I was in a rut. I didn’t want to leave my house to socialize or meet new people. I was also struggling with my weight and my self image. I was eating poorly, feeling sorry for myself, and not being strong enough to get out of that vicious cycle.
Joelle started to make things happen. We put together a plan and worked on it together weekly. She helped me with my nutrition, exercise, and my slow integration into socialization.
Joelle is caring, compassionate and understanding. A true gem of a person. She listened, understood, and most of all found a way to make me take action. It was a life changer for me.
