Welcome to Becoming! 

​I'm Denee Dole, and I'm glad you're here. 

 

Like you, I have an unique story to tell, with many beginnings and endings in life. I've failed, succeeded and I've struggled. Some days I feel like a fish out of water trying to breathe. I have moments of overwhelm and not knowing what to do, and that can feel lonely. 

​

So, I do this to help other people not feel so lonely in the pursuit of wellness or change. To be able to talk it out with someone.

So may times I've wished I had someone to process things with. Now I've become that person.  I want you to feel good about your life, about yourself. I want to give you back your confidence, so you can go and conquer the world, or at least your Starbucks habit. 

​

How did I get into Pilates? I birthed twins, well, C-sectioned those two girls. I took classes to get back in shape, and was hooked. Twenty-so years later, I still love to teach and practice Pilates. It's a non-negotiable in my life. Pilates marries health coaching well, as the mind/body connection are not separate. ​​​

​

In 2023, feeling a tug...I became a student again after 29 years. Do that math! I completed my coaching program, and then sat for the rigorous National Board for Health & Wellness coaching exam. Doing that convinced me that starting something new is completely possible, even if you're not a shiny new human, but have some wear and tear. It just takes a little more...grit. ​

 

 I used to say my goal in life was to have balance. I thought that meant nothing would ever be out of whack, that I'd live in some perfectly curated life...all the time. Now I realize it's not about perfection, but resiliency and transformation into a life and body I feel good about. That's why I became a health & wellness coach, so I could figure out what happens between a thought and an outcome. 

 

I've been told my approach is warm, practical and grounded...that I'm very patient. I see the possible in people, but I accept you where you are. I believe change needs to make sense in the big picture of your life, and it starts with one small thought that leads to one small action, over and over again...until you don't have to think about it. 

​

Why me? Because I'll be in your corner. 

 

 

Still Becoming,

Denee   ​​​​
