What Our Clients Say

My personal experience working with Steve has ultimately changed my life. In the past, I have worked with a previous coach, but it doesn’t compare to what Steve brings to the table. He helps you adjust your mindset and then take action on how to achieve your goals in a way that is sustainable and life-giving. 

I have been extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Steve for over 15 years on my health, wellness, and fitness journey. Steve’s level of knowledge with respect to the psychology and physiology of healthy living is unparalleled. He goes above and beyond to explain the how and why of everything he is doing so that his clients fully commit to his program. He is a holistic coach who focuses on functional exercises to enhance and simulate real-life movement. For Steve, every movement has a purpose. In addition to his expertise in fitness, he was instrumental in providing knowledge about injury prevention and recovery through movement, state of mind, food, and/or supplementation. Steve is constantly continuing his education to ensure that he provides the most up-to-date and accurate information to his clients. He has been ahead of his time in explaining the gut-brain connection and how it impacts daily living. There have been countless connections that Steve has made regarding my health and wellness prior to mainstream understanding. He completely comprehends the importance of a healthy psyche to live your best life, and this is what sets him apart from all others in the industry. He focuses on the foundation and builds a better you from the ground up.

I am a 59-year-old male who was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at the very young age of 37. Needless to say, my family doctor offered little to no help regarding nutrition as a way to manage my newly diagnosed disease. I was sent to an education course with a registered nurse who just provided Canada’s Food Guide as a nutritional guideline. This did not help me, and I gained more weight while struggling to get my blood glucose levels under control. I was introduced to Steven Desantis by a friend of mine, and I can honestly say the education he provided went beyond my comprehension of what diabetes really is. Not only did he take the nutritional information beyond anything the doctors and nurses had given me, but he also taught me deep-down secrets on how diabetes is actually recognized, having nothing to do with food. As a result, I have lost a considerable amount of weight, lowered my A1C to a respectable level, and reduced my LDL cholesterol to normal levels through Steven’s life coaching and fitness support. His level of coaching support is incredible, as he coached me through many obstacles when we first got together. I was experiencing feelings of despair at the things I would have to change in my life, but he assured me that I would get through this life change with his help. I have to say, if I had never met Steven, I don’t think I would be in control of my overall health as well as I am now. 

Thank you, Steven, for helping me to make a change.

Working with Steve has profoundly reshaped my understanding of the mind-body connection and how our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs influence our eating habits. As a young woman, trying to navigate the changes my body is going through, as well as my relationship with food, is incredibly difficult. Through our one-on-one coaching sessions, Steve encourages me to go within and carefully listen to the internal messages and eat in a way that nourishes and supports my well-being rather than just
focusing on calorie counting or weight loss, which really offers me no support or growth. Whenever I’m craving something—is it food, love, attention?—I always hear his voice in the back of
my mind calming me, and I know that I will make the appropriate decision based on how I am feeling in that moment. This shift in perspective has been incredibly freeing. I am now focused on becoming more confident as a woman comfortable in her body rather than using weight loss diets, which have failed me miserably. My favorite part of speaking with Steve is how I can truly be myself. No thought is too far out there for his ears. He is patient, listens, and guides me to look inward for the answers. He reminds me of the complexity that comes with being a woman, but also how truly beautiful it really is. Steve has been an incredible resource on my journey, and I truly do not know where I would be without him.

I cannot recommend Steve Desantis highly enough. His knowledge in all areas—food, body, health, well-being, and fitness—is truly exceptional. Steve has an incredible gift and understanding of how to help clients create sustainable, long-lasting changes that I have never received through others. What sets him apart is his personal experience; he’s been through his own trials and has come out stronger, making him not only more knowledgeable but also deeply empathetic and caring. Steve genuinely cares about my progress and well-being because he cares about me! His loyalty and commitment to helping me achieve my goals have been unwavering, and I always feel supported both emotionally and mentally. He has catapulted my health in ways I never thought I could achieve. I’m grateful to have such a dedicated and loyal individual who shines his wisdom upon the world.

Julia Viele

Client

Working with Steven has been an eye-opening, jaw-dropping experience. We are all conscious to some degree of how to live life and eat, but Steve took it to another dimension. I had no idea my thoughts were affecting my relationship with food and how powerful food was in affecting my health and well-being—specifically, my diagnosis with lupus. Not only did Steven help me with the appropriate diet based on my genetically inherited metabolic profile, but he showed me how profoundly the psyche of the eater is involved when it comes to my relationship with food and body and living with lupus.
