I get hundreds of inquiries about my health coaching services. And in my five years of coaching, I'v noticed that I always develop effortless relationships with the women who become my clients. I'm not surprised, really. Like attracts like. Usually they're struggling with something I've been through or we have similar perspectives or personality traits.

Only those shots weren't full of health benefits, but still.
