‘‘Feed your body, fuel your mind and live life to its fullest!”
“I’ve loved baking and creating chaos in the kitchen with my children since they were small, but felt uncomfortable with the high quantities of sugar in so many sweet treat recipes. I began to look more closely at what was going into our food and the effect it was having on our energy levels, mood and ability to focus. Wherever possible we now eat home-cooked meals packed full of wholefoods and minimise ultra-processed options! Luckily I love to cook so that does make it a little easier but it’s a huge learning curve! I didn’t expect to find myself studying nutrition in my late-40s, but a combination of this and a love of yoga - discovered during lockdown - has set me off in a whole new direction with renewed vitality and purpose.
Life as a mum of two has definitely been a rollercoaster ride over the past decade, spanning across two continents and navigating unexpected challenges. Yet, I’ve finally found my path again and invite you to join me as I help active kids and busy parents discover healthy food choices to make us all feel good in both body and mind!”
Hello…
Ruthie B is a mum on a mission…she’s swapped sugar for superfoods and is passionate about making healthy food choices fun for everyone! She is currently retraining to become a qualified Nutritional Therapist and has been running ‘Health and Wellbeing’ sessions in primary schools for the past few years.
Ruth truly understands the hectic pace of family life - parents are time poor, the cost of living crisis is real…. and it often seems that children are just constantly hungry!!! Yet a few simple steps can move us away from reliance on ultra-processed foods and help build a really positive relationship with fresh, nourishing ingredients to support both our physical and emotional wellbeing whatever our age!
Ruth enjoyed a career in Events and Marketing before having a family, successfully going on to run two small businesses whilst her children were small. She has completed various introductory courses and is now studying to become a qualified Nutritional Therapist with The College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM), as well as completing her Accredited Nutrition Diploma (level 4) at The Culinary Medicine College. She plans to specialise in children’s health, with a key focus on nutrition for neurodiversity. When she’s not having fun with her own family, she can be found either in the kitchen or on her yoga mat!
