Nutrition Philosophy
Keep it Simple
You are complex and so is your relationship to food and your body. We value that complexity and believe that together, we can get back to what the basics for YOU are. The world is noisy - especially when it comes to food and body. Our goal in our work together is to help identify and simplify that noise and empower you to make decisions that feel simple and meaningful.

All Foods Fit
There are no “good and bad,” foods. It’s time to put food on an even playing field. Your body wants you to trust its abilities. It craves unconditional permission to eat any and all foods. This isn’t a thoughtless approach, but rather a practice built on awareness, individual preferences, behaviors, needs, and knowledge.
Your “Why” Matters
Your “WHY” is so important. Identifying your values is key to understanding what choices you make day to day and the motivation and intention behind those choices. Values have the ability to drive choices that result in more engaged living.
