Around this time every year, I used to feel anxious.

Not excited for summer.
Anxious.

Anxious about:

* being seen
* pool parties
* photos
* wearing less clothing
* putting on a bathing suit
* people noticing weight I had gained

I know a lot of women are feeling that right now.

And one of the hardest parts is that people assume body insecurity only affects women who “don’t care” about their health.

Meanwhile, many of the women struggling the most are:

* intelligent
* disciplined
* high-achieving
* constantly trying to improve themselves

What finally changed things for me wasn’t punishment, perfection, or obsessing over my body.

It was building:

* muscle
* consistency
* structure
* self-trust
* and a healthier relationship with my body and health overall

You do not need to spend another summer hiding.

If you want support building a stronger, healthier, more confident body in a realistic and sustainable way, my coaching application is open.

No quick fixes. No crash diets. No “30 day transformations”.

Just the actual work of building muscle, eating well, and trusting the process long enough to see it pay off.

If you’re a woman over 30 who’s tired of doing everything right and still feeling stuck, I want you to know: the strategy matters just as much as the effort.

Follow along if this speaks to you. And if you’re ready to stop guessing and start seeing real results, DM me.

Nub and all, I love my little loser more than anything.

But disinformation and misinformation? I don’t like either of those.

And social media is flippin’ RIFE with both.

Here are some red flags - if you see the following claims, you might be looking at dis/misinformation:

⚠️ “Doctors don’t want you to know this...”
⚠️ Extreme before/afters with no context on timeline, diet, lighting, or editing
⚠️ Selling supplements while giving nutrition advice
⚠️ “This one food/habit DESTROYS your metabolism”
⚠️ Demonizing entire food groups with no nuance
⚠️ Anecdote presented as proof (“it worked for me, so it’ll work for you”)
⚠️ No credentials (or fake-sounding ones like “certified wellness guru” or made-to-sound-clinical ones like “functional medicine practitioner”)
⚠️ Promises of rapid results: “Lose 20 lbs in 2 weeks!”
⚠️ Fear-based language: “toxins,” “poison,” “chemical-laden”
⚠️ Discouraging you from consulting doctors/nurses, dietitians, credentialed nutritionists, etc
⚠️ Cookie-cutter plans sold to everyone regardless of individual needs
⚠️ Citing studies but never linking them, or blatantly misrepresenting what they actually say

Real experts refine their message, cite sources, and don’t sell you something in every post.

Be safe out there 🙃

I’ve gotten some new followers. Hello! Thanks!

I was born locked and loaded with some predisposition to being overweight and having autoimmunity. In my 20s and 30s, I spent over a decade working as a software engineer and tech exec unknowingly running my body into the ground. I lived on coffee, takeout, and stress. Unsurprisingly, I put on significant weight (50 lbs in 2 years) and got sick (I had mono as an adult and was treated for lupus).

I know your schedule because I lived it.
-meal planning and grocery runs (in NYC, which makes everything a bit more of a challenge)
-work dinners where you have no control over what’s ordered
-doom scrolling social media trying to find a workout/diet/peptide you haven’t tried

So when I say I get it, I really do.

I work best with women who are:
-unhappy with their relationship with their body and food
-have cycled through periods of working out intensely and being “strict” with food, only to fall off plan
-experiencing burnout personally but love their work
-are truly ready to do something different and experience lasting change

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. Say hi in my DMs 🙂
