“Heike helped me lose the weight I’d struggled with for years—and finally keep it off. Her nutrition coaching was exactly what I needed: supportive, honest, and full of real-life strategies that worked. Adding weekly Pilates sessions made all the difference. I feel stronger, more confident, and actually enjoy moving my body again. I just wish I had started sooner!”
