About Julie
Hi Everyone!
I have spent most of my life exploring how to hone the body, mind, and spirit to become healthier, happier, more energetic, less stressed, and more productive. I believe in personalized lifestyle solutions; every person, company, and institution is unique and deserves specialized attention.
As a child, I was an Olympic aspiring gymnast training under Russian coaches – an intensive experience that taught me discipline and how to work incrementally to achieve mastery of my body. But it was my study of yoga, meditation, and nutrition that gave me insight into the importance of mastering and balancing not just my physical body, but all aspects of myself, including my mind and spirit. I also came to realize that developing and cultivating ambition, passion, discipline, courage, resilience, balance, resourcefulness, and self-acceptance is critical to optimal well-being.
I grew up in New York City where I still live with my teenage daughter. I am the first to reap the benefits of my holistic methodology, with abundant energy to enjoy yoga, running, tennis, skiing, hiking, and various other workout and athletic modalities, as well as mindfulness, breathing, and meditation practices. My lifestyle balances wellness with family, friends, and professional engagements harmoniously.
I work with corporate entities, non-profit organizations, educational institutions, and individuals. Together we identify and assess needs and goals. Then we create and implement strategy to achieve them. While I emphasize plant-based nutrition, exercise, yoga, mindfulness/meditation, and sleep, our work touches all aspects of health.
