I found Shanti on my own over 10 years ago, then was referred to her again years later by a…read morephysician. Both times, I hesitated because of the cost -- I told myself I was already paying for insurance, so why pay out of pocket for something extra? That decision cost me more than money. I've been dealing with serious health issues since 2018, and I didn't see real progress in my treatment until I finally integrated Shanti into my care team. After a few years working with her, I'm in the best health I can remember in years -- and honestly, the turnaround still shocks me. Shanti has been the cornerstone connecting the dots across a complicated health picture: major weight and puffiness fluctuations, food reactions and allergies, MCAS/histamine issues, mold, migraines, headaches, and joint pain -- all while juggling multiple doctors and endless investigative work. She's been there on the days I could barely move or eat, in real pain and down, and she's helped me build a fuller care team rather than trying to be everything herself. She got me OFF the endless cycle of adding supplements and protocols, and taught me to simplify and actually listen to my body. She's patient, she remembers every detail of my history so I never feel like a number, and she adapts to what's realistic for me rather than forcing one rigid method or diet. We've also gone deeper than the physical -- into the inner work of trauma, stress, and old patterns -- and worked through how my health connects to my marriage, family, work, and travel. I'm so grateful for my work with Shanti. It has been life changing. I wouldn't be able to propel into my next steps in life without the rigor and resilience of our time together.

Working with Shanti has been one of the most empowering and supportive decisions I've made for my…read morehealth. I trust her completely--not just with my goals, but with my overall well-being. Her deep, science-based understanding of physiology, especially when it comes to female and athletic bodies, is truly unmatched. She meets you exactly where you are, tuning in to your personal needs while offering practical, meaningful guidance that leads to real change. What sets Shanti apart is her whole-body, natural approach. She's not someone who pushes a Western medicine fix for everything--she's incredibly attuned to the body's natural rhythms and honors the simplicity and wisdom of how we're built. She challenges me in the best ways, always pushing me toward actual growth while being emotionally supportive and truly caring along the way. And honestly--her approach works. I've been dealing with insulin resistance and hormonal shifts, and in just two months I've experienced a major, positive transformation in how I feel and how my body functions. I first worked with Shanti before my wedding and reached my goals, and came back to her when I decided to come off birth control. The results have been even more powerful the second time around. If you're ready to take real action and make sustainable, lifelong changes for your health, I can't recommend Shanti enough. She's the real deal

I've been working with Nico as my remote trainer for about three months, and I can't recommend him…read moreenough. I've lost 25 pounds in that time, and what's kept me showing up is how easy Nico makes the whole process. He's incredibly responsive. I never wait long for an answer when I have a question about a workout or need to adjust something around my schedule. He's also just a pleasure to work with: patient, and reliable session after session. Training remotely could easily feel disconnected, but Nico makes it feel personal and dialed in to what I actually need. If you're looking for a trainer who's consistent, communicative, and genuinely invested in your progress, Nico is the guy.

Working with Nico has been an eye opening experience for me. I was hesitant to invest money in…read moremyself but I had seen what his program had done for people I knew. I was lucky enough to win a raffle prize and work with him for 12 weeks. The progress I made and the support I received was more than I had made on my own and working with other trainers. He's available when I need to ask questions, and has never made me feel bad about myself if I've fallen "off track." If anything, he's taught me life is meant to be lived and food is a wonderful thing when used properly. My mindset around the scale has completely changed. I am looking forward to working with Nico this next year and seeing how far I will come

I would give negative stars if I could. This is a review of their online video service…read more Beware that there are no psychiatrists on staff - they are all NPs (nurse practitioners). For therapy, watch out since many of them are trainees training on your dime, but charging full price. Check their credentials: AMFT (Associate Marriage and Family Therapist), ASW (Associate Clinical Social Worker), APCC (Associate Professional Clinical Counselor). I needed a leave of absence (LOA) form to be provided to my work. They wanted to charge me $75 for each paperwork filled, more $ if it is "complicated." I ended up requesting my medical notes (which they are obligated to give you for free), and then forwarding to my primary care physician to have them fill out my forms for state disability (EDD) and LOA that my employer requires. The first time, even though they didn't provide me with a note, they charged me for it. I called 3 times and finally after a month, got it removed from my account billing. I am seeing their care givers for a mental health problem - I can't be expected to micromanage these things. They usually take about a week to send my medical notes. It's either the NP who doesn't have time to write down their notes until a few days later or the office staff who bumbles uploading the paperwork onto your documents folder (you have to login each time to get this - they will not email to you). I was charged $150 for being late to an appointment. I was 20 minutes late and didn't get to see anyone. They said it was policy that if I'm more than 15 min late, they leave the session and you get charged. If I'm paying for the full session, shouldn't I get whatever time is left? Beware that you can only communicate with your therapist/nurse practitioner through their online messaging system. You have to log into the system EACH TIME you want to check if they responded to your message. My disability is such that doing this is very hard. Stay away from this place if you can! If you don't have a mental health issue, then maybe you have the head space to manage your account, keep track of paperwork, and followup for prescriptions they said they sent to the pharmacy.

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.

Marisol is truly one of the most genuine, kind, caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful health…read moreprofessionals I have ever had the pleasure of working with. What sets Marisol apart is how deeply she listens, how much she genuinely cares, and her ability to look beyond the obvious to help you understand what may really be going on. Her knowledge, compassion, and commitment to helping people feel their best are exceptional. The gut/brain axis is very real. She will help you better understand it and the importance it has on your life. If you've been struggling with health issues, haven't been able to find answers, or simply want someone who will take the time to truly listen and understand YOU, I cannot recommend Marisol enough. Meeting with her could be one of the best decisions you make for your future health and well-being. Five stars without hesitation.

In November 2019, I was done with dieting. I felt like I had tried every diet out there and was…read morejust tired and exhausted at trying to change my body. Intuitive eating came up in a conversation I was having with a friend of mine. I had never heard of it before but was curious to learn more as she experienced a lot of the same obstacles I had with my body/self-esteem and eating. Curious for a new approach that would exclude dieting and change my view about myself, I did some research on Yelp. If you are looking for the same thing I did, I'm hoping this review can help you in the way that the others helped me. I know this sounds cheesy, but finding Renee changed my life. I started sessions with Renee feeling extremely unconfident in myself and I was convinced that my value was in the way that I looked and the shape of my body. But with every thoughtful session, detailed journaling, and individualized stepping stones, Renee helped me realize that the value in myself is more than just a number on a scale or the size of what I wear. I've been able to focus on so many things now that I am not constantly worrying about how I look. Which, let me tell you, is the best feeling. She helped me look at food in a different way which I will forever be grateful for. I am now able to see food as fuel for my body versus constant carb alarms. I don't feel guilt or sadness for eating pizza or ice cream, which I'm excited about because c'mon, that stuff is so good, right?! I've become more experimental in the foods that I eat while adding more vegetables into my food as I don't see them as the constant enemy anymore. The biggest thing I learned is that intuitive eating is not a "one and done" fix all system. It's not a diet. It's supposed to ebb and flow with your lifestyle and you are constantly going to learn about yourself. But that's the best part, right?! You're gonna still have lows, but you're gonna have a lot more highs. I learned to give myself a break and just take my frustrations as learning experiences for the next time. I'm so happy I learned about intuitive eating when I did so I can now enjoy all of the best memories I can consume versus worrying about all of the carbs I consume.

I am long overdue in writing this review. I would recommend Sabrina to anyone who wants to get…read morehealthy in an organic way! I had worked with Sabrina in the past and after years of struggling and as I have gotten older, I knew I had to reach out to her. I have always been active and I workout every day so that was not an issue for me. But I was still slowly and steadily gaining weight. I have tried every meal plan and/or diet you can think of spending hundreds of dollars a week on food and hours in the kitchen meal prepping, and nothing worked long term. I reached out to Sabrina in September and started working with her a week or so after my initial call. She made a few tweaks to my diet and my exercise routine, and the weight began to come off. We worked together until the middle of January. During our time working together I lost 20lbs. OVER. THE. HOLIDAYS. I am a social person, and food is always a part of that, so the holidays are especially challenging. If I can lose 20lbs over the holidays, anyone can. Since finishing my last session with Sabrina I have continued to lose weight. It doesn't come off as fast because I am not super focused on it, but that is what I love. It has felt easy to just keep doing what I am doing. The changes she made to my diet fit easily into my lifestyle. I finally feel like I am not on a diet, I have just changed the way I eat, and I am spending less money on food and spending less time on meal prepping than I was before working with her. I don't get on the scale a lot these days as I am more focused on feeling good than what the scale says, but every time I do, I am down a few more pounds.

Over the last 15 years I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on doctors, naturopaths,…read morefunctional nutritionists, integrative medicine physicians, acupuncturists, and even an energy healer--along with countless supplements and herbs--hoping to regain my energy and health. Yet, despite all this, I saw very little improvement. Recently, I realized that I had lost several pounds, and it became clear that a major part of the problem was that I simply wasn't eating enough. I'd been vegetarian for most of my life, and even after adding meat, I struggled because of my love for animals. On top of that, my demanding job often had me so focused that I would forget to eat entirely. I felt untethered to my life--weak, off-balance, and sometimes even fearful of driving or going out. I knew I needed someone to tell me exactly what to eat and how much, someone I could work with personally. I was so overwhelmed by conflicting information online--one source said this diet was essential, another said it was dangerous--that I thought all I needed was a clear plan. What I didn't realize was that I needed someone to help me identify why I was so paralyzed around food and how to address it. When I found Sabrina, I was drawn not only to her nutrition expertise but also her training as a Life Coach. After our first meeting, I knew I was in the right hands. The 14 weeks I spent with Sabrina were the best investment I've ever made in my health. Our sessions went far beyond food--she helped me uncover why I was avoiding eating, why I couldn't gain weight or strength despite eating very healthy, and how to break those patterns. She took the time to learn what I actually like to eat, then provided a personalized meal library to guide me with meals and snacks, which made staying on track so much easier. Her Life Coach approach was invaluable! She is non-judgmental, supportive, and gently kept me on track, adjusting strategies when needed. All of my calls with her were grounding and soothing, especially amid my chaotic workdays. Thanks to Sabrina, I now understand the habits that were stealing my health, and I'm actively reversing them. I've started putting weight back on, feel stronger and more confident in my daily life, and no longer have anxiety around food. If you've been struggling with nutrition, habits, or energy, Sabrina can guide you with knowledge, support, and understanding. You deserve to feel strong, confident, and healthy--don't wait to reach out to her!
