You've built a life you're proud of. But somewhere along the way, your own health slid to the bottom of the list.
You're capable and dependable, and you're also tired, overwhelmed, and ready to feel like yourself again. Personalized 1:1 nurse coaching helps you make changes that last, without adding more pressure to an already full life.
Free 30 minutes - Zoom - Available in most U.S. states (see FAQ)
From the outside, everything may look fine. You manage your career, your family and everyone who counts on you.
But inside, you may be thinking:
"I'm exhausted."
"I know what I should be doing, but I can't seem to make it happen."
"I just want to feel like myself again."
You don't need another person telling you to "eat better" or "manage your stress." You need support that fits your health, your responsibilities, and the life you actually live.
Imagine waking up with more energy. Making time for yourself without guilt. Feeling like your life is working with you instead of against you.
You don't have to change everything. You just need to know what to change first, and have support to follow through.
Both can help you grow. But when stress shows up in your body (your sleep, your energy, your mood), you deserve a coach who understands health.
Topic | Life Coach | Nurse Coach |
|---|---|---|
Training | No license or health training required | Registered Nurse, 18+ years of clinical experience |
Focus | Goals, mindset, motivation | All of these plus: Your body, mind, daily habits together |
Sleep, energy, and stress | General tips | Knows how stress affects sleep, hormones, and energy |
When somethings needs a doctor | May not recognize it | Recognizes when to see a doctor or therapist and helps you get there |
Standards | Varies by coach | Bound by the nursing code of ethics and HIPPA |
Nurse coaching supports your health goals. It does not replace care from your doctor or mental health provider.

For more than 18 years as a Registered Nurse, I've cared for people facing complex health challenges. That work taught me that every person is different, and that lasting change means looking at the whole picture.
As a Holistic Nurse Coach, I combine my nursing background with proven behavior-change strategies. I also know what it's like to juggle it all: I'm a mom of three who has had to learn to put my own well-being back on the list.
Most women already know they should sleep more, move more, and manage stress. The problem isn't information. It's turning what you know into habits that last. That's where we work together.
Stress Coaching: Feel less pulled in every direction. Learn practical ways to calm your mind, create breathing room, and stop running on empty.
Burnout Recovery: Tired and burned out aren't the same thing. Find what's draining you, restore your energy, and build routines that support you.
Stress & Anger Coaching: Snapping at the people you love doesn't make you a bad person. It means you're carrying too much. Learn to respond the way you want to.
1. Discover. We start with where you are now: what's draining your energy, what's causing stress, and what you most want to change.
2. Personalize. Together we choose the priorities that will make the biggest difference. Your plan fits your goals and your life, not a generic checklist.
3. Implement. We turn goals into small, doable steps. Between our Zoom sessions, I find resources picked for your situation, such as sleep and energy support, stress tools, or movement and nutrition ideas.
4. Sustain. You build habits and awareness that keep working long after coaching ends.
The goal isn't perfection. It's progress you can keep.
"Rachel helped me set realistic goals to balance my commitments and my physical and emotional well-being. I was able to feel less overwhelmed and more in control of my health."
Kristi O., Arizona
"I had been feeling stuck. As a mom of four kids who works full time, my schedule is packed, and making healthy changes felt like this enormous, overwhelming challenge I couldn't quite figure out how to tackle on my own. I knew I needed an accountability partner who could help me think things through and break it down into something manageable. The fact that we could meet online for an hour each week made it possible — that dedicated time to step back and focus on me was invaluable."
Kristen F., Idaho
Your health and well-being deserve more than another quick fix.
Coaching begins with a 4-session foundation program over one to two months. From there, we can continue with the level of support that fits your goals.
On your complimentary discovery call, we'll talk about where you are now, what you want to change, and which option fits you best. No pressure, and no one-size-fits-all package, because there's no one-size-fits-all woman.
Programs start at $1,200 for 4 one-on-one sessions over 1-2 months with a Registered Nurse. Every program includes a personalized plan and support between sessions, and payment plans are available. We'll talk through the options on your complimentary discovery call, and there's no pressure or obligation to decide that day.

This may be the right next step if:
You're successful on paper but exhausted behind the scenes.
Stress and overwhelm have become your normal.
You know what you should be doing but struggle to follow through.
You've tried a life coach, an app, or a program, and it didn't stick.
You want personal support from someone who understands health.
You're ready to invest time and energy in yourself.
You don't have to wait until you're completely burned out to ask for support.
You've spent enough time taking care of everyone else. You don't need another complicated plan. You need space to pause, figure out what you need, and take the first realistic step.
Let's start with a conversation.
