Former Orangetheory Head Coach turned full-time nutrition coach helping women 40+ fuel their bodies, stabilize blood sugar, and finally feel strong, energized, and confident again.

I built Formula 180 for women who are tired of confusing diet trends and want a simple, sustainable way to feel their best.

For years, I coached inside Orangetheory Fitness and served as Head Coach at one of the largest studios in Georgia. I watched women show up consistently, work hard, and do everything they were told to do.

But behind the effort, I kept seeing the same frustration. The scale stalled. Energy dipped. Confidence faded. And the advice they were getting almost always boiled down to: eat less and do more.

Why This Became Personal

 

This work is personal for me.

I’ve spent my life surrounded by women I love: my mom, sister, wife, daughter, and family. I’ve seen how diet culture can create stress, shame, and a constant feeling of being “behind” in your own body.

And I also watched how quickly health can change when metabolic disease and unstable blood sugar go unchecked.

That is why I am so passionate about helping women build a sustainable approach to food and training that protects their long-term health, not just their short-term goals.

The Formula 180 Mission

 

My mission is simple:

Help women over 40 fuel their bodies in a way that supports energy, strength, confidence, and longevity.

No extremes.
No trends.
No quick fixes.

Just a method that works in real life.

My Approach

 

At Formula 180, we focus on:

Sustainable Nutrition

Learning how to build meals with protein, fat, and carbs that stabilize blood sugar and support your metabolism.

Training you can recover from

Strength and movement that fits your season of life, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Small daily wins

That’s the heart of 100 Days of 1%. Consistency over perfection.

Daily coaching & real accountability

You are not left to figure this out alone. You get support, clarity, and follow-through.
