Consulting & Wellness Programming

Develop the people who coach. Feed the teams who care.

Two ways I work with mission-aligned organizations — strengthening how your people coach and lead, and helping teams build healthy habits and grow together.


For coaching & leadership teams

Develop coaches who get results — and leaders who keep them.

If you run a health-focused organization, a coaching team, or a wellness program, I help you raise the bar on how your people coach and lead. As a 3x nonprofit CEO, advanced-coaching faculty member, and coach leader in healthcare tech, I translate theory into skills your team can use Monday morning.

  • Coach & leadership development workshops (live or asynchronous)
  • Skill-building instruction that connects theory to practice
  • New-coach onboarding & team capability building
  • Keynotes & motivational talks for coaching teams
  • 1:1 mentorship for wellness professionals pursuing mastery

For workplaces, organizations & communities

Plant-based culinary wellness your team will actually enjoy.

As a board-certified health coach and author of eight vegan cookbooks, I run hands-on culinary experiences that build real, lasting habits — and are genuinely fun. In person or virtual, for a team of twelve or an audience of a hundred.

Team-Building Cooking Class

A two-hour hands-on class for 12–15 in person, or 100+ virtually. Your team cooks a nourishing plant-based meal together, with guidance and plenty of flavor. Recipes provided (ingredients too, if in person).

Lunch & Learn Cooking Demo

A one-hour demonstration focused on accessible, everyday wellness meals. Includes food samples or a recipe packet. In person or virtual.

About JL

I'm a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) with a Master of Science in college student personnel administration and nearly 30 years in higher education and the nonprofit sector — including executive director roles at three nonprofits: a Chicago rape crisis center, a New York literary arts organization, and an international foundation working to end violence against women and girls.

Today I develop high-performing coaching teams in healthcare tech and teach Advanced Wellness Coaching as adjunct faculty at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions and the Center for Creative Leadership. I'm also a certified cognitive and memory coach, diabetes prevention coach, master vegan lifestyle coach and educator, yoga teacher, and mindfulness instructor.

I'm the author of eight vegan cookbooks, a former vegan dining critic for the Colorado Springs Gazette and Indy, and trained at the Natural Gourmet Institute, Organic Avenue, the Christina Pirello School, Main Street Vegan Academy (where I'm now faculty), and PCRM's Food for Life program.
