Weight Loss Coaching FAQs

Can’t I just use AI to create my meal and workout plans?

While AI tools can offer basic templates, they often miss the bigger picture — you. Real weight loss success isn’t just about generic plans; it’s about understanding your unique lifestyle, preferences, struggles, and goals. AI can’t ask follow-up questions, catch emotional patterns, or help you troubleshoot when life gets messy. I've personally tested AI to create meal plans, but found its calorie and macronutrient estimates to be highly inaccurate.

With 1:1 coaching, you get personalized support, real-time adjustments, accountability, and someone who’s in your corner — not just spitting out a plan, but helping you make it work in the context of your life.

Can I start with a package and switch to a subscription later?

Yes! Both the Starter and Confidence Commitment packages are designed to transition into a monthly subscription for continued support, if you choose.

What is included in the subscription?

The subscription includes three 1:1 sessions per month and support between calls to keep you on track with your progress.

Do you create meal plans?

Yes — but the goal is to teach you how to do it too. You’ll receive personalized nutrition guidance based on your preferences and goals, and I’ll walk you through how to plan, adjust, and build meals that work for you. It’s about gaining tools, not just following rules.

Personal Style Package FAQs

What if I don’t know what my style is yet?

That’s exactly what we’ll figure out together. This service is for people who feel lost, stuck, or ready to feel more aligned with how they dress.

What’s the difference between the Basics and Deep Dive packages?

The Basics package includes 3 sessions: one introductory session to explore your goals, plus your choice of any 2 focus areas.
The Deep Dive package includes the same introductory session and all 5 style services — from body shape analysis to capsule wardrobe guidance — for a complete transformation.

Do I need a color analysis before purchasing a style package?

Nope — it’s totally optional, though many clients love doing both! If you book the Complete Confidence Transformation, it’s included.

Color Analysis FAQs

How is the color analysis done?

After you send in your photos, I personally complete your analysis, and we go over the results together.

What photos do you need for the color analysis?

To ensure accurate results, please follow these guidelines when submitting your photos for your color analysis:

  • Remove any eyewear and colored contacts

  • Have a clean, makeup-free face

  • Ideally, let any fake tan fade on your face before submitting photos

  • Take photos in natural, indirect light

  • Take photos head-on and at eye level (no side views or angled photos)

  • Wear a white t-shirt

  • If you choose to smile, do not show your teeth

What if I have questions later?

If questions pop up after the session or even months later, I’m happy to help. Just send me an email and I’ll respond as soon as I’m able.

Is color analysis only for people who wear makeup?

Not at all! This service is all about colors that suit your natural features, whether you wear makeup or not. Wearing the wrong colors in your wardrobe could make you look washed out, tired, or may even overpower you. Finding your best colors will enhance your features.

Will you share my photos?

I will never share your photos without your consent. Your privacy is my priority.

What’s the difference between your color analysis and having AI do my analysis?

I personally perform each service to ensure high-quality results. AI cannot accurately determine your undertone because it is the color beneath your skin, which requires careful comparison and observation. The most accurate analysis comes from someone who takes the time to assess how your skin reacts to different colors. Additionally, AI relies on generic parameters to assign seasonal categories. For example, if you have blue eyes, it may automatically categorize you as a Summer, even though eye and hair color do not strictly determine your season. Human expertise is far superior in providing accurate and personalized results.
