As a 50 year plus menopausal woman, keeping a handle on my wellness has been a struggle. Earlier this year my liver specialist asked me to lose 4 kg and a week later I started the Thrive 6 week Shred program with Louise. During the program I not only managed to lose 5 kgs plus several cm around my waist, but also learned to love exercise. The program was manageable, with achievable goals and ultimately an opportunity to find a sustainable option for weight management and fitness. I cannot recommend this program enough and feel empowered to continue improving my wellness!

This is not just a weight loss journey, but an education and lifestyle change! Louise does a great job giving challenges weekly in a fun way. I slowly changed habits and behaviours while being educated on the reasons why. I lost 7kg in 5 weeks doing this program in a healthy and fun way. I would highly recommend this program and Louise's wisdom with regards to portions and nutrition makes it easy to do without starving yourself.

I warned Louise that I am stubborn, very slow to
change, and wildly averse to changes in behaviour that would generate friction in my
day-to-day life. Despite this, Louise took me on and has since helped me more than I
thought someone could and helped me achieve more than I thought possible of
myself.
She must have put in an inordinate amount of effort into designing steps and actions
that made it incredibly easy for me to follow. Her initial meals plans were both highly
impactful and almost trivially easy to migrate towards. She managed to gamify
actions during the period that pushed me to follow through with things that I was
either resisting or avoiding, particularly in the realms of exercise and movement. The
changes that she has introduced over time have been subtle and precisely chosen
but have remained no less impactful week after week.
Louise crafted a bespoke and uniquely effective plan of action and stepped me
through it with such aplomb that I’m almost not sure how I got to where I am. I can
highly and wholeheartedly recommend and endorse Louise as a coach.

Louise Ferreira came into our lives like a breath of fresh air when she was so desperately needed. She ticked all the boxes. We cannot praise her highly enough for her integrity, punctuality, consistency, and great knowledge as a personal coach.
My husband has had many medical issues, and while he expected to meet a dietitian who would just hand him a slip of paper with a diet sheet and say, "Goodbye, call me next week," that’s not Louise.
Louise sensed and found out what my husband lacked, which was exercise. Before tackling any dietary restrictions, she tackled the exercise. I climbed on the bandwagon and have also benefited from her vast knowledge. Louise is a very unique person. As I said, she ticks all the boxes. But beyond that, she’s kind, caring, and concerned. I cannot praise her highly enough. Out of ten stars, she gets eleven stars from us.
