The Short-and-Sweet of It...
Join a community of like-minded women who are eager to "translate what their doc said into practical solutions" and embark on their journey to nourishment with positivity and simple nutrition strategies that complement (rather than complicate) their life.
Here are just a few of the reasons our members have joined (and my-oh-my, they've made some awesome transformations)
-
They felt overwhelmed with prep, cooking and planning (who has the time - there MUST be an easier way)
- Now: they build meals *almost* without thinking - and, they all have meals they can prep in 10 minutes or less
- They have a health challenge that requires specific nutrition strategies (ie: reduced sugars, reduced saturated fat, increased fiber, increased iron, increased protein, etc.) --> and, they came here to find SIMPLE ways to make those adjustments to their daily food intake
- Now: they have found foods they love that ALSO support their health (please note - we do not provide medical services/medical advice... however, we can provide guidance on HOW to eat in a certain way or increase/decrease specific nutrients in your diet - provided you have a doctor monitoring your nutrition changes)
-
They faced frequent social commitments or family needs that got in the way of eating “on plan” (they needed help adapting with ease & freedom)
-
Wanted to streamline and simplify their approach to eating
-
And, they were excited to have a team by their side - supporting, motivating and celebrating with them through their journey
Now: Some new friends are made, we laugh, smile, chat and celebrate successes each week - and, that... well that is pretty incredible to watch.
And, we pride ourselves on being a "little bit different" than the norm of calorie-counting and "diet math".
Our Always Nourished Community takes into account 3 KEY foundations of "healthy eating" that most other "nutrition programs" completely ignore.
-
Working WITH Your Lifestyle: We eat three times per day - every. single. day. Food embeds itself into many areas of our life (social, professional, emotional, etc.) - meaning our lifestyle makes a BIG impact on our food choices and habits. In the Always Nourished Community, we consider your lifestyle needs a MAJOR priority when building a sustainable "way-of-eating" (think: budget, time commitment, family needs, job/work schedule, energy levels, dietary restrictions, etc...). After all, if your eating habits are not complementary to your lifestyle needs, they simply won't be sustainable long-term.
-
Reflecting on How YOU Feel: Sure - most people will feel best with a balance of higher fiber carbs, vegetables, healthy fats and proteins. But the exact amount of each? Well - that will differ from person to person. We encourage whole-food consumption & variety paired with tuning into YOUR body to discover what allows you to feel your best (high energy, few cravings, less hunger, and overall sense of wellness).
-
Fostering a Positive Food Relationship: Food is connected to areas of our brain responsible for memory formation and is often associated with strong emotions. In our community, we empower our members to foster a positive relationship with food - stepping away from deprivation, guilt, shame, or blame - and towards a mentality of delicious, supportive, wholesome, and nourishing foods.
How We Approach Nutrition
We use a generalized approach to nutrition as a "guideline" - from there, we help you "translate your doctor's suggestions into practical solutions" by helping you incorporate nutrients that will help you feel AWESOME and support your health.
The "general nutrition" outline that we promote (based on the Canadian Food Guide) looks a little something like this...
-
Higher fiber (whole food) carbohydrate sources (shifting from refined carbs to higher fiber & whole food options. Limiting refined sugars and enjoying natural sweetness from fruits and small amounts of honey or syrup).
-
Variety of protein (enjoy both plant-based and animal-based options throughout the week - including FISH!)
-
Healthy fats (definitely don't want to skip out on these - I love to encourage using fats such as nuts, seeds, olives, olive oils, avocados, etc., to BOOST flavour, and bring satiety to your meals)
-
Lots of veggies (these add COLOUR, fiber, and micronutrients - and they often get thrown on the plate as a "sloppy side dish". I like to teach ways to incorporate veggies into a meal in ways that are DELICIOUS - because trust me, their flavours can be ah-mazing...)
-
Whole food focus (of course, processed foods can still have their place - AND, whole foods tend to be more nutrient-dense. I like to encourage simple ways to consume more whole foods in a balanced manner)
-
Mindful & joyful "soul foods" (a healthy diet includes nourishment for the soul too! In the community, we learn how to tune into our body to determine what would be most supportive in each moment. Sometimes that might mean enjoying mom's freshly made cookies - other times that may mean saying "no thank you" and opting for a fresh piece of fruit and Greek yogurt instead)
-
Keeping your doc in the loop (our community host, Kenzie Osborne, is not a medical professional - and this is not a community for medical purposes. With that said, it's SUPER important to stay in contact with your doctor - or primary care practitioner - when making any changes to your diet so you can confirm the changes are safe and effective for YOUR needs)
Beyond Nutrition
While the primary focus of our community is fostering an uplifting relationship with food & nutrition - we love to promote building a nourishing LIFESTYLE too! We embed strategies for joyful movement, stress relief, sleep protection, financial health, and more. Guest speakers will be welcomed into our community from time-to-time to share their expertise on those other "facets" of a healthy lifestyle.
