Let's be honest – life is so much harder when you're not feeling your best. But guess what? It doesn't have to be that way! Today, I'm thrilled to welcome my amazing student Melissa Tegano. She completely turned her life around from suffering from the symptoms of colitis, fatigue, and anxiety to feeling vibrant and healthy in just 2.5 months. Yes, it's totally possible, my friend! In this episode, Melissa shares the incredible changes she made in her daily routine that transformed her energy, digestion, strength, and overall well-being! 

Before working with me, Melissa had a fairly healthy lifestyle, but she was still looking for ways to feel her best, navigate nutrition, and maintain effective workouts as she entered midlife. Once we teamed up, Melissa made some simple adjustments to her diet while introducing strength training to her routine, and it made all the difference! She'll tell you how she embraced these changes without feeling overwhelmed, how they improved her mental health, boosted her confidence, and helped her rediscover the joy of living a life she loves!
