I was connected with Alyssa earlier this year when she really invested herself into this nurse-coaching platform. She reached out to me because we used to work together and have similar goals with fitness and health. When she reached out, I was so excited to begin this journey with her. For the past few years, I have devoted more of my time to fitness, eating clean, and strengthening my mental health. When Alyssa described to me what she intended to do, I was impressed and definitely wanted to work
with her.
Alyssa asked to sit down for a 2 hour chat, and to be honest, it took a lot for me to agree. I am constantly busy and 2 hours out of my day sounded like a lot. But, wow – I couldn’t be happier that I did! Those 2 hours FLEW by. We talked about physical health, mental health, financial health, family relationships, goals, and so much more. Tears were shed, but it was so amazing to speak some of those things aloud. I have done therapy before, and I have never had that good of an experience. Knowing Alyssa’s background in nursing, public health, and fitness also comforts me since I know that she knows what she is talking about.
Alyssa definitely has the tools and background for this career shift. She is extremely motivating, and she also holds me accountable for things that I say in our meetings, which I absolutely love. Being so busy each week, I sometimes struggle holding myself accountable for things that I say. For example, I have been wanting to join an intramural league in the city for the past year, but I just haven’t taken the time to research a league and sign up. When I mentioned it to Alyssa, she pushed me to find one and just look into it. Step by step. The following week when she brought it up, I thought to myself that this is definitely something I want to participate in. Jump ahead to today, I am 4 weeks in to my intramural volleyball league, and I am absolutely loving it. I have made some friends, and I will definitely continue playing!
Having someone like Alyssa in my corner to push me and also applaud me for accomplishments is something I never knew I needed. She really has a knack for what she does, and I am so grateful to have her as my coach. The amount of self-love growth, mental health growth, and fitness growth I have seen in the past 8 weeks is literally CRAZY to me. I am excited to continue my work with Alyssa over the next few months, and I cannot imagine what is in store for me.
