it was more than I ever imagined. I'm truly the happiest in my day to day life than I've ever been. It's amazing to think that talking to someone on the phone and emailing can change a person that much... But it truly can!"
“I was able to get back in touch with so many things in life that I love…”
When I first started Paige's six-month program I felt pretty out of control with food, was eating emotionally, and felt unsure of how to listen to my body. All I knew in the past was dieting, and for the first time I wanted to learn to honor my own hunger and cravings. I wanted to feel peace in my relationship with food. In fact, on the first worksheet I ever filled out for Paige I wrote and colored in the word "PEACE" in big bold letters. This feeling of peace was so important to me.
Throughout the six-month program I was able to get back in touch with so many things in life that I love: gardening, spending time with God, journaling, talking with my husband at the dinner table, and reading. I also was able to give up emotional eating, as I learned to experience and feel my emotions directly. Turns out, it's not so bad to just feel your real feelings! I also learned how to express my feelings when I was in need of being listened to.
Ultimately, Paige helped me become a better version of myself. I would recommend Paige to anyone who wants an unbiased person to work through their struggles with. You definitely don't have to go through this on your own!"
“I am the happiest and most balanced I have ever been. My life is finally feeling exactly how I wanted it to, I have never felt this good in my body!”
With that being said, I was a reader of Paige's blog for over a year before I finally reached out to her. My only hesitation was that I was worried by doing health coaching I was trying yet another diet trend, or another thing to try and stay healthy and thin. But health coaching is the COMPLETE opposite of everything I was previous doing. After six months with Paige I am the happiest and most balanced I have ever been. My life is finally feeling exactly how I wanted it to, I have never felt this good in my body! Paige taught me how to be so kind to myself, which completly shifts the way I do things. I exericse now not to burn calories but instead because it feels good to move, I eat food that are fresh and full of flavor becuase they make me feel good. Approaching everything in my life from a place of kindness and not guilt is the most amazing thing that Paige has taught me. I am so incredibily grateful for her and all that she has done for me!"
“I have not had a binge for over three months, and in fact, have lost nearly 15 pounds while working with Paige.”
I am thrilled to say that I have absolutely met my goal. I have not had a binge for over three months, and in fact, have lost nearly 15 pounds while working with Paige. Ironically enough, most of my conversations with Paige have centered on aspects of my life completely unrelated (or so I initially thought!) to food. We talked about my recent career change (I left a very exhausting and stressful corporate job and had started my own business). We talked about my guilt around taking breaks and “turning off” at the end of the night. And then sometimes we talked about food, especially my irrational fear of nachos, burgers and pasta. What I have realized over the past six months was that my obsession with dieting and food stemmed from much deeper issues—my inability to truly relax, my fear around letting go, and mostly my unwillingness to take care of myself when I was exhausted and needed it the most.
I have signed on to continue for another six-month session with Paige, first, because I hope to continue my own personal growth, but second, because my talks with Paige are a reset for me during a stressful week. I look forward to that time and leave our conversations feeling relaxed and refreshed and ready to hit the rest of the day.
I recommend Paige ten times over! You will not be disappointed!"
“I have come to peace with myself and my body. I have learned to listen to her and know what to do to serve her in any moment. I can now relax as I move forward in my journey. I feel confident, knowing that I love myself and want the best for my body.”
Throughout these past six-months, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Paige in her Total Transformation Program. I have done my fair share of programs before. Prior to working with Paige, I tried every program/diet I could get my hands on. I remember going on my first diet, which required me to drink liquids all day long, when I was between 12-13 years old. I even still have a diary from being seven years old where I wrote about needing to do a certain number of sit-ups each day. Even at this early age, I felt disgusted with myself and felt badly when I’d eat something “wrong.”
Since this time, I really struggled. I worked on myself for 15 years and never gotten where I wanted to. I am now 22 years old, and am the most satisfied and at peace with myself than I ever have been.
Seeing as I’ve tried every diet/program out there, before my consultation I was so worried that this coaching program would be just like everything else. And even so, something in me told me I NEEDED to reach out. After mine and Paige’s first call I was certain that I had made the best decision I could’ve made for myself. It was a challenging six-months of transformation, and it was all worth it.
A few months ago, I randomly realized that I had lost the desire to go on other diet programs. One of the hardest things for me to let go of was jumping on these programs where I was told I would lose weight. They seem so promising from the outside… Today I can say with confidence that I will not go on another diet program. Coming from me, this is amazing!
I never thought I would be able to be at peace with my body as it is. I’ve always wanted to change my body, and have always been mean to myself. Looking back at how I used to think of myself makes me cry because I now know that I did not deserve it, at all!
I have learned so much in my time with Paige… Not just about ditching diets and listening to my body, but with balancing EVERYTHING in life: relationships, budgeting, organizing, and so much more. Before, I never though I would come to this place without being at “my dream weight.” For the longest time, I thought I wouldn’t be happy unless I completely changed how I look.
I can also tell you now today that I haven’t had a panic attack about my body in MONTHS. Before working with Paige I would get these attacks weekly, usually while I was getting dressed. The attacks would end with me hyperventilating, crying and laying down choosing not go wherever I was planning to go.
Through this Program, I have come to peace with myself and my body. I have learned to listen to her and know what to do to serve her in any moment. These past six-months have brought me to a place where I can now relax as I move forward in my journey. I feel confident, knowing that I love myself and want the best for my body.
I have learned so much in my time with Paige… Not just about ditching diets and listening to my body, but with EVERYTHING in life: relationships, budgeting, organizing, and so much more. I have also recently discovered spirituality. As we bring our coaching to an end, this is an area that I am so excited to dive deeper into. Connecting with myself on a deeper level has helped me at work, in my relationship with my fiancee, and in my everyday life.
To wrap up, I want to share that when I first started working with Paige I found myself researching how much weight I would lose from eating intuitively. Ha, anyone else think this way?! When I realized what it meant to eat intuitively, I panicked and got scared. I’m sure some of you are feeling the same way. Like, I was going to let myself eat whatever I wanted with no rules and learn to listen to MYSELF? It totally freaked me out. It took me a while to let that fear go, but thankfully, each week it disappeared more and more.
Today, I can proudly share that knowing that I can eat what I am feeling like and not worry about my weight is the greatest thing I could’ve wished for. It’s so freeing!
I am definitely going to miss my sessions with Paige. The gratitude I feel for her Is invaluable and I will be forever thankful for her. Our calls were the highlight of my week, so it will be tough not having them.
My encouragement to whoever is reading this is: If I can get to this point, you can, too. If you relate to what I’ve written, you will never regret making the decision to have Paige as your coach."

“And the biggest of all was learning that it is okay to be comfortable with myself…”
I've been following Paige's blog since she started it and knew her from our old church Reality in Ventura, CA. I decided to reach out to her for health coaching. This was a big step because I couldn't really afford it financially. But by the grace of God I was able to make it work.
As Paige and I worked together we figured out what makes me happy and not happy, being conscious with my food, learning to incorporate movement/working out in my life and limited space (this included finding what makes me happy and comfortable during a workout), I learned I like quick but fruitful workouts so that I could enjoy the rest of my evenings to relax. I also learned that what makes me happy is doing things that make me feel more independent since I am living with my parents again. And the biggest of all was learning that it is okay to be comfortable with myself and being comfortable buying adult sized clothing because wearing comfortable clothes feels good, even if they are a little larger.
All in all I have lost about 10 pounds while working with Paige and have learned to be comfortable with where I am weight wise. Learning that it is a continual process of teaching yourself it is okay to be you, however big or small you are and it's okay to enjoy food. Do what makes you feel happy and comfortable."
“My success is my own, but I’ve achieved so much partly because Paige helped me empower myself. She helped me realize that I do have the power to live my best life and more importantly that I deserve it.”
I was intimidated by the program, wondering if it was going to be too much to handle, until I had my first talk over the phone with Paige. That’s what it was- a talk. She asked me questions and got to know me, told me about her program, but it didn’t feel like I was being interviewed. It was a conversation that felt natural and gave me so much hope for the future. Let me tell you, Paige is exactly who she appears to be on her blog. Our first time talking I could sense that she genuinely loves what she does, cares about her clients, and believes in all of us whole-heartedly. I’m able to tell her my vulnerabilities, about the habits I want to change, my insecurities- and never once have I felt judged. Before I signed up I thought it would be embarrassing to tell Paige my weight, my poor eating habits, and my lack of exercise. Even though it went against everything I’d been reading about in her blog- I was afraid that my weight would be a problem. Never once has Paige asked about my weight or brought up weight loss. Any time weight comes up, and it rarely does, it’s always been me who has brought it up. Just in our last session I brought up my insecurities about my weight and Paige responded in an incredible way. She listened to my feelings, and then she asked what I could do that would make me feel good. This is one of the many reasons I’m grateful for Paige. Most diets and health plans would focus on me losing weight. That’s not the case with Paige. Our focus is on what I can do that will make me feel happy and healthy. I know these changes will result in weight loss, but it’s not the focus at all. It is such an incredibly freeing mindset and is one of the biggest impacts Paige has had on me.
Going back to when I started with Paige, I was happily surprised at how truly individualized the program is. Paige has never pressed goals on me, and instead asks what makes me feel happy and healthy. She listens, asks what my goals are, and often suggests goals that fit just what I’m looking for. The goals are small but incredibly powerful. I’ve had goals that cover every area of my life. I’ve learned that walks outside feed my need to move & be in the sun; I’ve learned that I find meal planning fun & helps my meals be more satisfying to both my body and my taste buds; I found that making an outline prevented so many feelings of stress when writing papers; I found that appreciating the present helps me enjoy vacations more; I learned that tidying up for 10 minutes before bed makes me feel more prepared for the next work day; the list goes on.
Intuitive eating & living is amazing and has truly helped me live my best life, but it wouldn’t be the same without Paige. Writing about my time in the program, I keep coming back to Paige’s character. She is what makes this program so special. She’s supported me through my last semester of grad school, graduating, suddenly losing a loved one, and finding my dream job. My success is my own, but I’ve achieved so much partly because Paige helped me empower myself. She helped me realize that I do have the power to live my best life and more importantly that I deserve it. When it comes down to it, that’s the most important and powerful thing I could have learned from working with Paige. I’ve chosen to continue working with her for another six months and I can’t wait to see what I accomplish.
“I feel so satisfied from my food that I don’t even think about it after I eat. Eating allows me to move on with my day and do things I enjoy with people I love. It allows me to laugh and smile and then a few hours later remember it’s time to eat again because my tummy is growling.”
I've worked with Paige for four six-month programs. This was the best thing I have EVER done and I am so grateful that I made this investment. I wouldn't trade my happiness for the world. I started to get the hang of things after the first six months, but I knew I wanted to grow more. I wanted to see just how far I could truly grow and push myself. Paige talked to me about possibly wanting to continue for another round and I jumped on that opportunity. I really started to know myself without even consciously trying during this program. Things started to become habits and the person I was began to grow into someone I didn't know I had inside me. Now, working through my 3rd six month program I am realizing I am really solidifying this individual who I so longed to be. I am in a healthy relationship finally and Paige gave me the confidence to find myself which led to ending a 5 year serious relationship that I originally thought I would be in forever. This was something that I knew deep down in my heart needed to happen, but so afraid of. Finally getting through it allowed my growth to skyrocket. The importance of the people in your life is something that I have learned so much about.
Now to discuss my body. I now have a body that I feel good about. I now get excited to wear my new clothes or go shopping. Even better is fitting into some of my old favorite clothes that (thank God) I never gave away. I listen to what I want and I eat when I am hungry. I finally learned really what hunger is and how many different signals your body can give. Not all of them mean hunger as I was preciously unaware of. I feel so satisfied from my food that I don't even think about it after I eat. Eating allows me to move on with my day and do things I enjoy with people I love. It allows me to laugh and smile and then a few hours later remember it's time to eat again because my tummy is growling. I was able to leave an extremely stressful job working for a family friend which made it difficult to leave. I gracefully did so and even got a job I like and brings other aspects into my life such as a new work family. It allows me to interact with new people and be in an uplifting environment where I can learn new skills.
One thing I am most grateful for is the example I get to be to my younger sisters. Now that I am my best self, I can show them how to be happy in their own skin. They are growing up in a society that already at the ripe age of 10 talks about how they hate their bodies. I constantly want them to be reminded that you can beautiful at any size and I want those comments to never affect them. Being this example is so fulfilling to me and finding this role in someone's life can make such a difference. My entire family can see my happiness and have even made changes themselves. They probably are shocked that someone who was struggling so hard can come out so strong in that amount of time. But this gave them faith for themselves. This made for a much happier family. With food not being on my mind, I am able to focus on so many other activities that I love to do and work harder at school and work.
For anyone who is struggling in this area, I started Health Coaching because I was so motivated to change. I knew that this life wasn't suppose to be lived by anyone. Life should be free, happy, and joyful. Not to say times won't be tough, but if you're lacking that constant joy I promise it's not too far gone. If I can get it back, trust me you can too. You have nothing to lose and you will grow no matter what. I can't be more grateful for where Health Coaching has taken me and I hope everyone who is reading this also finds their inner happiness and best self."
“…no matter how bad you think your struggle with food is, you are not alone.”
Paige always went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed to be successful and confront issues that held me back. She is truly one of the most compassionate people I've met. Dealing with eating issues can be so incredibly challenging, and at times very isolating. One of my biggest "take-aways" from working with her, is that no matter how bad you think your struggle with food is, you are not alone. Her honesty in sharing her past really helped me see that it is possible for people who struggle with eating to have a healthy relationship with food.
If you are someone that needs some support, I would highly recommend you reach out to Paige!"
“I am so much more content! I enjoy going out, I enjoy trying new things, I no longer am a part of the vicious cycle I was on of binging/restricting. Working with Paige was one of the best decisions I have ever made.”
“I feel SO much better about myself and my choices since starting this journey and I now have the tools I need to continue.”
Paige is such a wonderful person. I don’t know many people that are as non-judgmental and sincere as she is. There was never any harshness, anger or judgment of any kind – only kindness, concern, and such a sense of gentleness and grace. She was always so calm and made you feel the same way after talking with her. I truly believe that she will go far and is such a good example for others. She has such a big heart and I’m so proud to call her a friend!"
“I’ve learned how important it is to take care of myself and listen to my body… even when it’s way easier to ignore it.”
I can easily say that after working with her for 6 months I am in a MUCH better place. Things are still crazy, but that's okay! I've learned how important it is to take care of myself and listen to my body...even when it's way easier to ignore it. Paige introduced me to intuitive eating and helped guide me through challenging situations where I was more likely to forget to listen to my body.
After working with Paige, I feel so much more calm and less guilt around food. I have learned ways to avoid the self-destructing "diet" mentality around food. I have a better sleep schedule and get up earlier every morning to set aside "me-time." I feel more comfortable in my skin and my body has found a much more natural weight where I feel good. I have become more regular with my workouts and added a strengthening routine. I learned to budget and take more control of my finances. The list goes on.
I went above and beyond achieving the goals I had set for myself that seemed so daunting when I began the program. I had no idea how much I could achieve in 6 months and I couldn't have done it without Paige's amazing support, understanding, and guidance. THANK YOU PAIGE!!!"
“I seriously can’t thank you enough Paige! I can now set goals and have no doubt that I can make them happen because of all the tools I’ve learned from you. I have recommended Paige to everyone with ears!”
Working with you has changed my quality of life in the best way possible. I've learned the importance to being kind to myself and knowing that I should strive for consistency and NOT perfection. I seriously can't thank you enough Paige! I can now set goals and have no doubt that I can make them happen because of all the tools I've learned from you. I've recommended you to everyone with ears and I hope they follow through!"
“I really appreciated that Paige was never judgemental, never surprised by what I said, and had always the perfect words to make things right.”
“During the six months in coaching with Paige I have been able to develop a better relationship with my body and to be more kind to myself.”
During the six months in coaching with you I have been able to develop a better relationship with my body and to be more kind to myself. I have been able to start and keep healthy routines, among others eating more kind foods and working out in a more sustainable way. Having a mindset that is more balanced than the one of a dieters. To keep this mindset and my new body image is a hard work that I will keep working on, but you and I together have laid a good foundation and you have given me great tools to work with. This will make it possible for me to keep it for the rest of my life!
Thank you!"

“Having Paige as my coach has given me faith in all areas of my life because before her, I thought things would never change.”
Paige is the one who saved me from this depressing feeling and time in my life. She has taught me to be calm and think logically when making decisions about food. She has taught me to not forget about the other important aspects in my life that need attention too like friends, family, and doing things I enjoy. She has taught me not to be so hard on myself and to grow from my experiences. She is always there with great advice and is understanding and is NEVER judgmental. I can talk to her about so many personal things and she is so warm and nurturing about them. She taught me to trust my body! Having Paige as my coach has given me faith in all areas of my life because before her, I thought things would never change. I wanted to love myself and I was done letting food control my life. I wanted to feel confident in wearing my outfits. I didn't want to go out because I felt like I would have to pack my own food. I was afraid of having no control over what I eat and would miss out on social things because of this. I would spend countless hours stressing over how I was ever going to lose weight and feel good in clothes again. All I wanted to wear was sweats and big T-shirts in order to hide my body that I was embarrassed of. Paige guided me through these times and showed me that being healthy can be an exciting and confident-boosting experience rather than a depressing, uphill battle. Paige taught me to be able to hear and feel my hunger again after so many years of pushing it away. She taught me that there are no forbidden foods and that you can eat anywhere and be healthy.
Paige is a generous and amazing woman who I would recommend to anyone who is feeling in a low place about their body image, food, exercising, or finding a balance in life. She will not let you down and she is the best support system there is out there. She is a friend who is so knowledgable and if you are on the edge of who to work or if to work with a coach, you should do it! She is full of love and has so much experience. You can truly trust her on this journey. You will be so thankful just as I am and your life with be significantly different because of it."
“In these last six month with Paige, I’ve made peace with my body in a way that I never thought I would.”
My life has changed so much in the last 6 months and I can honestly say that I have finally found my happy place! Paige has taught me to trust my body, that the most radiant kind of beauty doesn’t come from skinny thighs but rather from inner peace and a comfort in your own skin, and most importantly that it is absolutely ok to enjoy food! In these last six month with Paige, I’ve made peace with my body in a way that I never thought I would. In addition to all of that, I’ve also learned to become better at budgeting, find balance in all areas of my life, and to focus on being “healthy” versus “skinny”.
I looked forward to every single session I had with Paige and always walked away from our sessions feeling calm, inspired and grounded. Starting out, I was nervous that it would be hard to open up to her right away, but she made it soooo easy with her encouragement, compassion and ability to relate. I loved setting goals every week and was amazed at how I was able to hit every single one of those goals by the end! I loved health coaching so much in fact, that I'm even looking into becoming a health coach myself! If there is one piece of advice I can give to anyone reading this testimony it’s to work with Paige! It was worth every penny and I’m so glad that I made the choice to do this for myself :)"
“I would have laughed if you told me I would be working out four times a week (and craving it on my off days), cooking healthy meals for myself at home, and letting my body guide me in choosing when and what to eat.”
I found Paige through reading her blog in a time where my body had become something I wasn’t used to. I was uncomfortable, about 20 pounds heavier than normal (due to a pelvis break and said toxic relationship) and I hated looking at pictures of myself. I tried not eating carbs. I tried drinking my weight in water. Nothing worked and I would become so frustrated (and hungry) that I would binge at night, eating anything I could get my hands on. That behavior lead to weight gain and a feeling of intense helplessness. After reading and re-reading her story, I thought, why not reach out for a free consultation. I ended up staying with Paige for a full year, getting back to my normal weight, and most importantly finding joy in healthy eating and exercise.
I’ve never been someone who likes to go for a run or make a delicious kale salad. I would have laughed if you told me I would be working out four times a week (and craving it on my off days), cooking healthy meals for myself at home, and letting my body guide me in choosing when and what to eat. But that’s where I am right now and that’s where I feel the best. Am I at the weight I was in high school (almost seven years ago)? No. Am I more energetic, happier, and more confident than I have been in a long time? Absolutely.
Paige taught me how to listen to what my body tells me it needs. She taught me the best foods to eat, and helped me trick myself into getting to the gym regularly. She showed me how to taste and enjoy my food, even meditate on it, and when to indulge when my body really needed it. She gave me an outlet to voice not only health related but personal and emotional concerns. People with disordered eating patterns (like myself) turn to food when we are upset, stressed, even happy. I learned to separate my emotions from my food. Am I perfect at it? No. I still come home and eat three slices of pizza every once in a while. But it’s a treat not a norm now and I fully enjoy it when I decide to indulge.
The best gift Paige gave me besides the knowledge she imparted on me was a community of women who struggle with the same things that I do. Through this community I met my amazing accountability partner. We have worked with each other on cutting out emotional binging for months, and despite living halfway across the country we’ve even met in person and visited Paige together! Having that continued support has been instrumental in the progress and life changes that I have made. That friendship will last forever.
There are so many people who can benefit from working with Paige. As one of the most honest, selfless and beautiful women I have come to meet, she is truly easy to work with and always makes you feel lifted and confident. My journey started with her guidance, and it will continue with my own but I will always have the things she taught me."
“I am free from unnecessary stress. I have so much more time to be happy and do other things with my free time than worry about food and how I look.”
I have been a follower of Healthy Hits the Spot blog for years, and I always found Paige to be such an amazing inspiration. Once I noticed Paige was taking clients I was immediately interested, but also really nervous. I didn’t want to be judged, and I wasn’t entirely sure that I was comfortable talking to someone about my struggles. Somehow I got up the courage to call Paige for the first time to have our Consultation and my nerves went away very quickly. Paige is such a kind hearted person who really made me feel cared for and never judged for the way I felt.
My main goals before starting her program were to learn to love myself and to have a healthy relationship with food. Paige was able to give me the right tools and advice so that I could learn how to eat intuitively and never have to worry about “good” or “bad” foods. Thinking about calories and worrying about every single thing I put in my mouth in the past made me miserable. I am beyond ecstatic to be free from all of that unnecessary stress. I have so much more time to be happy and do other things with my free time than worry about food and how I look.
It was such a pleasure to work with such a beautiful person inside and out. I highly recommend working with Paige to anyone who wants to ditch their bad relationship with food and learn to be healthy and happy!"
“I cannot thank Paige enough for all she has helped me with and I know that in the years to come I will use all the information she helped me with daily. I’ve learned so much about myself.”
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been that I am way more aware of myself and my feelings and the things I want to work on and/or change about myself so that I am happier.
The most significant overall change I have noticed has been how one issue I had impacts many aspects of my life. Being aware of it has changed so many parts of my life that I had no idea were even connected. It is very hard to pick the most significant change because there has been so much.
I would describe Paige as a wonderful health coach who is so easy to talk to and connect with. She is such a positive, intuitive person who clearly has a passion for helping others. I would recommend Paige to anyone who wants to work on themselves. Not just having to do with food and/or dieting. She is such a positive person that really gets it!
I cannot thank Paige enough for all she has helped me with and I know that in the years to come I will use all the information she helped me with daily. I've learned so much about myself."
“Now when other women talk about how they “should” or “shouldn’t” eat something, I can separate myself from that rather than think that I should do the same. I know what I need to do to feel good in my own body!”
Paige was able to help me work toward these goals by: giving me information and tools to help me learn more about my body, food, nutrition, exercise and intuitive eating. Paige helped me set small goals every 2 weeks that helped me make small changes overtime rather than feel the need to change everything all at once! Paige was so encouraging each time we talked on the phone and was always available through email and text. When I felt like I hadn’t done as much as I’d hoped in our time together, Paige sent me an entire list of the small changes I had made over our 6 month period and that was so encouraging!
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been: now that I am more aware of my body, eating more intuitively, eating foods that fill me up for longer, I don’t snack as much, I feel fuller longer and feel more satisfied with my food choices through out the day.
The most significant overall change I have noticed has been: I feel less guilty about foods that I’ve always thought were “bad!” I really enjoy my chocolate and wine with my husband at night! 😉 Guilt associated with food has plagued me for a long time. When other women talk about how they “should” or “shouldn’t” eat something, I can now separate myself from that rather than think that I should do the same. I know what I need to do to feel good in my own body! On the days that I don’t feel that great about my body or about what I have chosen to eat, I am now able to remind myself of the little small changes I can make to get back to feeling good rather than letting the guilt take over.
I would describe Paige as: very organized, very encouraging, very good at her job! Paige loves what she does and you can tell. Even when I was nervous to begin or felt discouraged along the way, Paige made me feel so normal. It’s ok to have little setbacks but she always reminded me of the things I had accomplished. Paige is so sweet and kind and so very helpful! We even talked about my kids and their sleep habits and little tricks she thought might be helpful. It was so sweet to feel like she really cared about the entirety of my life, not just my food and exercise! Paige is very personable and willing to talk about her own experiences as well!
I would recommend Paige to anyone who needs to get to the heart of their food issues, anyone who needs a bit of accountability and encouragement along the way."
“I trust myself to make the right food choices, while continuing to eat intuitively. I trust myself to get up in the morning and exercise, not because anybody is telling me to, but because of how great it feels.”
For anyone with any type of limitation, this is totally possible! I had knee surgery at the beginning of starting coaching, which was scheduled to be something very minor, and the healing time was supposed to be very quick (3-4 weeks). It ended up being much more significant than expected, and my healing time is still going on. It was a difficult process for me both physically, and emotionally. Paige was absolutely wonderful, and gave me so many suggestions to work through it. Including listening to when my body said “no,” (even though my heart said “yes”).
The biggest thing that I have noticed throughout my coaching experience has been realizing and recognizing that I trust myself. I trust myself to make the right food choices, while continuing to eat intuitively. I trust myself to get up in the morning and go exercise, not because anybody is telling me to, but because of how great it feels. I trust myself to continue on this path, because I feel fantastic, and I want to continue to feel this way!
Paige is such a gem! Her kind, generous, and humble demeanor make her so easy to talk to. Her knowledge and resources were endless, too! I would recommend Paige to anyone, specifically if you have any issues with food (diets, binging, etc.), as well as anybody issues (self-esteem, not feeling the right weight, etc.).
I’ll always consider Paige my coach, and friend. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to work with Paige!"
“My mentality has made a complete 180 degree shift since starting to work with Paige. It’s such a relief to be binge-free, feel good in my own skin, even if I’m not “perfect” in the eyes of society and love life without having food on my mind 100% of the time.”
During my bi-weekly sessions Paige was able to help me work toward these goals by teaching me new ways to control my binges and overcome the crazy binge/restrict/diet cycle. I have struggled for so many years with this, read so many books about intuitive eating and employed so many tactics to try and stop this pattern but nothing worked. Paige taught me a whole new way of thinking which enabled me to really live like a “normal” person and not revolve my life around what my next meal would be, or how much protein, fat and carbs I was eating on the daily. She has taught me what the true meaning of BALANCE is and I FINALLY feel free of all my past food demons.
The biggest change I have noticed since beginning the program with Paige has been my ability to change my mentality. I honestly went into this with reservations because I have tried SO many things and I didn’t think it was possible for me to change, however, she helped me achieve change! My mentality has made a complete 180 degree shift since starting to work with Paige. It’s such a relief to be binge-free, feel good in my own skin, even if I’m not “perfect” in the eyes of society and most of all I’ve learned to love life without having food on my mind 100% of the time. It hasn’t been easy, I had plenty of falls along the way, but I truly feel like I’ve made to where I always wished I could be.
Paige is a kind-hearted, honest, and easy to talk to woman. I found it very easy to open up to her and share things that I typically wouldn’t even share with my best girlfriends. I think that has been one of the most valuable qualities of this program, if I didn’t feel comfortable enough to open up to her like I did, I don’t think I’d have achieved my goals.
I would recommend Paige to everyone! I think everyone can benefit from a health coach. There were things I learned along the way about myself that I didn’t even know and probably would never have caught onto if I hadn’t gone through this process. It’s been a life-changing process and one that I will always have Paige to thank for!"
“I don’t crave processed foods anymore and it’s a lot easier to eat healthy!”
Paige was able to help me work toward these goals by giving me small goals to work towards every two weeks. This was so awesome because this way, I didn’t feel overwhelmed to tackle everything at once. Instead, I worked really hard at the few small goals for those weeks, mastered them and then added a few more.
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been really being aware of what I am putting into my body. I don't crave processed foods anymore and it’s a lot easier to eat healthy. It just makes my body feel better and I really notice the difference!
The most significant overall change I have noticed has been my weight loss. Although I do not weigh myself, my whole body is just smaller and I feel healthier and happier.
I would describe Paige as one of the kindest, most approachable, nonjudgmental, and sweet and open young ladies. I consider her a friend because of how much she helped me, and she is someone that I want to keep in touch with because of her positive and sweet personality.
I would recommend Paige to anyone and everyone!"
“I feel like a better, happier (and skinnier!) version of myself.”
Paige took all those feelings, all that negativity and erased them. She helped me get past my insecurities and reminded me that I’m beautiful no matter what size I am. She taught me to listen to myself and my body and to make healthy decisions because I wanted to, not because I had to. She taught me to forgive myself when I make mistakes and give myself grace. After our 6 month program I felt like a better, happier (and skinnier!) version of myself.
I am so grateful to Paige, her teachings and her work ethic. Paige has not only become a health coach but a dear friend. Her passion for helping people is contagious and she’s one of the best listeners I’ve ever met. She also looks like a Barbie, but that’s beside the point.
Thank you for everything, Paige. You really changed my life."

“I don’t remember the last time I binged.”
Some of my most proud accomplishments have been reducing my anxiety, setting myself up for success, enjoying moments without guilt about food, treating myself (gotta love those bubble baths!), and rephrasing negative thoughts. I couldn't have done any of it without the support of Paige. She is such a kind, warm soul and I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to find balance and happiness in life."
“Working with Paige was instrumental in helping me find peace with myself.”
I really liked the fact that we would come up a few goals in between sessions to work on, as now I realize that I have accomplished so much. This includes not depriving myself, preparing my own food, doing more exercise, feeling better in my own body and not weighing myself. These are only a few of my achieved goals, the biggest being having stopped binge eating. Also we didn't just focus on food but other aspects of my life. I now enjoy making more time for myself and focusing more on gratitude, which always makes each day a little better.
I am so grateful to have had Paige as my health coach as she is such a sweet, caring and amazing person."
“From my very first session I felt comfortable as Paige is so supportive and non-judgmental. She could relate to what I was going through.”

“I have become more joyful and positive, feel comfortable with who I am, have more self-confidence, and have let go of bingeing!”
When I first contacted Paige, I thought a Health Coach dealt just with food. I could not have been more wrong! She has helped me with finances, my career (I now have an entire vision board of how I want my future business to be thanks to her!), increasing my productivity with school and life, and so much more.
If you are debating about whether to contact Paige for that initial consultation, hopefully this is that little push you need to do so. It has been the best decision I have made.
Paige and my accountability partner have been such a huge part of my life that I am actually flying out to California to officially meet them next week! I have dreamed of moving to California, and being able to visit the state as well as meet such special people is a dream trip. Even in the business of her job and planning her wedding, Paige is spending the weekend with us in Ventura and showing us all of her favorite places. I could not ask for a better Health Coach, and I'm so excited to meet her!
This has been such a growing year for me, and I have Paige to thank for that. She is amazing!"
“Investing in your health is the most loving, selfless things that you can do for yourself.”
While I learned a ton about nutrition, much more than I divulged here, I also learned a lot about balance. I have always been a perfectionist and probably always will be and this has always made me think in a "black and white" mentality. There was never any gray areas for me in my life. If I worked out, I felt like I needed to spend at least an hour doing so. If I was going to make a home cooked meal, it had to be several courses. I quickly learned, that it was ok to spend 20 minutes taking my dog for a walk or doing sprints and push-ups on my stairs. My meals didn't have to be fancy nor did they have to include a list full of ingredients, they just needed to be wholesome and what sounded good to me. All of this was eye opening to me and such a relief to not stress over "what I thought I should be doing".
I have been struggling with some digestive issues for awhile now and through my time working with Paige, she really was a great support system for me. I was undergoing lots of tests to figure out the causes and she was so supportive and helped me find things that I could do to relax and take my mind off of those stressors.
If you are on the fence about working with Paige, I say DO IT! Yes, it is an investment, but investing in your health is the most loving, selfless things that you can do for yourself. It's time to show yourself some love!"
“I am now stronger than ever feeling happy with my personal life, relationships and self, and am more prepared than ever before to go forward, be successful and live my fullest life.”
I had been a long time fan of Paige’s blog and saw health coaching as an option and decided to give it a try. After six months of coaching I can safely say that things are now extremely different. Paige has helped me on many levels to take care of myself. Not to mention, I have more than doubled my range of amazing, healthy recipes.
I now see a connection between planning and organizing my life, and my overall wellbeing. I now demand time for myself, ensure that I am planning healthy meals, and allow myself time to reflect and take stock of things without feeling guilty. I place greater priority than ever on sleep, diet and exercise and don’t feel like I have to ruin my body to be successful. As a result of six months working with Paige I am now stronger than ever feeling happy with my personal life, relationships and self, and am more prepared than ever before to go forward, be successful and live my fullest life. Thank you Paige!"
“I learned that it was okay to treat myself just because. I started listening to cravings. I began being more social. I got my period back.”
We went over my goals and how I felt about my life at the moment. It wasn't the easiest thing talking about my life since it was nowhere near where I wanted it to be, but it made me excited to begin working with Paige. After just the first session I remember feeling a billion pounds lighter. It felt so relieving to be able to speak with someone so kind, patient, and understanding! We started slow with some of my goals (for example, drinking more water and less caffeine and incorporating more veggies into my diet.) I began to tackle more and more tasks as the time went on. I began to pay attention to my food as I ate it. I learned that it was okay to treat myself just because. I started listening to cravings. I began being more social. I got my period back.
Throughout the past six months I have had so many ups and downs. I found a lot of things that worked for me and a few that didn't. Paige didn't give up though. She always had suggestions, and was able to push me to talk through my problems. She really helped me understand myself more.
At my last session we went over all my accomplishments...I was stunned. Heck, I still am! I had reached ALL my goals that I had set 6 months previously! Sure, I wasn't perfect, and still am not. I sometimes over eat & feel guilty, but it is a journey after all, right? Now I am able to notice, and learn from my experiences. I have become more aware and have learned to recognize my "triggers" and how to deal with them.
I went into health coaching soley thinking that it was going to be about food and my relationship with food, but the truth is, it is SO much more! Everything affects your health: money, your surroundings, your relationships, etc. Paige helps with all of those areas. One of the greatest sessions I had with Paige was talked about relationships, and I don't think we mentioned food more than once. I remember going into that session shaky, unstable, and a mess. I left feeling calm, collected, and ready to tackle the world. Each session with Paige was like taking a breath of fresh air.
Honestly, I could go on forever about my health coaching experience with Paige. I've never met her in person, but she is definitely one of the most beautiful people I know! She has helped me more than she knows, and I am truly blessed to have had her help and support.
I would definitely recommend Paige to anyone and everyone. She is so dedicated to help others, and will not stop till she does so! She takes her job extremely seriously. I was always so impressed with all her resources she would send after a session! I would have not been able to accomplish all I've done without her help. And for that, I am eternally grateful.
Thank you Paige so much for everything! :)"
“Making my health a priority has now become a permanent part of my life.”
Working with Paige has been inspiring as she is so passionate about what she does, which as helped me to become passionate about my health as well. Paige is incredibly resourceful and has taught me how to eat in a way that supports my body and makes me feel good. Through her, I have learned to become aware of what works for me and what doesn’t, I have basically learned to pay attention to my body. I found it super helpful that she doesn’t rule things out but really tries to come up with tailored alternatives that work. Paige has also helped me find techniques to address my stress levels.
Having finished the first six months of the program, overall I feel uplifted. While I still feel over-worked, stressed and anxious at times, I now know that I can confidently deal with these issues in a positive way through everything I have learned from Paige. Making my health a priority has now become a permanent part of my life. I no longer need to rely on caffeine and I very rarely drink coffee these days. My sleep has improved greatly and through working with both Paige and my naturopath, I have managed to control my IBS.
Throughout the six months, Paige was happy to support me when I needed it and speaking to her every two weeks really helped me to stay on track (or, in some cases, to get back on track)."
“I’ve learned to trust myself and the importance of holding myself accountable, not only with my job or activities, but also with my thoughts about myself and taking care of my health.”
In the end I think our sessions together taught me about one core idea - TRUST. I learned to trust myself and the importance of holding myself accountable, not only with my job or activities, but also with my thoughts about myself and taking care of my health. Looking back to when I first started with Paige, I was working toward this idea of perfection and fell into the trap of thinking "My life will be perfect if I just XYZ..." I was looking to the future so much that I was neglecting each moment. Paige helped me to focus more on taking one day at a time and listening to my body to provide me with the right signals for the nourishment I needed. This took some time to get used to and I am still working on continually being in that "listening" state, but it has had a tremendous impact on my relationship with food and my body. I learned not to judge myself for craving sweets or something I used to think was "taboo", but instead trust my cravings and be okay with allowing myself to eat or drink that item to the point of being satisfied (not over indulging by eating the whole thing once I start).
In addition to helping me with areas of physical health, Paige also helped me learn more about taking care of my mental health as well. This included making time for daily devotionals, setting up a good sleep pattern, making my apartment a more comfortable, enjoyable place to be and also pursuing my passions and making plans for the future.
I highly recommend Paige and her health coaching services. Not only has she been a great coach, she has become a great friend as well. She has helped me change the way I live and helped keep me accountable as I worked through those changes over the past several months. Thank you Paige for all you have done - I cannot even begin to tell you the impact you have made!"
“These past six-months with Paige have absolutely changed my life. I know more about myself than I ever have.”
“I am more satisfied in knowing I can leave food on my plate without concerning myself with what others may think.”
Paige was able to help me work toward these goals by providing knowledgeable and friendly support. I felt like she never judged me for my actions or choices but instead helped me find alternatives or solutions to fix any sort of “problems” either health, food or financially related.
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been that I feel more comfortable about eating out and don’t worrying as much. I am more satisfied in knowing I can leave food on my plate without concerning myself with what others may think. I know which foods are upsetting to me and either how to reduce the issues I have with them or find alternatives to satisfy my cravings.
The most significant overall change I have noticed has been my relationship with food. I struggled with so many questions from “how often should I eat in a day?” “how much food should I be eating?” “what foods are irritating my body?”. Paige helped me to understand that you can take out the questions by not really questioning them at all. Basically stop worrying and listen to your body.
I would describe Paige as not only one of the nicest woman I was fortunate enough to talk to every other week and eventually meet in person, but someone that genuinely cares about women. She is there to make woman feel better about themselves and to have that talent to reach out to woman, is very rare. She definitely has a gift.
I would recommend Paige to any of my friends who want an outsiders perspective on such personal struggles like food, health, and finances.
I started out Paige’s program not really knowing what I was getting myself into to be quite honest. Was she holistic? Was she going to judge me? Is she going to tell me what specific foods to eat? All of these questions were immediately debunked when I first spoke to her on the phone during my Consultation. She was so kind and really interested in hearing what was going on in my life! I came in wanting to achieve so much and not really thinking I could accomplish much at all. I was so overwhelming surprised by the end of the 6 month program that I had met most of my goals, if not more! Here are just a few of the things Paige helped me accomplish: I understood which foods irritated me, how to handle eating out, when to listen to my body, I completed a challenge of 100 miles by Valentines Day, I completed running my first 10k, I have become a yoga “addict”, I walk almost every day at lunch, and I am generally more in control than ever before. I want to thank Paige for all her hard work that she puts towards her clients. It shows and I can say I am a success story because of it."
“My mindset has 150% changed. It’s the craziest thing!”
The biggest tangible thing I have noticed since starting Health Coaching is the loss of inches on my body. I partnered up with Paige to better my relationship with food as well as lose weight. Once I started losing weight, I was elated! Then something interesting happened; I started losing inches all over my body. Clothes started to fit differently; everything was getting thinner. FINALLY! I continue to lose inches and the pounds are slowly following...and I'm ok with that 🙂
The most significant change I have noticed are my thoughts around food. My mindset has 150% changed. It's the craziest thing! Now, I’m thinking about which foods will make me feel good, instead of just eating because it's lunch time. I have learned to treat my body like my most favorite vehicle, filling it with the best fuel I can get.
I would describe Paige as a gentle soul who exerts tremendous amounts of joy. I have never met someone who cares about people as much as she does. I often walked into my Sessions feeling like a broken puzzle, and ALWAYS left feeling put back together.
Paige, never switch careers! You have found your passion and God has clearly chosen you to share this amazing gift!
I have always thought that every kind of therapy is beneficial to anyone. No matter what kind of life you have lived, EVERYONE can benefit from chatting with a complete stranger. It just takes that first step in moving forward."
“Signing up for Health Coaching with Paige is one of the best time, money, and effort I’ve invested in myself.”
Six months later, I feel more in control of my life than I ever have before. I have stopped seeing life as black and white, but live in the 'grey area', where so much more is possible. It is in this grey area that I have fulfilled my coaching commitments, begun to think of food as nourishing, let go of stress, worry far less than I ever have, reigned in my finances, and adopted a wholesome and positive attitude. Paige has kept my accountable for all my commitments, and patiently worked with me to sift through all my conundrums. Paige's experiences allow her to relate to almost anyone, and I can say with confidence that anyone who works with her would benefit from the program. Signing up for Health Coaching with Paige is one of the best time, money, and effort I've invested in myself. Thank you, Paige!"

“Signing up for Health Coaching was the best thing I could have done for my overall well-being: mental, spiritual, and physical.”
“I have found a balance between food and exercise which has allowed me to have a social life, improve relationships and find a job that I love.”
Over the last six-months, I have found a balance between food and exercise which has allowed me to have a social life, improve relationships and find a job that I love. Instead of going to the gym for 2 hours a day, Paige has taught me to be more intuitively active. I eat the foods I enjoy without over eating, don't skip meals and I have even shed a few pounds the healthy way. I never get on the scale and no longer feel uncomfortable in my body. I have no desire to binge or over eat and have found foods that keep me satisfied. When food and exercise does not control your life, it is amazing what one can accomplish! I have improved my social life and relationships. I am happy! Paige has helped me prioritize, so I can have quiet time, work, attend school and spend time with friends. I appreciate my body for everything it allows me to do.
Over the past six-months Paige has guided me to make huge improvements in my life. I now know what works for my body and what doesn't. I know how to handle my stress, workload, etc. in a healthy way and not turn to food to control me. Food fuels my body to do what I need it to do and Paige has taught me that!"
“I have so much more energy and feel better overall. I’ve noticed my body needs much less food than I always thought it did.”
When I first started working with Paige, my main goal was just to lose weight. I have not only lost weight, but also gained self-confidence. I feel so much better with my body and now understand how the food choices I make truly affect my daily outlook. When I am eating healthier and spending more time planning and cooking my own meals, I have so much more energy and just feel better overall. I have also noticed how my body needs much less food than I always thought it did. One of my major downfalls was eating every meal in front of the television. When I do that, I focus more on the new tv show I’m watching instead of what I’m putting in my mouth. By taking time out and completely focusing on my meal, I eat much less and enjoy every bite.
One of my favorite parts of the program is how open Paige is to discussing anything. When I thought I was having problems with eating gluten foods, Paige spent time researching my symptoms and talked with me about replacing gluten foods with gluten-free and about how to adjust my diet in a healthy manner. She always goes out of her way to make sure the client is comfortable and I never felt embarrassed to talk to her about anything. I am going to be sad to see my program end and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a new and improved lifestyle."
“I now enjoy finding ways to be active in my everyday life. I walk when I can, ask friends to go to yoga classes instead of bars, and I’ve even started weight lifting and exercising daily.”
Through my conversations with Paige I have been able to move towards all three of these goals! Especially my weight loss. Two years ago I was in a hiking accident and broke my pelvis. I was immobile for over a month and I gained fifteen pounds. This weight gain combined with my weight gain when started college sent me on a downward spiral. I was ashamed of my body and I wanted to get back to the body that I was confident in. I tried everything to lose weight, calorie cutting, weight watchers, and extreme exercise. Though I would lose weight at first I always bounced back and started the cycle all over again. Paige has given me the tools to think about food and my body in a healthy, productive way, and through our conversations and the exercises/readings she gives me I have been able to change my mindset about food and dieting. Our first session Paige said to me “this is an investment in your health.” I have fully realized how truly important my sessions with Paige are. I have embarked on a journey to a healthier, happier lifestyle and I’m never turning back!
My biggest challenge is my battle against binging on sugar, candy, sweets, and all my favorite things! This is a constant problem in my life and Paige has really helped me and given me tangible tools to learn how to battle binge. One thing we always talk about is changing my mindset about “bad” foods. Instead of telling myself what I can’t have I’ve started to tell myself I can have anything I want whenever I want it. I have started to ask myself “Do I really, truly want this? How does it make me feel an hour later?” When I don’t limit my foods and allow myself to make careful choices I find that I am able to overpower my psychological cravings and stop using food as a comfort mechanism.
Besides my significant (and lasting) weight loss the greatest change in my behavior has been adopting a more active lifestyle. Before working with Paige I took cabs, buses, any form of transportation to avoid walking. I now enjoy finding ways to be active in my everyday life. I walk when I can, ask friends to go to yoga classes instead of bars on our outings, and I have even started weight lifting and exercising daily. And I truly love it! I never thought that would happen.
Paige is one of the most special people in the world. She is wise beyond her years and always listens without judgment. The other night when we were talking she told me she “speaks my language” and that really resonated with me. As someone who has struggled with the same issues that I face on a daily basis she is an amazing support system and gives advice from a place of knowledge and kindness.
I would recommend Paige to anyone who feels that they want to improve their relationship with food. I have changed my disordered eating habits through talking with Paige, and by doing so changed my quality of life. If I had not met Paige I would still be stuck in a cycle of deprivation and shame, and I want anyone who has ever felt this way to reach out to her! Get ready to change your life."
“Making that decision to sign up for my first Discovery Session was the best decision I’ve made in a very long time.”
One of my goals was to be a more positive and grateful person, and I have come so far in this area. She has helped me achieve this goal by giving me tons of suggestions that she has applied to her life, giving me weekly goals and checking in with me, and so so much more! Paige is by far one of the most uplifting, positive, happy persons I have met, and I could not have picked anyone better to guide me and help make me a better person. I can relate to her so much, and from our first conversation, she has been such an encouraging person in my life.
I can honestly say that I would recommend Paige to anyone, no matter what their struggles are. I look forward to our phone conversations, and she frequently emails or texts me to check in, which is so great! Really, what more could you ask for in a health coach?
A recent thing that Paige has done is started a Facebook group for all of her clients, which has been so amazing! I love seeing all us girls encouraging one another, swapping tips, and just knowing that I'm not alone. I can be so open to all of them, and know that I won't be judged.
I'm happy to say that I have signed up for another 6 months to work with Paige, without hesitation. Making that decision to sign up for my first health consultation was the best decision I've made in a very long time, and I couldn't be more thankful for all that she has done."
“I don’t eat healthy anymore just to lose weight (which I have!). I do it because it makes me feel good and have more energy. My mindset about healthy eating/living has changed a lot!”
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been actually choosing to eat healthier as it makes me feel good. I don't eat healthy anymore just to lose weight (which I have!!). I do it because it makes me feel good and have more energy. My mindset about healthy eating/living has changed a lot!
I would describe Paige as kind, sweet, caring, genuine, and non-judgemental. Paige always has something nice to say and helps you to see the positive in everything. There were so many things that we discussed that I would assume someone would think I was nuts, but Paige never acted that way. She cared to hear what I had to say and I felt very comfortable talking to her about anything.
Paige's Program focuses on being in tune with yourself and knowing what is best for you. That is something I didn't even come into this thinking I needed, but I am so glad that I got that! I am so happy I made the decision to work with Paige. I highly doubt I would be where I am today had I not done this Program with her."
“I am much more relaxed and realize that life isn’t all about working out and eating a certain amount of calories. Paige has helped me welcome balance into my life and I love it!”
Now, I am much more relaxed. I realize that life isn’t all about working out and eating a certain amount of Calories. Paige has helped me welcome balance into my life and I love it!
The best thing that came from my 6-Months with Paige is how much more I love myself. Paige has really, really helped me to love and accept myself so much more! Today, I am more compassionate toward myself, and others.
I would describe Paige as AMAZING! She really is in every sense of the word! She’s so nice, sweet, and down to earth! I can talk to her about absolutely anything and she understands what I am going through. She never judges and is always there for me. Honestly, she’s amazing!
I would recommend her to anyone struggling negatively towards themselves or others. She’s such a positive influence, and can relate in so many areas because she herself has been there.
I have changed so much over the past 6-Months thanks to Paige. I’ve stopped over, and under eating as much, I’ve stopped over exercising, and I’ve started to become closer to myself, and my body. I’m learning to listen to my body with Paige’s help.
I just signed up for another 6-Months and I cannot wait to learn even more about myself!"
“I feel positive about food changes, doing things for myself, and trying to achieve a healthy lifestyle.”
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since starting Paige’s Program has been being aware of how certain foods make me feel and affect my mood. The most significant overall change I have noticed has been being able to feel positive about food changes, doing things for myself, and trying to achieve a healthy lifestyle.
I would describe Paige as a great friend and mentor. She is extremely positive and I look forward to each one of our talks!"
“I feel set free! I’m no longer worried about going out with friends and feel like food is controlling me.”
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning this program has been that I feel set free! I am no longer worried about going out for a day with friends, or to run errands and feel like food is controlling me. The most significant overall change I have noticed has been confidence. I can actually look in the mirror and smile at myself. I no longer loathe my imperfections!
In one word I would describe Paige as genuine. She has been so easy to open up to about my negative body image and food habits-the same habits that I wouldn't even tell my best friend! I would recommend Paige to everybody! She is amazing!
If you are even considering Health Coaching, do it! Health isn't just health, food, or fitness. It's about a complete balance with friends, family, finances, and many other things that I would have even realized if it weren't for Paige's Coaching!"
“My skin feels great, my belly is less noticeable and my face is brighter!”
The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been changes in my body. My skin feels great, my belly is less noticeable and my face is brighter!
The most significant overall change I have noticed has been the change in my entire demeanor! I am a happier, more confident person! While completing Paige’s program, I was able to comfortably wean off antidepressant medications. I also met my future husband! Being more confident and active gave me the ability to meet someone that I am able to have a healthy relationship with!
I would describe Paige as a bubbly, passionate, empathetic, knowledgeable, caring, giving woman! I would recommend Paige to anyone! Paige was able to teach me about healthy choices. I feel strongly that even people who believe they make healthy choices daily can benefit from her program, because there are healthier whole foods that belong in everyone’s diet. Paige taught me to veer away from the world of preservatives and convenience to eating habits that bodies deserve and are meant to have. Paige takes her job extremely seriously; she has so much knowledge and so many resources. If she doesn’t know the answer to a question, she makes it her responsibility to find the answer and to follow up.
Integrative nutrition is such an important lifestyle for everyone. While nutrition programs focus on a quick fix in one aspect of our “balanced diet,” integrative nutrition brings light to the whole person. I appreciate Paige’s ability to teach me and hold me accountable while making this lifelong transition!”
