Testimonials
"The women of Real Change Consultants are dedicated to finding wellness solutions that work in our employees' real lives. All year they've been consistently fun, intelligent, and reliable. They make every effort to present solid, expert advice on a broad variety of topics in a format that works for our staff - no more one-way lectures, guilt-trips or vague, trendy information about healthy lifestyle changes! The Real Change Consultants have transformed our corporate culture with practical strategies to improve fitness, nutrition, and emotional health. Investing in this team of professionals for a year at a time has made planning simplified and has helped our employees better sustain their changes. The return on investment is a staff that is happier, healthier, and more energetic. We are looking forward to more of their refreshing ideas in the future. What a fantastic resource!"

"Andrea, your high energy keynote session delivered at our conference was right on target! Your positive contagious energy and humor generated optimism with our group. We were hoping to receive ideas on how to feel more focused, energetic, and healthier at work and in our personal lives. You provided this and more! Your stories and practical tips not only captivated the attention of our group, but inspired us to take charge of our health. We learned that eating well doesn't have to be difficult, and that small changes can really make a difference in how we feel at work every day. Your fresh approach to healthy eating and philosophy that all foods can fit really allowed you to connect with the audience. We look forward to having you speak to our group again. Thanks!"

"I experienced Michelle speaking at a Canadian Conference. She is 'my kind of speaker'. I loved her energy, well researched material and most of all, her humour. Michelle knows how to read a crowd and get everyone going so they leave inspired and energized. I have already recommended her to some of my clients and contacts".

"I first hired Michelle to present at the Ultimate Pajama Party in Jasper in April of 2003 and she was a hit! She is now a regular part of my presenting team and is one of our most popular presenters. I can wholeheartedly say that based on our evaluations, Michelle is always a huge hit and I intend to continue to use her in the future at our many locations. She joined us in Bermuda October 2006!"

"Andrea's approach to healthy eating not only inspires, but leaves a lasting impression of hope and confidence for success. She has worked with our staff over the last few years in providing us with sessions focused on simple nutrition tips for better energy, health, and weight management. She is an expert in her field and truly knows how to challenge each person to do just a little bit better.

"Andrea Holwegner brings huge value and return on investment as an inspiring leader in the nutrition field. She is an upbeat speaker, with credible, practical ideas to share. We have continued to bring her back again and again to speak to our employees. Her message is starting to stick! Our employees are starting to "walk the talk" and as a result of eating better, are returning to work feeling healthier and more energized. We look forward to continue help from Andrea as our company grows and work demands increase. I would highly recommend Andrea to any organization that is looking for ways to help their employees improve energy, increase productivity, and reduce sick time. Thanks to Andrea we have been inspired to feel better each day for work and play. We will be seeing her again soon!"

"Excellent presentation! What a refreshing change to have a speaker inspire rather than "lecture" about nutrition. Your captivating stories, tips, and overall approach to healthy eating uplifts and puts people at ease. It was great to hear we don't need to strive to be perfect eaters, and that small changes really can make a difference in how we feel and in our health. Thanks to Andrea we have solutions to our every day nutrition challenges that can actual work in real life!"
