Should I Hire a Certified Nutrition Coach?


It's a question that can change your life. According to the CDC research article “Mortality in the United States” heart disease is the number one cause of death in America. The article also highlights that high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, physical inactivity, obesity, and an unhealthy diet are some of the leading factors that contribute to heart disease. These are all factors that are within our control. Taking action towards better health is a powerful step in living your best life. A Certified Nutrition Coach (CNC) can help guide you toward a healthier lifestyle. 

Being a busy mother myself, I understand how easy it is to opt for fast food or delivery when trying to put dinner on the table. However, this approach not only exposes our children to food that causes heart disease but also teaches them unhealthy eating habits that they will carry with them for a long time. These learned behaviors will often create negative habits surrounding nutrition. In these busy times, nutrition is most often the first thing to go when we are just trying to put food on the table so we can help our kids with homework and get them to bed on time for school in the morning.

Balancing the roles of a working mother can be challenging, and I face these struggles every day. Often, we try to tackle the most significant issues and overlook nutrition. Have you ever considered the impact this could have on your body?  

I remember when I used to eat fast food almost every day. I thought I was eating the healthiest thing on the menu, but it still had little to no nutritional value, high in calories, sodium, and saturated fats. By the end of the week, I would suffer from massive heartburn, which made it difficult to sleep. Now as I write this blog post it hits me, I cannot remember the last time I had heartburn. That is the beauty of nutrition and health it is a never-ending journey of discovery and small successes that lead to you being the best you that you can be living a more fulfilled life and teaching these habits to your children who will then carry it with them for years to come. Nutrition is not just an afterthought to me health is the best wealth you can have and the best gift you can offer to your children.

 My Challenges

When I started my journey towards better health, I was lucky enough to not have any major health issues aside from being overweight. As I progressed, I realized that I had been ignoring some of my mental health problems for a long time. Before I began focusing on my health, I convinced myself that my anxiety and depression were just a normal part of life that I had to navigate and deal with. 

I was that mother who would almost every night lay in her bed and lose sleep over thoughts of dying or possibly losing someone she loved and thought that this was normal. I recall times when I would sit in my room and become overwhelmingly sad without being able to explain why. Looking back on those years, I realize how much time I wasted not enjoying life, my husband, and my children.

When I transitioned to a plant-based lifestyle one of the most difficult challenges I faced was finding a balance between cooking for my non-plant-based family and myself without spending too much money and time in the kitchen. However, I learned some helpful tricks and tips that allowed me to cook for both me and my family, and even enjoy the same meals with them. It's possible to create delicious meals that everyone can enjoy together. I've been there and learned from my own experience, so let me show you how to make it work for you too!

Improving my health gave me a new perspective on life and equipped me with the tools to cope with stress and the unpredictability of motherhood. Fathers play a huge role in the family dynamics, but mothers are the oil that keeps the wheels from rusting. However, if the oil that we are giving to ourselves and our family is toxic it will affect how that vehicle runs.

It's important to understand that learning new things and making positive changes to your lifestyle does not happen overnight. Nutritional coaching is not a quick-fix solution. The journey to enhance your health starts with gaining knowledge, growing, and continuing to make progress in the long run. Once you start feeling better, it becomes a priority to keep that feeling alive. You will never realize how bad you feel until you start feeling good.

My goal is to provide them with alternative options that will empower them to make positive changes toward a healthier lifestyle. After every session, my clients will leave feeling empowered with new knowledge to help them on their nutritional journey. If they apply the principles correctly, they will start to feel better and ultimately live better.
