“A healthy body was something I’d always thought was out of reach, but I made it happen and it changed my life. Now, I’m on a mission to help change and improve the lives of others!”
Hi, I’m Catriona,
For far too long, you’ve been stuck in a world where no matter how much you attempt to eat better, it just doesn’t happen. You dream of feeling energised and rejuvenated after meals, instead, you feel:
- Drained and heavy, it’s almost as if your meals have zapped all the energy out of you rather than waking you up.
- Unable to get the satisfaction and fullness you expect from meals! You’re always hungry afterward.
- Guilty because you can’t ever seem to stick with the “diets” that you’ve tried in the past.
- Discouraged because you’ve failed at trying to fix your nutrition over and over again.
You’re not the only one who’s been here, I’ve met hundreds of people just like you who want to start eating plant-based, but it just feels impossible and out of reach. I know this because I’ve been EXACTLY where you are right now.
Let me tell you a story
Even when I was younger, I knew my eating habits needed work. I was so used to living life on the fast track, eating quick snacks between heading to school and in between extracurricular activities.
I noticed the effects during classes, I couldn’t stay awake or concentrate on the subject at hand.
This only got worse as I pawned off any desire to try to fix the issue at hand.
Hitting rock bottom...
Years later, in my pain, I turned toward food-especially lollies, ice cream, and cookies, and in my exhaustion, I relied on sodas and energy drinks to keep going.
I found myself HATING my body. Even worse, I felt exhausted, sick, and moody all the time. I never had any energy, my body hurt, my digestion was a mess, and I lived with a never-ending headache.
It was when I realised that all the symptoms I faced every day were keeping me from being the person I dreamed of being! I wasn’t emotionally present at all.
The transformation
Finally, I started bridging the gap by taking a much closer look at what I was actually eating. All it took was a little poking around in the subject of nutrition, instead of relying on random blogs and articles to tell me what I was missing. It completely changed the way I looked at calories; for most people, a calorie is a calorie.
Calories are made up of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, sugar, and so on. I found that a higher intake of greens meant I was getting more of the good stuff, Potassium, Calcium, etc. would curb my hunger more effectively than a sports bar, which happens to be high in sugar and fat.
Once I made this realisation, eating plant-based became something I desired. I no longer felt like I was depriving myself of food or enforcing extreme calorie restrictions on my body.
I was just eating real, healthy, clean food.
In a short period of time, I went from feeling like I’d never get my health back on track, to a body that had never been in better shape.
IT'S MY DREAM TO SHARE THE GIFT OF PLANT-BASED EATING WITH YOU!
I struggled with these issues for years, and the entire time I felt so alone. It was like no one really understood me, and I just wanted a little encouragement, some support. That’s the person that I want to be for you.
By enrolling in a Diploma of Vegan Nutrition and a Bachelor of Food and Nutrition I learned about plant-based eating and how it can help anyone achieve a life of happiness, high energy levels, and the opportunity to enjoy many, many more years. As a Certified Nutritionist, I have an immense drive and a wealth of knowledge to share with you and help you achieve your health goals!
In addition to bringing you comprehensive nutritional information and resources based on science and medically proven research, I also have the personal experience to guide you and support you as you work to reach your health goals and reclaim your life
