A Mind Makeover
I will be forever grateful for the VSA and for my coach, Alison. For years I allowed the number on the scale to define who I was, how I was feeling or what I was worth. Prior to joining the VSA I was fixated only on the number I saw on the scale. The VSA gave me the tools I needed to change my way of thinking about that number. With their guidance and encouragement I was able to experience a shift in mindset that I had never been able to achieve on my own. This was the greatest gift I could have been given. I joined the VSA with the hope that I would lose those pesky 15 pounds that I couldn’t seem to shed. Little did I know at the time that those 15 pounds were not what I need to let go of to change my physique. What I needed to let go of was my self doubt and my negative self talk. I learned how to love and appreciate and celebrate myself and my wins during my time in the VSA. I did not lose those 15 pesky pounds on the scale, I only lost 4, but I did lose a total of 12 inches off of my frame and I dropped a whole dress and pant size. I gained so much in my short amount of time in the VSA. I learned how to fuel my body properly, and I enjoyed every second of it. I lost fat while gaining muscle. I started lifting heavier weights than I had ever lifted before. I became stronger in my body, mind and spirit. The VSA and coach Alison are true gems and I will be forever thankful for them.

Julie- My beautiful butterfly! I cannot wait to watch you spread your wings and fly high! You not only gained the knowledge you need about vegan nutrition and fueling your body properly as a vegan athlete, you learned the true power of body recomposition and that a number on the scale doesn’t mean a thing when your dress size is going down and you look lean, fit and healthy! I couldn’t be more proud of you and your progress! Thank you for the opportunity to be your coach AND your friend ❤ ~Coach Alison
