Your health is more
than the food you eat...
I’m Amanda, mama, certified Nutrition Therapy Practitioner, avid reader of labels, and passionate advocate for women’s health. I’m glad you’re here.
Hi!
Let me tell you a story...
I used to be a junkie. A fast-food junkie. A sugar junkie. A carb-loading junkie. I rarely ate a home-cooked meal.
Once I hit my mid-20s, it all caught up with me. So I decided to get “healthy.”
I started with meal-replacement shakes and bars, then “healthy” frozen meals. I counted every calorie I ate and every calorie burned during marathon workout sessions.
It would work for a while, but I couldn’t sustain it. I was starving! Then I found running. Surely this would work! I could eat what I wanted and just run it off, right?!
Wrong. Miles upon miles and I still got the same results. I still felt terrible. I still struggled with weight, stomach issues, inflammation, and a mile-long list of other symptoms.
“What is going on?!” I’d think. “Aren’t I doing everything right?”
Enter my 30s and a whisper of another way…a way that was so different than everything I thought I knew about being healthy.
AND IT WORKED.
As I was learning how the food I put in my body affected EVERYTHING about my life, at times I found myself resistant. Defiant.
healing is a process.
I found I had food sensitivities that would require me to give up certain foods and change is HARD. But it worked! And although I started with food, I found that true health was more than just food.
Honestly, it changed my life. I quit dieting, gained control of my sugar habit, lost weight effortlessly AND I felt like a million bucks!
And suddenly it was all I wanted to talk about. And read about. And listen to podcasts about.
So I decided to quit my corporate job and go back to school to become a Nutrition Therapy Practitioner. Because there was no way I could keep my newfound knowledge to myself!
I wanted to help other women, like you, feel like a million bucks.
Why Nutrition Therapy?
Nutrition Therapy is essentially holistic nutrition. Like holistic medicine, holistic nutrition is a form of healing that takes into account the whole person—mind, body, spirit—and that person’s environment.
We don’t eat in a vacuum. We eat what our parents ate, or what our partner eats, or what our culture tells us to eat. We eat when we’re sad and when we’re happy. We have to eat to live, but many people don’t know what they should be eating to be healthy. And there’s no one-size-fits-all approach because everyone is unique.
But you can’t begin to address your health goals, from weight loss to improving symptoms of medical conditions, until you understand what factors influence them.
Hormones, emotions, stress, relationships, environmental toxins, sleep, movement and so, so much more play into your health.
I can help you address all of these.
With satisfied (healthy!) clients of all ages, from all walks of life, all over the United States, with many different health concerns, I can confidently say that I can help you, too.
