Thank you for the meal inspo 😍 new fav meal that will be a repeat 🔁 in this home! 🏠

It was overall pretty easy! While the baby napped fhis afternoon I diced and marinated the tofu in soy sauce, ginger dressing, and garlic. I used the mandolin to slice up the cucumber and radish. I also let those marinate in a drop of sesame oil and some rice wine vinegar. When we were ready to eat I put the rice in the instant pot for a quick 12 minute cook, put the tofu in the oven on 400° for about the same time, and while that was going quickly seared some kale on the stove top. I used the leftover marinate from the tofu and heated it up with a spoon full of peanut butter because we didn’t have any peanuts. This made the best dressing! 🤩

It was fairly easy to do, but … yes there were a few dishes not gonna lie. That’s a tomorrow problem and so worth the delicious meal. 😜

This weekend has been full of football and experimenting with home cooked meals. I wish I had a picture to share of my husband’s first brisket he smoked for the family… phone didn’t eat first. 🤭

Tonight we will be experimenting with a new ninja creamy recipe we haven’t tried before… if it turns out well, I’ll be sure to share. 🤩

Majority of the time we are convenience first with cooking, but it was so nice to have to time to experiment with new recipes in the kitchen this weekend. 💙

Meal Support, Back-to-School Tips, & a Special Discount Inside! -

This month’s newsletter is packed with helpful stuff as we start to settle back into routines. I’m breaking down the buzz around GLP-1 medications in a new blog—what they are, what to know, and how they might (or might not) fit into your health journey. I’m also sharing how virtual meal supp...

Virtual meal support today with a client. ✨ During meal/snack support it can be tailored to what they need that day… someone to eat with and talk updates on goals or some need a distraction and we gossip about the new love island episode they watched last night. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Whatever best supports them and their needs that day. Anyone is always welcome to eat in sessions with me, but meal support is there mostly for accountability and support in those who may have eating disorder tendencies around eating times.

👀 Thinking about Ozempic? Already on Wegovy? Or maybe you’re just here for the GLP-1 gossip… 🤫

These meds are everywhere — but they’re not magic wands. ✨

They come with buzz, side effects, and digestion issues that aren't often talked about.

I’m sharing what to watch for, how to protect your gut and metabolism, and how to build nutrition habits that will help you even when you stop the medication.

Get the buzz 🐝, the risks & the REAL nutrition talk here: https://linknutritioncounseling.com/2025/07/14/glp-1-the-buzz-the-risks-the-real-nutrition-talk/

Last week, I had the opportunity to attend the NWA Healthcare Summit—and wow, what an inspiring reminder of the power of Meeting People Where They Are At. 🤝

It can be easy to picture what “ideal health” looks like, but the reality is: access to care and readiness for change are different for everyone. This summit really challenged us as providers to think about how we can make the leap withsomeone, and offer realistic support that fits their world—not just ours.

Whether it’s affordable access to care, food pantries at clinics, mobile health and food services reaching food deserts, resource pages for support, or even just asking someone if they feel safe at home—small steps can make a big difference.

So… how does this apply to a dietitian?
Asking someone to overhaul their entire lifestyle is a HUGE ask. Not everyone has the same starting point. Some examples of things that I consider:
✨ Do they feel motivated to make changes?
✨ Are there barriers like time, money, or food insecurity?
✨ Do they have the support they need at home?
✨ Are they able to perform tasks like grocery shopping or planning meals for the week?
✨ What is a goal they’re ready and willing to work toward, even if my original plan feels out of reach right now?
✨ How can we still work toward the same outcome—but in a way that fits their real life?

Every person is different. And that’s okay. I’m here to meet you where you are—without judgment, without pressure. That’s how sustainable health begins. 💙
