How cool is it that an Alpena kid is debuting in the NHL tonight?🏒Annddddd as the tallest goalie in NHL HISTORY?!? My good friend Wynne Tezak is his AUNT! Wynne is an amazing physical therapist, and my office is inside of Willow Tree Physical Therapy- her office! She’s a super proud and excited Aunt! 😍The amount of hard work, discipline, and sacrifice it took him to get to the NHL is amazing! 🤩 I bet his nutrition has to be spot on too! 🤩🙌 Go Cooper, the entire city is cheering for you!

There is SO many trends/diets/pills/shots, and MISinformation on the internet about HEALTH! 🤪MOST of the time, they are trying to sell you some fad, and/or are trying to support "skinny culture"....🙄. Well guess what......Skinny does NOT always equal healthy. Just like overweight does NOT always mean unhealthy! 👎Health is actually simpler than we want to think....even in perimenopause. There ARE answers! 😍I am here to meet with you in person OR on zoom to help you figure out how YOU can feel YOUR best and clear up the MISinformation. I can also help support those on a GLP-1 to ensure you are not endangering your health, and fueling your body well. I LOVE FOOD and love helping people. Book online anytime, or send me a message:) www.freshfocusnutritionandwellness.com

I am working on another certification as a Health Coach. This is different from being a Certified Nutritionist, in that it focuses more on helping people with change, 🤝while helping with nutrition too. I am always learning, always watching food trends, diet trends, and learning many ways to help people of every age, shape, size, socioeconomic condition feel THEIR best! I read this today and loved it. It sums up Client-Centered Coaching, which is 100% how I roll!
"There is only one person who has experienced the client’s life fully, and that is the client.According to this premise, the client is then the expert on the experience of their lives. For
Rogers, this meant considering the client’s own thoughts, wishes, and beliefs as the mostvital factor in the process of behavior change. While this approach may be a significant shift from other coaching techniques, it is based on the idea that there should not be a hierarchical relationship between the coach and the client. Rather, the relationship should be equal where the coach acts to support the client in their process of self-actualization."

👏🏼GREAT ARTICLE! 👏🏼
As a nutritionist, I would say all of this. Exactly this! Eat the damn candy 🍭(in moderation as a treat) 🎃and move on! No shame, no guilt, no diet culture bull!

Ding-Dong! It’s that time of year when you start to see toxic diet culture rolling out their memes touting “How many squats = a Butterfinger”, “This many sit-ups will remove a Snickers from your belly” and articles promoting “The Best Exercises to Work off that Halloween Candy”. Insert...

Meijer fruit on sale!
Prices are through 10/6/26! Great fruit sales at Meijer! 🍓🫐 Stock your freezer while the prices are low! Wash the fruit, let it dry on paper towels, and freeze it in smaller portions for smoothies, yogurt topping, and more! 🤩I’m heading home to make a fruit tray to take in the 🚘 for travel softball 🥎 , as well as one for the players. Fruit is natures fast food, no cooking required! 😄 Remember to wash 💦 it all first! Unwashed fruits and veggies are the number one ☝️ cause of food poisoning in the USA! Eating fruit throughout the day is a great way to curb sugar cravings!
