I struggled with health issues for more than 15 years and tried everything to heal myself. Doctors, tests, Naturopaths, colonics, cutting out foods and food groups, cooking everything from scratch, becoming vegan, yoga, meditation, you name it. 

 

Unfortunately, this didn't result in healing my gut; it actually resulted in disordered eating behaviours such as anxiety around food, thinking about food from the moment I woke up (food noise), skipping meals, overeating, bingeing, distrust of my body, ignoring hunger cues and feeling disconnected from my fullness feelings. I felt guilt for eating "bad" foods, shame for my body not functioning properly, and tried to hide my bloated belly with oversized clothing. 

​

After becoming a certified Ayurveda Health Counsellor, I noticed my clients didn't make huge shifts just with my food recommendations. It intrigued me, and I started to do more research into what really made changes for people, what was needed to make people healthy, confident in their food choices and at ease in their body? Including myself! 

​

I found the principles of Intuitive Eating to give real, practical tools for my clients and me, and Body Image Coaching (body neutrality) created the biggest transformation in my clients. 

​

I developed a coaching program called The Peaceful Eating Path where I combine Ayurveda, Intuitive Eating, and Body Image Coaching to transform my clients' relationship with food, body, health, and themselves.
