Saskia is a great person to have on your health and wellness team not only because she is so…read moreknowledgeable, but also because she is so wise. I don't need to hire someone to tell me to drink less alcohol or eat less sugar. I did need someone to remind me of why I need to change my diet (for my kids), and how to do it in a patient, sustainable way. For example, rather than cut out alcohol altogether, Saskia suggested that I only use half a shot of whiskey in a whiskey and soda so that when I ordered 2 drinks, I'm drinking half as much. Some ideas worked, and some had less success, but Saskia was always open to pitching ideas until they stuck. My numbers were on the brink of disaster, and I am much healthier now thanks in part to Saskia and her kindness, expertise and wisdom.

I met Shannon a long time ago at a restorative yoga class that she was teaching. After a fully…read morerelaxing hour, she shared that she also did dance classes and body work. I took her card and kept it. and kept it and even through spring cleaning and desk clearing, I kept it. Until finally this weekend I decided that I wanted something restorative and nurturing, so I went to see Shannon. She has a welcoming home studio in a residential part of Berkeley, which I liked because I could feel the vibes of her home. I always prefer this to manicured offices, even though it takes a certain vulnerability and bravery for massage therapists to open up a glimpse into their lives this way. During the initial check in, she was very attentive and listened to how I was feeling very closely. She was encouraging, and also relatable. I asked for a shiatsu massage, which is done fully clothed on two soft sheepskin rugs in the middle of the floor. After some sound therapy and chanting, she very thoughtfully stretched and cradled each limb. It was very cool to see how patiently she worked, how relaxed and rhythmic the pace was, and how she seemed very attuned to what as going on with me. At one point, I was beginning to get cold, and just as I was about to mention it, I felt a blanket being draped over me. She talks about how the music and the eye pillow help one to "drop down" into the space, but a lot of the time I felt like I was flying, as she waved my feet and made full circles with each arm, stretching my back and neck. It was a very special massage, and I am happy that she is still teaching restorative yoga, now in my neighborhood, so I can drop in for this kind of supported, guided resting more often!

We suggest calling for a phone interview to explore how she can assist you with pain, injury healing, sleep, blood work, and more. Might take a day for her to get back since she gets busy.

Then it transitioned into just motivating myself to be active a couple times a week, and then it turned into me wanting to compete in a strongman competition and hard-core training while on a pretty strict calorie deficit. Daphne was supportive in every phase of my fitness journey. She was with me during my first competition, and her insight was so valuable and she kept me calm. So no matter what your goals are Daphne will be there and help you through them! As a strongwoman, she has a lot of fun and different workouts and exercises to try to. So if you're someone who gets bored with conventional exercises constantly, you should definitely try Daphne! And she's just a great person to talk to.

Daphne worked with me to help me overcome my fears. She curated my home gym routine, she checks my weight and macros daily and is available for questions via text anytime.

She's a world class expert in lifting and health. I am stronger, trimmer, healthier and more confident. And I have a booty now!

I was genuinely excited to start this program. After investing in countless coaches and courses, I…read morewas ready to finally put an end to all the second-guessing and commit to a plan tailored specifically for me. I enrolled in the self-paced program after doing my research and seeing overwhelmingly positive reviews. In hindsight, not meeting anyone on video beforehand and relying solely on text communication was a mistake on my part. After taking the initial quiz, I guessed my body type and was assigned a coach who shared that same type. I followed the program precisely for six weeks and saw no results after the first week. Only then did I learn I'd been placed in the wrong program for the wrong body type. I was reassigned to one of the founders, who reviewed my case and matched my correct type. Another 2-3 weeks went by with zero progress, even after overhauling my routines yet again. I even paid extra for their Tier 2 service, with no changes or signs of improvement. I did everything that was asked of me: 15,000 steps a day, consistent powerlifting, hydration, structure, and discipline, yet nothing changed. Instead, my lack of progress was attributed to mindset, quantum physics, and somatic blocks. I'm trained in trauma-informed care and have spent years doing deep somatic and therapeutic work. I fully understand the mind-body connection. But when a program cannot deliver results, shifting the responsibility back onto the client feels dismissive and unfair. Ultimately, it felt like the blame was placed on me when my coach no longer knew how to support my case which is exactly why I hired them in the first place. While I appreciate receiving a $750 refund for the Tier 2 upgrade, I am still left having spent $1,500 on a self-paced program that did not work for me. This is simply my experience. Be thoughtful, do your research, and I truly hope your results are better than mine.

Before working with them I used to question and try every diet, fad, and workout program. I was…read morebasically trying to piece meal my way through ALL the conflicting info out on the internet and Instagram, and was so frustrated with my lack of consistent progress, even though I used to work so hard to try to eat right and workout every day to try and make my body composition and strength goals. Now, I have full clarity and confidence to know what to eat, when, and how much eat and workout to accomplish my body and athletic goals- in any and every circumstance!!! I did all of this all while traveling the world. That peace of mind, confidence, and increased self love I now have for myself is freaking invaluable. And I credit all of that to me working with Green Door Life. I lost fat, gained muscle, toned and built my overall body, and even lost cellulite- I didn't even know that was freaking possible, since I've worked to lose my cellulite for the last 15 years!! And, I did all of this while traveling through 8 different countries and living nomadically full time. I've completed the 12 week nutrition group program and some 1:1 coaching, I'm not trying to overstate this in anyway - it has literally changed my life. This isn't a quick fix or some fad, their courses and coaching is revolutionary to your whole life moving forward. The coaching around food and nutrition is expansive not restrictive. They give you the fundamental deep knowledge and psychological support needed in order to make any situation, any country, and basically any restaurant or food navigable for your goals. What I love about their coaching style is they make you self sufficient and empowered. There is no ongoing sales cycle and unlike other coaching programs, they don't make you feel you need them to keep your gains. I have a completely different and loving relationship to my body, the way I view and eat food is informed and fun, and my daily behaviors and internal throughs are so different and aligned for who I am becoming more of each day, and who I want to be, than how I was when I started the program. I highly recommend working with Green Door Life through their different courses and coaching. I am going to do their upcoming Awaken your Cycles and Strength courses as well, because the amount of value and life changing outcomes I get from them and their courses is literally worth 10x the amount they are priced.

Considering I hike 3x a week, I HATED the 2+ month downtime. I was put on BPC-157 and TB-500 (aka Wolverine Stack) and Semorelin. I am sensitive and do well with treatments. It gave me so much energy. It sounds too good to be true, but my injury improved with just 3 treatments. I was off trail running again! I noticed a youthful vitality & glow the next morning, something serums and creams only dream of achieving. Taking them in the evening is not an option, but mornings work well for me.

I highly recommend making him your doctor.
