Helping Busy Women Feel Like Themselves Again

You're juggling work, family, responsibilities, appointments, meals, and everyone else's needs. Somewhere along the way, your own health slipped to the bottom of the list.

Maybe your body feels different than it used to.

You're more tired than you expected to be.

Your energy isn't what it once was.

The weight won't budge.

Your digestion feels off.

Your hormones seem to have changed the rules.

You've tried doing what used to work, but now it feels confusing, frustrating, and exhausting.

You deserve to feel good in your body. You deserve to have energy for the people and things you love. And you deserve a way of caring for yourself that fits your life instead of asking you to put your life on hold.

How I Can Help

There's no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness because no two women have the same life, schedule, goals, or challenges.

That's why we start with you.

Before we talk about meal plans, movement, or healthy habits, I want to understand your story—what's working, what's not, what feels overwhelming, and what you truly want for your health.

From there, we'll create a personalized plan that fits your life, not someone else's.

Together we'll simplify wellness by focusing on small, meaningful changes that build lasting results over time.

For me, your journey is personal!

After stepping away from a 20-year chef career and navigating my own season of postpartum overwhelm, low energy, and a high-cholesterol wake-up call, I realized how many women need more than another diet. Now I help busy women rebuild wellness in a way that is simple, supportive, and realistic so they can feel better in their bodies and lives.

What I Believe

I believe taking care of yourself is not selfish. It is one of the best things you can do for yourself and the people you love.

I believe wellness does not have to be complicated. Small, consistent choices can create meaningful changes over time.

I believe healthy food should be enjoyable, movement should make you feel strong, and your wellness routine should fit your real life.

I believe your body deserves kindness and support through every season of life.

And most importantly, I believe you don't have to do this alone.

Hi, I'm Jess

 A Life I Loved... Until Life Changed

For more than 20 years, I worked as a chef in restaurants, catering, and as a private chef. It was fast-paced, demanding, and all-consuming. I loved the creativity, the people, and the joy that food brought to others.

Then I became a mom.

After my first child, I scaled back. After my second, I knew something had to change. I wanted to be present for my family and not miss the little moments.

So after 20 years, I stepped away from the career I had built to focus on the one that mattered most—being a mom.

Finding My Way Back

Motherhood was one of the greatest gifts of my life, but somewhere along the way, I stopped taking care of myself.

Like so many women, I put everyone else's needs first. I felt tired, foggy, and disconnected from my body. Even as a chef, I struggled to make my own health a priority.

Around that same time, my family's health journey changed my perspective. Watching my mom battle ovarian cancer and later learning I had high cholesterol made me realize I couldn't keep putting myself last.

I wanted a simple, realistic way to care for myself—not another diet.

When I committed to a structured wellness program, everything began to change.

Within weeks, I had more energy. Over time, I lost the baby weight, improved my cholesterol, and felt healthier than I had in years.

But the biggest change wasn't what I saw in the mirror.

It was finally feeling like myself again.

Why I Do What I Do

That journey changed more than my health—it changed my purpose.

Today, I help busy women, especially moms, simplify wellness through nourishing food, realistic habits, movement, and supportive coaching.

As a chef, wellness coach, and Lagree instructor, I know that healthy living isn't about perfection. It's about creating simple routines that fit your real life.

Because when you take care of yourself, you're better able to care for the people you love.

You deserve to feel strong, energized, and confident.

And you don't have to do it alone.

Livier Serrano

After working with Jess I now workout 3 days a week, full body strength training! I lost another 5lb since finishing The First 30! I'm 165lb now, down 20lb! I feel so much better, I've kicked some bad habits around food, I'm so much stronger too and I just feel like I have better tools to keep moving forward all around. I appreciate all the support she's given me!
