Cheryl Gottesman
As a Christian health coach, I believe in remaining teachable, coachable, and grounded in God’s strength—not my own willpower. I can’t guide others where I’m unwilling to go myself. In 2023, I was at my heaviest—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I made a quiet decision to recommit to caring for the body God entrusted to me through daily movement, nourishing food, and time in His Word. I lost 25 pounds and regained energy and clarity. In 2024, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy. By God’s grace, I am now cancer-free. While I’ve since gained weight and lost strength & endurance, I continue making small, intentional choices to care for my body—slowly, faithfully, and always with grace.
