Lucy’s Health Coaching

As a lifelong athlete, Ive always been exposed to knowledge about health, wellness, and balance. Still, maintaining my career and lifestyle left me feeling very unbalanced. Lucy’s guidance helped me realize a major source of my lack of satisfaction with my health, and it was far simpler than I would have guessed on my own. I thought a health coach was something like a nutritionist or personal trainer, but she showed me that those areas of health are only secondary to the sort of lifestyle insight a health coach can provide.
Coffee, and caffeinated beverages, are so prolific in our society that I completely took for granted the idea that my health could be affected by my caffeine intake. My moods were hard to control, and I used to feel overwhelming stress and aggression at the smallest problems. After a bit of good coaching, I was able to let go of this seemingly critical step in my morning routine. I have felt an incredibly positive change in my energy levels, in my ability to handle Monday mornings, and my ability to focus surprisingly increased.
Although I have a good understanding of human physiology from living an athletic lifestyle, I had no knowledge of caffeine’s relationship to the kidneys, the adrenal glands, or even what the condition known as «adrenal fatigue» was. Lucy clued me in, and inspired me to care for these bodily systems much better. A regular nutritionist, athletic trainer, or therapist may not have picked up that my stress was related to my coffee intake. But with Lucy’s Holistic approach, she was able to look at my lifestyle as a whole to help me with my stress.
Looking back, I cant believe I was living in a chemically induced state of stress all the time, and believing it was perfectly normal! I owe it to Lucy for helping me understand how caffeine was affecting my personal lifestyle, and experience in knowing I can get along fine without it.

Lucy is chalk full of helpful and practical knowledge. She understands the psychology behind making our food choices and how to build a program that fits your lifestyle. She knows what works. I ended up deciding that vegetarian was the best choice for me, even though I do have some fish on rare occasions. It’s worked great for me as I’ve lost weight and am living a healthier lifestyle. It wouldn’t have happened without Lucy. If you are serious about your goals, Lucy will help you get there.

My dearest Lucy where do i begin… I came to Lucy almost two years ago as a party girl who wanted to make changes without giving up the fun. At first I was apprehensive to tell her about my lifestyle but once I did she was totally understanding, she made me feel comfortable and never placed judgement. She showed me how to party smart, I learned how to prepare my body before I went out to party, and ultimately I felt SOOO much better after a long night/​morning! I really know myself and my body so much better after working with Lucy. I am able to tell what my body needs, which really has been an amazing gift! I don’t need to follow a specific diet or feel overwhelmed by all the food trends out there. If im interested in something I try it to see if its for me. She made me realize that just because something is healthy doesn’t mean that its necessarily right for your individual body. Lucy’s advice and knowledge are invaluable, she speaks alot from personal experience, so her suggestions really work! Its funny to think back at myself before i met her, now I’m known to my friends and coworkers as the «healthy» one, and its Lucy who put me on this wonderful journey.
Lucy was more and is still more than just a health couch to me, she is a friend, someone who listens with compassion and truly cares about the struggles you’re going through, whether they’re food related or not. She supported me as I was applying to graduate school and encouraged me to get after my goals. Emails from her and sessions with her always leave me feeling inspired and so fulfilled. I realized how hard I was on myself, and even that part of me was scared of success. I think life coach is a more suitable title for her, because she truly has contributed and changed my life for the better. I consider Lucy a dear friend, and Im so grateful that our paths have crossed. I continue to use the tools I’ve gained from our work together everyday!

I Love Lucy. Yeah, I said it. But seriously, Lucy has changed my life, for the better. When I first came to Lucy, I had just been through Cancer treatment, and my body was in shambles. I had a poor diet and had no energy to get through the day. After a couple sessions with Lucy, she taught me what foods I should be eating, how to prepare them, and really be focused on how I feel after I eat different foods. She isn’t just a simple nutritionist, she also helps you through life. She really understands your struggles, with food and life. I am now a better person for going to Lucy, and have taken her suggestions and am a so much better person for it.

I’ve known Lucy for the last three years and she has changed my life. I worked with her for several months as she came on board as the nutritionist consultant for Liberation 7week boot camp programs and she has become a dear friend to me and my family.
There’s so much confusing dogma out there about food. When I met her I was so confused– raw this, Paleo that. But what about life that gets in the way? Everything she gave me made a real difference and is so simple and drama free.
I had intense weight and health goals and even though I had a full time job, performing artist, worked out, went out on the weekends, living typical Nyc life– she showed me how to THINK of what works for my body. She didn’t give me recipes but tools, and most importantly, her gentle guidance and the results I started to experience genuinely inspired me. Instead of waking up and fiending for coffee or downing a whole bar of chocolate on the time of my month or forget about calorie counting or dieting which was out of the question for my lifestyle, I finally felt free and a friend to my body. My coworkers would always look at me in amazement every day when I ate my homemade lunch and say– how do you do that? Well when you are inspired and know what/​how/​when you put in your body makes a difference — it’s fun! Becoming my own passion project has absolutely altered my life. I have significantly clearer skin since my hormones are now level (nightmare after getting off both control when we met) I sleep easily and wake up regularly. I choose to give myself peace and time to myself in my schedule. Im definitely not perfect– and with Lucy you understand there’s no such thing! I’m a better person when I am in rythm with my body and Lucy gave me so much more than that. I highly recommend her services.

I’m not exaggerating when I say Lucy changed my life. I am an eating disorder recoverer who had had a rather severe relapse into binge eating disorder. When I found Lucy 2 years ago, I was binging nightly, drinking heavily, and severely depressed. I worked with Lucy for several months to really explore my relationship with food, alcohol, and the areas in my life where I wasn’t being «fed». After several months I was in a much better place. I understood my motivations behind binging and felt much more capable of making conscious choices when it came to my health, both mental and physical.
I still meet with Lucy occasionally, when I need additional tools to keep me on the path to health and happiness, but I cannot recommend Lucy enthusiastically enough. She is someone you can really talk to, without feeling judged. I felt that i could be 100% honest, and that she was always compassionate and realistic. Whether you are in a recovery situation like me, or you just want to learn how to treat your body and with more respect, Lucy is a fantastic holistic health coach. I have been to therapists, counselors, nutritionists, and meditation coaches, and Lucy helped me more than all of them combined.
All the love for Lucy’s Health coaching.

Both my boyfriend and I have tried Lucy. She knows a little about everything and has helped us get our eating in order, especially since the holidays just knocked us for a loop. Even though she specializes in health coaching she also knows a lot about working out, yoga and running. I actually met her through my boyfriends program where he was mainly doing lifting and conditioning… she was acting as a consultant to help folks stay focused. I would totally recomend a visit if your looking to sort out what is keeping you back from your health goals.
