Kitchen Coaching
Become fearless in the kitchen and confident cooking delicious plant-forward meals that fit your life.
Know what to cook without spiraling, improvise meals without a recipe, create rhythms that reduce stress and feel confident feeding yourself well.
Why Focus on Cooking, Not Nutrition?
Research consistently shows that people who cook at home more often tend to have higher diet quality, eat more fruits and vegetables, and rely less on ultra-processed foods. Cooking is linked to greater food literacy and stronger confidence around nutrition choices.
But information alone doesn’t change behavior.
The missing piece usually isn’t knowledge. It’s confidence, structure, and skill.
Home cooking…
Improves dietary quality
Increases self-efficacy around food
Supports long-term behavior change
Chances are, you don’t need another meal plan or more recipes. You need help integrating, building up reliable skills, and creating Food systems that fit into your life.
Kitchen Coaching is personalized support that helps you build plant-based fluency — replacing doubt and hesitation with skill, ease, and ongoing confidence in your kitchen.
I don’t deliver rigid meal plans or one-size-fits-all diet rules. Instead, we refine your instincts, expand your skills, and design practical systems that fit your life…
Build up your culinary intuition and know what to cook with ingredients you have on hand.
Recover quickly when routines fall off track.
Identify personal cooking barriers and create tailored solutions for a reliable food routine.
Feel less intimidated by plant-forward meals.
Find joy in the cooking process and incorporate mindfulness into your food relationship.
Develop sense of flavor and how to balance flavors to improv a plant-forward meal without needing a recipe.
Explore your relationship with food and how that plays a role into the food choices you make.
Trust your ability to feed yourself well and reduce meal-time stress.
Have a repeatable rhythm for nourishing yourself/your family each week.
When it comes to food, there is no one-size-fits-all so a personalized multi-dimensional approach saves time, frustration, and stress.
Whether you have time constraints, skill gaps, an emotional food history, lifestyle or health needs, different cooking personalities require different support.
That’s why we begin by identifying your starting point what I often think of as your “kitchen personality.” This work is informed by my broader Eating Archetypes framework, but applied practically to your cooking life.
We assess your specific barriers so we can zero in on where we’ll make the most meaningful impact.
A Multi-Dimensional Approach
My background bridges nutrition science, plant-based culinary training, yoga and mindfulness, and food psychology. That integration shapes how I coach.
Our work focuses on three interconnected layers:
Skill Development
You learn how to build flavor, balance plant proteins, and cook with greater intuition. The goal is fluency — not dependence on rigid recipes.
Self-Trust
We address the patterns that interfere with consistency perfectionism, all-or-nothing thinking, hesitation around new ingredients. Confidence grows as competence grows.
This isn’t about becoming someone who loves cooking every single day.
It’s about becoming someone who feels capable even on busy weeknights.
Systems & Structure
We design a repeatable rhythm that fits into how you already live. Grocery flow, modular meal templates, friction removal. Nourishment becomes easier because it’s aligned with your real schedule.
What to expect…
Confidence cooking without recipes.
A repertoire of reliable, plant-forward meals you can rotate and adapt easily.
