Coach of the Month
Andrea Jackson
Wife | Former Preschool Owner | Fast to Faith Coach
“It’s no longer just about releasing weight… It’s about understanding what God wants for our bodies.”Here’s how it happened.
Her Story: When the Old Rules Stopped Working
Andrea has always had a passion for nutrition and fitness. She even owned a nutrition-focused preschool for many years.
But as she got older, her body’s needs changed.
Like so many women, she had been following the cultural norms - fast-paced living and the “eat less, exercise more” approach to staying lean. And it led her straight into hormonal pitfalls.
It wasn’t until she met Dr. Tabatha that she learned a woman’s body needs a different approach in midlife.
She wanted to help other women avoid the same pitfalls she had experienced.
Finding True Nourishment
Andrea had worked with Dr. Tabatha’s team before Fast to Faith was even created.
So when the program was first released, she knew she needed to be part of it.
Real health starts with God at the center.
“Learning to slow down and listen to what God is saying to you each day makes the journey more rewarding.”Andrea Jackson
As If It Was Made for Her
Andrea knew God had placed a calling on her life. She just didn’t know which direction He wanted her to go.
For months, she searched for a health coaching certification. But nothing aligned with her beliefs.
Then Dr. Tabatha announced the Coaching Academy.
What makes it different for Andrea is the faith piece. She opens each coaching session in prayer, helping women with their health journey and their spiritual journey.
From Passion to Purpose
For years, people around Andrea came to her for nutrition advice. But she never felt truly qualified to teach others.
She has grown closer to God and is learning to rely on Him daily.
She no longer feels the need to know everything. Each client has different needs, and Andrea truly believes God has hand-picked the women He wants her to serve.
She has learned to surrender it all to Him and trust His plans.
The Most Rewarding Part
For Andrea, it’s helping women find freedom from the “food noise.”
Reminding them it’s not all or nothing.
Watching them give themselves some grace.
Helping them see that healing takes time.
Thinking About Becoming a Coach?
Andrea’s advice:
If God has put it on your heart to help other women in their health journey, the Coaching Academy will teach you about nutrition, hormones and mindset - and how to run a Christ-centered business.
Andrea’s Message to the Woman Who’s Ready for More
Fast to Faith is life changing.
When you understand what God wants for your body and trust that you can get through anything with Him by your side, a peace comes with it. And that peace will lead you toward everything else.
Then there’s the sisterhood.
You were not created to do this on your own.
Get to Know Andrea
Her Morning Rhythm
Outside at sunrise, bare feet on the ground, focusing on what she’s grateful for. Then coffee with her husband while they read the Bible and pray together. She finishes with movement - running, lifting weights, yoga or a walk in the morning sun.
Her Anchor Scripture
Jeremiah 29:11
A reminder that she doesn’t need to have it all figured out. God has a plan for her future.
Something You Might Not Know
Andrea was a 4-H clogger in elementary school and got to dance at Disneyland around the age of 10.
Her Biblical Coffee Date
Andrea would choose Mary. She is in awe of Mary’s faith, and honestly admits she would have been too afraid of how the world would view her instead of fully trusting the Lord and His plans.
