"I would recommend this great experience to almost anyone!

How refreshing it was to have a very compassionate and knowledgeable person like Rylie to work with me on stuff I had been struggling with. I had become stuck and overwhelmed.

I had let so many of my self-care habits fall into neglect and really was not able to figure out how to start over, or even where to start.

Rylie was 100% non-biased and never judgmental and I felt free to talk about it all, from medications to obsessive behaviors I was doing and what I had been shrugging off as unimportant when they really were extremely important.

What a difference it made. I have more freedom and less worry.  Now I have much better scheduling and time management skills that work for me, which allows me to do more of the things I really want to do. I am so very grateful."

“My goal in meeting with Rylie was to address nutrition and health wellness after a year’s journey with cancer. What I didn’t expect was the relationship that developed in the brief time that we met. Rylie’s genuine care, attentive listening and gentle approach allowed me to share more about other struggles I’ve faced the past few years. 

Her mindfulness techniques, nutrition coaching and goal setting helped put into place valuable practices for a holistic approach to my wellness. I looked forward to each session with Rylie, her follow up summaries and her knowledgeable insight. 

My positive experience will be shared with others! Thanks, Rylie!”

"...Health coaching with Rylie is a true partnership. She is someone who respects your terms and your reasons for wanting — or not wanting — to change, and she shows up for you on that path, so you aren’t alone in walking it. Change is often difficult, even when it’s something we really want, and often it even feels downright impossible.

A huge benefit of health coaching I experienced was having someone in your corner to help you through it, especially on the hardest days. She helped me see that I could overcome, when I was in a place of feeling like everything I had done had failed, and always would. When I was overwhelmed, she made it possible to step back and see the big and daunting tasks seem like manageable things I could make progress towards each day. And more than anything, for me, was the source of validation she emboldened me with each session. I would always leave our time together feeling like the flame was reignited, and that I could do anything.

Our time together always felt so intentional and purposeful, and I felt known, heard, and seen. Rylie is very kind, warm, and empathetic—it felt comfortable and easy to open to her, even about things that were difficult to admit to myself. She is very relational, and holds a safe space to come as you are."

“Prior to working with Rylie, I was feeling extremely overwhelmed with daily life. A flatlining career, money woes, poor nutrition, and sleep issues were keeping my stress levels high, and I just didn't feel good about myself. I knew what changes I wanted to make but couldn't seem to get the ball rolling. Rylie was able to get me out of my head and start putting in the work. She asked the tough questions but also held space for me to work through my answers. 

Her demeanor is quiet but curious, never judgmental. She has a gentle way of speaking that puts one at ease, like you're talking with a friend who truly has your back. Her choice to lend some of her own experiences to our conversations really validated my feelings and helped me realize that I'm not actually alone in my thoughts and actions- that merely talking through it can make what seemed like an insurmountable obstacle feel more like a molehill. 

I knew my biggest hurdle was self-accountability, but our regular sessions kept me on track by initially tapping into my competitive, people-pleaser nature. The fact that I wanted to bring positive results to each session kept me working toward my daily goals. However, Rylie was always supportive and encouraging regardless of how I felt about my progress. She shifted my perspective by expressing her own view of the situation, which was monumental for me to allow myself more grace with what I considered to be severe shortcomings. I'm to the point now where I'm seeing my work start to pay off. With her help I've come up with tools and routines that are sticking, allowing me to be more productive, less judgmental of myself, and helping to take that doom-stress out of my life.

Anyone looking for a gentle yet firm approach to work through their problems will appreciate Rylie's personality and professionalism. She's light-hearted, funny, and engages in conversations that stray off topic but always segues right back to the important questions, oftentimes revealing the truth in the process. I cannot recommend Rylie's services enough.”

“Coach Rylie is such a gentle nurse coach. Her gentle demeanor helps you open up to her quickly. She keeps you grounded and honest, not afraid to challenge your belief when she needed to. If you want a gentle coach, Coach Rylie is your girl.”

"...She has created her own mindfulness scenarios which are very calming and imaginative. I felt as though I was taken on a peaceful trip, as she took me down the river in a kayak. I have no doubt that this will add a very special piece to Rylie's coaching sessions. On top of that, from speaking with her, I can tell she prepares well in order to be knowledgeable about her client's situation. I am confident she is going to be a very comforting coach for any client that is fortunate to have her."

“...She assisted me as a personal health coach. We focused on setting reasonable goals based on my physical, mental, and spiritual health. We also discussed my nutritional goals as I want to eat a more plant-based diet and lose weight.

Rylie was an excellent mentor. I found the experience to be very empowering. I promised to check in with her in six months to let her know how I am doing with meeting my goals and creating new healthy lifestyle changes. I am clearly richer for the experience.”

“...Rylie guided the meditation exercises through beautiful guided imagery pieces she wrote, and a couple particular to my interest and happiness in the forest and by bodies of water. She not only has beautiful creative talent in guided imagery, but her tone of voice is soothing, relaxing, and genuine. I looked forward to each and every coaching session, and even felt better and more relaxed after each meditation practice! I highly recommend Rylie!”
