Partnered Wellness 

I LOVE to be in the kitchen, experimenting with flavors, colors, and textures. Luckily, plants offer me a lot to work with!

 

This is why I am excited to be a partner with Purple Carrot! 

​

I love the idea of this service for those that don't feel super cozy in the kitchen but are ready to get their plant forward love going.

 

While I love to share my recipes and meal plans with you (and delivery if you live local)- Purple Carrot kits are a dream if you are looking for the ingredients at your door with all the scoop- a one stop shop! (Box, haha). 

​

A little from Purple Carrot:

​

We believe big changes start with small seeds.
What matters is that you get started.

We believe in breaking boundaries. We’re not doing what’s typical, we’re doing what works for you.

We’re pro-plant, not anti-animal. When it comes to plant-based living, we’re realistic. Eat what you love, but eat more plants.

 

PS. This service was a game changer for me when I was stuck in bed with a back injury- my husband was able to prepare meals for us- just as I would but without me telling him what to do or buy. EASY PEASY BABY! 

​In my 11 years of holistic nutrition coaching, the landscape is always changing, just like my clients needs- and they frequently need more.

 

More information, education & support. 

​

While supplements are never prescribed, they may be suggested- and I want only the BEST for you. 

​

My clients often say they have had labs done, but cannot understand them- or want more information on specific testing.

 

Previous experience as well as continuing education in regards to evaluating blood chemistry/ blood work results/ pathology- I have found aiming my clients and myself with more metrics and info, the better. 

​

After extensive research, I was thrilled to partner with Equilife. 

​

who is Equilife? 

​

EquiLife is an innovative functional medicine company dedicated to helping people live healthier, longer, more productive lives.

 

They uniquely offer customers educational content, premium wellness supplements & protocols, health coaching, and at-home functional medicine labs to support them on their path to wellness.

​

I am proud to be able to suggest and help interpret testing for: 

​

• minerals & metals

• candida, metabolic testing, and vitamins

• stress, mood, and metabolism

• food sensitivity

• omega 3 and inflammation

I was thrilled when these types of partnerships became accessible-well kind of.

 

For nutrition professionals like myself to help clients, this is fantastic.

 

For the everyday person on the street, it is a slippery slope. 

 

These drugs are excellent when used as intended and while following/ or making lifestyle changes.

 

However, in our current wellness climate, GLP-1 & similar products have become not only big buzzwords, but are also widely prescribed & unregulated.

​​​

Many that are told they are suffering from insulin resistance or pre-diabetes, needing to lose a large amount of weight- aren't given the proper education or protocols, and the use of this wonderous drug sadly falls in that same boat. 

​

Example: I have a client who has been prescribed these meds by her general practitioner without any mention of lifestyle change, protocol, as well as no thought to check with other current meds. She not only wasn't seeing results, she felt like garbage. 

 

After we met, we eliminated a medication that was counteractive with her GLP-1, as well as lifestyle and diet changes.  She is currently down 10# and feeling less foggy, tired, and food noise is off! 

​

This partnership is important to me because while I do not shout it from the rooftops (I do not want to be someone adding to the problem) I am lucky to be able to offer or suggest these medications and offer assistance while using them as well.

 

I do not ever claim to diagnose or treat, but I do offer well educated accountability and expertise.
