Hello, I’m Gita Afsharian, a Certified Behavioral Coach with a Master of Science degree in Engineering Management from the University of Southern California (USC).
My professional journey has given me a unique perspective on personal growth, resilience, and behavior change. I began my career as a Traffic Engineer, where I spent seven years managing complex projects, solving problems, and making data-driven decisions.
After becoming a mother, I made the intentional decision to pursue a career that allowed me to be more present for my family while continuing to make a meaningful impact in people’s lives. For the past 12 years, I have worked as a substitute teacher with the Capistrano Unified School District, supporting students from kindergarten through high school. I have had the privilege of working with students from diverse backgrounds, including those with behavioral challenges and students in special education programs. These experiences strengthened my patience, empathy, communication skills, and ability to connect with individuals who have unique needs.
Alongside my work in education, I have more than 10 years of experience in personal and group fitness training, providing online fitness coaching and practical nutrition guidance. As a Certified Behavioral Coach, I combine behavior change strategies, accountability, movement, and healthy lifestyle habits to help clients build lasting, sustainable results.
I believe that lasting transformation doesn’t come from perfection—it comes from consistent, intentional choices. My goal is to empower every client with the tools, confidence, and support they need to create a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling life.
