Despite doing all the “right” things for so long, eating well and feeling safe in your body still feels so damn hard.

You’re not lazy, lacking discipline, or broken: your relationship with food and your body has been shaped by your life experiences. And until now, you probably never had a safe and constructive space to understand how and learn what to do about it—in ways that actually work for your mind, brain, body, and life.

WELCOME TO

Coherence is an 8-week, virtual group program, beginning August 15th, for people who’ve lived through trauma and grief, developed a chronic health condition, spent years bouncing from one diet or supplement to the next, and want to stop struggling with food.

You’ll learn how your life experiences have shaped the way you eat, and you’ll gain the structure and support you need to finally make eating well feel less overwhelming, more consistent, and aligned with your actual needs.

You’re likely here because you:

As a child, you learned food wasn’t safe or consistent.

Maybe there wasn’t enough. Maybe it was used as control. Maybe meals came with painful silence, tension, or chaos. You learned early that your needs were too much, or they wouldn’t be met. You figured out how to get by on your own, with as little compassion, comfort, and care as possible.

⟶

As an adult, your body became a battleground.

After a trauma, loss, or incredibly stressful and unexpected life transition, your body changed. You started experiencing brain fog, and things that were once so easy started to feel impossible. Over time, you began noticing appetite changes, digestive issues, having trouble sleeping, feeling pain and fatigued, and noticing changes with your mood—and it seemed like no one knew why.

⟶

You did everything “right,” and you’re still here.

You asked for help, but it seemed like no one knew how to actually help you. You spent years bouncing from one diet, meal plan, supplement, and test to the next. You’ve tracked, restricted, eliminated, and reintroduced. You spent so much time, money, and energy reading articles, listening to podcasts, saving social media posts, playing a game of symptom whack-a-mole, and running on the functional and nutritional medicine hamster wheel. No one ever explained what your body has been through.

⟶

Now, you’re just exhausted.

Food and diets have consumed too much your mind for too long. You’re tired of thinking about food and trying to get it “right.” You may have even been diagnosed with an eating disorder, you learned online that the way you eat is considered disordered, or you tried intuitive eating and it didn’t go as you planned. You know that nutrition is important for your heath, but you also know the way you’ve been taught to approach it just doesn’t work for you.

To grow and recover, you need nutritional coherence, not diet compliance

Despite everything you’ve tried, food and nutrition still feels stressful, confusing, and overwhelming because you’ve only been taught how to follow rules—not to recognize your brain and body’s actual nutrition needs, or how to meet them in ways that fit your life, your capacity, your means, and your history.

Most diets, meal plans, supplement protocols, and functional medicine plans don’t account for the ways trauma, early-life adversity, grief, burnout, and neurodivergence influence your appetite, emotions, decision-making, and nutritional behavior. They ignore the nervous system, your story, and they don’t consider how your life experiences have shaped your relationship with food and your body.

This is not about fixing yourself; it’s about feeding yourself with clarity, care, and coherence.

You need support that helps you make sense of how your past has shaped your relationship with food — and what you can do about it now.

In Coherence, we’ll explore how trauma, stress, grief, and living in survival mode have influenced your eating patterns, habits, and routines. You’ll reconnect with your body’s cues, practice realistic strategies that fit your real life, and begin to shift from confusion and shame to clarity and trust.

Here’s what that actually looks like:

Reflect

Explore the stories, beliefs, and memories that shaped how you eat through writing, gentle inquiry, and shared reflection.

Notice

Learn how your appetite, cravings, and shutdowns are connected to your nervous system, energy levels, and stress patterns.

Cultivate

Create a food environment that supports your current capacity — not an ideal version of you, but who you actually are right now.

Re-connect

Begin to interpret your body’s hunger, fullness, and stress signals with more clarity, confidence, and compassion.

Rebuild

Understand why food has felt so hard, and start healing your relationship with your body and food in ways that feel within reach.

Shift

Move away from shame and self-blame. Practice seeing your eating patterns through a lens of curiosity, not criticism.

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN

This is about learning how to feed a body that’s been through a lot — in a way that is safe, steady, and sustainable.

Here’s what that might look like in your daily life:

A clearer sense of what your brain and body actually needs

So you’re not second-guessing every craving, symptom, or change in appetite.

A way of eating based on trust, not control

Stop obsessing, restricting, and micromanaging every food choice and bite.

Recognizing and honoring your hunger and fullness

Even if they have been shut down, confusing, or unreliable.

Planning your meals and eating without doubt

You’ll develop supportive routines that don’t rely on perfection or willpower.

Less shame and guilt around food and your body

Learn how to meet yourself with compassion—not criticism and blame.

More confidence navigating symptom flares and shutdowns

You’ll know what to eat, how to respond, and how to meet your nutritional needs.

Flexibility to adjust in hard seasons of your life

You’ll know how to stay nourished—even when life gets messy and it feels like a lot.

Understanding why food has felt so hard for you

And the tools to finally change your relationship with food—for good.

HOW IT WORKS

A supportive experience that holds and respects the reality of your story, your body, and your capacity.

Understand Your Story

We begin by exploring how your early life shaped your relationship with food. You’ll begin to identify themes and variables within your food environment, uncover how trauma and stress impacted your appetite and food cues, and make sense of how your past life experiences—those that are both painful yet protective—live in your present life, in the here and now.

We do this for clarity and context, not judgment and criticism.

Cultivate New Conditions

Next, we explore new ways of navigating food, nutrition, and eating that are within your means and capacity. You’ll identify accessible nutrition strategies, practices, and approaches that allow you to eat well and meet your nutritional needs when you have limited mental capacity, energy, and time.

You’ll discover that eating well doesn’t have to feel so hard.

Practice With Support and Trust

Throughout the 8 weeks, you’ll apply what you’re learning — with guidance, community, and care. We meet weekly for live, optional group calls, and you’ll have access to a community of people walking through similar questions about food, healing, and nourishment.

Even though you probably could do this alone, you don’t have to.

WHAT WE’LL COVER

  • We’ll ease-in together by gently mapping your relationship with food, gauging your current capacity, and what’s brought you here.

  • We explore how early life experiences, trauma, and stress have shaped your appetite, food cues, and eating patterns.

  • You’ll reflect on key food memories, messages, and moments that shaped how you relate to your health, your body, and food, and how these moments influenced your nutrition behavior. We’ll also explore how early-life nutrition and food experiences influence our health status later in life.

  • We connect the dots between your food story and your current beliefs, thoughts, and habits surrounding food — with compassion and context, not criticism and judgement.

  • You’ll begin identifying and practicing new ways of feeding yourself that match your mind, brain, and body’s needs—not someone else’s rules.

  • We explore how to reduce overwhelm around planning, prepping, and eating in your real life — not an ideal one.

  • You’ll learn how to make your nutrition more flexible, forgiving, and sustainable — especially during hard seasons.

  • We reflect, integrate, and prepare you to continue feeling supported, steady, and resourced beyond the program.

Together, we’ll gently explore the connections and relationships between:

  • Emotional eating

  • Food environment

  • Food cues

  • Food-cue reactivity

  • Attachment style

  • Bodily trust

  • Self-compassion

  • Self-curiosity

  • Sense of safety

  • Window of tolerance

  • Mind-brain-body connection

  • Emotions and appetite

  • Sensory experiences

  • Conditioned responses

WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE

Coherence is designed to support you emotionally, intellectually, and practically as you reconnect with your true nutritional needs.

8 Optional Live Sessions

We meet weekly for 8 live group calls. You’re never required to turn your camera on or speak. Each session includes reflections, Q&A, and a grounding, interactive lesson to support your week’s theme.

Personalized Digital Journal

Your private digital journal includes weekly prompts aligned with each theme, helping you explore your food story, build self-trust, and reconnect with your body — at your own pace, with no pressure to share.

Affirming Tools & Resources

You’ll receive access to a curated library of recipes, shopping guides, food strategies, and self-guided experiments designed for those recovering from chronic dieting, food fear, and decision fatigue.

Private Group Portal

You’ll access everything through a clean, modern platform that is available from any device. It’s distraction-free and easy to navigate, so you can focus on what matters most.

Community Support

You’ll be invited into a supportive space where you can ask questions, share challenges, celebrate shifts, and connect with others moving through similar experiences. Participation is always optional.

Lifetime Access

You’ll have lifetime access to all materials: recordings, journal entries, tools, and resources. Return anytime you need a reminder, a reset, or continued support.

  • You’re not alone.

    Most people who come to Coherence feel this way.

    They’ve tried functional medicine, nutrition coaching, logging calories, supplements, elimination diets, and tracking apps.

    This program is different because it doesn’t pathologize you or treat your body like a machine that is in need of repair.

    We work relationally, slowly, gently, and in understanding of the full context of your trauma history, neurobiology, food environment, and lived experience.

    Coherence is not not a quick fix, “trauma blowout,” diet program — it’s a therapeutic space for creating safety and capacity for sustainable nourishment.

  • That’s okay.

    The pace of our work together is intended to shift based on your capacity, energy, and life demands.

    Rest, freeze, and overwhelm are part of the process—not signs of failure.

    You don’t need to be at your best to benefit from this work; you just need to be able to show up as you are, right here, and right now.

    You can adjust the pace based on your bandwidth.

  • Yes.

    Coherence will not prescribe weight loss or use weight as a proxy for health.

    We will talk about weight, body image, weight-related fears, and health goals honestly, but you will never be shamed, disciplined, or pressured to change the size and shape of your body.

    This space is about nourishment, not control.

  • While you don’t need a specific diagnosis to benefit from Coherence, most of the people in the group will likely have been diagnosed with some combination of the following: ADHD, PTSD, depression, anxiety, autism, OCD, and/or a chronic autoimmune, neurological, digestive, or cardiometabolic condition.

    It is important to me that you have the care that you need.

    Since this program is not a substitute for medical care and does not involve the diagnosis of any illness or condition, it is highly recommend that you have an established relationship with a licensed medical provider.

  • No.

    Instead, we’ll co-create food strategies that reflect your needs, preferences, means, capacity, and environment.

    You’ll receive practical ideas, structured options, and personalized suggestions, but never a rigid template or one-size-fits-all diet.

  • It depends on if you need them.

    There are no required supplements in this program.

    If it makes sense to explore them, I’ll offer guidance that’s gentle, evidence-informed, and tailored to your needs — but there is zero pressure to purchase anything.

    In fact, many of those who join Coherence will likely find they’re able to let go of expensive supplement routines that weren’t helping.

  • We meet every week for a 50-minute group session.

    Between sessions, you’ll receive reflection prompts, journaling exercises, and recommended resources.

    You’re not expected to complete a checklist, but you are invited to reflect, notice, and engage with what comes up between sessions — because that’s where most of the integration happens.

    Some weeks, this might mean 30 minutes of journaling.

    Other weeks, it might mean simply paying attention to how you feel after eating, or sitting with a realization that surfaced.

    This program creates space — maybe for the first time — to actually think about your relationship with food, your past, and your body.

    The time you spend will vary based on your energy, your capacity, and what you’re ready to hold.

    There’s no right amount of time to spend; just the time it takes to meet yourself.

  • It’s expected that many of the people in the program will have a variety of sensory challenges with food, aversions, “limited palate,” and allergies.

    Everything we do will be considerate of these cirucmstances.

  • The first live group session will begin on July 15, 2025.
