Start Savoring Food & Your Body

Does healthy eating and exercise feel more difficult than it used to in your 20s and 30s?

Feel like you “just can’t get eating under control” or feel like a complete failure when you gain weight overnight thanks to perimenopause? 

It’s not your fault!

​As a dietitian, certified intuitive eating counselor, and certified menopause coaching specialist, I help active, women just like you, work towards behavior based health goals and reclaim healthy relationships with food and exercise through intuitive eating.  

I’ve been there, done that…

The Savor Strategies of Healing

Our culture equates weight gain and “over-weight” with being unhealthy.

However, the scientific literature shows only a correlation between weight and disease, not a causal relationship especially during menopause.

Here’s what you’ll learn in our work together…

  • How to practice gentle nutrition with attunement to your hunger, satisfaction, and fullness cues – in other words, what, when, and how to eat without dieting.
  • Understand why certain foods seem sexier than others – like you’re getting away with something when you eat them – think M&M’s, Tortilla Chips, and Cookies in front of Netflix at 9 PM.
  • What specific foods support your changing body in perimenopause and menopause how to add them to your daily meals and snacks.
  • You’ll put all the pieces together in a continuous practice of honoring hunger, satisfaction, emotional well-being, individual nutrient needs, and fullness (with food and life).

ARE YOU EATING ENOUGH OF THESE FOODS?

Eat this. Don't eat that. Eat more protein. Don't eat too many carbs. With so much nutrition information out there for perimenopause and menopause, it's hard to know what to eat. Let's make food easier!

Redefine Health

Amanda is a beacon of light helping me navigate through the darkness of Diet Culture. She’s helped me see that health has nothing to do with appearances but everything to do with what you’re feeling in your head and IN your body. She’s compassionate, a great listener, and an advocate.

I’m sure I’d be destroying my body and mind on yet another diet if it weren’t for Amanda’s care. Stop listening to the B.S. of Diet Culture and let Amanda guide you to the positive light of Intuitive Eating and self-care.
