Let me tell you a little something about Kieta. She is more than just my coach, she is my friend. She says her work is like being a sister. Yeah... my real sister could take a few lessons! Her love and exceptance has encouraged me to take on things that I kept putting off because of fear and self doubt.
She’s not perfect but then again, who wants to work with someone who is perfect? a) they don’t exist and b) Even if they did exist, you’d just feel like crap telling all of your deepest thoughts and insecurities to someone who wouldn’t even come close to getting it. Besides, Kieta is very willing to share ups and downs of her own experiences to help motivate as well as hopefully guide you to steer yourself away from pain she caused herself. I really value her openness.
A weight loss surgery recipient herself, she helped me to work on loving myself, no matter how my clothes were fitting or if I had snuck some extra chocolate that wasn’t part of my diet plan. Her explanations of forgiveness, integrity and simplicity reminded me that I knew how I wanted to live my life. I didn’t need anyone else’s feedback and I didn’t need to beat myself up when I fell short, just get back up and recommit to my goals.
If I had to choose just one word to describe my work with Kieta it would be… Freeing. I have stopped being my own worst enemy and there is just such amazing freedom in that. Thank you, Kieta, for believing in me when I didn’t yet, for seeing me and holding up a mirror so I could see me too. Working with you is the best gift I have ever given myself.
