    I was skeptical in the beginning because the reviews looked too good to be true, but I'm now so…read morehappy I went forward with it--this program has surpassed all my expectations! Working with Bruno through the '7 Elements of Balance' has been a life-changing experience and a total transformation. In just 13 weeks, I lost 26.3 lbs and saw my BMI drop from 33.4 down to 28.7 (moving from Obese Class 1 to Overweight). While the numbers speak for themselves--including losing 4 inches off my waist--the lifestyle habits are what I value most. I've become a consistent morning runner and I actually enjoy it! I'm much more mindful and aware of what I'm eating, my water intake has improved, and for the first time, I find myself looking forward to eating vegetables. Bruno is a one-of-a-kind coach who works with you one-on-one. He is incredibly flexible, understanding, and encouraging. You can tell he truly loves what he does and cares about his clients looking and being at their best--spiritually, physically, and in all the good things. If you want a coach to help you reach your peak self, Bruno is the person to see!

    Thank you Bruno for being a great nutritional coach :) As…read moremany people, the thought of another diet was daunting but I'm happy to say that this truly was a different and enlightening Experience. I enjoyed this 6 week journey, ate very well and lost 12 pounds! So now the training wheels are off, I will never forget everything I learned and the good eating habits I now have and enjoy. Looking forward to loosing a few more pounds with my new and improved outlook on nutrition!

    Having a diet coach has honestly changed my life for the better…read more Living with lymphocytic colitis isn't easy. There are days when your body feels unpredictable, when food feels like the enemy, and when energy levels can swing all over the place. Before working with my diet coach, I spent a lot of time guessing, trying different foods, reading conflicting advice, asking ChatGPT and hoping something would finally work. Working with Leila completely changed that. She helped me understand my body instead of fighting against it. We built a structured approach to eating that supports my condition, focuses on low-FODMAP principles, and prioritizes gut healing rather than just temporary fixes. Because of that guidance, I've been able to stabilize my symptoms, improve my energy, and feel far more confident about what I'm putting into my body every day. One of the biggest changes I've noticed is in the gym. By dialing in my nutrition, especially adding fruits before my workouts for clean, quick carbs, I've had better lifts, more consistent energy, and overall stronger sessions. On top of that, I'm actually hitting my diet goals consistently, which used to feel impossible but now 200 grams of protein is nothing! Leila is a cheat code, she knows all the tricks. What I appreciate most is that this wasn't just about food, it was about building a sustainable routine and learning how to listen to my body. When you're dealing with something like lymphocytic colitis, that kind of support can make all the difference. I'm genuinely grateful for the impact she's had on my health, my performance, and my life. I will be coming back to her as my body changes. The only difference is now I am happy man and can live a normal life

She helped me get back on track in a way that felt realistic, supportive, and sustainable. Instead of quick fixes, she focused on building healthy habits that fit into my busy life as a new mom. Leila is incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly cares about her clients. She made me feel seen and supported every step of the way, and I now feel stronger, more energized, and more like myself again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a balanced and personalized approach to nutrition and wellness!

    My parents started working with Sophie in January 2024. My brother and I recognized that we needed…read morea professional to work with our aging parents because they really would not listen to us, even though we are both adult professionals with families of our own. (If you know, you know.) Our mom needed help to manage her pre-diabetes condition and our dad needed support to understand proper nutrition and balance. Both needed to exercise more regularly yet carefully since they are both in their 80s. The past year has been a journey for my parents...accepting new ideas, establishing different eating and exercise patterns and modifying lifelong habits. We are super proud of them for what they have been able to accomplish because it has not been easy to modify those lifelong ideas, habits and patterns. But they are doing it. None of their health progress could have happened without Sophie's patient and gentle guidance. She speaks English and Mandarin with them and understands our culture, diet and our parents' generation. She respects them but also challenges them. And they listen to her! My parents work with Sophie on being mindful of their food choices, as well as mobility and strength training. She gives my parents the support and inspiration to keep moving and motivation to take care of themselves physically and mentally. Sophie is a gift. We are very grateful to her and how she has impacted our parents' lives in such a positive way.

She is conversational and can talk about almost anything. One conversation, we ended up talking about our feet - and how to cope with bunions. She gave topnotch advice about what type of shoes, sneakers to wear, and about how to stretch your toes to give each toe space to move, and the importance of practicing being barefoot at home. She has had a lot of personal experiences with diets, health, and general well-being, and has a healthy attitude in questioning established norms that actually do not help, but hinder optimal health. She is as knowledgable as she is enjoyable to work with!
