Wellness Babe

hey babe!

I created The Wellness Babe Program from a deep desire to support women in breaking free from feeling unbalanced and out of control around food & in their bodies. For years, I jumped from diet to diet desperate to change my body through punishment & restriction. Instead of choosing health I chose dieting. Instead of choosing the quality of my food I chose quantity, portions, points & macros. Instead of choosing self-love I chose self-loathing. I was totally lost, either on or off, good or bad. Can you relate?

What I learned was missing when I ultimately healed my disordered relationship with food was the WHY. Why I was making the choices I was, what mattered to me and what didn’t, and how I felt when I implemented those choices. From there it no longer felt confusing or challenging, in fact it started to become FUN because I was in the driver’s seat - proud, secure & confident in how I ate, thought & lived.

Wellness Babe centers around empowering education, and the insight & inspiration to take back control. Control from cookie-cutter dieting. Control from misinformation & myths. And control from anyone or anything that tells you that you can’t love yourself just the way you are.

This program will teach you how to ground yourself, feel empowered around food & in your body, plus take what you’ve learned & keep it up forever - in a way that feels completely doable, enjoyable and totally YOU.

I cannot wait for you to become a total Wellness Babe :)

"Hi! I love your program! The material is so informational yet digestible! And the exercises are very helpful in terms of strengthening mindset and focusing on your why. The daily tracker is very helpful in terms of identifying habits that lead to undesirable eating habits. Like yesterday I realized that eating in my car was not mindful and feelings of guilt. The video lectures are helpful and the tips are great for all lifestyles and easy to implement."

Some of the reasons diets don’t work & what this program is NOT:

1. They focus too much on quantity over quality and the simplistic idea of calories in, calories out.

2. Diets are a cookie-cutter and one-size-fits all model, largely ignoring bio-individuality and other parts of health besides just what you eat.

3. They lack education, science and empowerment about nutrition and other factors of health leaving us only to a strict list of yes’s and no’s.

4. Diets ignore mindset; often causing disordered eating, obsession and control, suppressing the root of why we strive to diet and lose weight in the first place that must be acknowledged in order to create true, permanent change.

5. When we “fail”, diets enforce the idea that there’s something wrong with us, when there isn’t. It’s not you, it’s the diet. Diets are designed to fail, so you keep coming back for more and become a lifelong customer and lifelong dieter.

I’m here to help you break the cycle! I want you to be your own Wellness Babe and feel empowered by food, not controlled by it. This is about taking the control back, learning, experimenting and finding what works for YOU for the long run.

"I’m finally starting to have self acceptance! And that took a lot of weight off my shoulders! I feel emotionally lighter and care less about weight. I used to feel so anxious eating sweet potatoes but I’ve incorporated them and other root vegetables back in my diet and can’t be happier!

For me, the magic of mindset was most helpful. Really love all the PDF’s for detailed and digestible information. Also, the exercises at the end of the PDF’s are very helpful in gaining clarity."

After working 1:1 with women for the last 3 years I’ve learned that feeling balanced, empowered and educated about health and wellness is the truest and most important relationship with food and their body one can cultivate. I want you to be educated, not obsessed. Once you understand more about the science behind how certain foods work in your body, what’s going to support you in thriving and what won’t, how to support your digestion, hormones and energy + the magic of mindset - you are in control, not the diet.

Wellness Babe won’t teach you to be a by-the-book intuitive eater but it will teach you to be intuitive and make choices that feel good. This means leaving room for exploration and ups and downs - by the way. We’re done with the quick-fix that never works, right? While we will certainly discuss the concepts of nutrition, I also won’t get dogmatic - instead arming you with the knowledge you need to feel best in your body. But the beauty is then you get to take what resonates and what doesn’t, no longer held back by eat this, not that.

Eating well is a form of self-love and self-respect…once you get to the place where you believe in that and care enough about yourself to honor it with the foods that work for you, it will feel easy and effortless and not a push, pull of being on the wagon, off the wagon. (*spoiler alert we’ll be burning the wagon!)

Use this program as a guide to break free from rigid diets and the concept of calories in, calories out. Also acknowledge that health is about more than just what you eat - check out what you’ll learn in respect your body + the power of perspective and mindset in restore your mindset. It’s all important and we’re going to cover every piece of the puzzle. Let’s get you on the path to becoming your own Wellness Babe!

So...are you ready!? I can't wait to share this information & inspiration with you!

xo,
