Athletic Performance
Let’s get you to your goal
Health Coaching for Athletic Performance
I am certain there is no single path or "diet" that leads to optimal health and sports performance. We all have different nutrition needs, preferences, beliefs, lifestyles, medical histories…I could keep going here. Every meeting is customized to you and what’s going on in your training or recovery journey. Your goals and vision are what guide our work together, and from there we will find the most realistic and sustainable ways to achieve them while still living (and enjoying!) everyday life. That means no calorie or macro counting, no generic meal plans, and absolutely no strict diets. Instead, we will work as a team to elevate your eating and fueling game to suit your life, your training calendar, and your pursuits. Any recommendations will be individualized to you, and if I’m going to be upfront here, will probably include encouraging you to stress less and rest more.
Guts Got Your Goat?
I have experience in specialized nutrition for gut issues. If you have new food sensitivities popping up and are struggling to find anything at an aid station that doesn’t turn you inside-out, I’ve got your back (and belly). I’ve helped endurance athletes keep moving with a few lifestyle adjustments and some careful supplementation.
My Qualifications
In addition to being a board-certified health coach (NBC-HWC), I am also a Registered Dietitian (RD), and I pull from both arenas of expertise to help you meet your goals. I’m also an avid trail runner, an ultra-marathoner, and an all-around fitness enthusiast. When I’m not working, cooking, or hanging with my partner and pets, you’ll usually find me at the gym or on the trails of Kansas City.
Get Started with a Free Consultation
If you think health coaching might be right for you, I offer a free initial consultation. It’s a thirty-minute call or video conference where we can get to know each other a bit, and I can answer any questions you have about whether coaching might work for you.
