Beyond The Athlete

I reached out to Alyssa after being stuck for some time. I had finished my coaching certification and then didn’t do anything. I just kept putting it off, telling myself I wanted to start a coaching business, but just waiting. Reaching out to Alyssa was my first real action step. We meet for a consult and I was on board immediately. We started by revealing the state I was in. I was letting my perfectionist procrastination self control me, which essentially meant I wasn’t doing anything. We worked through this.

I started stepping out of my comfort zone and posting on social media. I was resistant to change or doing anything Alyssa suggested many many times, but she was patient and willing to meet me where I was. As I started to shift my perspectives and my business started to grow we were able to dig deeper, not only working on what was good and hard with business, but also digging into what makes me me, working on self care, relationships, and all sorts of things that we’re holding me back or areas that growth would only strengthen. Every session I gained new perspective and found new ways to grow. I’m actively growing my nurse coaching business and showing up consistently for it. I truly believe I would still be waiting had I not reached out to Alyssa months ago.

“I started working with Alyssa shortly after moving to a new city and switching teams at my company. I'm a 28-year old software developer who had picked up some terrible workaholic habits over the previous three years and needed to bring back much needed discipline in my life. With Alyssa's help, I started exercising regularly again, started eating healthy and meal prepping, stopped stress eating candy, and drastically cut back on my caffeine intake. I accomplished all of these things in less than three months and have so far stuck with them (1 month and counting).

Throughout the 3 month period, she held me accountable, made me aware of bad mental habits, and gave me life hack suggestions to meet my goals (one example is ordering groceries online to save me time on the weekends grocery shopping). I would not be this happy with my life this quickly after uprooting my life if it wasn't for Alyssa's help.”

“Before starting to work with Alyssa, my life felt unfulfilled. I wasn’t able to motivate myself or figure out the right steps to make meaningful changes to my health and well-being. With the coaching sessions, I was able to figure out some healthy habits I can form, which have already been life changing. Once holding myself accountable to what Alyssa and I talked about in our sessions, I found I am now able to enjoy my free time in a more productive way that betters my mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Alyssa is a great coach because she is in it whole-heartedly. She is extremely easy to talk to and has a great balance between being a good listener and giving a little conversational guidance where it’s needed. I felt very heard in our sessions, as the action plans we would make were always pertinent to not only our discussion from that day but also conversations we had in prior sessions.

From the plans we made and ideas we dug into together, I can happily say I am better off now than I was before working with Alyssa. I gained a new outlook on how I should be taking care of myself and an appreciation for my own ability to change my life for the better. I now feel like I am in control of my life and not the other way around! It is very easy to recognize when you need change in your life or routine but it can be difficult to actually pull yourself up to do it. For anyone who feels stuck in their current life cycle and is looking for ways to better their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, I recommend working with Alyssa. The work she does truly is life changing!”
