Hi, I’m Stephanie Hodges.

One question I'm always asking is: What does it mean to be truly WELL?

Wellness isn't about following a quick-fix diet plan, killer exercise program, or the latest self-help program; it's a holistic lifelong journey encompassing body, soul, and spirit.

I spent many years working as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor, but was always frustrated I couldn’t help my clients more… it was clear that exercise was only one piece of the puzzle!

From my years working in the fitness industry, full-time ministry, and all the side projects and research I've invested in along the way, I can tell you there is no "one-size-fits-all" approach when it comes to wellness.

You'll only figure out what works for you through practice, learning, and experience.

I have a Master's in Nutrition and Exercise Science and obtained a number of certifications over the years. The most recent is Health & Wellness Coach training from Duke and becoming a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC).

My passion is to

  • challenge and support individuals on their unique path to optimal health

  • help people feel confident in who they are

  • move beyond physical habits to find holistic health for body, soul, and spirit

My Coaching Approach

Here’s what the coaching process looks like

  1. Start with a free Discovery Call to determine if coaching is a good fit.

  2. Talk through your unique goals and map out a plan to reach them.

  3. Meet weekly or bi-weekly for accountability, coaching, and support.

  4. For weight loss and nutrition goals: you’ll receive customized macros and coaching on how to balance your food intake to achieve weight loss and health goals.

  5. For weight loss and fitness goals: you’ll receive a customized workout plan each month.

All plans are custom-tailored based on your goals and priorities!

  • Whole-person holistic health approach

  • Partnership with a client-driven agenda

  • Habit change for long-term results

  • Customized meal plans and workout routines
