SMC Nutrition Coaching may be right for you if you:

  • Are trying to get back in touch with your body’s hunger and fullness cues (and ditch the rules-based diet mentality)

  • Want to learn what to add into your eating pattern to help you feel your best (instead of focusing on what to cut out)

  • Are looking for individualized nutrition support tailored to your preferences and lifestyle (not a one-size-fits-all approach!)

  • Want guidance on how to plan tasty, supportive, and easy meals and snacks that align with your goals (it doesn’t have to be complicated!)
