My name is Leigh Travers. Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself! Let’s get to it! 🙂
Like you, I am many things! A spouse, parent, friend, someone’s child, sibling, student, mentor, athlete, cab driver, ATM, cleaning service, employee, and entrepreneur! Isn’t all of that running around enough to stay in shape? 😉

I first began my journey to better health in 1999 after gaining over 80lbs with my first born. My body hurt, my energy was low, and I knew something was missing in my life. I needed to change my lifestyle, my poor eating habits and get active. Through trial and error, traditional education and trusting my own instincts, I have built a lifestyle and career, guiding people to do the same! Amazing!
Helping people obtain optimal health through diet and exercise is my true passion. I believe and have seen with my own eyes, that people can accomplish anything they make a true commitment to themselves to do! You will rarely find me observing at a finish line these days for the simple fact, it makes me cry…hard! Watching complete and total strangers accomplish goals overwhelms me with true joy. The body and mind can be trained to rise to any occasion. I know this because I am living proof. To make things more manageable, sometimes you just need someone in your corner helping to guide the way. That’s where I come in!

I do not believe in quick fixes, trends, fad diets or reckless workouts. If what you are doing in the gym and kitchen are not sustainable changes, why bother? It will only hurt your hormones, your body and in my opinion and most importantly, your self-esteem in the end. It’s not worth the emotional damage to lose 5lbs quickly just to gain back 10lbs that won’t budge the next time! Be good to yourself, you’re worth it!
Food education and training programs written for a purpose equal SUCCESS! I focus on educating people on how and why they should prep, cook, eat, buy and grow real food. Making nutritious food choices is always easier when you understand WHY you don’t want certain foods in your body and moving your body in a safe and effective manner will result in long-term health. Yes!!
