I help women in midlife level up energy, strength and confidence

You’ve tried the diets, the workouts, and the quick fixes—and they don’t work like they used to.

Your midlife body is changing, energy feels harder to come by, sleep is hit-or-miss, and the scale seems to creep up despite your best efforts.

You’re tired of confusing advice, constant food and weight chatter, and feeling guilty for taking time for your own health.

You want to feel strong, capable, and confident again—whether that’s out on the trail, living life fully, or challenging yourself in the gym.

If you’re ready for a sustainable, whole-person approach that supports your body and the life you want to live, welcome to Upward Motion.

Because we've got a whole lotta livin' to do...

 

I help women create a healthy, energized life that lasts. No quick fixes—just sustainable habits that support energy, strength, and confidence in life’s second half. Because we’ve got a whole lotta livin’ to do.

True health is about more than food and workouts. It’s your mindset, your stress, and how you live each day. When we connect your “why” to the “how,” real change happens.

If you’re in a season of transition, I help you move forward—stronger than before. The power is already within you.

Here's how we'll work together...

Client Testimonials

Monica Retired American Embassy Consul, Arizona

As someone who has lived abroad for several years, my lifestyle was anything but typical… most of all, I wanted to get healthy – physically, emotionally, and spiritually. With Juile’s help, I’ve kicked the meds and instead, use tools she’s given me to handle difficult times. Asking Julie to be my Health Coach was a decision that will benefit me for the rest of my life.

Pam Full-Time Women’s Ministry Leader, Idaho

At 65, I turned to Julie for accountability, strength training, and help slowing weight gain. Her practical, doable approach helped me build strength, address early osteoporosis, and see real progress. Julie focuses on long-term vitality—not quick fixes—and I gained habits that are helping me grow stronger, lose inches, and enjoy life.

Kari Part-Time Business Manager and Elderly Parent Caregiver, Oregon

Julie listens to my current reality (in body and spirit) and then guides me forward with tips/reminders/inspiration. She’s done the necessary research for my physical needs and adds the bonus of tailoring a little extra for my soul. I’ll be 60 this year and believe that working with Julie is the best “quality-of-life assurance plan” I could have invested in.

Traci Real Estate Professional, Alaska

Julie's health coaching was a serendipitous delight! I knew I would learn valuable information that would help me improve my health, but I didn't expect all the other wonderful benefits. I received knowledge, support, and challenges that could be incorporated into my daily life. Her program was beautifully organized and has helped me to turn the corner on improving my health and having energy FOR LIFE! Thanks Julie!
