Rachel Wilkerson
I've always wanted to get that message to as many people as I can. Thank goodness Al Gore invented the Internet; it's the perfect platform for me!

For a while, I was perfectly happy sending my message to a mass audience through writing, blogging, and public speaking. But it became apparent to me that a lot of people wanted to talk with me one-on-one, to figure out how that message relates exactly to them. And I wanted to be able to offer that! So I formed Rachel Wilkerson Coaching as a way for me to personalize the message for you as an individual.

I love life and I love learning “lessons” — those moments when a light bulb goes off and suddenly everything makes sense. It might be a new way to motivate myself to work out or it might be a new gadget I can’t live without. I figure that if those lessons help me, they could help other people too. I like being the girl people can trust to give them a straight, no-BS answer. Yes, you should buy a Magic Bullet. No, you should not gobble diet pills in an effort to get a boyfriend. Stuff like that. Those lessons are what I love sharing and that I share on my blog.

You’ll see that I just can’t help myself from being ridiculous. But I just can’t help myself – I love helping other people too.


I'll help you make the changes you want to make so you no longer feel like you're settling. After all, I’ve never had a problem challenging the status quo in the spirit of improvement.

  • I brought that spirit to the Michigan State University School of Journalism when I started the online newspaper SpartanEdge.com.
  • I stayed true to myself with "The Spartanette," the too-racy-for-the-school-newspaper blog I wrote for three years.
  • My innovation flourished in the MSU Greek community as I upgraded classic Greek events as VP of Membership for Sigma Kappa Sorority and as a Greek Week Director.
  • I continued to stay ahead of the curve at ELLE Magazine, staying even cool while solving major world crises, such as scouring the world to get the perfect pair of stilettos for a photo shoot (much harder than it sounds).
  • I shook up the squeaky-clean healthy-living blogosphere with my tequila-meets-treadmill blog Shedding It & Getting It.
  • I founded the bloggers' blog Hollaback Health in an effort to get more bloggers to find their own unique voices and stop following the crowd. 
I would absolutely love to put these experiences to work for you!
