I’m here to help you eat delicious food that works for your body, feel like you FINALLY have the perfect figure for YOU, and teach you how to take care of your beautiful self.

You are here to figure out how to be comfortable around food – know when to eat, how much to eat, and what to eat — while still being able to enjoy a piece of cake when you want a freaking piece of cake.

You are here so you can walk into a room of people with your head held high, feeling like your outfit and hair is on point, and having the confidence in your body and yourself to speak your truth.

You are here to learn how to take care of yourself in a way that’s actually FUN and enjoyable, rather than a dreaded boot camp class or a restrictive diet.

I’m here to help you eat delicious food that works for your body, feel like you FINALLY have the perfect figure for YOU, and teach you how to take care of your beautiful self so you are glowing from the inside out.

You’ve been dreaming of what you will do when you finally lose the last ten pounds — what you will wear, who you will date, what fulfilling career you will have, what remarkable vacations you will go on…

That feeling you will have once you have the perfect body – ah, it’s indescribable! You just can’t wait to see what lies ahead for you once you get there.

So, you’ve probably tried a few diets or restricted yourself around food to get you where you want to be.

Contrary to your indescribable fantasies, the diets can be easily described as restrictive, boring, tasteless, soul-sucking, social life-killing.

And you probably have believed that you need to diet to get you to your perfect body, which will lead you to your dream life.

The start of that diet is a glimmer of hope that your life can and will be better.

The diet is the ticket to paradise.
The get-out-of-jail-free card.
The wind beneath your wings!

But let me fill you a little secret…

The diet is not helping anything.

In case you haven’t heard…

With that knowledge, you should know that you actually need the exact opposite of a diet to get you where you want to be.

Instead of restricting, you need to add in food that tastes good to you and satisfies your body’s needs. Instead of eating boring, tasteless food, you need to add flavor and variety to your food and life.

Instead of ruining your social life, you need to enjoy your social life in a way that brings you energy.

Instead of a soul-sucking diet, you need to start soul-searching to help you figure out what activities, career, and relationships will fill your soul on a regular basis.

The diet is not your answer.

Luckily for you, I have the answer to get you that dream body + life you’ve been hoping for.

Listen to your body.
Love your body.
Take care of your body.

It’s simple enough, but it’s hard to implement on your own after years of fighting food and your body.

Women come to me when they are struggling to figure out how to trust their food choices and feel confident in their bodies.

They want support, guidance, and accountability from someone that has been in their shoes (15 years of dieting and body hating over here!) and has come out the other side — eating what I want, confident in my body and my true self, doing my life’s work, traveling often, enjoying time with my husband, son, friends, and family…

In my coaching programs, I help women in the following areas:

Your relationship with food

Body image

Finding your happy weight

Creating delicious food that works for your body

Daily self-care practices for mind, body, and soul

Finding confidence in yourself and your life decisions

Feeling better in your body and trusting that you are taking care of yourself in the best way possible for you

Emotional eating – working on dealing with emotions instead of eating your emotions

I’m here to guide you to your dream life — including food freedom and body confidence and whatever else your dream includes — through health and lifestyle coaching.

I’m the health & lifestyle coach around here calling B.S. on the diet industry and saying heck yes to delicious food and body love. For the past 3 years, I’ve been on a mission to help women quit dieting for good so they can finally trust their food choices, be confident in their bodies, and live a life free from unnecessary rules and restrictions. This all takes place while eating and cooking some ridiculously delicious food.

I’m here, doing this work because I’ve been there too. I started counting calories at the age of 12 and spent the following 15 years trying every diet out there. I later learned that the diet was simply a hope for a better life – one where I fit in, looked as pretty as the other girls, and was able to relax and enjoy more — rather than stressing to be and look a certain way.

Once I found intuitive eating, all that changed for me. I learned to eat the right foods for my body while still enjoying my favorite foods, learned how to love and take care of myself on a regular basis, and learned that the best version of me is ME — not me trying to be someone I’m not.

These days, I’m living my best life – spending time with my baby boy, Cooper, practicing yoga, traveling around Europe, drinking tea + red wine, working on my latest craft project, and eating the best chocolate in the whole wide world (I do live in Switzerland, after all). As much as I love and miss my hometown in the San Francisco Bay Area, my husband, son and I are happy to call Zurich home.

I’m truly glad you are here, and I cannot wait to support you on your journey to a better, more delicious life!

I am a certified health coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

Mindset Tips for Swimsuit Shopping. My body doesn’t look like she once did...

But I still managed to find a new swimsuit to flaunt this summer 👙

I asked you all in stories if you wanted my mindset tricks for swimsuit shopping and it was a resounding YES.

So let me tell you what I did...

🙏Prior to even going to the store, I’ve been practicing body gratitude like crazy. This body of mine birthed a baby, survived a pandemic, and allows me to do so many things I love doing. So when the negative Nancy has things to say about my softer tummy, I kill her with kindness 😉
📱I started researching styles that I thought might flatter my current figure. I don’t think a string bikini is for me at the moment, but I was excited to check out the higher waisted styles that are popular right now and the fun one pieces.
😊 I went shopping when I was in a good mood and wasn’t stressing about anything else - because I know and you should know that doing something triggering on an already stressful day would send you spiraling.
⭐️ Once I got to the store, I took advice from @judithgaton and decided that I was the star of the show and these swimsuits were auditioning for ME. So when a swimsuit didn’t fit right, the swimsuit was at fault, not my body! This was a HUGE help because it made it so much more black and white, knowing the suit was out there, I just had to keep looking.
🏖 I focused on the future fun I would have in that swimsuit. Having a day to myself at a nice pool next week, going to the beach, taking Tanner for his first swim in the lake, hot tubbing with Cooper at my dad’s house. These are the reasons why I want a swimsuit - not because I need to look a certain way to look a certain way.
💕 Lastly, I realized that “good enough” is perfect. Swimsuit shopping is hard, especially when you’ve struggled with body image, so trying to find that perfect suit might never happen. I just want one that makes me feel good enough to do what I want to do.

Let me know which number you are going to use when you head out swimsuit 🩱 👙shopping next and where you are most excited to flaunt your suit!👇
