How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
Finding the right foods that help to improve energy, stamina, digestive health and more is, of course, incredibly important as food is information to the body. When food is received by the stomach, it sends information to the brain, and then a whole cascade of hormonal and neurological signals are sent throughout the whole body. So if you give your body the right information through healthy food, your body will produce a solid foundation for health and well-being which will, in turn, help to reduce risk for disease and keep you feeling well.
What do you love most about your job?
While I love almost everything about it from the stuff behind the scenes like keeping up with ongoing nutrition research and developing culinary and lifestyle strategies that make pursuing health easier, I absolutely love it when someone is so excited about the fact that they are feeling better and losing weight (if weight loss is a goal). Having said that, I also love getting to know someone, being able to create programs for them, and exploring with them the journey that is entered when discovering and implementing the plans and strategies for living life with health and vigor. I am passionate about helping people to improve their health. It's just so rewarding to see someone's life improve.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I had my own health journey when I was diagnosed many years ago with chronic fatigue syndrome and lyme disease. I discovered that nutrition was key to my own health success. As a result, I went back to school, became board-certified, started talking to people who needed help, and then started my own business. That's why it's so rewarding when I experience with a client their health success -- I know how much wanting to be healthy means! I also understand the many ups and downs of weight loss as I've struggled with that issue, as well. I understand that weight loss is a complex issue, and is ultimately about being committed to healthy living. I know the many obstacles, and I know they can be overcome. In starting my own business, I want to help other people discover this, as well. It's very rewarding.
Why should our clients choose you?
