For many years, I have worked with 1000's of people in transforming their lives and health through a whole foods plant based diet.  But one of the biggest issues I saw was that no matter how much success they were having, often they would struggle with their new lifestyle and would 'fall off the wagon' and struggle to stick with it. 

They would end up having 'cheat days', bingeing, and creating a cycle that left them feeling out of control and frustrated.

And I recognized this because I, too, would struggle and couldn't figure out why or how to stop this.

And since I come from a research and academic background, I returned to the science - of psychology around addictions, food and how it impacts biochemistry, emotional eating, behavior change, neural plasticity and how habits are formed.....  and realized that every time someone goes on someone else's meal plan, they give their power away.  They tell themselves that they don't trust their body or themself.  And they would never go on a diet in the first place if they didn't hate something about their body.

So - although this meetup has been about living a whole foods plant based lifestyle, I have been stepping back more and more from the actual nutrition around that and helping people to stop this crazy cycle so that they are empowered to make choices that stick. 

And a big part of this starts with stopping the shame and hatred of our bodies - which we all know is not an easy thing to do.  I eventually talk about gentle nutrition = once people are empowered to be able to make choices that are not about creating control around food but about truly creating health and wellness for themselves - which doesn't leave them feeling deprived and restricted.  It becomes a natural choice.

So come join me as we explore true healing with our relationship with food and body image and achieve TRUE FOOD FREEDOM!
