Let's get super honest: Is This Service Actually Right For YOU?

Graphic question mark

Hell Yes, We will Probably Click If:

Probably Not Your Nutritional Soulmate If:

  • Your body is throwing a chaotic rebellion and you're tired of doctors shrugging it off

  • You've tried approximately 37 diets and now have a relationship with food that's more complicated than your last three romantic relationships combined

  • You want to understand WHY your gut has declared war, not just be handed a sad list of foods to avoid

  • The thought of another perky nutritionist saying, "just eat more kale!" makes you want to commit crimes

  • You appreciate someone who will call out diet culture bullshit when they see it

  • You're looking for ways to feel better in your actual, real-life body—not some mythical "after" version

  • You can handle straight talk delivered with dark humour and zero sugar-coating (unless you're literally fuelled by sugar, in which case I can be a little bit sweet)

  • You've got ovaries that are staging a hormonal coup (or had them at some point) and need someone who gets the chaos

  • Your primary goal is watching the number on the scale drop (I'm about as interested in your weight as I am in cryptocurrency)

  • You want a meal-by-meal plan that eliminates all thinking about food (I'm not your personal food dictator)

  • You're hoping for a magic list of "good" and "bad" foods (Life's too short for food guilt trips)

  • You're looking for quick fixes or "detoxes" (Your liver , kidneys and skin have that covered, thanks)

  • You want someone to monitor your calorie intake (Math was never my favorite subject)

  • You prefer your healthcare providers to be relentlessly positive and never mention poop (We're gonna talk about poop, it might get dark ….)

  • The thought of occasionally laughing about your health struggles makes you uncomfortable (Dark humour is how we survive this mess)

  • You want to "get your body back" after [insert life event] (Your body never actually left—it's been with you the whole time)

The Unvarnished Truth About What You're Getting

What I Absolutely WILL Do For You:
 

What I Absolutely WON'T Do:

  • Transform complicated nutrition science into actual English you understand

  • Listen to your weird symptoms without making that face doctors make

  • Help you connect the dots between what you eat and how you feel

  • Create strategies that work with your actual life, not some fantasy world where you have infinite time and energy

  • Provide a space where no health concern is too embarrassing (trust me, I've heard it ALL)

  • Adjust and pivot when something isn't working because bodies are chaotic little ecosystems

  • Celebrate small wins because healing isn't linear and sometimes "I pooped normally today" is victory-dance worthy

  • Use humour and sarcasm willy nilly to make discussing difficult health topics slightly less awful

  • Create a day-by-day meal plan (I'm not your personal chef or food police)

  • Focus on weight loss as a goal (Your body is not a problem to be solved)

  • Count your calories or track your macros (Life's too short and math is hard)

  • Hand you a binder of sad, flavourless "diet" recipes (Food should bring joy, not punishment)

  • Promise miracle cures or overnight transformations (If I could do that, I'd be charging WAY more)

  • Judge you when you text me about eating an entire pizza at 2am (Been there)

  • Use the phrase "clean eating" without violent eye-rolling (Food doesn't have moral value)

  • Pretend there's one perfect way of eating that works for everyone (If there was, we'd all be doing it)

The Awkward but Necessary Self-Assessment

Be brutally honest with yourself here. No one's watching (except maybe your cat)

Please complete this simple form (your answers WILL NOT be sold on the black market)

What's your ACTUAL goal with nutrition support?
"I want to lose X pounds/kilos" (Proceed with caution)
"I want to figure out why my body is betraying me" (We're talking the same language)
"I want to stop feeling like food is the enemy" (Pull up a chair)
"I need help managing my unpredictable symptoms" (You're in the right place)
Other
Would you rather:
Be told exactly what to eat because thinking about food is exhausting
Learn why certain foods make you feel like a walking death so you can make your own informed choices
Other
How do you feel about this statement: "My worth has nothing to do with my size or what I eat"?
"That's new age nonsense" (We might have philosophical differences)
"I want to believe that but struggle" (Welcome to the club, we've got jackets)
"Hell yes, preach!" (We're going to get along just fine)
Other
When you picture "success" with nutrition, is it:
A smaller body and tight meal plan (I'm not your gal)
Understanding your specific food triggers without the guilt spiral (Now we're talking)
Having more energy to do the things you actually enjoy (Yes please)
Being able to eat without anxiety, pain, or complicated bathroom adventures (Bingo)
Other
Ideal way to measure progress:
Weekly weigh-ins (Hard pass from me)
"Holy crap, I slept through the night without pain!" moments (yaaas !!)
Noticing you haven't thought about food with fear in days (Here for this)
Being able to tell that annoying colleague "No thanks, Sharon, I don't want your miracle weight loss shake" (total irrefutable win)
