About Jill
Hey there! Meet Jill.
First and foremost, she’s a boy mom who married her 2nd grade crush, she’s a middle sister, beach lover, farmers market regular, novice gardener, kitchen dancer, terrible singer and enthusiast for flavorful meals and fresh fruit in season.
Ripe organic bartlett pears are the absolute best. No debate.
And also…Jill wants every woman to know the good news that it IS possible to experience true freedom from weighing, dieting, obsessing, counting, and living in a body with pent-up blame, guilt, shame, overwhelm, stress and victimhood.
At age 20, she found herself completely malnourished, profoundly depressed, and fighting the most intense eating disorder. With an open and willing heart in pursuit of healing, Jill discovered the power of non-conventional therapies and the power of honest prayer that deeply changed and healed her from the inside-out, discovering lasting freedom with food and body.
No more counting, obsessing, dieting, restricting or weighing.
From this experience, she discovered her life’s passion to help women create lasting mindful transformation with food and body and mind and heart.
And not only that but to discover what it means to live a truly nourished lifestyle.
Not just with food, but all parts of you.
Mind. Body. Heart. Relationships. Habits. Daily rhythms. Finances. Personal care.
To be guided by what you value and what’s truly most important to you.
It isn’t a quick fix.
But it doesn’t have to be.
She holds space for the deep work to be done and sits alongside you, exactly where you are, with curiosity, kindness, love, grace, and undivided attention.
She studied Exercise Science and Psychology at Hope College. After graduating, she worked as a Wellness Education Coordinator at one of the top corporate wellness departments in the country for five years before returning to school to study at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York City where she is a Certified Holistic Health Coach.
