We all have a food story of our own. Be that something our parents have dawned on us or something we have created for ourselves, our food story plays a huge role in how we see ourselves, especially in relation to weight.
But how do we write the best possible story that can be written if we still see weight loss as taboo? How do we go after our goals towards a healthier mind, body, and soul if we don’t really listen to ourselves, or worse, don’t even know our truth?
Elise Museles is a Certified Eating Psychology and Nutrition Expert, creator of the Food Story platform, and the wildly popular blog Kale & Chocolate. As an author, speaker, health coach, and podcast host, Elise’s mission are to empower women to create a healthier relationship with food and their bodies by changing what’s on their plate and what’s in their minds.

“It’s so much less about the food than it is about being together.” – Elise Museles
