Certified Master Health Coaching with Relentless Courage
When life gets crazy and responsibilities at home and work pile one on top of the other, it’s easy to let our health, fitness and personal goals slip. The years go by and we don’t even realize how much our health has declined or how far we've gotten from our greater purpose.
But for most of us, there comes a time when we realize things must change. A time when gaining control over our body takes on new urgency. Our goals do matter and they deserve some attention even if we don't know what they are.
For some, it’s a scary health diagnosis. For others it’s watching a loved one struggle with their own health problems. And for others still, it’s when they finally realize they’ve spent so many years taking care of others, that they neglected to take care of themselves.
Maybe you've reached a point where you know there must be more. There must be more to do, more to see, more to give.
When it’s time to turn things around and start a new program, however, it can be difficult to know what to do next. And staying motivated is hard — especially if you try to do it all on your own.
That’s where the coach comes in.

How to engineer your best life — and keep it that way.
Master health coaching and personal accountability.
We meet you where you are
You tell us what you want to do. We’ll help you do it. First, your coach will take the time to learn about your lifestyle, needs, and specific goals.
Proven strategies to help you reach any goal you want
You may have tried multiple diet and workout programs in the past. And you’ve concluded that they simply don’t work in the long run. Instead of the all-or-nothing dieting approach, this is a sustainable, practice-based approach to build healthy habits into your life, one day, one decision at a time. The result? You’ll gain the skills and the confidence to reach your goals.
Sometimes all we need is something new and exciting to get us fired up about life again! We love adventure at Relentless Courage and have helped clients prepare for anything from weddings, the wedding of a child to dream vacations in the Bahamas.
Stay accountable and consistent with professional health coaching from Relentless Courage
We live and breathe this stuff every day, and love helping people like you become fitter, stronger, healthier, happier and more successful than ever.
Whatever obstacles arise, We'll work together to overcome them by modifying your program or offering new solutions. In the end, know you'll be supported every step of the way, no matter what life throws at you.
Whatever obstacles arise, We'll work together to overcome them by modifying your program or offering new solutions. In the end, know you'll be supported every step of the way, no matter what life throws at you.
Build the habits you need to look and feel better for life. (Here’s how it works.)
Small yet powerful practices to improve everyday life
You'll work together with your coach to create and practice healthy habits across every aspect of your life, from sleep and stress-management to movement and mindfulness. These new habits will help you feel more calm, confident, and prepared for each day—no matter what life throws at you.
Professional coaching and detailed progress checking
You'll meet with your coach for 30 minutes up to four times a month over Google Meet. There is also a thoughtful email follow up.
Is health coaching right for you?
Coaching with Relentless Courage is for you if:
You are looking for more out of life. If you don't have a goal we can help you set one!
This program uses actions from five key categories to help people lose weight and body fat, build physical strength and confidence, get results that last, and get off the motivation roller-coaster once and for all. You won't get a crazy diet or exercise program to follow; instead, we'll build habits that will get you results that last forever.
You’re tired of “quick fix” programs and are willing to dedicate time to getting in shape the sustainable way
If you’ve tried something before and “failed” — or just can’t stick with it — know that you’re not alone. After all, most training and nutrition programs fail 98 percent of the time without support. Diet and exercise fads come and go. That’s why we don’t follow fads. Instead, You'll learn doable daily actions that are designed to fit into a busy lifestyle. Bottom line: coaching here will help you make fitness and nutrition a part of your life, without it taking over.
You want a professional to hold you accountable and keep you consistent through the program
We work closely with clients to help them set and reach goals big and small, no matter what else is going on in their lives. You've probably got enough to worry about; let's team up to take care of the details so you don’t have to on your own.
At Relentless Courage we
help people set and reach their goals.
Unconditional Positive Regard
Unconditional positive regard is at the core of coaching with Relentless Courage. When we work with clients we always hold them in unconditional positive regard no matter what they bring to the table. As coaches, our job is to hear what our clients have to say and help them move in a way that gets them closer to their goals, period.
Client-Centered Coaching
Our coaches don’t make decisions for our clients or tell them what to do. We help our clients make decisions for themselves and grow in ways that they choose. We do provide guidance and support along the way. That is client-centered coaching.
"Self-deployed strategies put a greater "burden" on the individual but, once mastered, can in theory be applied across domains. Other-deployed strategies, in contrast, may be easier for a policymaker (or coach) to carry out but do not build the capacity of individuals to exercise self-control (or self-knowledge). Optimal strategies depend not only on their likelihood of success but also on their ease of execution." Beyond Willpower: Strategies for Reducing Failures of Self-Control; Angela L. Duckworth, Katherine L. Milkman, and David Laibson

The GSPA Model
GSPA stands for goals, skills, practices and actions. It’s the way we start with something big and break it down into smaller parts. Those smaller actions add up over time to help you reach your goals.
Outcome vs Behavior Goals
Outcome goals are the big things we think about. Our coaches have worked with clients who wanted to lose weight, have more energy, be more organized, reset their priorities, get ready for that big event, be better leaders, get healthier and take back control of their life. We’ll work to create SMART outcome goals through conversation and assessments. Then, we’ll dial in our GSPA process to create behavior goals that add up to big things.
