Health Coaching

Food Creates Your Future

— Food is Ikigai —

Do you look forward to eating, every single day? Food itself is my ikigai. I look forward to every meal — and those meals are what give me the happiness, and the energy, to do my life’s work.

My health coaching programs bring together food, mindset, and environment — everything I’ve learned over the past fifteen years, since my rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis. My goal is simple: to have you feeling healthier, lighter, and full of energy.

Private Coaching

Ikigai – Food & Health Coaching

A private, one-on-one coaching program to support your overall health and raise your energy. Its main focus is chronic inflammation, because I see eating with it in mind as one of the foundations of good health. You’ll learn, step by step, how to eat based on current nutritional science and natural, holistic approaches — and along the way, the Japanese-inspired way of eating and living that I grew up with.

Who it’s for

• You want to improve your health through food and lifestyle
• You want to lose weight without feeling hungry — or gaining it back
• You want more energy and better performance at work
• You want to take care of your health with a natural, holistic approach to food and lifestyle
• You want a happy life, full of smiles and energy

What’s included

• 6 video lectures (about 5 hours in total)
• 4 private sessions, 1.5 hours each
• Feedback on your daily meals — just send me photos
• Unlimited questions, simple recipes, and past seminar videos
• Choose 1, 3, or 6 months — and on rare occasions, the program can be extended. The longest I’ve worked with a client is nine months.

What you’ll learn

• The basics of a healthy, everyday diet — simple, sustainable habits you can keep for life
• Foods that cause inflammation, and foods that support your immune system
• Gut immunity, and how to deal with inflammation and imbalances
• Environment, heavy metals, and mental care
