After a breast cancer diagnosis and life-threatening reaction to surgery in 2014, I learned how impactful environmental factors are to one’s health. Even though I had always been mindful of taking care of myself through diet and exercise, I had no idea of the impact of environmental toxins. This experience was a turning point in my life and set me on a journey to find the balance I needed to continue to live my life, but in a healthier way.
I understand how challenging it is to understand and navigate the landscape of safer products and lifestyle choices including food, products for skin and personal care use, household and more. I also have learned the importance of limiting stress by having a healthy balance of family, career and lifestyle.
As an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, I create a supportive environment that enables clients to articulate and achieve their goals. Throughout my education, I have been exposed to the most cutting-edge dietary theories and studied highly effective coaching techniques to help clients find the right lifestyle balance that works best for them.
Most approaches to healthy eating dwell on calories, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Instead of creating lists of restrictions and good and bad foods, I coach my clients to explore basic improvements and implement gradual changes during our work together. As these pieces accumulate, my clients find these changes collectively creating a much larger impact than they originally anticipated. Together, we work on what they want to improve within the circumstances of their unique situation to create a personalized template to achieve their goals.
