Nutrition.
Strength Training.
Behavior Change.
Fuel with intention, lift with purpose, and live life the way you define it.
Hi, I’m Coach Denise!
I’m the founder of DEFINE. With an M.Ed., credentials as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, and certifications in nutrition and strength training (PN1-SSR, NASM-CPT), I built DEFINE to help women with nutrition guidance, personal training, and building healthy habits.
Through online coaching, I work 1:1 with women to support them in transforming both their minds and bodies.
I use evidence-based strategies rooted in behavioral science and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients create lasting change. Nutrition is unique for each person — it’s about learning what works for your body and lifestyle. I believe strength training is a way to build muscle, confidence, and resilience.
My coaching philosophy centers on alignment: building habits that honor your values, support your goals, and help create the life you want to live.
Outside of coaching, you’ll usually find me spending time with the people I love, trying new foods, working out, or exploring new places. I value kindness, curiosity, effort, connection, and living fully — and I bring those into everything I do.
Together, we define your…
Nutrition.
This is where optimal meets practical. I offer science-backed nutrition guidance tailored to your goals, your lifestyle, and the foods that bring you joy — including those tied to your culture and environment. Whether it’s structured macro tracking or a more intuitive approach, the focus is always on fueling your body in a way that supports your individualized needs.
Personal training.
I build functional, intentional programs that support the way you want to move. Strength isn’t just about lifting heavier — it’s about moving well, moving often, and making it work for your lifestyle. I define strength with you, based on your goals, your schedule, and what your body needs to feel strong, capable, and confident.
Your life.
This is where behavior science meets real-life application. I use evidence-based strategies, including principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help you build a values-aligned life — one grounded in clarity, consistency, and choice. We will work on awareness, emotional flexibility, and committed action — so the way you eat, move, and live supports who you are and what matters most. Most importantly, you will get to define success in a way that feels true to you — the one that feels whole, present, and fulfilled.
