The Peaceful Plate Project.
We help you build a balanced, compassionate relationship with food.
Using evidence-based nutrition, psychological insights, and global food wisdom to nourish your body, mind, and spirit every day.
Who we are
We are a nutrition coaching platform dedicated to helping people build a balanced, compassionate, and sustainable relationship with food. Our work is rooted in psychological science and guided by the belief that nutrition should support both mental and physical well-being—not perfection or restriction.
Through personalized meal write-ups, one-on-one consultations and coaching, virtual check-ins, and guided grocery store tours, we take a gentle, individualized approach that meets you where you are. We focus on long-term habits, self-trust, and realistic strategies that fit into everyday life. Our goal is to offer thoughtful, non-judgmental support that empowers you to nourish yourself with confidence and care.
