Missing the chocolate cherry chia pudding ..

I spend my days nourishing others, but today I’m sharing a look at my own healing journey.
​I’ve been wanting to talk about how chronic stress eventually manifests as physical disease. It’s a topic I’m passionate about as a holistic nutritionist, especially as I navigate my own path through perimenopause, high cortisol, and Hashimoto’s.
​These aren't just buzzwords; they are physical realities that affect mood, weight, and energy. This bowl is my "medicine": Warm kale, umami-rich anchovy tahini, shiitakes, bacon, and fried eggs, with some freshly grated aged Parmigiano.
​Managing reactive hypoglycemia requires more than just "cutting sugar"—it’s about strategic, nutrient-dense satiety.
​More on the stress-disease connection coming soon. Until then, tell me: how is your body asking for support today? 👇

A reminder about comfort and care.

These photos of food I cooked for Jan B. popped up from four years ago, and they served as a poignant reminder.

Christmas can be an incredibly difficult time for many. Jan had no family, just an incredible dog she loved more than anything. She was a deeply intelligent, kind person with a fantastic sense of humour. She loathed Christmas.

Jan hired me to cook for her after receiving her terminal diagnosis. Her meals became a different kind of nourishment—they were pure comfort and nostalgia, pescatarian meals cooked directly from her own cookbooks.

Sometimes, the greatest service we offer as chefs is simply nourishment for the soul, fueled by memory and love. My work is a constant reminder of what truly matters.

Rest in peace, Jan 💚

What do you get when a pizza and a chicken dish have a baby? A low-carb, high-protein masterpiece!
This crust isn't made from dough; it's made from chicken! Completely unexpected but entirely delicious, this creation is a game-changer for anyone looking to enjoy the flavors of pizza without the carbs.
As a personal holistic chef, I'm always looking for ways to create unique and healthy dishes that don't sacrifice flavor. This one definitely fits the bill!
