“I’ve paid for programs before that didn’t get results because they lacked support. This program was different – lots of support from Hannah, helpful resources, and accountability from other mums who get it! I loved the sustainable approach with small, actionable steps that fit into my family’s lifestyle.

After hitting a weight loss plateau, I was able to lose more postpartum body fat without specifically trying—just by implementing our weekly goals. My energy and mood improved so much by focusing on meal planning and prep.”

"Working with Hannah for 3 months was exactly what I needed to change my outlook on healthy eating for long-lasting results. Now, 9 months later, I’m at my body’s ideal weight and maintaining it!
Previously, my weight always returned after fad diets. With Hannah’s science-based, personalized approach, I’ve learned to listen to my body and understand what I need to feel and look my best.
I now enjoy weekend trips and make healthy choices while still enjoying carbs and wine. I’m so thankful for Hannah’s knowledge and gentle, encouraging approach to a healthier relationship with food!"

“I’ve struggled with lifelong emotional eating and yo-yo dieting, and I’m so incredibly proud that I’ve been able to challenge many of those habits. I’ve noticed a huge decrease in the food noise I didn’t know could go away, and I gained so many useful tools to continue on my own. This is so much more valuable than a quick-fix meal plan.

Hannah was my biggest cheerleader and always recognized my accomplishments. It feels cliché to say, but this program is truly changing my life.”

"Last year when my doctor told me that losing weight may improve my overall health in preparation for pregnancy, I decided to join this program and really commit to making a change. ​Now, after 3 months and 20 pounds lighter, I feel happier, healthier, my clothes fit better, I’m sleeping better, and I’m eating a more balanced and more nutrient-dense diet. ​I never thought that success could actually feel so simple and that I could actually succeed while living my life on my terms at the same time. I’ve never had a better relationship with food than I do now. This program has truly changed my life.”
