A Little About Me

Hi, I’m Jeffery James- but clients and friends call me Coach J.  I’m passionate about  helping folks get healthy, focusing on both mind and body.  I  specialize in guiding people who struggle  making real and lasting changes.  Whether the challenge lies with starting, with consistency, or simply feeling overwhelmed; I can help. 

My Bachelor's Degree in Sports and Health Sciences led me to a career as a Certified Health Coach and Personal Trainer. I have always been interested in health and wellness, even through my childhood.  But it wasn’t until I became an adult and joined the Air Force that I really gained the discipline I needed to achieve my physical potential. 

When I turned 25 I was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. It was a complete shock to myself and my family.  I was too young, healthy and active to have cancer. But it happened and my life changed in the blink of an eye. I immediately began treatment, and was later medically discharged from the military. After 28 long weeks of chemotherapy, I went into remission, but my body was weak and broken down.  So I made it my mission to get back to work rebuilding myself and I’ve come full circle.  

I’ve learned a lot from that experience about what’s really important in life. Since then, my health and wellbeing is and always will be my top priority. 

 I understand challenges because I’ve been through difficult ones myself.  I know how impossible it can seem to pick yourself up and commit to rebuilding. But I promise you, if I could do it you can too.  And I’m here to help you regardless of where you start. 

We can get you where you want to be. Let’s do this- together.
