"My health journey began in my 20's. I'd always been interested in the newest workout studio and loved to dive headfirst into an interesting recipe. However, I never really understood the importance of health and taking care of myself until after becoming a mother. Post-pregnancy, I found myself struggling, as many women do. Struggling with anxiety, extremely low energy levels, my body image, and mental clarity. The lack of sleep, inconsistent schedule, and poor eating habits were running me into the ground. Though, I partly thought if I didn't feel this way I wasn't "momming" hard enough. That all changed when I sought the help of a local nutrition coach. I soon discovered that when I focused on nourishing myself by eating real, whole foods, my energy levels, mental clarity, and overall health responded remarkably. I also began to see additional positive changes once I began incorporating a variety of other holistic health practices. My health struggles and the help I received turned into a passion for helping other women. The experiences drove me to formalize my education by completing my nutrition coaching certification through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. During my certification process, I learned innovative coaching methods, practical lifestyle management techniques, and over 100 dietary theories and eating principles from some of the world's top health and wellness experts. I know it can be hard to prioritize yourself while ensuring everyone else's needs are being met. It is my philosophy that you cannot pour from an empty cup. I take a whole foods and overall holistic approach to well-being that helps my clients lead their lives from a place of abundance. I truly believe that healthy eating can be fun, easy, and delicious. Together, we can work to create a personalized plan to help you optimize your health, lose weight, and restore energy levels through developing habits and practices that will support you for a lifetime."
