Robbie's philosophy |
I believe wholeheartedly in balance and a "everything in moderation" approach. "Diet" is a word that you won't hear me say too often, which is ironic considering I am a Dietitian. However, Diets are usually overly complicated and make it unrealistic for most people to follow them. One may get fantastic results from a diet, but keeping the results is often unsustainable. That's why I want to help educate people to get back to basics and with my help, you can expect: a healthy metabolism, more energy and vitality, more muscle, less fat, improved hormone balance and, more importantly, a different mindset when it comes to food and eating.
My approach in achieving and maintaining optimal health is focused more on just food and nutrition, the remaining pillars of a healthy lifestyle include: stress management, exercise and moving your body, hormone balance, quality sleep, work-life-balance, and healthy and positive relationships with others. The number one challenge or obstacle I see in my clients is consistency, whether it be around food choices, exercise or stress management. I believe consistency and accountability is the key in achieving your health goals and is an area that I work very hard on with my clients. "Success is the sum of small efforts - repeated day in and day out." As a business owner, I understand the challenges that come with a busy lifestyle, but I would like to think that I practice what I preach every day. Helping people cut through the hustle and bustle of life by educating and providing tips around thoughtful food choices and preparation methods that fit into their busy schedules is key. My mission is to help people get back to basics and make eating simple and healthy by providing clear, approachable nutrition education and recipes that are easy, convenient, time-saving and most importantly suit the needs and desires of people's lifestyle. Also, my goal is to help decipher and dispel the nutrition myths that are filling the heads of all Australian's by the media and provide sound, evidence-based nutrition and health advice to all. |
