About me

 

For whatever reason, I got into a right mess with food and my weight.

I had conflicting voices in my head — one part of me wanted to eat for comfort, distraction, or peace… and another part of me wanted to lose weight, to be free from shame and fear.

Whenever one part was satisfied, the other went underground — silenced, but still simmering. Eventually, the part of me that wanted to eat took over. It felt like an unstoppable force.

I became a nutritional therapist. I earned a degree in psychology. I explored spiritual teachings, hoping to find peace. And for many years, I believed I was powerless when it came to food — that I needed external control, a diet, a food plan, something stronger than me to keep me safe.

For 14 years, I stuck rigidly to a weighted and measured food plan. And in some ways, it worked — I lost weight, I felt more stable. But it came at a huge cost.

Eventually, I got curious:
Was I really powerless?
Could I trust myself with food?
Was there a way to make peace with all foods and still feel grounded — not compulsive, not out of control?

That curiosity changed everything.

Now I help others find what I found:
That food is not the enemy.
That weight is not the enemy.
And that we can live in balance — free from the inner war, free from the shame — by learning to listen to the parts of ourselves we’ve tried to silence.

We don’t need more rules.
We need presence, compassion, and a way home to ourselves.
