Hi, I'm Nikki! I'm a Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Certified Nutrition Coach with a passion for helping people create realistic, sustainable change in their health and lives. My path to coaching has been anything but one-dimensional. Before entering the health and wellness space full-time, I worked as a Speech Therapist, where I spent years coaching and supporting parents as they navigated communication challenges with their children. That experience shaped the way I coach today: with empathy, patience, and a deep respect for how complex behavior change can be.

For the past 18 years, I've been immersed in the fitness industry, working with individuals from all walks of life. Over time, I've seen firsthand that true health isn't built through extremes or quick fixes. It comes from consistency, self-awareness, and a sustainable approach that fits into real life.

I'm also a mom of two, and like many of my clients, I've spent much of my life navigating challenges with weight and body image, especially after the birth of my children. That lived experience is a big part of why I do what I do. I understand how frustrating and defeating it can feel to chase unrealistic standards or feel disconnected from your body. My approach is rooted in helping you move beyond that cycle and toward a place of confidence, balance, and self-trust.

As your coach, my goal is to support you in building a positive, sustainable relationship with food, movement, and your body. I focus on individualized guidance, practical strategies, and meeting you where you are so you can create habits that only improve your health, but also enhance your quality of life. This is about progress over perfection, and learning how to care for yourself in a way that feels supportive, loving, and lasting.

I am a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach with over 20 years of experience, dedicated to helping individuals cultivate well-being and optimal wellness. My own journey with chronic pain and chronic conditions has shaped my empathetic, client-centered approach and deepened my commitment to supporting others through their challenges.

Life is a winding path, often filled with discomfort, uncertainty, stress, and times of feeling burned out or stuck. I believe that exploring this journey with openness leads to insight, growth, and lasting change. Having learned to live more holistically and with greater fulfillment myself, I aim to help others do the same.

I walk alongside clients as they pursue resilience, balance, and joy—guided by the belief that everyone has the potential to live a meaningful, healthy life. Integrating my background in social work, personal health experience, and coaching expertise, I use a collaborative, co-creative approach to support sustainable progress and each person’s own definition of optimal well-being.

Hi, I’m Ashleigh—a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Exercise Physiologist with nearly 20 years of experience supporting people on their health journeys.

I’ve had the privilege of working with clients from all walks of life, from those recovering from heart conditions to those simply looking to feel stronger, sleep better, or manage stress in a busy world. My approach blends the science of movement, nutrition, sleep, and mindset with genuine empathy and encouragement.

I believe wellness isn’t about doing more—it’s about finding what truly works for you and creating space for small, meaningful steps that last. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you reconnect with your body’s wisdom, and support you in building a lifestyle that feels balanced, confident, and alive.

I’m passionate about helping women reconnect with themselves and discover what health and wellness can truly look like in their own lives—mind, body, and spirit.

My journey into this work has been shaped by personal experience—navigating genetically high cholesterol, caring for my father through multiple health challenges, and committing to a plant-based lifestyle. These moments deepened my understanding of how important it is to make intentional, informed choices that support both our health and our lives.

As a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and functional nutrition student, I understand the unique transitions women face—especially in seasons like perimenopause and post-menopause. But more than that, I understand what it feels like when something within you begins to shift.

My Christian faith is at the foundation of how I live and how I coach. I believe that true wellness is a God-given gift—and that we are called to care for ourselves in a way that honors both our bodies and our lives. My approach is rooted in compassion, encouragement, and helping you renew your mind so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Whether you’re seeking more balance, more energy, or a deeper sense of purpose, I’m here to walk alongside you.

You’re not meant to do this alone—and you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin.

Hi there! I'm Colleen, an Integrative Health Coach with a deeply rooted passion for helping others discover and live out their full potential. 

With nearly a decade of experience as a critical care nurse, 4.5 years of active-duty service in the U.S. Navy, and a Master's in Human Performance, I have a strong understanding of the difference between surviving and thriving. I've been there for people in some of their hardest moments, and alongside high performers pushing toward new levels of growth and well-being. 

As your health coach, my goal is to help you realize your potential and take meaningful steps to living your most thriving, joyful, and fulfilled life. My approach to coaching is built on the belief that you are the expert of your life. I’m your “guide on the side,” here to help you uncover your ideal vision and create strategies that bring it to life- ones that align with your values, feel authentic to you, and empower you to feel in control of your health and wellness. 

I am so looking forward to and unbelievably grateful for the opportunity to walk beside you as you pursue an extraordinary, beautiful, whole version of you. 

What if your body was never the problem?

What if Type 2 Diabetes—the diagnosis that may have felt like a verdict—was actually an invitation?

An invitation to return to yourself. To the wisdom already living within you. To a relationship with your body that was never truly lost—only waiting to be remembered.

My name is Sheila Certeza Asare. I'm a Registered Nurse, National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach, and Whole-Person Wellbeing & Life Coach.

For more than 30 years, I've had the privilege of caring for people through some of life's most vulnerable moments. From the tiniest babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to adults navigating complex health conditions, one truth continued to reveal itself to me:

The body is always moving toward life.

Given the right conditions, it already knows the way.

That understanding became deeply personal when I, too, was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.

Years ago, I was told that insulin was inevitable. Today, it isn't. Not because I discovered a perfect diet or pushed harder, but because, little by little, I began relating to my body differently.

That changed more than my blood sugar.

It changed my relationship with myself.

Over the years, I've come to believe that lasting wellbeing begins with relationship—our relationship with our bodies, our thoughts, our emotions, our stories, our relationships, our environment, and ultimately, our relationship with ourselves.

At the heart of my work is a simple belief:

We are whole. Fully, wholly, always.

I don't believe our work is to become someone else. I believe it is to gently reconnect with the wisdom, capacity, and truth that have been within us all along.

Type 2 Diabetes may be the reason we meet, but it is rarely where our work ends. More often, it becomes the doorway back to your body, back to your own rhythm, back to trusting yourself, and back to living in a way that reflects who you truly are.

This understanding became the foundation of The NEST—a whole-person coaching philosophy rooted in the belief that wellbeing is not something we earn. It is something we continually return to.

Within our coaching partnership, I don't replace your healthcare team, nor do I tell you what your life should look like. Instead, I offer a space where you can slow down, become curious, and listen more deeply to yourself—a space where you are witnessed, supported, compassionately challenged, and trusted to discover what wellbeing looks like in your own life.

Wherever you are in your journey, you are welcome exactly as you are.

You don't need to become someone else before you begin.

You don't need to have all the answers.

You don't need to earn your wellbeing.

You are already whole.

If this way of thinking resonates with you, I'd love to meet you.
