Hello There, I’m Andrea
I’m a holistic nutritionist with a serious passion for redefining plant based eating for the Gen X woman who’s ready to squash food rules and eat in a way that feels effortless.
Let’s be honest: you don’t just want to have energy and a clear head again. You want to actually enjoy foods and be able to eat abundantly without all the restrictions.
Welcome to the place where Gen Xers ditch diet culture and reclaim their life.
I USED TO HAVE CRIPPLING FATIGUE
In 2016 I developed an autoimmune condition and changed the way I ate because I thought that’s what I was “supposed” to do.
I went Paleo, then Keto, cut out so many carbs, added fat to my coffee and intermittent fasted all while working out twice a day, 5 days a week. Instead of getting stronger and leaner, I was rapidly putting on weight and getting weaker.
My fatigue and brain fog were so bad, that I was on the couch by 2pm every day.
But I stuck with it because that’s what all the influencers and coaches were saying that I had to do. I just got more sick, more fatigued, and gained so much weight that I was embarrassed to leave the house.
Eventually I realized this wasn’t working and this isn’t how I wanted to live the rest of my life. I didn’t want to have to cut out french fries and not enjoy fruit ever again. I knew that I felt better when I ate grains, legumes, and mostly plants. So I leaned into that and decided to trust myself again instead of what some influencer was saying.
Immediately I had energy again. My brain fog was gone, and I was having restful sleep for the first time in years. I also had the desire and energy to be able to start working out regularly again.
I felt happy for the first time in a long time. I actually wanted to leave the house and I was able to crawl out of my depression cycle.
I finally feel like I’m back to living the life that I want and it feels radiant.
