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.

I've been working with Elyce this year and she's been amazing. If you're thinking about getting…read moresome help with your wellness goals Elyce would be a great choice. I came to her to lose weight, increase my energy and to keep my pre-diabetes from turning into full-blown diabetes. She's really easy to work with, supportive, knowledgeable and helps you set goals and keep on track. The benefits I've gained form working with her are more than I imagined. In the last two months I have lost weight, my energy is great, my A1C has come down, I have stopped taking ibuprofen because I'm not in pain anymore, I sleep well, and I'm much more up for doing the things I enjoy. It's been a totally worthwhile investment. If you're on the fence, do it! You'll be really glad you did.

I feel very fortunate to have worked with Elyce a couple of months ago. I was in a difficult place,…read morelooking for change and a way to get out of my "funk". She and I concentrated on what my core values were, looked at people/ things that were supporting me and people/things that were holding me back and not providing me with positive support. Having my vision statement has helped me to look at my priorities and figure out where my skills and talents might be best served. I took Elyce's advice and "put what I wanted out there". Since then, the quality of my life has vastly improved. I have a new job that I love. I walk to work and I just feel so good all over. Oh, and I have lost 10 pounds! I know I did the hard work and need to stay focused but Elyce has supported me and given me the tools I need.

I've worked with Joyce for about 6 months and have found her to be super knowledgeable,…read moreprofessional, compassionate, and pragmatic. I was referred to her by my MD for gut issues (SIBO) and she's been even more knowledgeable and helpful on that front than my gastroenterologist. Far more, actually. I particularly appreciate that after each session, she shares complete notes with a summary of next steps and pictures of the products she's recommending. I've also found her to be helpful regarding high glucose and diet/nutrition. She's got a ton of wisdom and easy ways to share it. High recommend.

After 2 years of daily struggle with what I now recognize as IBS-C, I can say that 95% of my…read moresymptoms are gone. Joyce identified my digestive issues as IBS and used a holistic approach to help me find treatments for my symptoms AND manage my root cause (stress). The first time I met Joyce, I instantly felt like she cared about my ailments and wanted to help me get better. Through a combination of mind-gut hypnotherapy, supplements, and behavioral changes, she helped me solve my problems in the span of 3 months. I have already recommended her to everyone I know who suffers from digestive issues and will continue to highly recommend her to others. I am not speaking in hyperbole when I say that Joyce's help changed my life. I am so grateful to her. I cannot thank you enough, Joyce.
