Meet the Team
Maria - Founder
Professionally, Maria is a board-certified Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Macro Nutrition Coach, and NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach. This is what makes what she brings to the table exactly what you need to stop the ‘forever dieting cycle’ and reach your goals and sustain them! She bridges the gaps between nutritional, physical, and mental health. Together, bringing accountability to your actions and making nutrition simple for busy women to finally reach their goals and never look back!
On a personal note, in her words, “I am a wife and mother of three kiddos!
It was difficult for me to navigate the world after having my first. Figuring life out as a full-time working momma, in a body and mind I did not recognize, was heavy. I think that’s part of the reason I decided my ideal client is a woman!
I understand the social constructs set for women and how they are so much more than that! Another part of me that’s a big deal (but one that I graciously admit) is I am a Cancer Survivor. I believe, deep in my soul, that my health is more than mine. It is also my family’s. They are my why. Even though my journey is not in the same shoes as you, I empathize with your journey and would be honored to walk alongside you, friend.”
Husband & Kids - Cheerleaders
A healthy lifestyle is truly a family affair. From Crossfit to Bodybuilding competitions, my husband and myself expose our kids to a life that makes them excited to try new and hard things and build physical and mental toughness. The 3 pillars of fitness • Fuel • Lift • Heal • are lived day in and day out! Leading by example and raising the next generation.
I could not do this without their support and I am truly grateful and constantly giving thanks to God for the blessing of family and a wonderful (& extremely cute) team!
