The Rebel Nutritionist

I have a question for you — do you ever think about the food you eat? I mean really think about where it comes from and who is growing it? Have you ever had a garden or grown your own food? If you have you probably have a whole different appreciation for farmers, as it's not always so easy tending to one's garden! But you also know that food you have grown yourself tastes completely different than...

Have you ever heard the saying, You don't know what you don't know?

I truly believe that anyone and everyo...

We had an amazing Q&A session live on Instagram on Wednesday. Here is the replay if you didn't attend live. I love answering all your questions, and I'll do it any opportunity I get!

Today I dive into part 2 of the Ozempic conversation.  There is so much misinformation about this class of drugs and  I wanted to take a moment to share what I have learned and talk about what I have found through the research that I have done on this topic.

How often have you stopped, I mean really stopped, to take a moment out of your day to contemplate what really matters to you? Perhaps you meditate, perhaps you journal. And yes, those things do allow us to pause, but often during that time our mind is still occupied with other thoughts.   I want to know if you actually take time to ponder what brings you nourishment in your life? I am not just ta...

Yes, she is back!  That is right, I am referring to our amazing life coach, Shari Coltune.  There is so much to explore when it comes to self-reflection, self-care and working through our own subconscious beliefs, and stories, so I felt it was only appropriate to bring Shari back to talk about boundaries. This is a topic that has come up so often in my practice and I know there is a ton of buzz ab...

Today I got to talk to Dr. Sherri Greene, a restorative medicin...

I just loved my conversation with Dr. Tamy Faireman. Dr. Tamy, a former plastic and reconstructive surgeon for over 25 years now refers to herself as a SOUL surgeon, which could not be more fitting for the work she has become so passionate about.

Do you find yourself making New Year's resolutions that you simply don't stick to?  Do you wonder why it's so difficult to stay committed to the promises we make ourselves?

Today we talk...
