Meet Your Coaches
Hi, I'm Lucy!
It’s been over 10 years and still the best part of any day is spent chatting with clients that are fed up with conflicting and confusing nutrition and diet information online - instead, they've chosen to live Well Balanced.
I grew up with a health-conscious mom who also let me eat Pop-Tarts and Ramen noodles through High School because she knew when to pick her battles. When I turned 15, I started doing yoga and going to the gym with her. That’s where my interest in a healthy balanced life began (I know, I could’ve done better than Pop-Tarts!).
When I got to the University of Dayton for college, I thought EVERYONE would be knocking down the doors for a chance to talk about food and exercise all day. Turns out I'm a little weird… but that is what helps make the Well Balanced way more fun and delicious for my clients. It's a personal journey for everyone and I'm here to be your guide to create the best path to your health and well-being. Together we can tackle emotional eating tendencies, eating the best food for your body, and help you confidently answer the question: “what’s for dinner?”
In addition to offering one-on-one coaching, I am an author and motivational speaker.
When not at work, you can find me walking in the woods, practicing yoga and meditation, making new friends or helping out in my community. I enjoy the many state and national parks in NC and love a great backpacking adventure.
Hey! I'm Kristen.
I wasn’t always a healthy eater. My curiosity for nutrition began when I needed more energy to get through gymnastics practice as a kid. I got my hands on a nutrition 101 textbook (thanks Aunt Patty) and went to town with my highlighter. I had an interest to learn and the motivation to do better at practice but I had a big problem. I was a picky eater which made eating the right foods tough. It wasn't until I was in my 20s that I truly began to branch out and enjoy more foods. I still don't have the widest palette but I did learn to love vegetables and many healthy foods.
As I navigated adulthood I realized I had another problem: emotional eating tendencies. It was in college and the early stages of motherhood that I struggled the most. It wasn't until Lucy and I partnered up and studied mindful eating and behavior change books together that I felt in control of emotional eating and my well-being. It is so freeing to have the strategies and tools that I need and now I share them with my clients so they too can feel in control.
From overcoming picky eating to tackling emotional eating, I bring what I've learned from my journey and my education to you, but more importantly, I know that what works for me, isn't necessarily what will work for you. When you are looking to improve your lifestyle habits, you need someone in your corner who understands the complexities of nutrition and behavior change. You deserve an empathetic coach that takes the time to listen to your story and build a plan for wellness that is as unique as you are. I would love to be that coach for you.
Work with me in Clemmons, NC, or online.
In addition to offering one-on-one coaching, I share my love for lifelong learning on the Health Geeks Bookclub Podcast.
When not at work, you can find me hanging out with my little family or escaping for some alone time to be creative, read or relax in comfy clothes with something tasty to drink.

- Licensed and Registered Dietitian since 2007
- 15 years of experience counseling and coaching individuals and families on healthy eating

Hello! I’m Isabella but often referred to as Bella. I’m so glad you’re here and hope that after getting to know me, I will get to know you!
In an era of endless diet fads, weight-loss teas, and social media influencers, it's never been more confusing to know what to believe. But, I am here to learn about you, and together we will create a roadmap that’s tailored to you and your needs. You are wonderfully unique and require a diet and lifestyle that mirrors that.
I have been plant-based for 5 years and love to use the power of the plant in treating different diseases, symptoms, and health needs. Whether you’re vegan or a meat lover, I love to find ways to incorporate more color into every meal, so you can benefit from the powerful nutrients in hundreds of different plants! I also believe in an integrative approach, meaning that there is a root cause for any symptom and I believe in treating the source, not just the symptom. I work to combine the power of the plant with your specific needs to construct a holistic plan that'll get you feeling better than ever.

Bachelors of Science in Dietetics, Michigan State University (Go Green!)
