~ Client Speak~Love Notes from Previous Clients “[As an RN] I’ve been in the medical field for so long, and I just feel like what [Poa is] doing is the true medicine that we all need.” — Purposefully You! client “Working with Poa has been transformative! Her attentive, personalized approach meant that each piece of wisdom, each gentle nudge was tailored uniquely to me and I think this is why the changes we made together are still sticking! I appreciated the holistic approach of Poa’s coaching, touching not only on nutrition, but on stress reduction, breathing techniques, herbal supports and other components of whole-self wellness. Poa has helped me to create a wellness “eco-system” that I can rely on to support me. ” — Janean, Purposefully You! client “I came to Poa feeling disheartened and confused. 5 years in menopause had taken a toll on my psyche and my body. I was eating like I always ate and exercising more, but the weight kept sticking to me and although I do a lot to love myself, and I do love myself, it was hard. My libido also felt completely shut off which meant I didn’t want to be physical with my guy and that just added to the frustration.Poa helped me make a few simple shifts in my food and in my thinking…giving me space to allow my beautiful body to take her time to adjust and realign. I’m happy to say that I’m feeling in balance again. The pounds are gently melting off my body, I’m feeling like myself, and I’m starting to feel ready to be physical with my partner again. It’s a wonderful feeling and I’m grateful for Poa’s knowledge, gentle approach, and very strong intuition.” — Patricia, client “I can’t recommend working with Poa enough. Her program is revolutionary in its simplicity. If you are tired of trying to keep up with the latest health recommendations and “should do’s” then please consider this program.She is able to really break things down to the basics in a comforting way with gentle guidance.I promise you will walk away feeling better!” — Jen, Purposefully You! client “Working with Poa helped me create a powerful new foundation as I navigated (& am navigating) a new chapter of my life. Even if you already live a healthy life, there is always the next level!Her gentle ways and solid presence helped me feel fully supported in my process. Super Grateful! Thanks Poa!” — Dee, Purposefully You! client “Poa is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of health and wellbeing from body to soul. I looked forward to each call for the interesting discussions and her calm, kind and intuitive guidance and support. I learned so many new things and, at the same time, appreciated Poa’s focus on the awareness I already had of the health and habits I was carrying. She helped me reconnect with myself and my goals and then gave me the tools and choices to support an ongoing healthier lifestyle. ” — Mari Allan, Purposefully You! client “I honestly didn’t know what to expect. I was so excited by the depth of knowledge and practices Poa shared with me. The unpretentious straight talk and requests for accountability on my part really helped me commit and devote myself to the practices. I have a way to go however I really feel like I’m on the right track. ” — Purposefully You! client “When I decided to work with Poa and Daily Roots I knew I had to be ready to take this leap and do the work. I soon found, in Poa, not so much effort in ‘doing’...but time dedicated to ‘being’. Poa focused a lot on awareness and tuning into my own body. Each week built upon the last, adding new, small, achievable habits to shift my body and mind into feeling better...and, simply, the ability to truly feel my body. This was an awareness I had never known before, how my body FELT when I ate something or stopped to think before snacking.I had to be patient with this process and when we finally got to a stage of removing some food triggers, I was ready and able, for the first time in my life to do that without ‘effort’ or difficulty. Poa is genuine, gentle, knowledgeable and most importantly, tailors the program to fit YOU. I believe Poa has the creativity, wisdom and intuition to adjust the program to each person she guides. The accountability was wonderful for me and the weekly sessions with Poa were met with joyful anticipation. I am now almost 3 months past working with Poa and am still supporting my body and mind with nutrition, less food triggers, listening to my body, meditation and much more. If you are wondering, should I try this? Yes. Try. Be gentle with yourself, patient with the process and listen in. Commit to the journey and you will find a new path toward health and wellness that will be walked for a lifetime! Thank you Poa...for giving yourself to guiding others on their path to wellness...mind. body. spirit. ” — Trisha, Purposefully You! client “This program exposed some interesting habits of mine and truly tipped the scales on improving my relationship with food, as well as with myself! ” — Jordan, Purposefully You! client “As a single, working mom I was growing weary of constantly getting sick and feeling like my immune system was working on low charge. Poa helped me understand there were places I could make small changes that would help me build up my immune system and just be more healthy.During our sessions we talked about various things that could help me build up my immune system - many of which were small, little daily changes that I slowly embraced, as was feasible to me at the time. The small, sometimes even tiny, changes slowly became habit for me. Fast forward a year and a new winter season. The season changed and I didn’t get my normal cold. The flu plagued my school building and most of our staff, and I remained healthy. I truly think the tiny changes of daily habits has helped my body be charged and healthy. Thanks to Poa for all the conversation, recommendations and encouragement- it really has transformed my body into a much healthier state!”” — Nora, Purposefully You! client
