I get it – life’s busy, and finding the time and energy to focus on your nutrition feels impossible. But what if I told you that it doesn’t have to be this hard? I’ve been where you are, juggling work, family, and trying to stay in shape. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information out there.
