The Stress Eating Solution
In my private 1:1 coaching program, you learn how to decrease chronic stress in a way that works for your demanding lifestyle to feel like yourself again!
I get it, because I was you!
My life was just like the marathons I loved to run... Everything looked healthy from the outside, but I suffered from chronic stress on the inside, with no end in sight.
But stress was not my choice. I suffered from narcissistic abuse.
So I pushed myself to achieve more in my career, run faster marathons, do more for my family, and live on very little sleep while keeping everyone else happy! I lived in a reactive state and didn’t even know it! That’s how stress works. You might have learned to work through the stress, but your body and brain keep the score.
My lifestyle looked healthy, but I was using food, wine, and running to numb out. And then my spine collapsed.
I silently suffered from the symptoms of chronic stress with complete exhaustion, burnout, stress eating, and toxic shame…And, I’m guessing you’re suffering too.
You might not be able to understand why you don’t feel like yourself, only that something has to change!
In this program you will:
Feel more calm, confident, and in control of life, even with a busy life.
Decrease stress in a way that works for your demanding lifestyle - without having to find extra time in the day.
Quiet the negative self talk so you can have more self-compassion and be kinder to yourself
Let go of procrastination with perfectionistic tendencies - so you can pursue your dreams with ease and joy
Stay on track with your diet, healthy lifestyle, and goals
Feel higher levels of self-acceptance without the harsh, inner voice that requires you to work endlessly to receive validation from others.
Feel internal peace to stop stress eating for good.
The suffering stops now…
Here’s a Brain Based Approach to Stress Eating (That Actually Lasts!)
Why a Brain Based Approach Works
What’s TRULY holding you back!
You probably feel trapped in a pattern of managing symptoms and trying to find extra time to meditate, journal, breath, exercise, and more!
But using willpower to take healthier actions and find more time to do so just piles you deeper into a busy lifestyle with greater stress as old habits sneak back into your life…
So, you might find yourself eating emotionally, drinking an evening glass of wine, and watching movies instead of consistently practicing self care.
Negative self-talk, frustration and failure creep back in, and the cycle repeats!
This is the Doom Cycle!
-
STEP ONE: REFRAME
You do not need to work harder or find more time in your schedule to minimize stress.
Your brain is just stuck in old thought patterns making it feel impossible to handle chronic stress and to feel like yourself. Train your brain to create a life you love!
You will experience immediate relief and get lasting results because I get right to the heart of the subconscious, hidden challenges that keep you feeling stuck.
-
STEP TWO: RESTORE
You’ve already tried the traditional approaches to restore your health, but there’s no diet or exercise plan that can restore balance to your central nervous system.
I use an integrated, holistic approach that supports your hormones, your brain, and your central nervous system to stop feeling chaos and brain fog so you can start sleeping deeply, feel mood stability , feel energetic, and improve your overall health metrics.
-
STEP THREE: RECONNECT
The days of just surviving are a thing of the past!
Discover how to deal with stress, anxiety, and hard emotions while staying on track!
Reconnect your mind and body to thrive and to love life again by staying present, rather than holding yourself to impossibly high standards, becoming your own harshest critic, working to achieve more, and sabotaging your progress.
Why you’re exhausted
If you’re like most high-achieving individuals, you might think that you can manage stressful, daily triggers. But thinking you can willpower your way out of chronic stress and stress eating keeps you stuck in the Doom Cycle, craving food and feeling exhausted and out of control. You probably don’t feel like yourself anymore.
Getting to the Root of the Problem…
Get to the Root of the Problem…
Most people have struggled with chronic stress for decades, trying countless self-improvement plans to treat and manage the symptoms: more willpower, more accountability, a new diet to eat better, a supplement to improve sleep, or an exercise or meditation program to stay calm.
But taking more actions requires extra time and that only treats the symptoms but not the cause of chronic stress. What’s more, these intervention plans use the same '“cookie cutter” plan and assume that your brain and body work the same as everyone else.
It’s not true! You are biologically and psychologically unique! Your central nervous system and brain just need more support!
Your lifestyle, hormones, neurology, development, genetics, and nutritional strengths and deficits require a more than the traditional methods that ignore one key factor: the brain and the subconscious reasons that drive chronic stress.
Your chronic stress is based on your neurology and your central nervous system’s response to life and existing belief systems. By discovering the secret patterns that trigger and sabotage your neurology, we create a unique plan that supports your unique psychobiological needs.

FAQs

Many of my clients have worked with many professionals to reduce stress and accompanying symptoms. To make permanent changes, you’ll need new tools. What I do differently than others:
I use a compassionate-inquiry approach that allows my clients to feel in control of the pace and direction of their healing rather than a cookie-cutter program or talk therapy that is led by the coach..
Together we use curiosity to discover and explore the thoughts, feelings, and actions that interfere with deep growth and self-connection.
I have a depth of experience and knowledge in nutrition, brain health, hormones, trauma, and fitness. I’ve learned not only through education but also by finding what works in my own life. This allows me to guide my client according to their needs by applying concepts in a practical method rather than a utopian concept that doesn’t work in reality.
