Her Story

About Erika

I am the founder and CEO of Elevate Wellness Coaching where I serve as the lead coach providing one-on-one online coaching to clients worldwide. My work focuses on mindset, nutrition education, and creating customized programs to help women transform their wellness from the inside out. I draw from my experience as a former NPC bikini competitor and my early start in the fitness industry in Central America running a fitness and modeling center, hosting fitness TV and radio shows, and leading workshops. Everything I do emphasizes that transformation starts with the mind and building a positive, sustainable lifestyle rather than viewing food as punishment.

Her Interview

Ten minutes with Erika

01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?

Believe in what you're doing so you can transmit positive energy to clients. Be patient because everyone has different drives and ways of thinking. Help clients understand the why behind their actions and ask the correct questions.

02What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?

The main challenge is helping people change long-standing unhealthy habits like eating or behavior patterns, which takes time (14-30 days or longer) and requires readiness for change.
