Now don’t just take my word for it. Check out what our clients have to say:
Cindy Roy
"As a former competitor, my biggest struggle was with food—I was trapped in a cycle of extreme dieting followed by uncontrollable binging. My life has done a complete 180 since joining this program. I've distanced myself from negative influences, prioritized my own needs, and developed a healthy relationship with food. I no longer label food as good or bad, and my self-confidence has soared. Surrounded by supportive, motivating people, I've lost over 30 lbs and gained a sense of self-assurance I never had before. These transformations are all thanks to you and the incredible coaching team."
Jessica Best
"Before The Powerhouse Academy, I struggled with direction and felt unsupported. Other programs were one-size-fits-all, but here, my needs were truly heard, and I received a customized plan. I had difficulty with weight loss and muscle gain, and past advice to 'eat less and exercise more' wasn’t sustainable. Now, I'm consistently losing weight and feeling more confident and happy. My family even notices the happiness in my voice. The community is incredible—I feel supported in every aspect of life, not just fitness. Whether it’s work, family, or personal challenges, this global community is always there for advice and support."
Julie Roy
"When I found Powerhouse Academy, I was struggling with multiple aspects of my life. After breaking a hip, tearing my rotator cuff, and being diagnosed with three genetic autoimmune disorders, I lost self-esteem and confidence. My body couldn’t do what it used to, and fatigue consumed me. The loss of my mom to cancer only deepened my pain. But then I discovered Nathalia on Instagram—her honesty and straightforwardness drew me in. Just one month into Powerhouse Academy, I’ve surpassed my goal weight and am rediscovering myself. With Nathalia and her amazing team, I know my goals are within reach."
Pam Mckelroy
"At 297 lbs, my life was spiraling out of control. Depression and constant physical pain made me stop living. My feet were so inflamed I could only wear backless shoes. But with this program, I've lost 147 lbs, gone from size 22 to 6, and my labs are now normal. The inflammation is gone, and at 57, I'm completing half marathons, triathlon sprints, and biking over 21 miles. Despite being in post-menopause, I'm in the best shape of my adult life. This program and these coaches truly saved my life, and my journey has only just begun."
Kenya
"I’ve always been a gym rat and committed to a healthy lifestyle, but after moving to the U.S. 10 years ago, I struggled with weight fluctuations, going from 115 to 165 pounds. My all-or-nothing mindset made me miserable and nearly led to depression. Since joining The Powerhouse Academy, I’ve learned the importance of balance and improved my relationship with food. I’m discovering strategies that will allow you to not only achieve my goals, but maintain them. Now I understand that lasting change requires a shift in mindset. The 'easy fix' doesn’t work—you have to change your mind to change your life."

I remember after becoming Miss Olympia in 2012, I had my first child.
Life was completely different.
The juggling between growing my company, being married to Roger and raising children was extremely challenging.
Miss Olmypia. Me. The fittest girl on the planet.
Was struggling to create that sexy shaped body again.
I began to try to apply everything that used to work back in my former Miss Olympia days yet NOTHING was working.
I was frustrated. I hated how I looked in a mirror…but I didn’t quit.
And after tons of trial and error, I was able to recreate myself once again. Not only do I have a thriving business that requires a lot of time and energy from me. Not only do I have an amazing husband and children.
I’ve been able to create a sexy powerhouse body WITHOUT the crazy dieting I was doing back in my Miss Olympia days.
Fast forward, not only have I done it for myself, my Simply Lean System has been able to help thousands of busy high caliber women create their dream sexy body.

How is this program different from all the other programs I have already tried?
I completely understand your frustration—I've been there myself. For a long time, I hesitated to become a coach because my own experiences with coaching were disappointing. That’s why I created the Powerhouse Academy with a different approach. Our program is designed to be the pioneer in helping women sculpt elite bodies and minds by working with true experts in their fields, not a “jack of all trades.” We have an in-house counselor and Registered Dietitian, and we tailor every aspect of your program to you.
