About Me

Hi- I'm Linda, and I was inspired to start my company, T.H.A.W.-THE HEALTHY AGING WEIGHT.

- to walk with women on their own journey in health and wellness.

I have spent the last few years of my career as a primary care nurse practitioner sorting through the stories and struggles of women in the weight loss battle. These women, these stories...they are my inspiration. COVID lockdown, menopause and the busyness of life have been factors for many women when it comes to weight gain. I also had my own experience of gaining weight during the menopause years. During my career I saw many changes in this industry with the focus on injectable medications, surgery and fad diets. I found that many of my patients wanted to try medication management but who was going to walk with them to make the lifestyle changes that they needed for longterm, sustainable success?

I started to do research on myself. I collected data and and listened to videos, podcasts and read books. I found that most evidence based research was consistent and simple; eat a healthy diet, exercise, drink water and get sleep. Sounds simple, right? I guess there is a little more to it than that but the results paid off. I lost 20-25 pounds in about 3 months and kept it off. Bonus... my husband did too!!

I know it’s hard for women at any age to lose weight and keep it off. It’s even harder post
menopause. As a busy wife, mom and Nana I have had to work hard to balance my faith, family, work and friends.

I’m very passionate about what I do and I feel called to serve women to help them find a way to make new habits of healthy living as well.
As a coach I hope to inspire and motivate YOU as we work through your personalized plan. We will discover how you can find THE HEALTHY AGING WEIGHT for you!

ROOTED IN FAITH

My journey — personally and professionally — is deeply grounded in my faith in God. I believe true healing happens when we care for the body, mind, and soul as one. This business, this calling, is an extension of the purpose God placed on my life: to serve, to uplift, and to remind women of their beauty and dignity.

Whether I’m creating a plan, offering encouragement, or simply listening, I lead with compassion, prayer, and purpose!!
