Recently I completed my 90-day Wellness Maven program and I am thrilled! Every week Lygia Lott, The Wellness Maven, taught me how to manage my life, moving in a forward direction without stagnation.
Prior to this program, I had tried and even paid hundreds of dollars to lose weight, launch my online store, and deal with stress. After my 90 days on the Wellness program, I’ve learned to do it all!
When I tried eating healthy and sticking to a “whatever” diet the pounds generally did come off – but they didn’t stay off. Food is my go to when stress moves in and all control goes out the window. The Wellness Maven taught me how to take back control by giving me anchors to hold onto. Also, learning to chew my food 30 times was an incredible tool aiding my digestion and triggering fullness, so I eat less.
My online store is up and running because the Wellness Maven has given me the confidence and self-worth needed to not be afraid of success.
The Wellness Maven understood the physical pain I was in and suggested I seek Applied Kinesiology which I was able to find within a week! The same week I was able to finally find a housekeeper freeing me up to run my business, as suggested by The Wellness Maven.
I am feeling so much better and successful, happy and open to new and wonderful things. It’s never too late to change your life – I am 69 years old. I strongly recommend The Wellness.

I was most discipline with Coach Gia's guidance that I had been in a long time. The exercises given were great for me mentally and emotionally, so that I was able to be physically on target. I miss the program and the weekly support.

Working with The Wellness Maven, Lygia was such an eye-opening experience for me. I've done over a billion different diets over the past 20-ish years, and none of them really taught me anything about myself. Kicking off our 90-day transformation, I was nervous about not being successful, and only measuring success as a number – 10 lbs per 30 days, which was obviously very daunting. While I did lose about 15 lbs, I soon realized that the 90 days was about so much more than the pound-for-pound victories.
In the first session, I owned up to being lazy about meal planning, which is at the root of my struggle with weight. I would make excuses for not prioritizing grocery shopping and meal prep, and we discovered that it was part of an overall pattern of not making myself a priority. Not drinking enough water, not taking a break from work, not eating enough food regularly, not thoroughly chewing and enjoying my food – all basic things that are vital to being healthy inside and out.
Overall, since the 90-day transformation, I feel happier (perhaps cutting out meat has elevated my mood?), I don't feel the need to overeat because I don't let myself go for over 4 hours without having SOMETHING. One small victory post-transformation – On Thanksgiving, I didn't need a second plate for the first time (ever?) because I was full. When you say that out loud, it almost sounds silly, because of course we only need one plate of food per meal. But we all know that socially, having multiple plates on Thanksgiving is totally acceptable, even if you feel like s**t afterward. Since finishing my 90 days, I've made it a commitment to listen to my body, and give it what it wants, not what my brain has been conditioned to think it should have, and it always feels so much better.Thank you, Lygia!!

Prior to the coaching, I received through the 90-day transformation, I battled with many fears, fear of making difficult sacrifices, fear of taking risks, and even had a fear of learning new things. Being new here in L.A. after moving from Florida, I was thrust into the most exciting, fast-paced, diverse industry to be in; the entertainment industry! I needed help acclimating to my new lifestyle as a professional in this ever-changing environment - most importantly, I wanted to do so without losing my authenticity and energy.
I was terrified of not being able to meet the demands of what it took to keep up with the speed of the music industry, and then I found Coach Gia . . . and she was more than a health coach! She was a nutritionist, a mentor, a confidant, and my support system! I accomplished the impossible in such a short time period, where initially I thought "there's no way I can completely change my lifestyle in only 3 months", I was wrong!Not only was I able to achieve my goals of maintaining a strict vegetarian diet, I was my ideal weight, and had lots of energy and an unexplained confidence in myself! I shaped positive habits that helped me to be thorough in my work, as well as build and maintain professional relationships with very important figures in the business! On top of working long hours, I was able to exercise regularly, prepare most all of my own meals without, still have a social life and without feeling burned out! I even took a shot at adding more on my plate by taking up a Master's degree, and my initial fear was that I wouldn't get accepted into the grad program of my choice, but she erased any doubt, and lo and behold, I got in!The 90-day total transformation allowed me to completely transform my lifestyle and habits and maintain a healthy balance in every area of my life! I could not be more grateful for the decision I made to work with Gia!
