NUTRITION COACHING
Whether you “fell off the wagon” and need a helping hand, need ideas to get out of “healthy eating boredom”, or need insight as to why you aren’t achieving your health goals, I will work with you.These nutrition coaching sessions can be done in person, over the phone, or even through Skype.

SUPERMARKET TOUR
Is healthy shopping a daunting task? It’s certainly much easier when I walk the aisles with you, letting you know what foods are worth putting in your cart and which ones are better off staying on the shelves! I’ll also help you understand food labels, ingredient lists, and health claims.

In this hour-long workshop, I share recipes that turn the concept of healthy – and tasty! – snacking into reality. Best of all, you – and your friends – get to taste the amazing results.

NOTE: This workshop is best suited to groups of 4 or 6.

PERSONALIZED NUTRITION TALK AND Q&A SESSION
The perfect addition to a wedding shower, after-school activity program, corporate wellness seminar, or company retreat. You choose the nutrition topic you want me to cover – and then it’s your turn to ask me what’s on your mind!
