ABOUT ME

A Little Bit About Me

Since 2013,  I've had a passion for food and nutrition which led me to pursue a degree in Nutritional Sciences in Dietetics. As I was nearing the time of graduation, I got inspired to obtain my minor in Psychology to better grasp therapeutic and counselling methods to further help and educate others in my future endeavours. 

Flash forward post graduation, I started my own personal blog "Beauty and the Foodie" (Est. 2015) -- Talking about all things beautiful in life and my love of food, which eventually started into a small business. However I wasn't satisfied enough. I wanted to give more to those I was helping, I wanted to create more personal connections beyond just teaching the basic fundamentals on a surface level, I wanted those who I was working with to be confident and knowledgeable to create their own decisions and take back their lives! After a year or so, I became a Health Coach, and with my slogan of "Hey, hey! Coach Lara here!", I've slowly but surely built a clientele base of over 65 clients upon my first two years of work. Seeing my clients become successful, hearing their stories of triumph, and including my personal experiences with them, I decided to push further and revamp my business into what it is today.

 I want to provide a non-judgmental, guilt free and safe place for my clients. I want to be there when you conquer your most inner fears, and by pass all of today's society of "food rules", "food habits", and "diet culture".  Apart from my role of being a Nutritionist, I understand that connecting past and present life experiences are important. Mainly because I've dealt through many of my own as well, when I hit a roadblock in my own life and was struggling to move past it. . Hence my journey to becoming a Certified Lifestyle Coach. The techniques I developed were so successful that friends and family began asking me for help with their own challenges. This motivated me to turn my newfound passion into a full-time career.
