Hi! I’m Tabitha. I’m originally a small town girl but now call Toronto, ON home.
I’m an aspiring Holistic Nutritionist and Health Coach and I am so pleased you stopped by! I ‘officially’ started this endeavor in January 2017, but like so many others, I went through a wild ride of my own health concerns that opened up my eyes and soul to the nourishment that real, whole food can bring. In 2009, as I was wrapping up my BA, I was met with fatigue and stabbing pains in my lower abdomen that I could not longer ignore. After many visits with many doctors and specialists, I left feeling that I had more questions than answers. I couldn’t understand what left me feeling so awful, and doctors weren’t able to link my pain to any one diagnosis. I struggled with this until a friend suggested I read the book ‘It Starts With Food’ by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig. This book just got me! It taught me to reshape my habits one meal at a time and I slowly healed my pain and gained energy by changing the foods that fueled me. By switching from processed convenience food to real, whole ingredients, I was able to appreciate my day-to-day — working out and feeling empowered through movement instead of ‘punishing’ myself for continual poor food choices.
My journey has opened up a whole other part of me that I never knew could exist — it has opened up my soul to understand that each choice you make in life can empower you! It has proven that society’s approach to food and fitness has always been about ‘fixing’ something, but if we simply focus on feeling empowered through the choices we make in life, including the food we put on our plate, we really can harness the energy to live our best life and be the best versions of ourselves!
I cannot wait to help others navigate this life journey and give them the tools they need to be their best selves!
