    Meet Heather

    Hi! I’m Heather. I’ve been a personal trainer and wellness coach for the last 6 years. My focus with my clients is helping them to figure out why we, as women, feel the way we do about our bodies, how we define what's good enough for us, and why we are so afraid to feel good about the way we look. I have been on my own wellness journey over the past twenty years: becoming a wife and mother to two amazing girls, losing over 80 pounds (lots of running and a dedication to weight watchers) and winning the battle against depression. Now, I spend my life trying to change the way others view themselves and helping them find their own way to a life filled with health, wellness, and a little exercise. Follow along at Letting Go of the Numbers.

    The Mission of Girlfriends’ Guide to Living

    A Girlfriends' Guide to Living was born out of the idea that it takes a village — not only to raise a child — but to live the life you deserve. However, many women do not have the same support network of girlfriends that I have been blessed to find and lean on during difficult times, so I am going to lend you mine and invite you to join our tribe. Here, you'll always find your virtual girlfriends offering their opinions, support and advice on topics that impact other women — including you. Our mission is to empower women to empower themselves and share our collective wisdom to help each other thrive. Learn more ...
