This was my first experience with health coaching and I was a bit intimidated initially. Esther put me at ease and focused on what I needed to work on. She was very good at helping me identify my goals and then with strategies to meet my goals. She is easy to talk to and the sessions were enjoyable in addition to being helpful. I would definitely recommend Esther to anyone looking for help with becoming healthier.

I lost about 15 pounds of menopause weight gain over my time working with Esther, but my greatest improvements were learning about and incorporating healthier habits into my daily routines. These changes will benefit me for the rest of my life (such as drinking more water, eating breakfast and snacks each day, making healthier food choices, finding new exercise routines that I enjoy, etc).

Working with Esther as my health coach was a truly transformative experience. The coaching sessions were extremely effective in helping me reach my health goals. One of the biggest breakthroughs for me was learning how to stick to meal planning and prep, which helped me avoid mindless snacking and emotional eating. That change alone made a huge difference in how I felt, physically and emotionally.

Esther put me at ease from our first session together. She was friendly, encouraging and a great listener. She helped me see aspects of my life and health in a new light. I highly recommend working with Esther. She will help you reach your goals.

I know the key to better health is better habits. But getting started—or staying the course—can be challenging. Esther has been a fantastic resource to help me get back to living my best life. She’s knowledgeable and thoughtful and is empowering me to trust myself again as I navigate life with a chronic disease.

Esther has been working with our 18 year old son for the past 6 months, meeting with him weekly over zoom, to teach him about healthy eating, nutrition, and exercise. The experience has been outstanding and he has learned so much and has even changed his habits and approach. She taught him about nutrition in a way that actually clicked, covering topics like cholesterol, whole grains, balanced meals, and how to make healthier choices in everyday situations. She shaped everything around dorm life (he’s a senior at boarding school), taking into consideration his limitations given that he eats primarily cafeteria food, and has a very busy student schedule. She taught him to track his food and exercise, kept him accountable, and helped him think through challenges. She did this while being supportive but also holding him to his goals. We have seen real changes in his consistency with workouts and in how he puts meals together. He also has a better understanding about his own health, and has taken ownership of the process. We are so grateful for the confidence, knowledge, and healthy habits Esther helped him build.

Esther is a pro with decades of experience working with youth and unmatched expertise helping them develop a healthy relationship with food, their bodies and lifelong health. Her collaborative approach immediately gains trust - not a small task with teens especially! Her coaching style educates and empowers, leading them to be able to make choices aligned with their goals and work towards them. In a world sending mixed and often toxic messages to young people, Esther helps kids think through their values and objectives, set small goals and achieve them—a powerful lesson in health and in life.

Esther did a great job both teaching me about food and creating a personalized plan to help me move towards healthier eating. She created lessons teaching me about ldl and hdl cholesterol. She helped me track my eating and exercise, and then looked at that data to give recommendations for moving forward. I would highly recommend Esther for other teens and young adults who are looking to improve their eating and exercise habits.

I worked with Esther for about 6 months and it was really helpful. She helped me think through and set realistic goals, break them down into achievable steps and then work towards them. It’s so easy to talk to her and she really understands teenagers, nutrition, and how to keep your body healthy.
