I came to Jason in a panic right before Thanksgiving. I’ve lost weight this year and I didn’t want to ‘undo’ anything, but my Mom’s green bean casserole is a tradition in our family. I was terrified to even enjoy it because I thought it meant I was ‘falling off.’ Jason didn’t shame me or tell me to avoid it. Instead, he helped me slow down, be intentional, and actually savor the tradition without guilt. We even recreated a lighter version together, and my family loved it just as much as the original. This was the first holiday where I felt in control, not restricted — and honestly, I enjoyed the day more than I have in years.

Jason doesn’t sugarcoat things, but he doesn’t judge either. He helped me stay consistent with small changes that didn’t feel impossible. I’ve lost weight, my blood pressure is down, and I feel like myself again.

It’s only been 2 months but what has stood out the most was how honest and relatable he is. He’s been through the stuff himself, so he gets it. His coaching has made the process feel less overwhelming, and for the first time I’m not constantly starting over.
