Shelby has truly been a life saver! I was upset with where I was physically and it was affecting every other area of my life. I was spiraling out of control with my eating, engaging in negative self-talk, and repeating the vicious cycle of trying to stick to an unrealistic diet and it was taking a toll on me and my family. Shelby has such a kind heart....she listened without judging, pointed me in the right direction, allowed room for self discovery and growth, and cheered and encouraged me every step of the way. Through this process, I have learned to give myself more grace, come back to a more natural and intuitive eating process, and feel like I am taking back control of my life. This was not a gimmick or quick fix, this was truly a systematic approach to eating (and life) that leads to sustainable change and you controlling your life again. I cannot thank her enough for our time together!

Shelby is a great coach. Very caring and knowledgeable with great follow up and support. I highly recommend her.

Shelby's course was beneficial to me overcoming my diet minded ways. I have broken free of my thinking that I need to be constantly on a diet. It has not been easy as I have been dieting for over 40 years. There have been many 'aha' moments and she has been there to explain things to me and hold me accountable. I will NEVER go back to counting anything but my blessings in this life. I love eating healthy and taking care of my body on my terms. The freedom I have obtained is priceless. I'm never giving that up again and I regret spending so many years trying the next best diet. What a waste of precious time. It has been a journey and it continues to be a journey. Now I have the tools and confidence to make decisions and listen to my own body. She is a wonderful coach with a lot of experience and fabulous at what she does. I highly recommend her!

When I first had my clarity call with Shelby and she told me that she thought we would only need about 8 sessions to rid me of my food and body struggles, I was skeptical to say the least. As a former competitive bodybuilder and weight class sport athlete (wrestling/jiu jitsu), it felt like these things had just become part of me for good. At the same time, though, there was something about her even over the phone that inspired me to put trust in her and in the process and go for it. Well, here we are after only 7 sessions (we're keeping one in our back pocket for a rainy day), and I can say that I haven't felt this free around food or in how I view my body since I was a teenager. Most of my GI issues have just disappeared. I can experiment in the kitchen and try new restaurants as often as I'd like and be completely guilt free. In short, I'm free. Shelby is a phenomenal human being who also happens to be exceptionally good at what she does. While the work is challenging, showing up to our calls consistently felt like a gift to myself. I can't recommend working with Shelby highly enough.

Shelby and her program are the answer to those who, like me, have struggled with their relationship with food for a long, long time. The program is practical, actionable and sustainable. Shelby is expert, no-BS, courageous with her advice and it's all founded on research, science as well as personal experience. I saw results right away, and have maintained a path toward my goals from day one. Unfortunately, I waffled on my commitment to Shelby for over 2.5 years, but once I committed I never had a single ounce of regret. It's 100% worth the money and the best investment I made all year - because the payoff is multiple times per day.

I met Shelby virtually 4 months ago. After years of failed dieting, yo-yo weight loss, and a completely defeated attitude when it came to weight loss, she helped me begin a positive life-long change in terms of my relationship with food and myself. She doesn’t give you meal plans and say “follow this”. Shelby takes the time to get to know YOU- as a person- and dives deep into the underlying problems you have around food. If it was as simple as “control yourself”, we wouldn’t have an obesity problem! I’ve lost 20lbs in 3 months- not by restricting myself to “good” foods only- but by doing the hard work of addressing WHY I overate in the first place and using Shelby’s strategies to recreate a love for food while not overdoing/obsessing about it. I’m improving my health.... and not starving myself to do it.... she’s a LIFE SAVER!

Shelby has been such a huge help to me in changing my life for the better. I have had 50 years of thinking about, and obsessing over food. I have had all of the negative talk that goes with dieting and not measuring up to the diet rules and restrictions. Along comes Shelby to the rescue! Together, we worked through all of the old baggage and today I can say I no longer have the negative thoughts about messing up or missing the mark. I give myself grace. What a nice, indescribable feeling. Presently, I am free to live, workout and eat healthy. The weight is coming off and I feel the best I have felt in a long time. Thank you, Shelby, from the bottom of my heart! Hugs! Barb Dyvig

Shelby is amazing! This program was about so much more then eating. First off I had no idea that I was so stressed out I wasn’t even getting hunger cues. Through mindful eating/living I have realized so much more about how my restrictive eating was carrying over into restrictive living. Mentally I feel like the sky is the limit and I have started to dream again! Thank you Shelby!
