The 1:1 Gut Health Program

When I started coaching with Alessandra, I felt extremely lost and couldn’t find direction in my life. I now have a better vision for my future. I think the best part of Alessandra’s coaching is that she really cares about me as a person. Unlike other coaching that focuses only on food or exercise, Alessandra’s coaching also focuses on lifestyle and how everything is linked together.

I’ve learned many valuable things while working with Alessandra. I learned more about myself, became more aware of my behaviours, and became more disciplined. When I first started the program, I was unemployed, very stressed out about finding a job, and eating a whole lot of junk food... I was struggling! Alessandra helped me identify the core reasons for my eating patterns. I realized that what I was really craving was security and financial stability. With this new self-awareness, I learned how to navigate cravings mindfully and to shop for healthier foods, even with a limited budget. I also saw major improvements in my coffee addiction, and my physical activity has become more disciplined.

Alessandra is really good at breaking down emotions into more specific details. I found this helped me achieve my goals. I do believe that every unhealthy behavior is because of an unproductive mental pattern or lack of motivation. Once I gained more self-awareness, I gained more control of my habits and therefore of my results. In addition, Alessandra is very knowledgeable and resourceful. She provided me with amazing yoga practice suggestions, meditations, and recipes.

I would highly recommend Alessandra as a coach. She’ll never impose a solution on you, but she leads you to find the answers for yourself, empowers you to live your own truth, and guides you to achieve your goals.

Before working with Alessandra, I was having a hard time keeping on track and finding motivation. I didn’t know how to handle a stressful day or moment, I didn’t have the convenience of healthy foods, and I didn’t have a support system/community.

After completing my 3-month coaching program, I now have more energy for sure. I feel like getting up early for the gym, and playing with my kids after work. I found my groove, and got into a routine of meal planning/prepping and making freezer meals. I have been way more consistent with eating whole foods than ever before. I now crave more healthy foods than junk/processed foods. I am less stressed due to having a plan and having foods prepared.

Having weekly check-ins and goals was great. Alessandra always had something new and different each week (e.g. new tools, information, or motivation tips). I learned to always focus on the positives and take it one week at a time, to be patient with the process, and to not look so much into weight and body image, and look more into how food makes you feel. I also learned what foods are high in iron, how to build better lifestyle habits, and how to keep motivation high. I now have more confidence in my journey.

I would certainly recommend Alessandra as a coach! She helped me get into a routine that I have been trying to do for the past 8 years! She helped me see the “why” behind my goals to become healthier. She was patient, positive, and caring. She was able to adapt to my individual needs. She made it about my journey, allowed me to come up with my own goals, and gave me the tools to reach them.

Working with Alessandra really changed the way I think about food and what it means to eat well. She helped me find a balance that felt healthy and achievable, while still honouring the foods, traditions and Italian culture that are such an important part of my life.

She really met me where I was, taking the time to understand my goals, my lifestyle and what I actually enjoy. She helped me make sense of how to nourish myself properly and support my fitness goals without making food feel restrictive or complicated.

It was such a positive kickstart to my journey. Alessandra was thoughtful, present and thorough, but also made the whole experience feel easy and fun. I walked away feeling more confident, informed and excited about taking care of myself.

When starting my journey with Alessandra, I really wanted to find ease, to naturally choose more healthy options on a daily basis, and to rediscover myself. Alessandra was thoughtful, compassionate, and committed to helping me achieve these goals. Not only did she fully listen and support me, but she also challenged my perspectives in ways that were effortlessly life-changing.

My life feels so much more wholesome. I am easily choosing actions that make me feel healthier each day, I am way more present with all of my interactions, and am even proud to announce that through her coaching I have reignited my own love for the world of health and am now enrolled to become a certified holistic health coach, myself!

All of the transformations Alessandra has guided me through are nothing short of incredible, and I would recommend her as a health coach to anyone looking to challenge what they currently accept as their “normal.” She has a magical way of making you see the world in a new light, and I feel so grateful to have had her as a coach and discovered her as a soul sister.

When Alessandra and I first started working together, my biggest challenge was most definitely self-discipline. When we had conversations, I always left very inspired and motivated. I learnt how necessary it is to have patience when transforming and shifting everyday routines into healthier realms. I also learnt about bio-individuality, which allowed me to release much of the shame I was holding within me about being unable to have a holistic lifestyle. I was comparing myself to others, which was becoming toxic to my self-confidence and overall wellbeing. Everyone has different paths and ways of learning and adapting to the needs of their own bodies!

Alessandra helped me by being so supportive! I was so embarrassed when we spoke about some of my unhealthy habits, but Alessandra is a great listener and holds absolutely zero judgment, which made me feel really comfortable. She offered wonderful tips, advice and put together really great pieces of feedback and resources at the end of each session. She also checked in, which was motivating!

I would 10000% recommend Alessandra as a coach. She’s, firstly, incredibly passionate about holistic wellbeing and everything that comes with it. This is very inspiring. Not to mention she is dedicated, super professional, approachable, kind and a great listener! And she knows her shit!!!! Alessandra helped me quit smoking, which is something I haven’t been able to do in about a decade. She shifted my perspective on wellbeing as a practice to continue nurturing… and I’m so grateful!

I had the pleasure of working with Alessandra for nutrition coaching, and she was absolutely incredible. Her care, commitment, and genuine passion for her clients’ well-being really stood out from day one. Alessandra is incredibly resourceful—she always found delicious and satisfying plant-based substitutes for my favorite foods, which made the transition feel exciting rather than restrictive.

What truly sets her apart is the personal touch. She even planned a one-on-one session at a cozy, tucked-away café filled with vibrant, healthy flavors that made learning about nutrition feel fun and inspiring. Thanks to her, I was introduced to the rich world of plant-based eating, and now I see how vast and flavorful it truly is.

If you’re looking to elevate your diet and embrace a healthier lifestyle in a sustainable and enjoyable way, I wholeheartedly recommend Alessandra. She’s a coach who truly cares, and it shows.
