You need to do this for you. For your sanity. For your health.
Feeding yourself is theoretically a 3-time-a-day task. You gotta eat. And yet so many of us struggle daily with the fundamentals: what should I eat? How should I prepare it? What's for dinner?
Usually the challenges around meal times come down to one of three unresolved issues:

Usually the challenges around meal times come down to one of three unresolved issues:
- You aren't clear on what "diet" is right for you. You may still be experimenting with different dietary theories to find what works for your particular body, lifestyle and values.
- You lack interest or confidence in basic cooking skills. So you dread getting in the kitchen to cook for yourself.
- You haven't yet found a good routine that works for you. You feel like you're reinventing the wheel every week when it comes to shopping and prepping for meals.
I work with clients to help them create more ease around food. Here is what we focus on:
- Hone in on the type of foods you want for maximum nutrition, energy and pleasure.
- Develop a repertoire of recipes that are uniquely suited for you personally. There are a ton of meal plans around, but this one will be designed specifically FOR YOU.
- Discover your own best way of eating...your ideal diet. We learn to let go of the restriction and depersonalization of mainstream diet theories. A traditional dietary model can be a great jumping off place for figuring out what works best for you personally. But it can also create a lot of confusion and unnecessary limitations. We can start to explore what works for you in reality versus in theory.
Cooking for yourself is an act of self love.
As a professional chef for over 20 years and a certified holistic health coach, I struggled myself with feeling organized around meal time. I bounced around between different diets, trying to figure out what I could and couldn't eat on any given day. I was confused about what was right for me. And I didn't have a plan.
It took a major health crisis and a lot of introspection for me to realize that no one can tell me exactly what is right for me. There are certainly core principles that all of the nutrition research shares. But where the conflicting information crosses paths is where we must discover what works for us personally. Learning to tune in to my own body and trust my own intuition helped me to let go of all dietary labels and find my own way.
And that led to a major simplification of the way I cook for myself. Meal times are easier than they've ever been. And I find more pleasure in my food than ever, because I am eating foods that feel good for me.

Because externally food is pleasure. Internally it is information. Getting those two things in harmony is key
to an empowered way of eating.
