Meet Kella

The first time I remember noticing that my body was “different” was in kindergarten. I was in dance class when I looked around and thought, “The other girls’ butts are so small. How do they not fall into the toilet?”

 

I was five years old.

 

And somehow, that little thought became part of a much bigger story—one where I learned to scrutinize my body, attach morality to food, and believe that being “healthy” meant constantly trying to change myself.

 

I’ve come a long way since then. And the more I learn, the more my heart hurts for the women who are still carrying those same messages from childhood and adolescence. So many of us were taught to dislike our bodies before we were even old enough to understand why.

 

That’s why I do what I do.

 

I’m a Nutritionist with a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition, a Wellness Coach, and a Body Image Coach. I’m passionate about helping women step away from the constant self-hate, guilt, shame, and food rules—and create a relationship with food, movement, wellness, and their bodies that actually feels freeing.

 

Along side my work, I’m also a wife and mom of two. I know firsthand that life is messy, busy, beautiful, exhausting, and full of seasons where taking care of yourself can feel complicated.
