Hey, I’m Amber.

My relationship with food—and my body—started long before I understood what was really going on.

Looking back, I can see how early it began. Around eight years old, patterns started forming that would follow me for decades—binging, restricting, trying to control my body, trying to fix something I couldn’t quite name.

For a long time, I believed the answer was discipline. If I could just get it right—eat the right way, be more controlled, try harder—everything would finally settle.

And for a while, I could make it work.

From the outside, it looked like I had it together. I became a chef, built a life around nourishment, and opened a health-focused café. But behind the scenes, I was exhausted, constantly thinking about food, and never fully at peace in my body.

What I understand now is this:

It was never just about food.

Food was the language of something deeper—

stress, emotions, patterns, and beliefs I didn’t yet know how to process or express.

Today, my work goes far beyond food. I guide women in coming back into relationship with their bodies—learning how to feel safe, listen deeply, and let go of the patterns that once kept them stuck.

And this is the heart of my book, Hungry: Reclaiming Food Freedom and Finding Peace in Your Body—an invitation to begin that journey for yourself.
