by Christian on July 1st, 2025
“I've been on a journey to clean up my eating, get my gut right and be more active. Marissa has been such wonderful support during this transition and helped me to tweak certain things to work for me specifically and always keeps my preferences and lifestyle in mind. She's really helped me lock in healthy habits and update my movement routines to be more beneficial. I feel healthy and confident and have slowly and consistently lost weight. Plus, she's always so kind. Highly recommended!!“
