praise
I decided to treat myself to 6 months of health coaching with Liza at a time when I was doing many things “right” in my quest for good health, but I wasn’t getting the results I was expecting. I am so glad I did; my time with Liza is the single most important gift I’ve ever given myself. After six months, I have learned so much about myriad topics, some expected and some I consider bonus material. The path wasn’t always direct; I encountered hurdles when life disrupted my plan, but Liza ensured I was never derailed. The best outcome is that I am kind to myself. Every. Day.

I always look forward to my sessions with Liza. It's like standing at the mouth of a dark cave I'm not ready to go into and having her show up with the flashlight.

FAQ
Here’s a taste of my answers to the questions I’m asked most frequently.
You can find the full list on my FAQ page.
Let's get the most important ones out of the way first:
What's your favorite food?
Chocolate. Um, I mean kale.
What's your favorite beverage?
Red wine. And coffee. Um, I mean water and herbal tea.
What's your favorite show?
I'm a complete sucker for any crime drama on Britbox, especially if it's set in Scotland.
How many languages have you studied?
Seven: Russian, English, Spanish, French, Latin, Mandarin Chinese, and Scots Gaelic. (Nine if you count snark and sarcasm.)
And seriously....
What is a health coach?
A health coach does not diagnose conditions, prescribe supplements or medications, or treat disease. Nor is she a guru or sage on the stage; instead, she acts as a guide on the side. Her role is to help you to change your behavior by providing information, inspiration, and support as you make your way toward deep, lasting wellness.
For more about what a health coach does and how to find one that’s a fit for you, read my interview with Jen Mueller of SparkPeople.
Why would I work with you in particular?
Here’s what makes me unique:
Empathy
I’ve been where you are—overscheduled, overtired, overwhelmed. Trying to take care of everyone and forgetting to take care of me. Wondering what would happen if I took the grocery money and just. kept. driving. Believing the only way out involved the Witness Protection Program—a plane ticket, a wad of cash, and a change of identity—so nobody could hunt me down ask for just. one. more. thing.
I understand.
Experience
I have worn a lot of hats (sometimes all at once) in all kinds of jobs. I’ve been to burnout and back … and have moved beyond feeling like I was barely surviving each day to thriving in a life that I love. And along the way, I have accumulated a few decades worth of knowledge and resources that can help you get there, too.
I can help.
Empowerment
I love seeing my clients experience their own Aha! moments, see their lives in a new light, and reclaim their health—and themselves—in the process.
I’m your biggest cheerleader … until you step into that role yourself.
