What My Happy and Healthy Clients Are Saying…

Wow! I thought I knew a lot about health and nutrition until I did the healthy-paths program with Laura. It has been so motivating to learn what foods I should limit or avoid and WHY. Through the process I lost a lot of weight and continue to lose by applying what I’ve learned. The weight loss is really just icing on the cake because the best part has been feeling less bloated and having more energy throughout the day. The food our group made and shared was the key to my success. I couldn’t have done it on my own. The recipes for healthy and delicious food have been a game changer for myself and my family, who are also benefiting from the program. I highly recommend the healthy-path program! Laura was so easy and fun to work with.

Laura helped me change my eating habits step by step so that it was not an overwhelming process like it was when I have tried to accomplish this on my own. Laura also helped me understand how these food changes would help heal my body and transform my health. I feel so much better now! I have fewer headaches and my joints no longer ache. I’m more alert. Laura was also very good at listening. She came up with some eating plan tweaks that helped me stay on this new path. I would highly recommend Laura if you need help making lasting positive changes to your health.

I took Laura’s 4-week cooking class this summer. I have attempted to become better at cooking throughout the years, and this was the first time I actually made real progress in the kitchen. Laura is a great coach and teacher and understands how to help people make real changes in their eating habits. She taught me so many tricks that have given me much more confidence in the kitchen. I use what I learned in her class often, and look forward to taking her classes again soon!

I consider myself an intermediate to advanced cook, and I found Laura’s cooking classes beneficial for several reasons. I love the way she designs her healthy recipes into what she calls “Formula Cooking”. There is a freedom to be creative in the kitchen and not bogged down in the “exact” measurements. She makes it fun and creative to cook. I have learned several cooking hacks which have made my meal prep for the week so much easier, and my food tastier. The virtual online class allows for me to be in my kitchen which provides comfort and furthered learning.

Behind that sweet smile and lovely demeanor, Laura packs a powerful punch! I mean, this woman knows her stuff. Working with Laura over the past months has been both an education and an exercise, and it’s completely transformed the way I eat and live each day. I struggle with chronic inflammation and fatigue due to an autoimmune disorder, and, after working and learning from Laura and her program, I have less headaches, less joint aches, and more energy. I’m also a very busy mom and business owner, and Laura was always there with quick tips and shortcuts to help me stay on track and feel empowered. I’m so happy to call Laura my healthy guru and friend.

This was the best money I’ve spent in a long time! I have learned so much from Laura – she is so knowledgeable, and kind to work with. Not only have I learned lots of wonderful and healthy recipes, but I have also picked up on great tips and tricks that have made cooking less intimidating for me. I have learned how delicious healthy eating can be when the food is prepared and flavored in a variety of different ways. I would highly recommend taking her classes. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I’ve signed up for another session with her.

I really enjoyed Laura’s class. We not only learned about many healthy foods but different ways to prepare them! A lot of the foods I had not prepared or eaten before. I have used many of the prep techniques since I took the class and a lot of the recipes we received during the class. Laura is a great teacher!
