When Sarah first joined my program, her goal was weight loss – but what’s been even more powerful is how she’s transformed her mindset and strength along the way.
In 8 months, Sarah has lost 37.2 pounds, but more than that, she’s become someone who consistently shows up for herself, no matter what life throws her way. She’s faced some big challenges – caring for her mother, changing careers, thyroid issues, perimenopausal hormone swings, and back pain – but her commitment to training and nourishing her body has never wavered.
What sets Sarah apart is how she thinks. She’s done the work mentally – from journaling and deep self-reflection to completing my Pivot Mindset Challenge. One of the strategies that’s helped her most is focusing on her future self.
She shared this with me:
“I remind myself that the guilt of skipping a workout or overeating is worse than just doing it. I tell myself, ‘Tomorrow Sarah will thank me for this.’ And when tomorrow comes, I actually do thank ‘Yesterday Sarah’ for her good decisions!”
Sarah also uses delayed gratification as a mindset tool. If she wants something – a treat, a reward – she makes herself earn it by hitting a goal. That simple shift helps her stay focused, driven, and intentional.
And the results speak for themselves:
✔️ 37.2 pounds lost
✔️ Stronger than ever
✔️ Just did her first pull-up (!)
✔️ Asked for gym equipment for her birthday 😄
Sarah is a beautiful example of what’s possible when you focus on who you want to become – and train not just your body, but your mind.

Melanie, I seriously cannot thank you enough for your hard work, you are just the best! You spend all this time looking through my nutrition and watching my videos and really supporting me (and your other clients of course). It is so encouraging to know you have my back, my best interests in mind, and you are gentle but firm and honest. 💕💪🙏
Your transformation plan and check-ins are worth their weight in gold and I appreciate you sooooo much!
Like many women who join my programs, Sarah fell in love with training – and got so into it, she transformed her laundry room into an inspiring workout space. Fair warning: home renovations are a common side effect of falling in love with strength training!
