“Even though I know exactly how important right food choices are for me, and how huge an effect it has on my life when I prioritize this, especially lunch often gets forgotten in my super-packed days. Michelle showed me, how I can easily incorporate it without it becoming an additional burden. She not only held me accountable, but – even though I feel rather aware about my nutrition already – she pointed out some blind spots to me, was extremely supportive and adaptive in difficult phases, and seems like a fountain of knowledge about anything food. Because of Michelle I have more energy now, my afternoon lows are minimal, and I even started creating new recipes again, which I haven’t done in ages! :)) Thanks so much for your work, Michelle!”

“Before working with Michelle, lunch was not very exciting or satisfying for me. With her help I was able to identify what healthy foods and recipes which would fulfill both of those things so I can have energy and feel good. I’ve developed a habit of meal prepping healthy lunches ahead of time so I can easily make the right choices when I’m ready to eat. Not only is she a great accountability partner, but she’s also an amazing resource for all things food. Thank you so much for helping me feel and perform my best!”

“I love reporting a positive change in my life! Working with Michelle as my coach to change the way I plan, prep and enjoy lunch has really been a huge change for me. Michelle coached me to focus on what I wanted to accomplish, research alternatives to positive change, and implement those changes in a step-by-step manner. I am so happy with the results!”

“I met with Michelle when I was struggling to find balance in many areas. I’m a mom of 3 who was fulfilling a volunteer position that demanded a lot of my time and was homeschooling my 3 kids. To say that food planning and prep dropped on my list of priorities is an understatement but that wasn’t the way I wanted it.

In talking through things with Michelle, I realized that I really wanted to reestablish mealtime and prep time as quality time with my family rather than an afterthought in our hurried schedule. Michelle helped me think through what goals would help me find my “groove” again when it came to providing food for my family. I realized the problem wasn’t that we couldn’t find the time, but that I needed better planning with regards to food so we could make the most of the time we had.

Michelle helped me set specific goals for menu planning, shopping, budget and prep time and we have made great strides to owning and enjoying mealtimes as a family again! ”

“I wanted some different ways I could season my meats and vegetables with because having the same thing gets really tiring. When I met with Michelle, she gave me seasoning tips, but also went above and beyond and gave me suggestions for healthy dips I could use also! It was exactly what I needed!”

“ I’ve really appreciate working with Michelle. This experience has been very enlightening! At the beginning, I was really motivated to work toward a goal. The process led me into several weeks of introspection, asking myself why I had set the goals I had, and then realizing other priorities in my life took precedence. Needless to say, I changed goals several times, and settled on a goal that I felt was critical to the well-being of my family => my personal finance. Throughout the process, Michelle was very supportive, asking me questions that initiated the reflection. I found it very helpful when Michelle would provide me with resources to explore and possibly integrate into behavior changes. I really like the tiny habits philosophy. This is a technique I use most. It helps me to see change and feel a sense of accomplishment. I would recommend Michelle and this process of self discovery to anyone who is seeking to improve. Thanks Michelle!”

“Michelle has done a great job supporting me in staying accountable to the mindful eating and healthy lifestyle methodology I wanted to start following again. ”

I originally connected with Michelle through a coaching app with the desire to leverage mindful eating to lose weight. I knew many techniques around health and mindful eating, but wanted someone with strong coaching ability to help me with accountability. Michelle was just that. Not only did she hold me accountable, but she asked the right questions and made tailored suggestions to help me achieve my goals. I lost weight and felt good about it. Now, over 6 months later I am still working with Michelle to connect on my goals and progress. I highly recommend her and her methodology to help anyone achieve their food or weight loss goals in a way that feels natural and easy.
