Frequently Asked Questions

  • I no longer offer ongoing 1:1 coaching. I now provide individual consults, either by video or email, for those looking for personalized nutrition support without the commitment of weekly check-ins. This allows for more flexibility while still getting tailored advice based on your goals.

    I also have The Calorie Conversation launching soon, a low-cost membership with access to blogs, recipes, and real-talk nutrition content that breaks down the nonsense you see online. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice, this will be a space for science-backed info that’s practical and easy to understand.

    I’ve worked as a Registered Nurse (RN) for 20 years, with experience in Oncology, Infusion, Obstetrics, and Surgical care. I still work part-time as a chemo infusion nurse. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from George Mason University, along with a minor in Psychology.

  • Yes, I lost nearly 80 pounds by working with a coach and making sustainable changes in my behavior, mindset, and nutrition habits.

    I have extensive experience working with clients who have various medical conditions, including but not limited to thyroid issues, PCOS, diabetes, and heart disease.

    As a Registered Nurse (RN), I understand the complexities of these conditions, but please note that I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions.

    I work alongside your healthcare team to provide nutrition and lifestyle support that complements your medical care, focusing on sustainable, evidence-based strategies to help you reach your goals.

    If you have a medical condition, you may be eligible to pay for my services using your FSA/HSA with a medical necessity letter from your healthcare provider.

  • Yes!

    If you have a medical condition, you may be eligible to use your FSA (Flexible Spending Account) or HSA (Health Savings Account) to pay for my services.

    To qualify, you’ll need a medical necessity letter from your healthcare provider, which I can help you with.

  • Currently, I accept credit card payments and ACH Payments.

    However, if you have an FSA/HSA account, you may be able to use it to pay for my services.

    You are responsible for determining your eligibility and obtaining the necessary medical necessity letter from your healthcare provider.

  • Yes, some level of change is necessary to see meaningful, lasting results.

    The truth is, results come from doing things differently, but that doesn’t mean you have to overhaul your entire life overnight.

    My role is to help you identify which changes matter most, and guide you in implementing them in a way that feels realistic and sustainable.

    You don’t need to be perfect, but you do need to be willing to take action.

    Together, we’ll focus on small, manageable shifts that lead to big progress over time.

  • If you’re not seeing results, we don’t give up, we get curious. I’ll work with you to assess what’s going on, identify what’s working and what’s not, and make adjustments to your plan.

    There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition or behavior change, which is why ongoing support and flexibility are built into the process.

    Sometimes that means shifting your nutrition strategy, sometimes it's about dialing in habits like sleep, stress, or movement.

    We’ll troubleshoot together, and I’ll help you stay accountable while we find what works best for your body and your lifestyle.
