Hi, I’m Amanda!
Registered Dietitian and Diabetes Educator, Passionate about Bringing Out Your Spark
Have you ever thought to yourself “I know what to do for my health but I’m just not doing it?” Does the phrase “I don’t even know where to start” sound familiar? You’re not alone.
One of my greatest joys when working with people is seeing the spark light and the confidence start shining through when they realize some small tweaks in their approach can help get them back on the path toward their goals.
Why I Do This Work
I had my own health scare at 18. While I learned that nutrition wouldn’t have changed what happened, I became interested in learning what I could do to take care of myself and nutrition’s large role in that.
Like many of us, I once felt like extremes was the only way to be healthy – but through education and personal experience I’ve put that aside and help others start to make this shift too.
I wanted to be able to show people that nutrition goes beyond depriving yourself of your favorite foods and that health looks different on everyone. I also loved that nutrition is something that every human on earth is connected to and affected by.
My Nutrition Approach
My philosophy is that small, sustainable adjustments can lead to big, lasting changes.
The scale is only a small part of your health picture and is usually not the most important part.
Your health goals should fit around your life, not the other way around.
Focus on what can be added in instead of lingering on what must be subtracted.
