Hi, I'm Gen, Women's Weight Loss Expert, CNC & NLP Master Practitioner and the founder of the Happy Bod Squad. I've been helping career oriented women lose weight, gain confidence, create more energy AND feel sexy and confident in their own skin for the past 8 years.
I've coached over 1,200 women and helped them ditch the diet mentality through my online women's health program, The Happy Bod Squad.
After going through my own weight loss journey of losing (and keeping off) over 50lbs, I know what it’s like to let the way you feel about your body stop you from going after what you truly want. I let my weight define my own worth when it came to my ability to be happy, have meaningful relationships, enjoy a healthy social life, and have a career that fulfills me.
I spent YEARS trying to lose weight and gain confidence, but every diet or workout program I tried was too intense, complex, restrictive, or confusing. I felt like I was being forced to choose between my happiness and my health...and that's exactly why I created the Happy Bod Squad. Now, my mission is to empower women to find happiness in their health in a way that feels easy and sustainable so you can have the BODY and LIFE you've always wanted.

My athletic background playing high level hockey in Canada allowed me to transform my love for physical fitness into a career focused on holistic wellness and lifestyle transformation. This has given me opportunities to work alongside elite athletes and women who are looking to regain their self confidence through prioritizing a healthy, balanced lifestyle. I have proudly worked in the wellness industry for 14+ years and started my coaching journey in January 2015. I am a firm believer in the power of small, lasting changes that support overall wellbeing, and I find true passion in helping clients embrace a balanced life filled with vitality, confidence, and resilience. Through a custom prepared game plan, mindfulness practices, and lifestyle adjustments, I empower my clients to jump in the driver’s seat and finally take control of their health.

Outside of coaching, I am a dedicated dog mom and love to travel the world with my husband. I come from a family of confident, driven and powerful women who have all helped me blossom into who I am today.

Having spent the past decade immersed in the health and fitness industry as a whole, I’ve began specializing in women’s holistic health through weight loss & lifestyle change. I help clients achieve a transformation that’s meaningful from the inside out—building both a healthy body and a resilient mind.
I have a special place in my heart for those who feel misled by traditional diet industry protocols that often promise fast results but fail to deliver lasting health. I’m also passionate about supporting individuals aiming to improve their health as a defense against disease and physical ailments. I have had numerous tragic familial health experiences that have created this permanent fixture in my heart to lead others into their strongest healthiest selves.
One of my guiding philosophies is: *“Your health is your biggest life responsibility.“* Because where would you truly be without it? The work that I do is my forever contribution to society.
Coach Ariel
Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, Certified Mastery Method Life Coach
​
I’ve worked in the fitness industry for 7 years as a PT, kickboxing instructor and online health & fitness coach. I specialize in fat loss, body recomp, performance based nutrition and macro coaching. My goal for clients is to help them reach THEIR peak physique and performance while feeling stronger and more confident in their skin and taking up space in the weight room. To me, the goal of being healthy + fit is to experience MORE of life, not less of it. I love when clients see all the work they do inside the gym enhance their daily activities outside the gym.
I have a foundation's first approach and believe simple, sustainable + nailing the basics gets the best results. My goal is always to empower you with education, skills + support to achieve your goals + sustain them for life! Outside the gym you can catch me at the beach or a local coffee shop.

I have been helping people create a healthier lifestyle that is both fulfilling and sustainable for the past 9 years. Growing up, I struggled with body image and was constantly stuck in the yo-yo dieting cycle. When I found the gym and how good it felt to be strong, it completely changed my mindset on how I viewed myself and what I was capable of. After having my daughter, my passion became teaching other women how to build a healthier mindset, consistent habits, and self-love in order to achieve their goals.
As a mother and a military wife, I understand how easy it is to put your health and goals on the back burner; my mission in life is to educate women on how to properly fuel their body in a way that is not restrictive or shame-based, to show them that exercise can be FUN and not a form of punishment, and to empower them to live fully and unapologetically as strong, confident women in every facet of their lives.
Coach Ayla
Certified Personal Trainer (PT), Registered Holistic Nutritionist (RHN), and Registered Orthomolecular Health Practitioner (ROHP)
As a competitive athlete growing up,I have always had a passion for the health and wellness industry. From a young age I dove into any opportunity that allowed me to challenge my body both physically and mentally. I grew up with a strong presence in competitive sports. Soccer, swimming, marathon running, triathlons, anything that challenged both my body and mind. This served as an aggregate to my desire to better understand how to support the body from a holistic perspective.
After understanding how unique and important our bodies are, I decided to further my education in holistic nutrition where I actively learned to understand bio-individual needs through a holistic lens.
With 10+ years in the nutrition and fitness industry, I strongly believe that everyone is unique and as a result deserves to be understood as so.
