Eating Consciously and Changing Our Relationship with Food

​For many of us, it’s not that we don’t know what to eat to be healthy or lose weight, it’s that we’ve been on this quest for so long that we’re not sure if changing our habits and the way we think about our weight and our body is even possible anymore. For so many women in our diet-obsessed culture, the act of eating is mindless and guilt-inducing, True Hunger changes that.

Feel true, free, present, and joyful. Be satiated.  
"After more than 10 years of coaching individually on this topic, Thrive's True Hunger conscious eating program is a compilation of everything that has worked to support hundreds of women transform their relationship with food, eating, and their bodies. This program gets to the heart of nourishment, cravings, and the power to move beyond this challenge for good. It offers a step-by-step guide to transformation."

​I sought coaching with Melissa because I wanted to see if there was someone who could help me change my relationship with food.  I was aware I was going through a cycle of dieting and not-dieting that caused plenty of angst, self-doubt, and self-recrimination for YEARS, but got no results for weight loss, which was my primary goal.  Her coaching offered me a chance to have a more expansive view of what it takes to make me feel good.  My relationship with food feels balanced.  Now, I am so in my body, present enough to not overeat because it doesn't feel good.  Also, I have a lot of mental space now that I didn't have before--mental space that was tied up in the pre-occupation with my obsession with food and weight loss. I've never  had this amount of energy, motivation and focus. This experience has been life changing.  It has fundamentally changed the way I view the world, and I am very grateful that I have been able to do it.

You can finally stop obsessing about what to eat and start living your life!

What clients are saying about working with Melissa:

Melissa is an insightful, present, smart, compassionate and accepting coach. There aren't many people who hold such a deep and wide space for others. I'm delighted to have been on the receiving end of her brilliance.
After each coaching session with Melissa, I felt I was capable of making choices and decisions that were healthy for ME. She helped me take myself out the messy context of my life and my relationships so I could hear my inner voice and identify what I really wanted or needed.
In our time together I gained perspective on how to manage anxiety, which was life changing for me. I've adopted these tools to regain presence and get back in my body and out of my head when things start to get out of control.
