Some Background

About Lisa

 

 Hey! I am glad you made it here! I am a "fine dining foodie" trapped in a nutritionally-minded body.

 

 My cooking background includes 20 years of experience in fine dining and catering food operations as a certified chef. I have previously owned and operated a multi-location catering/cafe business and taught many outstanding students in college culinary programs. In addition, I am a certified personal trainer and have competed in regional and provincial fitness competitions. I am a self-professed, non-denominational fitness devotee. Do what moves you to sweat. Then repeat.

 

During my time as a chef, I realized that there is a severe need for "real food." Nutrition that is accessible for everyone to become the best version of themselves.

Discovering that I am Celiac, lactose, and lectin intolerant, I struggled to find food on the go that was both healthy and allergy-free.

 

This business was born out of the need to help other working families (just like mine) that want to eat healthy whole food while managing their fast-paced weeks. We must face the fact that we cannot always be full-time working professionals/students, full-time cooks, full-time moms/dads/guardians and maintain a sense of balance.

 

In addition, I believe practical nutritional education is a huge factor in assisting families in eating healthy every day and not in "diet mode."  In addition to education at The Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, I am a lifelong learner. I have a BSW degree- Bachelor of Social Work from Trent University, and I am completing my Master of Social Work with The University of Toronto.

 

Our minds are powerful tools, and when we are able to unlock that power, we can achieve our nutrition goals.
