Whether you love making simple meals fast or are ready to venture into something new, I'll have you acing your meal making simply by learning how to organize yourself, layer and meld flavors and utilize chef hacks and shortcuts. 



 
An international speaker, educated and trained in self-development, lifestyle wellness and whole-food natural nutrition, 
Teri addresses all aspects of health care and disease prevention with self-care. Her focal areas include health promotion, disease prevention, self-worthiness as well as pain and stress management via conscious mind-setting, everyday movement, whole-food nourishment, connection and purpose.

Everything we do affects every corner of our life. We need to take care of all aspects of ourselves and the way we eat impacts our ability to do this in profound ways. Let me explain why, inspire you to make great tasting meals and enable your kitchen talents so your can nurture and nourish your optimal well-being in every way.

From Teri - inside her life:
You will often find me researching the latest in health promotion, listening to favorite mentors podcasts, playing in the great outdoors, teaching a class, working out, shopping for fresh food and creating a new recipe or meal, hosting friends, shaking up a fabulous cocktail or clinking glasses with a glass of full-bodied wine, playing or relaxing in nature, by the water or a fireplace and yes, playing with Lua or indulging him with brushing and belly rubs or watching a show or movie while folding clothes, editing pictures or recipes or cleaning up my files. Usually I have food or drink on hand, in hand or just enjoyed.
