WHAT I BELIEVE
​
I believe that each body is unique and different. I do not believe in generic diets or a one size fits all approach.
I believe that being in shape should not be restricted to punishing diets & exercise regimes and a limited vision of what our body should look like
I believe in the benefits of Pleasure and in the existing science that proves it! We should take pleasure in food and in life.
I truly believe that the human body is extraordinarily smart. By learning to listen to it that we can genuinely feel our best, now and in the future.
My Story
In 2014, after many years working in the advertising industry, I went to California to study the art of Plant-based nutrition at Matthew Kenney's prestigious Los Angeles academy. Here I fell in love with organic products and natural ingredients, realizing that when cooked in the right way, they feed not only the body but also the soul. Returning to Portugal, I created "The Green Chef" brand. with which I consult, hold workshops, lectures and have been a guest chef at various restaurants, hotels, and events.
During these years people approached me seeking advice on what to eat and with their own unique food and body challenges. Having faced my own challenges with nutrition, I felt it was time to get a better understanding on how to help myself and others. Now certified as a Mind Body Eating Coach from the Institute for the Psychology of Eating I am helping people to feel empowered in their body and confident in their food choices.
