MEET THE FOUNDER

Jeannine

Nutrition & Holistic health strategist

I’m on mission to empower women in mid-life to reclaim their radiance by harnessing the power of nutrition & holistic wellness – helping you glow from the inside out. I want to help women change their narrative around getting older and help them build sustainable health habits that will help them live their most vibrant life.

How Eat Beautifully Started

Like a lot of women, Jeannine’s health and wellness journey began with a focus on weight loss. She relied on calorie counting, carb restriction and overexercising to balance out bad habits. As a young public relations professional, her career was fueled by happy hours, late nights, little sleep and too much stress. 

All these bad habits finally caught up to her when she struggled to get pregnant – due to hormonal imbalances and gut health issues caused by her lifestyle choices – and didn’t come to light until she was diagnosed with “unexplained fertility.”

Two children later, her health and hormonal imbalances only got worse with the sleep deprivation, intense exercise and the stress of trying to manage a career, babies and a home. Her old old habits of restricting carbs and intense cardio no longer worked. She felt inflamed, her hair was thinning, her sleep was a mess and she could not lose weight. 

Fed up, Jeannine was inspired to get her health coach certification from the renowned Institute of Integrative Nutrition in New York. A public relations executive in healthcare, Jeannine has always been passionate about health, but her approach to hear health was transformed when she learned about gut health, the role hormones play in women’s health, inflammation, and how it’s all interconnected. She finally understood the WHY behind her symptoms and founded her health coaching practice, Eat Beautifully (a homage to her love of creating beautiful, healthy meals) to help other women. 

Jeannine knows first hand what it’s like to transform your how you feel when you prioritize your health. Today, Eat Beautifully teaches women about the transformational connection between nutrition, foundational health practices and well-being.

What is a health coach?

A health coach is trained to support individuals in making nutrition and lifestyle changes to improve their health. We don’t prescribe specific diets or nutrition plans. We work with our clients to explore areas of life which may be out of balance, set achievable goals, and work together through perceived barriers to achieve these goals. Set up a free 1:1 call to learn more. 

What is your eating philosophy?

I work with clients to identify a diet which works for them – whether that’s omnivore, paleo, vegan, pegan, vegetarian etc. Regardless of your eating style, science has repeatedly shown that the power of plants is the foundation for helping us feel our best on the inside and look radiant on the outside. I believe eating natural, nutrient-rich foods is the key to lasting health.

What are your credentials?

I trained with the Institute of Integrative Nutrition (IIN) which is the largest nutrition school in the world. IIN is an accredited, globally recognized health coach training program which is licensed by the New York State Education Department.

Should I see a health coach instead of a doctor? 

No! Health coaches can work to support the recommendations of your doctor but do not replace recommendations made by a healthcare professional. If you are struggling with a specific health condition, I will work alongside your care team to help ensure you are following the recommended dietary and lifestyle modifications. 

What types of issues can you help with?

As a health coach, I work with clients to keep them on the right path and in good health. Some examples of where I may be able to support you include (but are not limited to): weight loss, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, sports performance. Over the course of my training I learned about:

  • How gut health impacts all aspects of our health
  • The role of nutrition in inflammatory diseases
  • The impact of women’s hormones on our health
  • How stress and lack of sleep affect everything from our mental health to metabolism
  • How to control blood glucose and the impact of sugar
  • Why it’s important to take a holistic approach to health, paying attention to other factors like sleep, stress and movement.

6 common mistakes you may be making that’s making healthy eating harder. 1. Thinking every meal has to be an elaborate recipe. Especially during the week I put together simple assembly line style meals (protein + grain + veggie + sauce) and make a few special recipes on the nights I’ll have more time. Keeping meals simple also were key during the periods I was trying to actively lose weight. 2. Spending hours on meal prep. Meal prep doesn’t have to mean 3 hours on Sunday with the same meals all week. Prep few components throughout on one day (extra protein, grains in the instant pot) and use the ingredients as a base for meals throughout the week. 3. Shopping for multiple individual recipes. All it takes is a few busy days at work or a sick kid and I have food going to waste in my fridge. Instead I think in components (ground beef, vegetables, grains) and have some go to “assembly line meals” I can adapt. 4. Not inderstanding portion sizes. I was eating healthy but once I spent time weighing/measuring my food and track it I saw where I was undereating (carbs) and overeating (fats!). I also realized I was eating way too much protein and not enough fiber. 5. Neglecting fiber. just because you eat a lot of vegetables doesn't necessarily mean you're taking in enough fiber. (vegetable salads aren’t a great source, ladies). Being more intentional about fiber with grains, seeds, fruit will help keep you satiated and improve digestion. 6. Overlooking the freezer. I noe make sure the freezer is always stocked with frozen pre-cut vegetables, rice and proteins. When possible, make extra of soups and sauces to quickly reheat. This ensures you can always pull together a quick healthy meal and avoids defaulting to take out. The goal is a system that works in real life.

The Busy woman’s cheat sheet to changing your body in midlife. Here are six things that I stopped doing that made healthy eating easier and help me get leaner and stronger at 47. 1. Thinking every meal has to be an elaborate recipe. Especially during the week I put together simple assembly line style meals (protein + grain + veggie + sauce) and make a few special recipes on the nights I’ll have more time. 2. Spending hours on meal prep. Meal prep doesn’t have to mean 3 hours on Sunday with the same meals all week. I prep a few components throughout the day (extra protein, grains in the instant pot) and use ingredients throughout the week. 3. Planning individual recipes. All it takes is a few busy days at work or a sick kid and I have food going to waste in my fridge. Instead I think in components (ground beef, vegetables, grains) to put something together quickly. 4. Neglecting portion sizes. I was eating healthy but once I started to weigh my food and track it I saw where I was undereating (carbs) and overeating (fats!). You can be eating clean but macros + calories count too. 5. Neglecting fiber. When I experimented with tracking my food I saw I wasn’t taking in nearly enough fiber (vegetable salads aren’t a great source, ladies). Being more intentional about fiber helped improve my satiety and digestion. 6. Forgetting about the freezer. I make sure the freezer is always stocked with frozen pre-cut vegetables, rice and proteins. When possible, I made extra of soups and sauces to quickly reheat. This ensures I can always pull together a quick healthy meal and avoids defaulting to take out. The goal is a system that works in real life.

If you're overwhelmed by all the health advice for women over 40, comment HABITS and you can immediately download the Health Edit - with simple habits you can start today for immediate return, questions to bring to your doctor, and labs worth discussing. Here's something I wish more women understood: Not every healthy habit deserves the same amount of your time and energy. Three intentional strength workouts may do more for your goals than five random classes. Eating enough to support your activity may serve you better than cutting another 200 calories. And an extra hour of sleep might be more valuable than another early morning workout. The point isn't to do everything. It's to understand what your body needs now and focus your effort there. That's the philosophy behind Live Powerfully. I help ambitious women in midlife cut through the wellness noise and build personalized strategies for strength, energy, and long-term health—without making wellness another full-time job. Comment HABITS and let's get you started. Follow @LivePowerfullyCo for less wellness noise and more of what actually works. #perimenopause #womenover40 #womenshealth #workingmom #workingmomlife

This is where I think so many high-achieving women in midlife get stuck.... We're used to believing that more effort + less calories equals better results. So when our bodies don't respond to that strategy anymore, we double down. But here's what I wish I'd understood sooner: if your whole goal is just to burn calories, you aren't building anything that is gonna support your metabolism in a long-term. If you want to build muscle, you need a plan that challenges your muscles progressively (Ps - that doesn't always mean lifting heavier weights, but we'll get to that in another post.) You need enough food to support that work. And you need recovery so your body can actually adapt. It's not about abandoning cardio or never being in a calorie deficit. It's about understanding how all the pieces work together instead of treating each workout like a transaction for calories in and out. **This is exactly what I help women do through Live Powerfully.** We look at your nutrition, strength training, recovery, and the realities of your schedule to build a personalized health strategy that supports your goals without making wellness another full-time job. Because you've already built a big life. Your health strategy should help you live it. Follow @LivePowerfullyCo for less wellness noise and more of what actually works. **Want to explore 1:1 support?** DM me POWER then we can set up a 1:1 exploratory call.
