Do you want to be healthier, happier and more productive...but you don't know where to turn anymore?


If you can't count on both hands how many diets or New Year's resolutions you've set to get healthier, only to fall right back into your old habits when *life* gets in the way...


Keep reading!

Does this sound like you?


In a moment of great motivation & determination , you decide : THIS is the time you get your health in check


You write your health and weight loss goals into the calendar. You're starting on Monday.



  • You pick the newest "transformational" diet to follow. Your friend Susan lost 30 pounds in 2 months! If she can do it, so can you, right?
  • You download the food tracking app. MyFitnessPal is now on your homepage, ready to go. You've set your body measurements, your personal data, and you're set up with a (unrealistically low) number of calories to limit yourself to.
  • You even join or gym or hire a personal trainer! You figure that with that kind of accountability, there's no way this new weight loss attempt can fail.
  • You can out your fridge and pantry, purge your kitchen of your "weak" foods. You know those foods you can't just have ONE off? Gone are the Oreos, the chocolate/mint ice cream ,the Doritos.
  • You print some new meals plans, follow "healthy recipes" social media accounts and you're excited for this new lifestyle change you're about to make.

Monday morning arrives. Day 1! Your willpower is through the roof. Your motivation is higher than ever, and you're well prepared to make this successful. The time is now! Failure is not an option.


And things go really well...


You're meal prepping every Sunday. You're making a separate meal from the rest of your family, feeling proud of your healthy choices. Your energy starts improving and you even feel your clothes getting looser. The feeling is almost euphoric.


You start getting comments from people around you. People are noticing the changes in you and you start thinking that although this diet is hard, and you feel like you're giving up so much, it is SO WORTH IT. Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels, right?


You're starting to feel confident again. You haven't felt this good in years!


But...then something happens.


It could be within days, weeks or in rare cases, a few months. But something inevitability throws you off track.


Maybe a stressful day at work, an unexpected family issue, a vacation, a birthday celebration, a fight with your spouse, or just that one social event that had all the foods you've been restricting, and you just couldn't resist.


You think, I'll just have ONE treat. I deserve it. I've been working so hard, and doing so well. One "cheat meal" won't kill me. I'll get right back on track tomorrow.


But it's never just ONE meal. The cheat meal turns into a cheat day. The cheat day turns into a cheat week.


You figure that if you've already made a "bad" food decision, might as well go all-in... having ALLS the foods you've been so desperately craving before you get back on the wagon.


The sneaky part of your brain is saying "since we slipped up already, might as well keep it going. We'll start again on Monday".


But getting back "on plan" isn't as easy as you thought. Old, familiar habits come rushing back.


Confidence, motivation, and commitment take a huge hit. You quickly forget all the healthy behaviours you fighting to hard to stick to.


Your health resolution becomes a distant (yet painful) memory.


Until...something sparks that determination again, and the cycle restarts...



Here's why this is so discouraging

With each failed attempt, you blame yourself and your (seemingly) lack of willpower. And the more this happens, the more you lose confidence in your ability to ever get healthier.


You see yourself as either being "good" (on plan) or "bad" (off the wagon).


With each new failed diet attempt, you get closer to throwing in the towel altogether, telling yourself that maybe nothing will ever work for you. Maybe your goals just aren't achievable, and you start convincing yourself that things "aren't that bad". You can probably be content with living a life you're not particularly happy with, or excited about (although you don't really believe this, but you don't know what else to do).


You think you can settle for mediocre.


And most crippling of all : with each new cycle, your brain actually wires itself to set you up for failure next time. It remembers this sequence of events, thoughts, feelings, and actions and will default to this same pattern in the future.


Why?


Because our brain gets really good at what is repeated. Our brain recognizes what is familiar, and likes to do MORE of it.


Without learning a new strategy that breaks away from traditional diets and weight loss plans (that only get you temporary results), you are destined to repeat this crushing cycle over and over again.


When will it end?


When will we finally acknowledge that diets DO. NOT.WORK?


Here's a dirty little secret that the diet industry doesn't want you to know


Diets have been set up to fail.


Have you ever wondered why so many women become lifelong dieters?


That's because the diet & weight loss industry is worth $66 BILLION and growing. However, there's no evidence that people are becoming slimmer as a result.


In fact, the opposite seems to be true. There's actually evidence that weight loss diets don't work in the long term and may actually lead to weight gain.


Research shows that the majority of people will gain back most of the weight they lose while dieting and will even end up weighing more than before.

....

Are you beginning to see that it's not YOUR fault? You've just been taught a method that has been meant to NOT work all along.


But with your permission, I'd love to teach you a proven method to lasting, sustainable and genuine health.


"I wish people could see how I was VS who I am now after working with Sabrina. It’s such a huge difference and everyone in my life has noticed. For me , and I’m not even exaggerating, it’s been life changing. It’s meant everything to me. It’s amazing to me to be able to wake up and know that I’m naturally a healthy person now. It’s just who I am. I’m a person who enjoys eating healthy, and I get up early, don't need to worry about dieting anymore. I’m intentional with my days, and my days have just changed. I’m a different person and I’ve never felt happier in my life."

-Amanda

"I'm so thankful for Sabrina. Even just in the first 4 weeks of the program, I knew this was the best decision I had ever made. I had learned so much and was still learning . I stopped feeling guilty after eating, I stopped over-eating, over-snacking. I am not dieting at all for the first time in my life and am still losing weight! I don't feel fat anymore even though I still have a ways to go. This program showed me that it was never about weighing less, but being healthy again. I feel more confident & energetic. I am happier and for the first time in my life, I didn't give up after 2 week! Sabrina gave me something priceless.

The Healthy By Habit 1:1 Private Coaching Program

Change Your Habits, Change Your Life

Healthy By Habit is the ONLY coaching program of its kind. It's a 

habit-based & evidence-backed personalized approach to long-term health & behaviour change for the busy, driven mid-lifer who wants reclaim her health ...

...who's ready to break up with ineffective dieting & finally feel proud in her body again


Let’s be honest…​


You’re the type of woman who likes to get things done ASAP, and you get discouraged when your own health can’t keep up with your fast-paced life.​


You're discouraged because you've managed to be successful in other areas of your life, yet your health is the ONE thing you can't seem to get a hold of permanently.


You're a Type A perfectionist who either does something perfectly...or you don't do it at all. And unfortunately, this all-or-nothing mentality has you yo-yoing from one extreme to another when it comes to healthy eating and exercising.

​

This leaves you unhappy with how you look and feel. You're exhausted all the time, lacking the energy to get up and play with your kids, which leaves you feeling like you're not being the best role model for them.


And most important, you're upset with yourself because you can't seem to stick to anything, and you just want to be able to make healthy living part of your every day without it feeling like a struggle all the time.


You're looking for a way of life that you can confidently stick to so that you can finally stop "starting over". You want to stop the cycle of gaining and losing. You want to live a happy, balanced life free of guilt and shame about choices you're making. 


Am I right?


​But you can't seem to figure out what's REALLY blocking you from getting your health under control and finally changing your habits for good.


​(because work and life has gotten in the freakin' way, right?!)

"I had honestly been struggling whenever it came to my weight basically forever. I never understood why. It didn't make sense to me . I think I'm doing everything right and no results, or I do get minimal results , but end up binge eating anyway. I was becoming so depressed it was not healthy. With Sabrina, it hall became clear. I realized what wasn't working. I lost 15 pounds working with her and continue to lose weight, but most importantly, I feel healthier. I still eat the foods I love & cooking in the kitchen is not as dreadful as it was turning out to be. I'm so happy I took the step forward to a healthier lifestyle with Sabrina. I look forward to reaching my future goals and being a good example for my son, as well, not being exhausted when it comes to playing sports with the kids or hiking my favourite mountain! Sabrina pays attention to the whole of you, not just your weight! "

-Kashiah

The truth is, old habits die hard because they are literally wired into our brains.


But when you change your habits, you can change your life.



​And here's some great news: any habit - no matter how stubborn or ingrained - is within your power to change.


​And once you know what it really takes to be in control of your health again - and feel strong & confident - there's literally NOTHING you can't achieve. 


​That’s because it’s all connected. When this area of your life gets moving in the right direction, it all gets better.


​When you’re living up to YOUR full potential, you’re empowered to get out and embrace life.


​And I work WITH your life.


​There’s a one-size-fits-all diet or lifestyle, and I would NEVERRRR force you to drink only shakes, eat paleo, eliminate carbs, snack on nothing but kale chips, or be a vegan (unless that’s your thing, of course!).


What I'm saying is....

"I wish I had learned the things I learned with Sabrina so much earlier on in my life, instead of having to figure out in my 50's after what feels like 100 failed diet attempts. When I started working with Sabrina, I knew it was the last time I was "starting over". No more "I'll start again on Monday or on the first of the month, or on New Year's." This program is taking everything that you think you know, stripping it down and getting clear on what will work for YOU. You could try to spend years, energy and money trying to figure it out on your own, but the benefit of working with Sabrina is she tells you exactly where your focus needs to be, getting you from point A to point B so much easier and quicker. I could not recommend this program enough".

Frequently Asked Questions

What others have asked before saying "HECK YES" to the Healthy By Habit Private Coaching Program

Will I have to eat a certain way or follow a strict meal plan?

Heck no. This will be a 100% tailored and personalized approach that will work for YOU. Besides, I'm a health coach , not a dietician. Instead of blindly following a meal plan that doesn't make sense for your preferences or lifestyle , we will work together to create a healthy eating lifestyle you can maintain for the rest of your life. I'll help remove the overwhelm and confusion from the nutrition world, and teach you how to approach food properly. You'll become an expert on your own body so that you can confidently make your own decisions about the food & eating habits that work for you, never having to turn to Dr. Google for nutrition Qs again.

I've wasted plenty of time & money on programs that never worked. How will this be different?

That is precisely why I created this personalized 1:1 coaching program. I will be by your side every step of the way, giving you the expert guidance, support and accountability that you need if ever you have questions, concerns or challenge. The Healthy By Habit process is designed so that you never have to invest in programs again. This investment will be the last time you have to "start over", ending the "on the wagon, off the wagon" cycle once and for all as you learn the ultimate follow-through framework. This process will be like nothing you will have ever tried before, built on the psychology of change designed to create the healthiest and happiest version of you, once and for all.

How much time will I have to dedicate to this? My life is crazy busy and I'm not sure this is the right time.

I work with clients from all walks of life, many of them being driven, high-performing professional with high demands on their time and energy- juggling work, a family and life. However, since this coaching program is 100% tailored to YOUR lifestyle and schedule, they all find it to be extremely manageable. We don't rush a thing, and we scale back if necessary, making sure that each and every habit you are implementing is rock-solid and set in stone, making your new lifestyle feel natural, effortless and automatic.



I have weight to lose. Will I lose weight if I invest in coaching?

I get this question a lot, and I understand why. Weight loss is probably the main reason you've wasted so much time, energy, and money on past attempts.

So I'll lay out the facts. The whole aim of Healthy by Habit is to show you how to create healthy habits that last. Healthy habits that you enjoy. It's not a diet or weight loss program, it's a permanent lifestyle change that will help you establish lasting healthy habits.

That being said, have many former clients reported weight loss after successfully mastering their healthy habits? Abso-freaking-lutely.

But, in order to achieve healthy weight management, we must change our behaviours FIRST , leading to overall improved health and quality of life.


I've become really skeptical of any health & wellness program. How can I be sure this is right for me?


Healthy By Habit is an exclusive, application only program. This isn't just a bunch of videos for you to watch and implement alone. It's an intimate, 1:1 experience for high-performing, driven women who is not afraid to take action and do what it takes to reclaim her health, knowing they'll have all the support, tools and accountability needed to turns goals into a reality.

Small Call to Action Headline

A note from Sabrina

I started dieting at the age of 16. I've eaten more boneless, tasteless chicken breast than anyone ever should in their lifetime.


I was a professional yo-yo dieter. Name a diet, I've tried it...or at least considered it. Low-carb, low-fat, paleo, calorie counting, 1200 calories, vegetarian..I've been around the block.


And some of them worked! I mean, I did lose and gain the same 10 to 15 pounds over and over again. The problem was, once the “end” arrived (if it ever did), old habits returned, along with extra pounds and feelings of guilt and disappointment.


I thought I kicked this “on-again/off-again” cycle when, in university, I found running and got a FitBit. I started severely cutting my calories, exercising 2 hours a day and isolating myself from most social gatherings. You can imagine that this way of eating, combined with my extreme exercising led to significant weight loss.


And to the outside world, (and at the time, to me) that was success!


But here was the problem…I was always tired, sore, moody, restless, foggy, anxious, and hungry (battling with carb and sugar cravings every day, especially at night). I felt exhausted, old, and hangry. It was the unhappiest I have ever been , but I felt stuck in the prison of my own body, terrified that if I gained weight by actually feeding my body what it needed or giving it rest, that would mean I'd go back to being "unhealthy".



But I was far from healthy. I was actually at the unhealthiest I've ever been, despite what the scale said


My idea of healthy was painfully corrupt. My relationship with food and my body was the worse it had ever been. I would force myself to run every day and was stuck in a "good" VS "bad" mindset. You wouldn't catch me dead eating a cookie. Like my life depended on it. Dieting stole years of my life from me, but the saddest part was skipping meals, passing up on family pasta nights, avoiding going to restaurants with my friends and forcing myself through workouts I hated every day.


All these efforts were considered "healthy" and "good" in my efforts to lose weight , but they were completely the opposite. Obsessing about being healthy is NOT healthy.


So I went to work on my mindset. I knew something had to change. I couldn't go on living this way. And as I opened my eyes to what real, genuine health really was, it changed my life.


And I know it will change yours too. I couldn't keep quiet about the (pardon my french) disgusting diet misinformation that was brainwashing so many women everywhere.


So I went back to school to get the credentials needed to serve women, beyond the quest for the perfect body. I became a certified Health Coach, opening my eyes to optimal health beyond the conventional fad diets.


Most importantly, I learned why mastering your habits is at the foundation of all lasting health behaviour change and healthy weight management.


I now have a thriving Health Coaching business helping clients from all over the world pursue genuine health and reclaim their life.


From the very bottom of my heart, I want to let you know that this is possible for you too, not matter how much of a lost cause you might feel like right now

.

And I can't wait to show you how.


"Before I started working with Sabrina, I was struggling with self-love, no structure and not having any clue if whatever diet I was doing was right for me. In the past, I have tried keto, Whole30, Intermittent Fasting, diet pills, Herbalife and a whole bunch of unrealistic magic shakes. CRAZY RIGHT,. Health coaching with Sabrina was different from anything I had ever done. It wasn't some diet. It made me aware of the mistakes I've been making in a way I never had before. I learned that 24 hours in a day is enough for me to accomplish my goals. Sabrina has helped me to LOVE myself, be more aware of my good & bad habits. She sparked that FIRE that was inside me, that I couldn't see because of the fog that was blocking my mindsetShe has made me feel like I'm a human and not perfect, since society has forced women to have to look a certain way in order to feel beautiful. I'm so happy I had the change to work with this AMAZING women. I'm grateful that has crossed my path. "
