Who I am?
I believe that food should be both for enjoyment as well as nourishment, they are both similarly important. It is a sad meal if you don’t enjoy it. Likewise it is a useless meal if there is no nourishment in it. Either of them missing will result in stressful search, let’s not do that! Finding a balance of those two, keeping it and enjoying them will be a great achievement. Relaxing the search and concentrating on more pleasureable sides of life is what we are after with our cooperation.
During my basic studies, I got very interested in food and its healing powers. One of my observations was that people gravitate towards foods that provide pleasure rather than nutritional values. Naturally, this leads into indulging in comfort food on the expense of 'healthy' foods - which I often hear compared to cardboard. Such a pity as you just need to know how to combine taste with nutrition!
I believe that everyone can have control over their own health and the key is to find good advise and follow it. I am happy to be well versed in various diets, ethnic as well as medical, weight loss, health promoting diets many more. Basically, I am a food obsessed person!
My working life
My working life has mostly been in training and in corporate life, very exciting and rewarding. However, it was exhausting and during those years I was struggling with my health. Regardless of my extensive knowledge in nutrition, I didn't understand what the underlying reason was till I came across Yvonne’s Candidacoach program. Having a coach turned out to be a blessing as following her advise brought me results within 24 hours. In particular, I was very happy to have my coach holding my hand during my months of transition thus keeping me in the course: going through the process had its ups and downs.
Currently I feel better than I have ever before regardless of my years! Finally my energy and health are stable and I face every day with pleasure. For this reason, I decided to start coaching others too, instead of only giving advise. As a coach, your clients get better results as a coach can exercise discipline the way a therapist can't.
studies
My first training was very practical as a Teacher of Domestic Economics, Firstly I worked several years arious capacities as a manager and trainer, during which time I also continued my training to a nutritional therapist next to my job. After I gratuated 2006 I continued Candicacoach training, which I finished 2019. During all my time studying formally, I have studied, tried and tested several diets, including vegan and raw diets and I have also been vegetarian for 30 years.

After all my experience I have become versatile and compassionate person and this shows in the way that I coach.

This will also be in a manner that will be surprisingly easy to achieve and keep up for the rest of your life. Of course, my personal experiences, research, and education have given me extensive knowledge when it comes to nutrition, exercise and the effects of stress and emotional and psychological struggles.

A great interest of mine is to continuously read and study scientific material and latest research on the health effects of diet and gut health. Then I blog about them in a very common sense way, understandable for everyone. You can find my blog here.
