Amy Peters

Nutrition + Fitness Coach

When women reach out to me - typically they’re at a point where their kids don’t need them every waking second.  They have a little more time to themselves.

What they realize is they’ve neglected their own self-care.  When they look in the mirror and hate how they look or experience the discomfort of not fitting in their clothes - it doesn’t feel good.  

These women know they can and should feel better about themselves.  

I know I can help, because I’ve been there too.

For me the pivotal moment was a doctor's appointment.

Sitting in the doctor's office, waiting for that knock on the door, I felt nervous admitting to what I was about to say...

As a mom - there’s so much to think about in a day that even if you’re uncomfortable- days can easily turn into weeks and even months without doing anything about it.

That was the position I was in 10 years ago, sitting in my doctor’s office for a planned annual visit. With two toddlers under 5 and a job where I worked from home I felt isolated, alone, and depressed.

Finally I worked up the nerve to tell my doctor I didn’t feel like myself. I didn’t want to admit that I wasn’t handling life well, but I knew things had to change.

She asked if I did anything for exercise - I shared that I walked my dog with my kids.

She made a suggestion to carve out time for exercise - ALONE. It’s hard to believe now, but it took “doctor’s orders” to give myself permission to do this.

I followed her advice. And that simple, but empowering suggestion, helped me turn things around and start feeling like myself again.

Before long I forgot all about my symptoms, and I knew that if I could help even one more mom feel like herself again with fitness - I could make a difference.

And so I became a coach.

I mentored with a strength coach for 8 years and achieved several certifications for fitness and nutrition.

I personally transformed my mind and body through what I learned - all for the better.

When the pandemic hit I created my own business so I could take care of my kids and continue to service clients no matter where they were.

And I’m honored to share my passion, my fitness and nutrition coaching business with you!

"Amy you are awesome!!! Thank you for the gentle push and the knowledge you’ve given me along the way. Also, thank you for your diligence on finding the optimal macro numbers that helped my body perform at its best."
