Find Food Freedom Through God's Grace
Body positivity…it’s a phrase I never knew existed until recently. Up until my involvement with the world of health and wellness, I always thought that your body and positivity were like two ships passing in the night where never the twain shall meet. As women, isn’t it our job…our duty to hate our bodies? Are […]
I knew that genetics played a vital role in health but never realized just how much until I started really honing in on my own health history. A health history is one of the major tools I use in my coaching practice and something I offer for free to give. It is a series of […]
Ever have those days where you eat like total crap and swear the next day you will be better and then the next day arrives and you eat like crap again? This pattern can sometimes go on for weeks, even months! It just feels like no matter what you do, you can’t seem to get […]
Getting in that daily dose of veggies can be super tough. Just having enough interesting vegetable recipes is a high hurdle for most of us busy gals to get over. It’s hard enough gathering ones with meat, LOL. When steamed broccoli or a bagged salad makes up the majority of your dinner side-dishes, it’s […]

Lately, I have been thinking a lot about boundaries. In my thirties was when this word started having some serious relevance in my life. Mostly, as something that I needed to put up in order to protect myself. I had to create boundaries with my mother when I got married, with my husband when we […]
Cravings get a bad rap in the world of food and nutrition. For most of us gals, we have been raised believing that cravings are a sign of weakness and to give into them is shameful. What we were not taught is the truth…that cravings are a way the body informs us of what it […]
Diet. It is a word I despise. It never brought anything but feelings of failure to me. Not surprising, when you think of how, statistically, the majority of people who go on diets end up gaining back the weight they lost and then some. I always say, “If diets worked, there would be no such […]
Ever start your day of with a bang? You wake up, have some fresh coffee, eat a nourishing breakfast, get in a great workout before heading off to work. You feel alert and all “happy-go-lucky.” Then… you screw it up. A co-worker happened to bring in some surprise cupcakes that you just couldn’t resist. You […]
