Rise & Align has helped me so much professionally, creatively, and personally grow and shape the way I live currently and how I plan to prosper in the future.

Our group explored concepts like food, movement, relationships and abundance, which led to beneficial takeaways, vulnerable shares, and celebrating weekly highlights all within a safe and respectful environment that was created for a group of working professionals, parents, and people simply trying to find their footing in this lifetime to become better and simply to live better. I 100% would recommend investing your time, your money, and your ever so abundant energy to this program with a fearless leader/coach.

“Rise and Align isn't just a program; it's a transformational experience that leaves you with clarity and purpose. If you're ready for meaningful change in your life, I recommend starting here.”

My experience through the Rise and Align coaching program has truly been transformative. When I first signed up, my aim was simple: to be intentional with my time and create space during a new chapter, all while staying true to my core values. However, the program further exceeded my expectations. Under Liv’s guidance, I not only met my goals but reached another level of awareness. Coming back to this program has become a ritual that sets the stage for success in every new chapter of my life. I see the support I needed and leaned into this opportunity, to ensure my cup is full so I can give my best to others. The duration was even more so helpful, as it helped me build a strong foundation of “rituals” / “habits” The group dynamic was everything. We all had our tough moments, especially in the beginning when I was still tangled in the chaos of ‘busyness’. But our weekly calls, filled with real stories and unwavering support, kept us moving forward. We cheered each other on, celebrated wins, and talked each other through the challenges. My biggest takeaway, to ease up on myself. This program gently reminded me to release the unnecessary pressure I’d been placing on my own shoulders. It showed me that joy comes from simply being, from doing what I love without the weight of expectations. Liv and my group have been pillars of support throughout this journey. Rise and Align isn’t just a program; it’s a transformational experience that leaves you with clarity and purpose. If you’re ready for meaningful change in your life, I recommend starting here.

“Apart from the foundational habits, it is the internal shifts I am most grateful for— living aligned with values, being in flow with life, and loving & trusting oneself. “

The Rise and Align program came to me at a perfect time— I was settling back to the island, longing for change. Entering my 30s I also wanted to “get my life together”- which I achieved using Liv’s holistic approach in our weekly discussions. Another goal was to really hone in on what kind of life I wanted for myself, which later evolved into what kind of person did I want to become. Through Liv and I’s 1:1 sessions, we dove deeper to discover the answers. Apart from the foundational habits, it is the internal shifts I am most grateful for— living aligned with values, being in flow with life, and loving & trusting oneself. The feeling is freeing! Liv is an amazing coach, she often felt like a friend with her genuine and constant support. Her warmth, wisdom, and light can help you change your life. I’d recommend the program to anyone seeking for the same magic happen in their own.

“I was looking for more clarity, more ease, more alignment. What I got was a total mindset shift, and my expectations were greatly exceeded.“

I signed up for Rise and Align because I was looking for a way to invest in myself. I was looking for more. More clarity, more ease, more alignment. What I got was a total mindset shift, and my expectations were greatly exceeded. I am forever grateful for Liv and the group of ladies I shared this time with.

“Through Liv’s unbiased, compassionate and thoughtful manner, she helped me find myself again. It wasn't therapy. It was therapeutic.”

When I was at the lowest point that I have felt in my life, I didn’t think therapy was what I needed. So when I saw Liv’s life coaching announcement, I wanted to try it. I didn’t know her very well, but I loved her energy and her work. Through her unbiased, compassionate and thoughtful manner, she helped me find myself again. It wasn’t therapy. It was therapeutic. Her lessons, questions, technique and support gave me perspective and insight into myself. Without even realizing, she helped me see once again - what I want, what I need, what I deserve, and what I can achieve.

“Going back to Ina Wellness for the second time just reminded me of how great of a coach Liv is.”

Going back to Ina Wellness for the second time just reminded me of how great of a coach Liv is. She’s very patient, understanding, and amazing at what she does. She never failed to try her best to understand the challenges I was facing throughout the program and advise me with ways to overcome them. She truly was there every step of the way and I’m so grateful for a life coach like her. She’s so good that I wish I can be her client forever.

“Liv did not only help me achieve the goal but gave me the tools to continue to pursue whatever I set forward with an intentional mindset!”

 
I cannot express enough gratitude for Liv and The Rise & Align program!! The impact has truly been transformative & Life-Changing!

Within the past 8 years I somehow became an over-achieving stay-at-home mommy, trying to live up to outrageous standards!! I became unrecognizable to myself.. I desperately longed to feel like “ME” again.. I spent the past 2 years fully committed to myself and chose to start a small business.. It felt absolutely insane to start something so huge amidst the already full plate, but this was something FOR ME!! I needed something to help me focus on my goals, values, purpose and SELF!! Though inner work and growth was consistent, I still felt tangled, lost and chaotic.. I needed to connect the dots & cross the lines, of all the struggles and successes I had experienced thus far..

I set high expectations for the program and wanted fulfillment!! Having an experienced professional help me dissect the madness, was exactly what I needed!! From the initial questionnaire, to the week by week activities and reflections, this program had my heart on fire!! Liv did not only help me achieve the goal but gave me the tools to continue to pursue whatever I set forward with an intentional mindset!! I came out of the program feeling like I had finally come full circle!! “Grounded!!” “ROOTED!!” For the first time in a long time, I found this sense of inner peace!! Inspiration, creativity, purpose, balance, time management, nourishment, clarity, and confidence are just a few of the things I have gained from this program!! Gratitude is not the word I would use to express how much I appreciated and needed this.. I highly, highly recommend this program to those looking to get serious about themselves and their intentions!! FOREVER GRATEFUL!!

“I’d recommend this to anyone who is looking to take their self-development to the next level because I left with so much beyond my initial goals.”

It wasn’t until attending my first event with Ina wellness collective entering 2023 that drew me to make some shifts in my life. Each event I’ve attended felt so life changing.I always left light, supported & a desire to become a better version of myself. Once Liv launched her coaching program I knew that it was the perfect next step for me to elevate myself in my wellness journey. My initial goal was to gain more energy, incorporate more movement & bring in more motivation into my life. Liv’s holistic approach to the program has helped me step out of my comfort zone & dig deep in areas as a whole being that I’ve never thought I’d ever explore. Every time I felt like I was being challenged or not giving it my all she curated ways that would best support me in those moments. On top of her support she has also been so open to connecting me with individuals that would add value to my growth outside of the program wether it’s through career, fitness or health goals. I’d recommend this to anyone who is looking to take their self-development to the next level because I left with so much beyond my initial goals. I’ve also gained life tools & wisdom that I’m able to take on with me. Trusting Liv as my coach has transitioned a version of myself mentally, emotionally, physically & spiritually that I will forever be blessed for!

“As a result of this program, I can wholeheartedly say -- I love myself. I embrace myself. I accept myself. I can care for myself. I am grateful for myself. “

In 2021, I was one of Liv’s early coaching clients and kicked my holistic wellness journey into high gear. My first round was to prepare to grieve & be there and be strong for others. My second was to transition into putting myself first & to run a company. My third was to try to get pregnant & navigate pregnancy. My fourth (& definitely not last) was to transition from pre-partum through labor and into motherhood. As a result of this program, I can wholeheartedly say — I love myself. I embrace myself. I accept myself. I can care for myself. I am grateful for myself. If I ever needed it, I’d do this program over and over again in a minute.

“This program walked me into a holistic reset, allowed for self-discovery, has me now moving differently embracing new territory, and embodying self-preservation as Ritual.”

After what felt like so many years of carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders in the fast lane, I was starting to recognize that no matter what I was doing, I was constantly tired and riding rollercoasters with my energy. It was through Liv’s public talks that I understood that I was allowing “excuses” to take priority over every signal to SLOW DOWN and evaluate how I was taking care of myself. It was that spark of epiphany in the middle of huge life transitions that pushed me to jump on the opportunity with her coaching program, hoping that it would help me navigate my inability to recharge. Before the program, I always felt like I was hitting targets with being self-aware, but I didn’t expect that I would learn otherwise ~ learning and unlearning limiting beliefs and ideas; looking at wins differently; seeing the ripple effect of habit-stacking; designing a strategic lifestyle that applies to me; identifying gaps & roots of my energy issues; and gaining the tools to reconnect to my soul in the way that I deserve. This program walked me into a holistic reset, allowed for self-discovery, has me now moving differently embracing new territory, and embodying self-preservation as Ritual. Liv’s support each week, reflected back the courage I feel we all have to hold that step and gave me a newer, fresher respect on self-accountability. It was what I was desperately needing and I highly recommend the leap if your Spirit is making that call. You damn well deserve it.

“As a result of the program I was able to create a schedule that works for me where I could be an artist, take care of myself and my family, maintain my day job, while making time for rest and recharge.”

When I found the coaching program, I was focused on elevating my art practice professionally while moving into a new home and transition into a new job. I was ready to take that leap even though I knew there were so many other things in life that I had to juggle, on top of being a mother and partner. Since I saw Liv as an artist/creator in her own way, of Ina Wellness Collective, and I knew she would be able to guide me towards engaging with the community in my role as an artist. As a result of the program I was able to create a schedule that works for me where I could be an artist, take care of myself and my family, maintain my day job, while making time for rest and recharge. I was able to nurture some of my friendships, family relationships and create new relationships with the community. I learned that small joyful rituals, creating space for pause and reflection, and slow movement if done daily were powerful actions for me to nurture myself. Rest to receive became my mantra, which was difficult because I learned that I was conditioned to think that my worth was affiliated with my accomplishments. I was able to create special spaces in my new home and move in smoothly, have a healthy work/life balance, and gained many art opportunities along the way. Few of them include showing my paintings at the Guam Museum and UOG Isla Center, becoming a feature for a small artist documentary, and being able to share my story as an artist in the local newspaper. These are all things I never imagined I would accomplish during the 6 months of the program. In turn I am full of so much gratitude. I would recommend this program because you are provided with a well-resourced toolkit based on your goals, you are given guidance and space to explore the root of your emotions, and you’re encouraged to practice small healthy habits that will last long beyond the program is over. If you want something simpler, Liv is so flexible and great at designing the program to fit your needs. The entire program was structured and designed for me by Liv, and the whole experience became so beneficial, healing, and rewarding.

“The progress I saw each week was natural, creative, and truly of my own making! I no longer hesitate around food and love being in the kitchen. I discovered a passion for rising rituals, walking, and yoga. I continually reflect on those who are energy givers and energy drainers. But most of all, my pace and outlook to life has shifted.”

I met Liv attending my first Ina Wellness Full Moon Flow in April of this year. I felt drawn to her energy and knew I wanted to connect with her somehow in my wellness journey. When she later announced her coaching program, I was hesitant, but knew that I wanted to break free from the spiraling mindset I was caught up in—not knowing what ‘healthy’ looked like outside of being a former athlete. My initial goals for the program were to focus on my relationship with food and my body, movement outside of strict, intensive exercises, and to show up for the people that I love. With Liv’s guidance to help me reach these goals, I felt empowered in day-to-day decisions and inspired to follow where my interests led me…because everything is connected. In addition, she always advocated that change looks different for everyone, so she will show up in anyway that I needed. This sentiment lifted any and all pressure of growth being forced or made out of obligation. The progress I saw each week was natural, creative, and truly of my own making! I no longer hesitate around food and love being in the kitchen. I discovered a passion for rising rituals, walking, and yoga. I continually reflect on those who are energy givers and energy drainers. But most of all, my pace and outlook to life has shifted—I breathe in…I breathe out—knowing my existence in this realm is enough and that I am valued by those around me. My wellness journey does not end here. I recommend this program to anyone feeling overwhelmed, lost, and unbalanced. Liv will help you build personalized strategies for your journey and meet you with a kindness that amplifies the light within.

“The program left me with tools to ensure that I am prepared to take care of myself physically, mentally and spiritually.”

The months with Liv zoomed by, but left me with tools to ensure that I am prepared to take care of myself physically, mentally and spiritually. Balance is something that I will always be striving for and will take continual work, but what sessions have taught me is to grant myself some grace and pick things back up. You aren’t going to have the perfect diet, exercise regime or mental space all the time, but being kind to yourself for your imperfections and being able to get back into routines that serve you is what is important. I highly recommend working with Liv if you are looking for something beyond a diet and workout plan. She customizes sessions based on your needs, wants and interests and helps you to discover what you need to be happy and successful at reaching your goals. I continually felt supported and never judged.

“I am glad that I made the investment to take my life back.”

First off, I am glad that I made the investment to take my life back. Before starting the holistic wellness coaching program, I felt as if I was just surviving day by day rather than LIVING each day to the fullest. I could not continue putting everyone else’s needs before mine or pour from an empty cup. I have learned to work towards attaining my goals in small portions, which has transformed my lifestyle, energy levels, and mindset. Change can be a scary feeling. It was with Liv’s support and guidance that allowed me to dive deep into the root causes of the fears that were creating barriers and holding me back. Although the program has ended, Liv has instilled the necessary steps to continue my wellness journey. To actually see progress physically and mentally, has been the most exhilarating feeling. There is no greater feeling than the sense of fullness, presence, and just being alive! This entire experience has been extremely impactful and meaningful to also my family, friends, and all that I have encountered. Thank you again for giving me a reason to live again.
