Hello & Welcome

I’m Melissa — the Fiber Queen! 🌱

I’m a Certified Plant-Based Nutrition Specialist through the American Fitness Professionals & Associates, with additional training from Rouxbe Culinary School and the Stanford Center for Health Education. I’m also a Health Coach, Personal Trainer, triathlete, recipe developer, and mom of four (ages 10–17).

I’ve been eating mostly plant-based since 2001—long before “flexitarian” became a buzzword! My approach is simple: more plants, more fiber, less refined sugar, and realistic habits that fit real life.

As a busy mom myself, I understand how easy it is to put everyone else first. I’m passionate about helping busy women—especially those navigating midlife and perimenopause—feel empowered to take care of their health without guilt, restrictive diets, or perfection.

I also love helping families make plant-forward eating simple, delicious, and practical through quick, nourishing, family-friendly recipes.

My goal is to give you the knowledge, tools, and confidence to make choices that support your health and the life you want—because I know it isn’t always easy, but I also know you can do this. 🌱

Melissa est une femme extraordinaire qui dès notre première rencontre, a su m'inspirer à me mettre en action et faire des changements à ma routine pour mon bien-être. Elle a un bagage de connaissances incroyable et à travers nos discussions elle me guide à trouver ce que je suis prête à mettre en pratique en tenant compte de mon contexte familial. Merci Melissa pour ton écoute et ton grand coeur ♥️

Melissa is a WEALTH of knowledge when it comes to nutrition and mental health. She cares so deeply about the well being of her clients. She has helped me learn how to add more healthy ingredients into my diet without making it feel like I am depriving myself of what I love. She had also coached me how to reverse negative thinking to think more positively about myself and others. I highly recommend her services! You will walk away happier, hopeful and healthier!

Bonjour, je rencontre Melissa par vidéo Messenger depuis l'été 2023. Des objectifs, de l'écoute, des nouveautés dans ma cuisine, du soutien, de la flexibilité de la part de Melissa, son souci d'alléger mon côté perfectionniste, sortir de mes fausses croyances alimentaires, valider là où je doute et plus encore.

Melissa has been such an inspiration for eating cleaner and getting outside for exercise! Her pure enthusiasm for caring for her body is obviously genuine, and helps me see and honor my own potential.
