“I can't speak highly enough about Obsidian Wellness! Working with Joe is a great experience. He's not the first trainer I've worked with, but he's definitely been the most impactful. To start Joe listens, like actually hears you, what your concerns are, where you may have struggles, and applies all of that to the workouts. I was never in a position where I felt like I was doing something where I could be injured or I wasn't prepared. The increases in my workouts were gradual and although I felt the difference week to week, it was great to see myself be able to do more, it never felt like I was doing anything for the hell of it.
Most importantly, Joe helped me change my relationship with how I view wellness. For a long time my relationship to weight loss and wellness was very all or nothing, either I'm doing 100% of what I'm supposed to and eating super clean and working out, or I mess up and I go right back to habits I've tried to break. For the first time I understand that a "bad" day or a day where I have more dessert than usual doesn't mean I've failed or I've negated all the work I've done, it's just part of life. That has been the most transformative part of all of this for me and I'm super grateful.”
