I’m Jen.

I grew up as a first generation American. I’m a daughter of two Cuban immigrants. I grew up in a household that showed love through food. And started putting on some weight early in my teens.

The second helpings were common at my home… But they came with a side of shame and guilt.

​

In my teens, I found it hard to diet and restrict all the love my parents showed me. If I knew better, I wouldn’t have restricted foods…

But we’ll get to that.

​

My big a-ha moment happened four years ago. I joined a community of athletes. I started studying about nutrition. And until that point…

I realized that health and achieving your body goals is not about an “all or nothing” mindset…

Where you feel defeated after one gram of sugar. Rather, it’s about simple, sustainable changes. Improving yourself by one percent every day… And fitting foods you love into your weekly routine.

(Yes, I say routine. I don’t like the word “diet”.)

With that said…

​

Here’s one thing you ought to know: There's this common cycle all dieters experience: You try the diet. You see initial results after restriction and discipline. You lose the results after a short while. This is not your fault.

​

It happens because diets don't fit into life. There's no variety or fun in them. Instead, a better path is to know how food works. When you understand food... You can create conscious choices. You can listen to your body and give it what it needs.

No restrictions or suffering.

As a teen, I had a tough relationship with food. I went through bouts of anorexia and bulimia. Restricted calories and had eating disorders. Was under-eating and over-exercising. My self-image and self-talk were destructive. And most of my actions came from trying to “not hate my body”. I spent my youth like this…

 

Until, in 2018, I started a healing journey. My first step was a 10-month certification. In this step, I learned about nutrition, health, and mindset.

With this new knowledge, I realized many of the things I did were not only harmful…

But don’t help you lose weight either (my goal at the time). This first step in my journey made me take other steps:

​

I learned about Breathwork. I studied nutrition, meditation, and self-improvement. And now, I want people like you on their own journey. With that said, let’s start with an insight. One I wish I knew when I was younger: Healthy, sustainable nutrition is simple!

 

Diets are not simple. They tell you you gotta do this, then do that. You need a supplement stack, a fixed bedtime, a daily workout routine…

​

You need to restrict foods you love, workout till exhaustion, and hate the process…

In order to attain the results you want.

 

It's crazy, complicated, and ineffective! Instead, you can sustain your health by making it simple. Focus on changing one habit at a time. If you do…

You're more likely to accomplish your goals.
