Today is the 1st Day of May [Happy Labor day To You In Kenya :-)], and as I sit here reflecting about what I’ve achieved the last 4 months, It just hit me that you might not know this about me…
I am a Health Coach…yes I am!
Did I confuse or lose you? Are you wondering “Health coach? I thought you were a fitness trainer/personal trainer or nutritionist?”
Yes and yes.
I have been certified in Wellness and Nutrition Coaching as well as Personal training since 2014, but I’ve also grown & morphed over the last 3 years into health coaching.
You see, 4 or 5 years ago, I used to create meal plans or workout plans for my online clients. They would be excited to receive this info and would get started…then fall off and not achieve their goals 🙁
Why was this? I knew my plans worked, but couldn’t figure out why they couldn’t stick to the plans long term.
The truth is, I made the assumption that everybody was like me; I am highly intrinsically motivated and once committed to doing something, like a runaway train…nothing can stop me. I go all out unrelentingly until I achieve/get it, which might explain why I spent 5 of my 11-year fitness journey in Body Building. I realized that you, my dear health enthusiasts, simply want to get healthy, feel good, look great and I need to meet you where you are.
I knew that to succeed in helping my clients, I needed to take a deeper dive and help them upgrade/reprogram the habits that kept them from achieving their goal, such as motivation. A health coach is a master of habit change without which, long term health and weight loss are elusive or can become a vicious unattainable cycle.
I am a body transformation coach that helps women transform their bodies by coaching them through weight loss so that they can improve their quality of life and experience increased confidence, self-love, and happiness. I do this by providing customized programs and guidance that motivates them to take inspired actions which transform their bodies and their lives.
There are certain habits, values, or beliefs that will block you from achieving your (life) goals. Until these blocks can be changed or upgraded, you will not be able to successfully use any tools (nutrition + workout) provided.
It’s like trying to download the latest + greatest new app on a phone or laptop that has an old OS (operating system), It doesn’t work. Only after upgrading the OS will the app download.
If the tech speak above doesn’t make sense, let’s try this one 🙂
It’s like trying to pour new wine into old wineskins, the wineskins would break and the wine runs out. New wine is poured into new wineskins, only then can both the wine and wineskins be preserved Matthew 9:17 BAM…you didn’t see that one coming now did you? LOL FYI – I did attend convent school and know my Bible inside out 🙂 thou shall not judge ** 2 finger snaps**
A deeper change must happen for you to fulfill certain goals. They say to become successful, you must begin doing the things that successful people do TODAY. Your actions must change, which then forms habits that lead to succeess, never the other way round 🙂
I actually just got back home (Atlanta) after attending a 3-day health + life coaching immersion/conference in Phoenix, Arizona.
I am a student at Health Coach Institute (HCI), who is accredited by the International Coach Federation (ICF), the only globally recognized, independent credentialing program for coach practitioners. I will be graduating soon as a Health + Life coach and I chose a double major because life’s circumstances often lead to health and weight issues 🙂
Being at the event was a great reminder of my role in the global health industry:
- Health coaching is a much needed service
Never a time has there been a need for health coaches as now. Doctors (In the US) have realized that simply telling patients to lose weight in order to reclaim health hasn’t been successful and now we (health coaches) are being called upon to partner with them (Doctors) to help lower the statistic of 45% of 330 million Americans living with lifestyle diseases type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart conditions, HBP etc. The solution for a person ailing from lifestyle conditions or someone who is healthy but looking to shed some weight, regain confidence and feel good is the same: Sustainable Weight Loss.
As I stated in an email 2 weeks ago, weight loss Is not simply a vanity metric, for some, it’s a matter of life and death and my goal is to impact and empower women all over the world so that they can lead a better quality of life.
2. The Importance and Impact of coaching
My clients succeed not because of the tools, but a combination of proven science-based knowledge/facts, motivation, accountability, lessons, support + the right customized tools (nutrition + workouts) all encapsulated in coaching through habit change. I have invested in years of education and personal experience in this field and my success metric or KPI (key performance indicator) is not having you lose weight + transforming your body but ensuring that you’re able to seamlessly continue with the new sustainable healthy living habits long term and not regain the weight. See some of my testimonials by clicking -> Coaching testimonials
Habits are indeed at the very core of our health, finances, relationships, careers…our lives. For them to change, thoughts/beliefs, words, actions etc. must also change. Quoting Mahatma Ghandi
“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”
The good news – It’s possible to change your habits at any time. It all begins with an ACTION. Would you like to recommit to your health or weight loss goals as the new month of MAY begins?
Ponder this (regarding your health or weight loss)
- What are 2 things that keep you from achieving optimal health or weight loss?
- What do you think you need to do to get started? Share your feedback for number 1 and 2 in the comments and I will respond
There is usually an assumption that you need to take drastic steps/actions to begin your journey (join a gym + workout 6 days a week, stop eating carbs)…this is all FALSE.
“Small hinges swing big doors” W. Clement Stone
It’s not big actions that bring about big change. It’s the small consistent actions/steps that lead to great results
For example – You don’t work out or eat clean for 1 week to lose weight. It’s eating clean and working out over months that leads to transformation. You might also know this as the compound effect.
What does it take to repeat good nutrition + working out every day without fail, as though automatically? Replacing our current habits with new actions consistently over time.
Keep pondering…
- What small step can you take today?
- Are you capable of making it a priority, committing and investing the needed time, energy?
If you’re truly serious about beginning your health journey, would you promise yourself to follow a well laid out plan?
Here is a ’test’ to test your seriousness…
Try my 10 day detox plan. Change your actions for 10 days…
But wait…
Did you know that 60% of people who do my 10 day Detox FAIL! WHY?
- They go into it thinking “oh I simply have to eat these items for 10 days…it must be easy.” They get shocked at the power of food and give up when the going gets tough! It’s like entering a marriage expecting it to ALWAYS be a bed of roses and not understanding that there will be challenges along the way, but you choose to go through them with your partner.
- They might go the entire 10 days and make great progress after which, they resume previous habits which takes them back to square one, and then they swear that nothing works. This happens when you fail to realize that your habits for the days are setting you up to embrace them long term.
Here are 5 hacks that I personally use when about to embark on anything…
- #FACTS – Go into the 10 Day Detox KNOWING that it will be TOUGH and be willing to do WHATEVER It takes to succeed. Say to yourself “I AM NOT A QUITTER” – Anything worth having, Is worth fighting for/working hard for so be ready to go all the way.
- Go into the 10 day program with a WINNERS attitude and prepare to overcome any challenges that will try to throw you off during the 10 days #MENTALREADINESS my favorite affirmation for this is “I GOT THIS” say this to yourself. You MUST be your greatest cheerleader!
- Remind yourself WHY you need to do this. What will losing weight, increasing energy, feeling lighter, sleeping better at night, fitting your old smaller clothes…what will the above do for you, your spouse, kids, business, employee…your life? Conversely, what will happen if you do nothing and your weight keeps increasing or health keeps deteriorating? Say to yourself…“Nobody else can do this for me. I MUST do this for ME”
- Understand that the 10 day detox is only the BEGINNING – in other words, once day 10 is done, you cannot GO BACK to your old habits of living/eating…stick to the ->click link >>> 30 day post-detox plan! Envision yourself succeeding and say to yourself “I will not undo my Victory, I will keep working”
- You will need support! Going at it alone can be tough! Join the 10 day detox community which happens to be starting the next challenge on Tuesday, May 13th after mother’s day 🙂 -> click link >>>facebook.com/groups/10daybodydetox
If you dig deep and complete the 10 day detox here is what I Promise you:
- You will LOSE WEIGHT
- You will FEEL like a new person
- You will experience ENERGY and MENTAL CLARITY
- You will BECOME a new happier, person…
If you’ve never done the 10 day detox before OR have done it and have failed…
Would you like to recommit yourself, your health and try the 10-day detox with a new mindset? Would you like to say YES to yourself and mean it this time with a NEW WINNERS attitude? GREAT!

Jane, I send a note requesting your support on my weight loss journey and I didn’t hear from you.
Hi Regina, unfortunately, due to the high amount of emails, I am 4 weeks behind/back logged. However, at the bottom of each weekly email I do always provide the many ways I can assist you and all you have to do is either click links for each ebook program, learn more + purchase or if interested in weight loss coaching, follow the links provided for sign up. On the blog i’ve done the same. If you’re ready, take action 🙂

Thanks, Jane!
Jane, What you did for me during the body transformation was priceless, you held my hand and never gave up on me. Now am healthier and a happy person and walk with my shoulders held high knowing what to do and when to do it. Always a fun of your articles.
Hi Magda, How are you! I was honored to coach you through the body transformation program. Thank you for investing in yourself, your health and trusting me to walk the journey with you. I am so so proud of you, and even more proud because even after the program was done, you kept making even more progress on your own! I am glad that the program helped you form long term and sustainable habits, while still allowing you to enjoy carbs/starch on a daily basis and even treats (cake was your thing) 🙂 If you ever need anything, I’m a text away…good luck and keep up the good work!
Wow, quite insightful.

can you do a detox plan while on medication?
I would advise you first finish the medication
My problem is taking cabs at dinner and portion control. Still no specific time for eating. Plz help on that
Is “Workout101” same as “drop it like a Squat”.?
drop it like a squat is a squat challenge ebook while workout 101 is an entire workout program
Thank you Jane..God bless you
I am inspired. Let me plan for the next session coz pesa saa hii hakuna, hopefully will be there next group
Question mammii and I commend you for what you’re doing you lil’ entrepreneur you. I wanna do this. Will I be hungry?? Hahaha like most men I love food, I have much more self control than in my 30s but I hate being hungry (and don’t tell me I have a sweet tooth)…its actually why I fight for justice and rights because I can’t believe a human going hungry 🙁
Thanks!
Hey B…hunger is NOT a bad thing if you’re trying to lose weight or get healthy as your body adapts to clean food etc.
thanks for sharing, i leave in lower kabete and i work in thika kindly add other towns to ur list like thika
thanks for sharing
Hi Jane
Thank you for your encouragement I started drifting again after a good progress and gained back the 4kgs I had lost. But I am willing to join in the detox starting 13 May and there after the 30day clean eating. So God help me
I am ready!
Thanks Jane getting there😊
Very insightful.
I’m inspired , I’ve done detox before, succeeded once, failed severally. This time I’m determined to change my ways. I started yesterday with a prepared mind. And reading this has made me even more positive amidst my anxiety and depression problem.
Thanks for your educative health topics. You inspire us Jane.
thank you so much, this is awesome!
Thanks Jane, so much inspired….Getting Ready!
Thanks soo much..you are really a gift from God to us
