About Me
For years I struggled with disordered eating, a preoccupation with health, and an unhealthy obsession with my body.
I truly believed having a certain type of body would be the answer to all of my problems.
As it turns out, this obsession created so many more problems: it ended up disrupting my fertility, clouding my intuition, and stealing my energy and focus for the things I truly cared about. I know what it feels like to be preoccupied with the overwhelming feeling you are not OK just the way you are.
Healing through intuitive eating
Over the years, I found healing through intuitive eating and collected other tools and techniques that have helped me increase self-awareness and reconnect with my body’s wisdom. This process is as healing for body image issues and disordered eating as it is for the changes and challenges that come along with parenthood and other tough transitions in life. Through years of training as a health coach and therapist I have learned that there is a lot we can do to free ourselves from negative thought patterns and self-doubt. We can learn to feel free to trust ourselves and live a life that is aligned with our true values.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching Netflix, practicing yoga, hiking with my husband, son and dog, eating ice cream and fresh sourdough bread.
