These past three months with Alesha have been nothing short of amazing. I’ve tried several programs and coaches before, but Alesha stood out by a long shot. I initially reached out looking for accountability and help shedding a few pounds. I knew I could execute the plan. What I didn’t expect was how much more she would offer. I had been stuck in a cycle of consistency followed by falling off for months, usually leading to weight gain and starting all over again. reaching that breaking point is what made me contact Alesha. She took the time to truly understand my weaknesses and made mindset shifts an ongoing focus throughout the program. Before working with her, I had an extreme all or nothing mentality that constantly held me back. I would feel guilty anytime I thought I “cheated.” I was scared to step on the scale anytime I wasn’t 100% with nutrition. She taught me how to work through those mental hurdles and how to give myself grace and credit where it’s due. That has helped transitioning out of her program feel natural and sustainable. Her knowledge and genuine passion for fitness made her incredibly easy to trust. She tailored my three months specifically to my lifestyle, goals, and concerns. Three months of consistency never felt so quick! Throughout this journey, I didn’t just feel like I had a fitness coach, but also a life coach and a friend.

Working with my coach Alesha over the past 12 weeks has been a truly transformative experience for me. After i met her i realized what my fitness journey had been missing. Before starting, I was stuck in a cycle of under-eating (barely 1300–1400 calories), constantly trying different workouts, and focusing only on weight loss. I wasn’t able to lift heavy and often felt exhausted midway through my workouts. Over time, everything started to shift. I’ve built real strength and can now lift much heavier with improved form. My energy levels during workouts have improved significantly, and my recovery is much better. Physically, I’ve noticed my clothes fitting better, and I’ve even started receiving compliments—which has been a huge confidence boost. I now feel comfortable and confident in all my outfits. The biggest change, however, has been my mindset around food and fitness. Food is no longer something I fear—it’s fuel. I look at my plate with positivity, carbs are my friends, and I’ve learned that I can still enjoy my favorite foods while making progress. This shift has made everything feel sustainable and enjoyable. The coaching experience itself has been incredibly supportive. Having quick access to guidance via chat meant I could ask questions anytime, and the bi-weekly check-ins were always insightful and kept me on track. On days when I felt low or doubted myself, Alesha’s encouragement and belief in me made a huge difference—she knew exactly what to say to keep me going and remind me of how far I’d come. Now, I feel much more confident, informed, and in tune with what my body needs and when. My relationship with food has improved drastically, and I approach fitness with a completely different, healthier mindset. I’m truly grateful for the constant support and motivation throughout this journey. I only wish I had known earlier that eating more and focusing on strength—not just weight loss—would lead to better, more sustainable results.

Prior to starting coaching, I felt that I had no time to properly eat and workout because of how packed and unpredictable my schedule is. I was running around back and forth from my parents house and my apartment and working late/irregular shifts, which would often get in the way of my goals. I was getting really frustrated with myself for not stepping up and starting somewhere, which is why I turned to coaching. In the past, I've done coaching one other time, and the coach's approach was very passive and was just not what I needed/was looking for. I was particularly interested in Alesha's program because of the 1:1 aspect, which was perfect because I needed someone to keep me accountable and actively push me to work through the many changes in my routine. That was, I think, the best part of the program. She would check in and work with me and my schedule, and when I struggled in certain areas, especially tracking, she always came in clutch with several options on how we can make this work. Working with her helped me better my relationship with food, helped me feel better about myself and my body, and become confident in making sure I state my boundaries and work with what I have. I lost about 15 lbs through these 12-weeks, which is such an accomplishment for me, given it is hard for me to lose weight due to my PCOS. She has shared so many helpful tips and recommendations which I hope to carry on throughout my health journey and implement in my day to day, and she has truly changed my approach to self-care as a busy, working woman. Looking back, I wish I knew about how MUCH of a mental commitment this is. You really have to be prepared to hold it down and push through for results, despite the obstacles and fleeting feelings of laziness.

Before I started coaching with Alesha, I was dealing with a herniated disc in my lower back that made even my daily routines difficult. I had been an avid lifter and was in the best shape of my life, so the injury took a serious toll on both my physical and mental health. During that time, I had gained almost 30 pounds, which made everything feel even more discouraging. At the same time, I was going through a demanding medical program, struggling with depression, and dealing with a very inconsistent relationship with food. Some days, I couldn’t stop eating, and other days, eating felt nearly impossible. I felt stuck, frustrated, and far from the person I used to be. My experience throughout the 12 weeks taught me that change isn't linear, and that’s okay. There were good days and bad days, but I learned not to let the tougher days take over my life. At first, we focused on the basics — just getting out of bed, trying to eat, going for walks, and not isolating myself were huge steps. It was also incredibly relieving to realize I wasn’t alone in what I was going through, and that things could improve with time and consistency. By the second month, I started feeling better and was able to return to the gym while following my nutrition more consistently. I began seeing real changes, even though I still had lingering back pain and needed to modify some workouts. Instead of pushing through pain, I learned how to listen to my body. Having Alesha there made a huge difference. She not only guided me with my nutrition but also supported me mentally and introduced me to stretches that truly helped relieve my back pain. By the final month, even during Ramadan, I was able to really lock in. I had been discharged from physical therapy, was feeling significantly better, and had started losing the weight I had gained. Over these three months, I lost around 10 to 15 pounds, which has been incredibly motivating and reaffirmed that I’m moving in the right direction. One of my biggest milestones has been getting back into a consistent workout routine — something that once felt impossible. I’ve also learned how to manage my pain better and dramatically improve my eating habits. I’m eating much cleaner now, and many of the cravings I used to struggle with have faded. Some of my biggest wins go beyond just physical changes. I can look in the mirror and start to recognize the old version of myself again. I’ve found a renewed sense of purpose in my daily life. I feel more productive, more present, and a little more confident each day. The meal plans and recipes made eating enjoyable again, and the check-in calls provided a space to talk through what I was going through each week, helping me stay accountable and adjust when needed. Overall, having that level of one-on-one support was something I’d never experienced before. I had always tried to figure everything out on my own — how to train, how to eat, how to get through the day. That became overwhelming. Having both a coach and someone who felt like a genuine friend made all the difference. It totally changed my perspective on fitness and what it means to live a healthy lifestyle. I learned that my goals can evolve and that consistency matters more than perfection. Looking back, these past 12 weeks have truly changed my life for the better. I have a routine again, and more importantly, I’m starting to feel like myself. My back pain has significantly improved, and I’ve found real joy in cooking for myself again. I didn’t realize how much I had lost those self-care moments until I started getting them back. It’s been incredibly therapeutic to feel in control of my own health again. My confidence has been steadily growing, and I feel more grounded in my daily life. I’m no longer just going through the motions. I have structure, purpose, and something to work toward. Because of that, I’ve decided to continue my journey with Alesha. My next goal is to improve my strength, get as close as possible to where I was before my injury, and keep losing the weight I gained over the past year. Looking back, the only thing I wish is that I had trusted myself enough to start sooner. Aside from that, this experience has been nothing short of transformative.
