Cynthia, I thought you are a practitioner yourself?
Why are you claiming to be a Business Coach?
I have been in business as a Nutrition Practitioner, Educator, Speaker and Coach for over 8 years…
and built a very successful service-based business along the way.
My skills and services as a Business Coach actually happened by accident because several of my colleagues were asking how I built a lucrative private practice in Manhattan in less than a year.
I found out very quickly how much I loved helping others cut their confusion, get some clients and calm the mental anguish that often comes with starting a business!

How it all works…
Time Frame:
There are no requirements for how long we may work together. The minimum is a 2-hour power session, ranging all the way up to building a relationship over several years.
Fees:
The investment to work with me privately ranges from $325- $4000. After you complete a few initial questions (located below), you will be contacted to set up a complementary phone call and we can go over your needs at that time.
A sliding scale is offered for 2 clients at any given time. If this is what you need, please fill out the form below and mention that.
Method of Connecting:
Our sessions can be conducted on the phone, via Skype, or in person if you are in the Boulder area. Each session is about 1 hour.
I am also happy to offer you an intensive VIP Day, where we spend 8-9 hours together plowing through everything you need.
So Let’s Get Started!
The first step is to answer a few questions below…
Once I receive your responses, you will be contacted back within 24 hours to schedule your complementary 20-minute phone chat.
When I started my health counseling business back in 2005, Cynthia had an instrumental role in helping me develop it. She guided me through the process of building the business so that I could leave my full-time job and helped give me structure and direction in regards to what to do first. 
I was clueless as to how to set up a health counseling business and have an operation that runs smoothly. As a 25 year sales veteran, I was used to someone else handling all the minutia and details. My thought was that since everyone “EATS”, everyone was my client!
Before I started working with Cynthia, I was feeling confused and overwhelmed with all the different options facing me in my Health Coaching practice. I chose Cynthia after taking one of her teleclasses about transforming my relationship with food. Through that course, I came to appreciate and respect the manner in which Cynthia teaches. I found her to be a bright, positive, calming and supportive teacher. When I started the class, I didn't even know I wanted a business coach. But after it was over, I knew I needed more of Cynthia's positive and supportive energy in my life, and business coaching seemed to be the obvious next step.
The idea of starting my own business was terrifying and I was overwhelmed with everything that I had to do. I needed a plan of action and Cynthia provided the guidance I needed and held my hand in the process.
