FAQ

• When does Zero To Thrive begin?

  There are only 3 intakes per year and they usually sell out fast! The next intake will be in July 2022, so stay tuned for more details!

• How long is Zero To Thrive?

  It is split into 4-steps. Each step of the program is 4 weeks, so the entire program will be 16 weeks (or 4 months) altogether.

• Can I buy each Step separately?

  No, in my experience of previously running Zero To Thrive separately, the best results were always with those who completed all components. So we’ve made the decision to only run Zero To Thrive as a 4 month, 4 Step, all inclusive program.

• How is Zero To Thrive run?

  It is delivered with a mix of virtual live calls via Zoom, videos and PDFs delivered to your inbox weekly to download and the community of participants checking in via the private program Facebook group.

• How long will I have access to Zero To Thrive?

  For the duration of the 4 months, you can access the Facebook group and the links to all the workout calendar playlists. After the 4-months are over, there will be a 2 week transition before the group and playlist links will be removed. All of the pre-recorded content such as Gina’s masterclasses, ebooks, workbooks & recorded playback of the Live Q & A sessions can be downloaded and kept forever!

• Can I do this anywhere in the world?

  Zero To Thrive is completely delivered virtually. All you need is an internet connection, so that you can participate from anywhere in the world.The live Q & A calls are scheduled at different times to accommodate different time zones, and the recordings are posted afterwards. All other material is delivered straight to your inbox.

• How are the weekly live Q & A sessions with Gina run?

  Every week you will be invited to attend a live, one hour call held over Zoom. You can join via your phone, tablet or computer.

• Will everyone see me on the call?

  Only if you choose to turn your camera video ON in your settings. Otherwise the attendees only see Gina.

• What if I miss the live Q & A?

  The live coaching calls are scheduled at two different times to accommodate different time zones, and you will be sent the replay of each call which you can watch at your convenience.

• Do you offer a payment plan?

  Yes, there is an option to pay in 4 monthly installments of $114.99 or pay upfront and the program cost is only $396 (equal to $99 per month). I also offer scholarship spots for those experiencing financial hardship every intake at zero cost, so look out for when applications open for this.

• Do you offer refunds?

  Yes, within the first 30 days of the program you can receive a refund if you provide proof that you have completed all of the assigned work in the program.

• What currency is the price listed in?

  U.S. dollars

• Can I participate in Zero To Thrive if I don't have Facebook?

  Yes! All of the program resources can be sent directly to your email address without the need for Facebook.

  However, Facebook is primarily used as the accountability tool to communicate with you each day. This is where you will get the support and encouragement from others in the program and where most of the check-ins are held.

  Another option some previous participants have done is to create a temporary Facebook profile for the duration of the 4-months, then delete once over.

• Will I need equipment?

  You will need some basic workout & kitchen equipment such as light dumbbells, kitchen scales, measuring cups/spoons and for Step 4 of the program, Meal Prep Makeover, you may benefit from a set of food storage containers.

  For the technical side of things you will need an internet connection, email address, access to Facebook (as discussed above) and a calorie/macro tracking app.

  I prefer MyFitnessPal, to help track your intake which is a free download, but you can use any free app you like and any device to track your steps (most smartphones have the capability to track your steps via the Health app).

• Is there a meal plan included?

  I don’t believe in strict meal plans. In Zero To Thrive I’ll teach you how to make healthy food choices in real life, so you are empowered with knowledge without the need to depend on a meal plan! However, in the final step 4 Meal Prep Makeover you’ll be provided with healthy recipes every week for inspiration to put the concepts into practice.

• I have dietary requirements, does this matter?

  We have included recipes that cater for different dietary needs such as vegetarian, vegan, dairy and nut free. However, since there is no meal plan you are free to choose foods that suit you and your needs and always have the option to swap ingredients where needed.

• Can I do Zero To Thrive if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

  Your body has different physical and nutritional needs at this time in your life. In general, weight loss should not be your goal or concern during this phase.

  But sometimes it’s also hard to eat well and exercise in the perinatal period, so there are significant elements in this program that would really benefit you. Pregnancy can be a really mentally challenging time, so the support you’ll get will help you get through!

  But as always, please discuss everything with your doctor/physician during this important time.

• I have a medical condition / I'm injured. Can I still join Zero To Thrive?

  Before commencing any new fitness, health or nutrition program, please consult with your doctor to discuss your individual needs.

  While I am here to provide general advice, you should seek professional help where individual assistance is needed.
