Organizations: Let Me Help You

Do you want to deeply engage women in their own behavior change process and produce intrinsic motivation and sustainable behavior? I offer behavior change consulting and trainings like you’ve never experienced before. I am a nationally recognized authority in the areas of producing sustainable motivation and health behavioral changes IN WOMEN. I consult with health care organizations and train their clinicians and staff. Because I am a motivation and behavior psychology researcher and also have a graduate degree related to program development and evaluation, I am uniquely qualified to translate complex research theory and findings into easy-to-understand, concrete recommendations that clinicians can use to improve their communication about, and prescription of, lifestyle changes to their female patients.

The most important thing I have learned is that it is ESSENTIAL to re-brand exercise and other health behaviors in order to produce motivation and behavior that individuals can sustain across their lifespan. Let me help you achieve this.

I can assist you in developing and evaluating the most effective messaging, communication, and programming to create sustainable behavioral changes among female consumers, patients and/or employees. This will enable you to achieve optimal behavioral responses, a superior ROI on your investment in prevention and improved health care savings.

I am also the perfect ambassador to inform, entertain, and motivate your female employees, customers, patients and community because my keynotes and workshops generate new insights and motivate realistic action that can be sustained. Targeting women for lifestyle changes is smart and strategic. Why? See inside Corporate services

Dr. Michelle Segar

“Now 8 months after working with you, I am still regularly exercising; doing a variety of activities that I enjoy and that fit into my life. As you suggested, I waited to work on my weight until I felt that I had internalized the foundational behaviors. I am now doing Weight Watchers for the weight loss phase of your program, and am excited to tell you that I was given a blue ribbon for being halfway to my “ideal weight”. I owe enormous amounts to you and your program, Michelle.”

“I signed up for EssentialSteps when I was 38, nine years ago, because it sounded like something I could use. Working with Michelle gave me a foundational understanding about fitness and creating realistic goals. I used the program concepts 4 years later to help me recover from a hip replacement.”
