Hello and Welcome—I'm Gisèle
As a Certified Fibromyalgia Coach® with a nursing and psychology background, guiding people like YOU living with fibromyalgia through their recovery journey has become my life's passion. It's wonderful to have you here!
I Understand What You're Going Through—You're Not Alone in This
Living with fibromyalgia means facing physical and emotional hurdles that others often don't understand. The widespread pain, crushing fatigue, brain fog, and unpredictability
can feel isolating and overwhelming. You've found a safe haven here.
After 30+ years of living with Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, Multiple Chemical & Environmental Sensitivity (MCS/ES), and autoimmune illnesses, the experience of feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and desperately searching for relief is deeply familiar. Like many of you, there were countless specialist visits and numerous treatments tried, often with minimal results or even worsening symptoms.
From Crisis to Breakthrough
In 2014, a crisis point arrived—failed treatments, and a body that had finally reached its limit, lead to disability. Even with a neurology nursing background, conventional medicine couldn't provide the answers needed for chronic pain and fatigue that defied diagnosis. For decades, sheer determination kept me going. albeit never easily. But eventually, the body said "enough."
That's when everything changed.
Refusing to accept this fate sparked a transformative journey—one that revealed what truly works. A decade of dedicated exploration provided invaluable insights that traditional medical training alone never could.
Living Proof That Transformation Is Possible
Today, life looks completely different. Pain-free, symptom-free living is the new normal. Time with my husband Scott, family, and friends brings joy again instead of anxiety about whether symptoms will interfere.
If a symptom does appear (usually after overdoing it), the why is clear and the solution is quick—keeping it mild and short-lived. While there may not be a cure yet, vibrancy and vitality have returned, and I finally feel like myself again.
More importantly: dozens of women and men have experienced similar transformations through personalized 1:1 and group coaching that address their unique circumstances. Each person's fibro body is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. That's why this approach is personalized, evidence-informed, and focused on what your body needs—not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Ready to Start Your Journey? You don't have to figure this out alone. Let's explore whether working together is the right fit.
