Nutrition, a little differently.

 
Kia ora, I’m Chantal (Tainui, Kūki ʻĀirani, Dutch).

Welcome to my no-BS but gentle approach to health and nutrition for all bodies seeking reproductive or fertility health. I work with folks who may be seeking optimal hormone health with or without the goal of a baby. 

My approach to health is one that supports that you are the expert in your body, and your lived experience matters. I work outside the diet norm, where my focus is on how we include a range of foods in your life, what enjoyable movement will contribute to your goals and how do we best optimise your current routine to get the most out of it driven by your desires, not my opinion. If you’ve worked with a nutritionist in the past you are likely to find me quite different, where the focus is what we can add, not what we should remove.

I’m a fierce advocate for nourishing the body you have today while learning how to optimise your food intake for your specific goals, maintain a healthy relationship with mealtimes, and without restriction of your favourite foods. I have a keen interest in and experience with all reproductive nutrition needs for folks from preconception through to infant solids with a non-diet lens and a common-sense approach. This space is queer-friendly, pro-trans, and political, nau mai, haere mai!
