Naturally Sweet Nutrition

My Name… if you haven’t caught it already, my last name is Sweet! 

My Food Philosophy… Natural, Alive and Good Quality. I’ve always eaten well, but I certainly indulged in the traditional “junk food” options more often than I should have. Now I consume a primarily whole foods diet and make sure to eat as few processed foods as realistically possible. Swapping out refined sugar and using whole food ingredients and natural sugars like maple syrup, stevia, coconut and dates has made satisfying my sweet tooth much easier. You can still have your cake, and eat it too! 

My Personality… I am not the type of person who craves to be heard but when I do speak, you can be certain that I’ve thought about what I need to say before I share so you are getting a thoughtful response. As a mental health counsellor, I can’t tell you how many people have told me they felt heard for the first time after trying for years to tell their story and get help. I truly value the skill of active listening so I can promise you that I will never get caught up in planning a response and not being present while you are trusting me with your goals, experiences and health concerns. Kind, caring, genuine and sweet are words used to describe me by those closest. I take pride in those adjectives.
