Now, I teach my clients HOW to feel in control of food WHILE ditching the mental beatdowns that are keeping them from having the relationship with food and the body they want and deserve. .

During my struggle, if I wasn’t on extreme diets, forcing myself to run 6 miles on the gym treadmill at 5am before work or popping diet pills like tic tacs, I was binging on all the foods I wasn’t allowing myself to have.
You could find me zoning out watching Netflix (preferably Sex & The City) or on Facebook scrolling through the lives of others actually living theirs, while I was knee deep in Ben & Jerry and oreos, promising myself “THIS would be the last time and tomorrow I would NEVER do this again.”
I felt such shame and embarrassment about this secret life I lived.
Nobody knew I was binging. Nobody knew the binging escalated to purging.
My bubbly and outgoing personality was like a shield to this secret life.
But the oreos I was binging on weren’t the only things crumbling. I was crumbling on the inside.
The more I binged, the harder I dieted. The harder I dieted, the more I binged.
The more weight I gained. The more miserable I felt in my body. The more my diet brain screamed louder.
I was TRULY ready to stop.
I hated that I couldn’t stop secretly eating my binge food in my bedroom while my family was sleeping or while my roommates were out of town. I hated that I would even steal my roommates food and devour cereal boxes and feel the need to replace them at 1am by going to the 24 hour convenience store.
I had tried in the past to stop. Conventional methods. Nutritionists, therapy, hypnosis. The usual.
BUT even then, the pain of stopping didn’t overpower the pleasure I was still getting from each binge.
The habit got stronger and I felt weaker.
It was this one decision I made that changed the trajectory for me …
I invested in coaching.
It changed the game for me.
And now it’s my calling to change the game for you.
It’s fucking awesome, exciting and incredible to take your control back over food.
To feel empowered around food rather than powerless.
To come up against food urges and not freak out and handle them.
To accept and embrace imperfection and allow those moments toward growth.
To feel amazing in your body and have a relationship with food that’s on your terms.
The way I feel, I need to share it with those who are ready to feel it, too.
Some extras for inquiring minds:
I graduated from the College of the Holy Cross with a BA in sociology (which 100% has directly impacted my coaching) and received my coaching certification from the Institute of the Psychology of Eating. My fascination with brain science kept me going where I also became certified in NLP to help influence and rewire the brain for new results.
My Favorite Things:
My family is my world. My parents, sister (cue Saweetie Best Friend song) and I are my day one crew. My man slice (married since 2015!) makes me laugh even when I’m PMS’ing and want nothing to do with him. We have two incredible boys together, Dean and Domenic, who have given me the greatest honor of being called “Mama”. I love snuggles with my boys, anything I do with my husband next to me, peanut butter and chocolate combos, online shopping, personal development, running outside in the summer, my Peloton and bedtime at 9pm.
