Master's in Nutrition & Dietetics, Certified Intuitive Eating counselor & Intuitive Drinking Coach
I began my intuitive eating journey in 2021. Hearing women say they'd tried different diets and failed over and over again, and thinking I had a different solution but really didn't, there came to a point where I said...
"There's gotta be a different way to do this!".
I went into intuitive eating initially for professional reasons, to continue helping women but through a different, anti-diet lens instead.
But my own relationship to food wasn't as wonderful as I'd always believed. And that's partly because many disordered eating behaviours are, not just normalized, but also glamourized, especially if they come off as "health" promoting. Like having nuts and fruit for lunch, keeping track of carb portions, eating half sandwiches from "healthy" places only.
But it didn't end at Intuitive Eating. There was something else.
I couldn't fully relate to women when they would describe their struggles with food. But the language they used, which was charged with with strong emotion and self-loathing, resembled the way I felt about my drinking.
The guilt and regret
The feeling out of control
The loneliness drinking
The constant thoughts of drinking
The "I'm good all day (or week), and bad in the evening (or on the weekend)"
And on and on.
We weren't that different. Similar struggle. Different substance.
And so I began my Intuitive Drinking journey. Intuitive Drinking uses the same principles and foundations as Intuitive Eating, and is grounded in curiosity and self-compassion versus judgement.
Intuitive Eating resonates with my beliefs and is an approach to health that feels WAY more aligned with my values.
