When working with Jordyn, it was obvious to me that I was important to her. She was constantly checking in on me and made sure I understood everything, I love how she educated me on the reasons behind the recommendations.

My life has been made so much better since working with Jordyn. I knew I needed to make a change but I did not realize how much my life would change from implementing the nutrition and lifestyle changes we worked on.

I've lost weight, I no longer feel tired, worn out, shaky, and sad. I never want to go back to the way I was before.

Before working with Jordyn, I would attempt to follow hard to stick to plans for immediate results but could never stick with it. Now, I am learning the value of real foods and self-care/stress management.

My mood has improved, I never realized how much food could make a difference in how I felt emotionally. I even feel like I do not need to use my "as needed" anxiety medications as much as before.

One of my favorite things about working with Jordyn has been the knowledge she has shared with me. She has given me the tools I need and tons of support; I have found a lot of value through our weekly check-ins. Jordyn is easy to talk to and share information with, I never feel shamed when I share my struggles, she is very motivational and shares from her own experiences/journey.

I am changing my all-or-nothing mindset. I notice a difference in how I feel when I follow the plan Jordyn and I created together. I have learned that a health plan shouldn't be something short-term but should be sustainable long-term.
-1:1 Client
Other programs have been hard to sustain long term and focused more on weight loss than overall health. Working with Jordyn has shown me that I can lose weight, but there are other aspects that are important too...sustainability, gut health, stress reduction, healing my gut, body, and mind, changing the way I view food and my relationship with food.
