Positive, proactive support to live your best life

September 12, 2021

I met Janelle through hiking and thanks to her guidance gained more respect and appreciation for what my body can do (a lot more than I had been doing in terms of hiking the desert and mountains!). Recently I returned to her for a package of eight remote sessions about nutrition. It’s not that I’m ignorant about food — it’s just that she’s really good at food! She is all about honoring the body with the fuel it needs and deserves. She helps me focus on what my body needs to function well, how to approach a day or week of meals in a joyful way, and even encourages me to try foods, recipes, and cooking techniques I haven’t explored in the past. And, on top of all that, she’s a genuinely wonderful person.

Janelle was absolutely amazing! She made sure to cater the hike to our skill level and was extremely knowledgeable of the trails, wildlife, and vegetation. I will be booking again when I return to Arizona. If I could give anything greater than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat!
