Working with Emily has been amazing! She is so knowledgeable and I am so thankful for the information SHE has shared with me.
I was on birth control for at least 12 years (possibly longer) and I experienced everything under the sun in terms of side effects. Heavy periods to shortened periods over time, horrible migraines, bad cramping, frequent UTIs for many many years to name a few. I was put on birth control because I had very irregular periods and birth control was the quick fix that my doctor at the time suggested and as a teenager I didn’t know any other option. I trusted what the doctor was recommending. We went through several different pill options before finding the one I stayed on.
About 4 years ago I switched obgyn doctors. My new doctor wanted to do a blood test without birth control in my system to check my levels so I was off of it for about 1 month. My emotions were SO heightened that my relationship was suffering. I was angry and emotional for no reason and eventually I couldn’t wait to go back on the pill so that I could stop feeling that way.
So once my husband and I got married and discussed going off of birth control to start to build a family, his coworker mentioned Golden Wellness and how it changed her life post BC. I started working with Emily 1 month before going off and she helped me prepare myself and adjust my habits so the transition off BC would be seamless. My experience with The Golden Wellness program has helped me learn about my body and to listen to what it needs. I no longer experience migraines and I am paying more attention to easing stress and what I put into my body. And also happy to report that I have had NO major mood swings. My first period off of BC was also symptom free thanks to the adjustments I made to my lifestyle. I now prioritize my feelings and my health over everything else so I can get back to a happy and healthy life. Thank you Emily! Your program has changed my life. I would suggest this program to any woman no matter where you are in your health journey. It is most definitely worth it!

I would highly recommend diving into the Golden Wellness program with Emily. The tips, information, and protocols I have learned will help me improve my overall wellness forever. Emily is very easy to talk to and provides practical advice on how to incorporate lifestyle changes without feeling overwhelmed. I had just stopped birth control (after a decade) at the time I started the program with Emily. Having Emily's support through this transition was so reassuring! This is a wonderful program for any female who wants to learn more about her cycle and how to support her body.

“I truly believe Emily and her program are part of the reason I have a beautiful, baby girl today.”
I came to Emily with several hormonal and gut issues while also seeing fertility doctors regarding trying to get pregnant with pcos. Throughout my time working with her we overhauled my diet and started incorporating cycle awareness practices. Within a month I was pregnant naturally. I continued working with Emily throughout my first and second trimesters. We discussed how to eat while pregnant to avoid morning sickness and other issues while getting the best nutrition possible. I am beyond grateful to her for her knowledge and support.

I struggled with painful periods and other hormonal issues for as long as I can remember and had little understanding of how to support my hormonal cycle. I had seen so many ob gyns in the past that would only recommend birth control to alleviate all of my symptoms and that was such a red flag for me, after following Emily on Instagram for a few months I learned that there were so many other ways I could support my body. There was no doubt in me that working with Emily was the best choice. She is extremely knowledgeable in menstrual cycle health and makes it really easy to understand. Before working with Em, I often felt like I was starving in between meals, had a hard time staying asleep throughout the night, and had all the painful period symptoms. Em helped me work through creating healthy eating habits, prioritizing my well-being with a busy lifestyle, understanding the different phases of my menstrual cycle and how to fully nourish my body to support my hormones. Since working with Emily, I have so much more energy throughout the day, experience zero to little period symptoms, and feel fully confident in the food and health choices I make every day. Learning how to listen to my body and fully support it has changed my life in so many amazing ways and I recommend Emily's program to all women!!

I would recommend Em to ANY and EVERY woman in my life!
After almost a decade of being on birth control and struggling with painful cysts and painful periods, Em made my transition to being off birth control (and several acne products) SO much simpler than I thought possible. Not only are the research and guides she provides super helpful, but her energetic, caring personality is so contagious! Her coaching program will make you appreciate your natural cycles and your body’s incredible intuition!!

I absolutely loved working with Emily in her 1:1 3 month hormone health program. Emily is a wealth of knowledge and provides a safe, non-judgmental environment to discuss hormone health. I have learned so much from her and have made impactful life changes that are sustainable. A bonus, I have an autoimmune disease, and my flares have become less noticeable with the changes we have made in my daily life!

“After a few months I got the hang of it and started getting my period monthly and on schedule.”
I started working with Em after winning 3 sessions from Barre Body & Soul's Galentine's Day celebration (almost a year ago!). It seemed like fate as when the prize was read out before the winner, I thought to myself 'that's mine' and 2 seconds later.. it was my name called. I was going through a lot of changes and challenges in my life and looking for holistic guidance. What Em and I mostly ended up working on was my menstrual cycle. It had always been troublesome and all over the place. While cycle syncing was difficult at first, Em was always encouraging and offered help and tips to make the process smoother. After a few months, I got the hang of it and started getting my period monthly and on a schedule. My PMS symptoms improved and I got new recipes and a better connection to my body out of it. I still use the practice and working on some of the goals we started on even after I've completed my work with this strong, kind, understanding and enthusiastic coach. I'm so happy my name was called that day and the connection I've made with such a knowledgeable and amazing human.

During my time with Emily I was able to do something unimaginable. I was able to take control of my period instead of my period taking control of me. During my healing process, I was also able to fix digestive issues that I’ve dealt with for over 20 years and calm my eczema flair ups. I’m so happy I took a chance with Emily!

“I cannot say enough great things about Em as a human and coach.”
When I initially reached out to Em I was nervous. Nervous to spend money, commit to something new, change my behaviors, and step out of my comfort zone. After I had my first consultation all of those fears melted away and I knew something life changing was about to happen. 3 months and 6 sessions later, I am off the birth control pill and am avoiding pregnancy naturally. I was on the pill for over 6 years and the transition off, was nothing short of flawless. Aside from successfully getting off the pill, I shed 8 lbs. effortlessly, have glowing skin, and my mood has changed (for the better!) tremendously. I cannot say enough great things about Em as a human and coach. Do your health a favor and confront your fears knowing Em will be with you every step of the way.

“Thanks for working with me!”
I would describe Emily as smart, energetic, astute, creative, empathetic, and helpful. I would recommend Emily to anyone who wants to heal their body, and live a healthier life. Thanks for working with me!

Em's compassion and spirit make her an amazing coach. Her insight, patience, and heart make her an invaluable asset to anyone looking to live their best life. She uses your own personal goals and abilities to formulate a holistic plan that works just for you.

“Emily is a very good listener.”
She created a workable program that included keeping a detailed food journal, a supplement regime targeting inflammation and building my immune system. She also helped me find ways to reduce my stress level and begin to balance my hormones. After our sessions she would read through my food journal and filter through our conversation. She would then do research that was introduced at our next meeting. She suggested new foods into my diet that I really love. Em would suggest small changes that culminated into a body that is no longer covered with Eczema.

“You are simply amazing!!!”
Where do I begin? As you are aware, I have struggled my whole life with my weight and unhealthy eating habits. After working with you as our photographer for our wedding last year, I knew you were the perfect match for me as my health coach. You have been very patient and kind towards me, as I expressed my concerns. The moment we spoke, I felt very comfortable talking to you about all the things going on in my life that impacted these awful habits. You are extremely knowledgeable about what I am trying to achieve in my life. Each session we concentrated on a new goal and how to go about achieving these goals, and each week I crushed them!! You made me see what strength I really have and how to overcome the obstacles to attain balance in my life. Even though we have only been working together for 3 months, I feel you have been apart of my life for a long time. Not only are you my health coach, but also a life long friend. Thank you so very much for standing by my side and in helping me see the importance in taking caring of my needs, as well as everyone else in my life. I can't wait to see what the future beings for us both and I want you to be there every step of the way. You are simply amazing!!!

At the point that I started working with Em I had just stopped eating animal meat, I was in the beginnings of transitioning my business model and I was lacking motivation in general. Everyday life and stressors had gotten the best of me and I forgot how to make myself a priority. I met with her for about 6 months. Emily is extremely easy to talk to. She is empathetic, yet firm in her advice. Throughout our talks each session she was able to identify my accomplishments as well as assist me in creating new goals to sustainably attain. She would share recipes, pertinent websites, and lots of other bits of info to assist me in my wellness journey. In my opinion, it was the catalyst for me getting my motivation back, eating better and quite frankly feeling great. I highly recommend Emily as a Health Coach.

"I am so grateful for my experience with Em."
I first came to Golden Wellness because I felt stuck; I had no motivation to take care of myself in the ways I knew I needed to, especially when it came to my health and diet. I was starting to feel like a lost cause… But, my fist session with Em immediately help me take a step back and feel like I could tackle my life stressors one-by-one while starting to create healthy habits for myself that could become routine. Throughout our time together, Em coached me and helped me feel like I can be whole, healthy, and balanced if I start with self-compassion – and from there the healing begins. So many recipes, stillness techniques, exercise motivations, and mantras that Em gave me are still a part of my daily routine. I am so grateful for my experience with Em – she truly helped me get over and out of some difficult times, held me accountable in the most encouraging of ways, and guided me to have the strength to take care of myself the way I’ve always wanted to but couldn’t ever quite get there on my own.

“I felt completely supported by Em though this learning process, and I could not have asked for a better person to guide me.”
Four months ago a friend of mine told me about women hormones and how our hormonal cycles influence our daily life, not just when we get our period. She recommended me the Golden Wellness Instagram and I signed up for a discovery call with Em. I did not know what to expect but she explained the way her program worked, and I signed up because I was curious, and I wanted to learn more. Through the three months that we saw each other I learned so much about my cycle and different things that I can do related to daily habits, sun exposure, blue light exposure, food, and herbs that are beneficial depending on what stage of the cycle you are. I loved the fact that I had “homework” or things to work in the time between sessions, and that way I experienced changes in my body and my daily life. Also, she sent me all the theoretical information after each session, that way I didn’t have to take notes, could focus solely on learning and I would still have the information, plus stuff directly related to me.
I am really happy with the program. Normally, we are not taught much about our cycles, except that we have our period once a month. I loved learning about what happens at each stage, not just hormonally but also how that affects our moods and our state. I felt completely supported by Em though this learning process, and I could not have asked for a better person to guide me.
