About Me

My name is Darleen Barnard and I am a Certified Health Coach and Personal Trainer specializing in weight loss and behavior change for busy working adults.

I believe that busy working adults, who frequently sacrifice their health for their careers and families, deserve to finally put themselves first. As a recovering workaholic in the healthcare field and mom to two busy children, I know there is nothing more rewarding than a successful career and raising a family. Unfortunately, I also know the toll it takes on our body. After two decades of burning the candle at both ends, I learned the hard way what happens when we consistently put ourselves last.

As a Health Coach, I partner with my clients to help them take control of their health and wellness. Together, we set goals around fitness, nutrition, mindfulness, and weight and then use behavior change strategies to achieve a healthier, balanced lifestyle that they can maintain for the rest of their lives. Unlike trainers or dieticians who primarily focus on one area, I use a holistic health coaching approach to total wellness.

I have helped thousands of clients all over the world improve their overall health and wellness and I am excited to help you next!
