Summertime is relax time, and that often includes relaxed thoughts about food choices. It’s a social time, activity time – and food is either negatively judged, or given exemptions. It’s time to get back on track and get your body and food habits winter ready again.

Who are you as an eater?

Lisa             September is my Birthday month. And like everyone I take pause to reflect on what I have done, where I have been, and where I am going. If you have been following me for any length of time now, you understand that I have overcome a lot. I had a life changing event happen a few years back that allowed me the opportunity to go down deep, deep into myself and ask a lot of questions, and come up with even more answers. The life changing event that happened for me forced me into changing my whole life – from career, to friendships, to how I care for myself, to what I believe in, and how I want to live my life. I created a whole new lifestyle dynamic for myself. I healed emotionally and I am stronger than ever. 

With all of this I have dedicated my focus to helping others (that’s YOU!) find their truth. Truth is a way of life. It’s deciphering who you are, and why. It’s getting to the nitty gritty of your soul purpose. Living in truth ideally reduces poor decisions, bad situations, and emotional hurt. 

And just how is this connected to food? The way you live in life – directly mirrors how you manage your own personal relationship with food. The reason people are unhappy with their weight or body image, is because they are unhappy in life in some way. That “way” is different for everyone – Everyone has their own story. For some, perhaps pain was experienced and never properly dealt with (shifting the way their body expresses itself). Someone else may not be able to fulfill their deepest desires because they feel stuck somewhere in life (stuck in unhappy & unwanted habits). Yet others may be holding something back (and holding onto weight) – out of fear or confusion. Not living your souls truth directly dictates the domino affect of all of your emotions, reactions, and actions that follow – in the next moment, the day, the experience … and on until you properly address your beliefs and perceptions around your STORY. 

As a Lifestyle Coach with a Focus on Nutrition – I guide you on your journey to fulfilling your desires and achieving your goals by mapping your dynamic, your relationships, and your beliefs – and addressing (perhaps even changing) your perceptions and bringing value to your Life. More importantly (and what I want you to remember the most) I help you learn to manage your emotions as you continue to practice your life.

Yup, you read that correctly – I said practice your life. Practicing your habits and managing your emotions – in life and in food – brings balance and success to your truth.

This may sound confusing – or hopefully, instead, it piqued your curiosity. Curiosity is a good thing. And I want you to have support along the way. To learn more, keep reading and following me – because I want to do for you what I have done for myself.

Parents often struggle with packing lunches and working and getting their children to school, as well as any extra curricular and planned after school programs. Making sure your kids eat enough throughout the day can be tough. Healthy choices and proper management while keeping everyone happy can be a challenge at times, especially if one or more of the children or family members has a disability, medical condition, or food allergy. Septembers Workshop is geared toward healthy food options, food preparation, getting the children involved, and how to talk to your kids about food relationships. Each family is a unique dynamic, and customizable strategies will sustain your nutritional needs throughout the school year and beyond.
