I don’t put too much emphasis on numbers, likes and whatnot but Facebook is telling me I have reached 300 followers… so I guess that’s something to celebrate! Thank you for your continued support. And if you enjoy the support you’re getting from me with food and body, please consider sharing my page with friends that might also enjoy🙏🤗🎉

My approach to BODY CONFIDENCE
Inside of all of us is a Queen who never apologizes for her body, ever. She know her worth, value and beauty has zero to do with looks or size.

50+? Time to activate the Queen.
40+? Queen in Training.
Younger? Typically a Princess seeking validation from outside (but never too late to start finding that Inner Queen!)

My approach to EMOTIONAL EATING
I show you how to embrace and find the brilliance in your emotional eating. I show you how to do it on purpose; with intention and curiosity, (you’re doing it anyways, right?) so you can figure out what you’re truly hungry for.

Want to work together? Just send me a message about 1:1 coaching.

As a Mind-Body Eating Coach:
I don’t do meal plans and recipes
Or shakes and bars
.
I don’t do exercise plans
Or use physical activity as a way to cancel out overeating, lose weight or control body size
.
I don’t weigh chicken or measure out salad dressing
And I’ll never tell you how many grams of carbs to eat
.
I don’t do cheat days
And I’ll never tell you to not keep chocolate in the house
.
I don’t vilify emotional eating or binge eating
Or see it as a sign of failure or lack of willpower
.
I don’t pathologize your extra weight
Or see it as a sign you’re unhealthy, a failure, or lazy
.
I’ll never tell you to weigh daily or weekly
In fact, we may just ditch the scale completely
.
I don’t consider post eat guilt or self-criticism a motivating tool for success
And I’ll don’t believe that “some” shame can be healthy
.
So if I don’t do 👆 - What do I do, as a Mind-Body Eating Coach?
Well...
I do see weight challenges as a doorway that can lead us anywhere…
-->Into diet, food & nutrition, the medical realm, our past, all kinds of work on self…
-->Into how we do relationships, our experience of love, spirituality, work, sexuality, who we are as human beings, our purpose, and so much more.
-->And it’s my belief that it’s something to be explored only if YOU want to explore it.
.
I do use nutritional principles to help get to the bottom of unwanted symptoms and behaviors (overeating, binge eating, emotional eating, fatigue, digestive issues, aches and pains, mobility, slow metabolism)
-->Like experimenting with macronutrient balance to find the right ratio of protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrate
.
I also use internal body wisdom as a powerful tool that you can leverage to know when to eat, what to eat, and how much
.
I do use slow, relaxed eating to create more pleasurable food experiences, better digestion, assimilation of nutrients, and metabolism
.
I do use circadian rhythm as a tool (eating most of your food when the sun is highest)
.
I do subscribe to the idea that the “dose makes the poison” when it comes which foods to moderate and which to avoid completely
.
I do explore the top food allergies / sensitivities - gluten, dairy, soy, corn, egg it makes sense to do so
.
I do incorporate movement into daily life that brings you joy (even if it feels a little gritty) and helps move stress through and out the body.
.
I do show you how to embrace and find the brilliance in your emotional eating. I show you how to do it with intention and curiosity, (you’re doing it anyways, right?) so you can figure out what you’re truly hungry for.
.
I do teach you how to tap into the inner Queen, who’s unapologetic about her body, and knows her worth, value, beauty, has ZERO to do with looks or size
.
I do use unconditional body love and body (re)connection practices, to help you feel good IN your body and ABOUT your body
.
I do work with language and to RE-language. Words and how we speak to ourselves matter:
“Cheat, willpower, weak, should, shouldn’t…”
.
I do flag toxic nutritional beliefs and the harm that they do - “food, my appetite, fat in food and on my body - are the enemy”, “less food + more exercise = less weight”…
.
I do call out poisonous perfectionism and the underlying belief that we’ll be happy when we have the perfect body and perfect diet
.
I do support my clients from a lens of love, kindness, compassion and curiosity (and if you ask my clients, a little bit of fun / humour too 🤪)
.
What about you? Are you ready for something different?
If so, please reach out.
I offer a free, no pressure, one-on-one chat, to learn about your struggles and goals, and what it could look like to work together.
And if not, that’s ok too 🙂
I also have a free Facebook group Happy Nourished Woman - with Mind-Body Eating Coach Michelle Filliol to help support you on your food and body journey, if you feel called to check that out.

That's all for now. Thanks for reading till the end. 🙂

If you come to me for help with a weight struggle, here’s the lens through which I view it:

I truly don’t know how much anyone ought to weigh.
You can be in a bigger / fat body and that doesn’t mean you have weight to lose.
You may have zero weight to lose, or a little or a lot.

There is zero science to how much anyone should weigh at any particular time.
People invent weight loss numbers that they give a religious and scientific value to that is based upon nothing substantive.

And then we think that something is wrong with us when we can’t lose this amount of weight, and then we get pulled into lifelong dieting.

Perhaps my perspective on weight is a hell no for you. You want someone that firmly believes that weight loss is possible for you and you want a clear plan to achieve it. I totally understand and respect that.

But if my stance has got your curious or maybe even delights you 🤩, here’s what working together would like like:

💫 Every human has a “natural weight” that the body will shift towards and experience sustainably when we are indeed living in accord with what is “natural” for us.

So we’d get to work exploring what is “natural” for you.
Meaning: the foods that best sustain you, a way of living, thinking, self expressing and conducting yourself that has you fulfilling your potential and following your soul’s code, a lifestyle that is health supportive, an inner world that is healthy, relationships that are healthy and growthful, and an attention to the details of the body that has you ongoingly checking in with yourself to see if you are practicing good habits, and limiting the kinds of energies and toxins that would adversely impact you… and so much more.

So what do you think?
Are you ready to explore your weight struggles with me and see where it leads, all while learning to embrace and honour your body just as it is?

P.S. I’m offering free consult calls, to see if we’d be a good fit to work together. Just send me a msg and we can go from there. 🙂

If you are:

✋ Done feeling disappointed in yourself every time you eat
✋ Done feeling like you get no joy at all from your meals (or if you do, you quickly forget about it when the guilt or heartburn kicks in)
✋ Done feeling like crap (after eating or in general)
✋ Done feeling stuck and out of control with food
✋ Done beating yourself up for using food to feel better
✋ Done hating your body, feeling “fat” and moving through the world with your head down
✋ Done with the struggle of getting “back on track”
✋ Done trying to control your body and your eating, just so you can live up to someone else’s impossible bu****it beauty standards

If you are feeling ANY of this 👆, consider working with me! Seriously, I would love to work with you, to help you:

💙 Transform how you eat and relate to food, so you can feel empowered and free
💙 Renew your sense of trust in your body’s innate inner wisdom to know when, what and how much to eat
💙 Feel physically better in your body - more energy, mobility, better digestion
💙 Feel more confident in your skin without having to change a thing about your body
💙 Get pleasure, energy and satisfaction with each meal
💙 Learn how to use food to feel more grounded and connected with yourself
💙 Handle unexpected “detours” with curiosity and self-compassion instead of beating yourself up
💙 Navigate emotional eating with grace, and learn to digest and understand the brilliance behind your emotions
💙 Learn to find the deeper intelligence in your “self-sabotage”

💫 And I never ever take a one-size-fits all approach, I always work with you to find your unique food body formula.

The Queen is poised and secure, she's confident.
Deep down, she knows her beauty. She ENOYS her beauty.
She ENJOYS HER BODY! (And she doesn’t need to be thin to enjoy it!)
Stepping into your Queenhood, is really about becoming a woman who understands, and can see and feel her beauty on the outside, as she walks through the world.
A practical question to ask yourself, “What can I do today to enjoy my body? It’s embodiment, it’s dropping into the body, because we leave it multiple times a day, get caught in our heads, our emotions, the busy. So ask yourself that question, and find ways to do that every day, and it will help you feel better in your body, and feel more like a Queen.

A Queen doesn't need anybody's approval when it comes to her body.
It shows up as asking your partner, do I look good in this?
Or taking a million selfies, before posting online, to get just the right angle to look as slim, cute and young as possible (*um guilty here)
Worrying about our bodies, extra weight, lumps and bumps and wrinkles.
Looking for approval from the world, so we work really hard, obsess, so much focus and thoughts, on how do I get my body to change, how do I get my body to lose weight, how do I stay thin?
So I can stay safe, and free of judgment, and be untouchable, so I can get all the love.
Cause at the end of the day that’s what we’re looking for. We want to feel loved, but a Queen knows how to give that love to herself.
A Queen is an example to other women and everybody wants to be her.
It’s being a woman who demonstrates being in a body that she loves, that she owns, that she recognizes her own Beauty.
That the beauty doesn’t have to be a checklist. Being thin, not having wrinkles…
Being an example, everyone wants to be you
Holy cow, look how she carries herself, look how she owns and loves her body, no matter what.
Not despite the fact there might be extra pounds.
She just loves all of it, without apology.
