“I think the fact that I need to really pay attention to what does or doesn’t work for me and stop feeling guilty for “failing” on really generic health plans was really key! And I love the reminder that routine actually frees us from stress – I always associated it with laziness or boredom and being “stuck in a rut” and whatever another negative thing one could say. I also really need to focus on the marathon and not the sprint. I’ve been very guilty in the past of doing quick fixes and feeling good for a bit and then slowly reverting. Yo-yo dieter/health pursuer here. So thank you! I’m going to be journaling through the 5 Step Framework over the next few weeks and setting some goals.” – Anna
Relationship With Food →
“Before deciding to sign up for coaching, my biggest skepticism or hesitation was that I’d be pressured into making unnecessary or arbitrary changes since I was recovering from an eating disorder. This was my first time seeking treatment after many years and while I started this process voluntarily, I was still highly skeptical after my previous interviews with other nutritionists.
Now that I’ve had a chance to experience coaching, my perception has done a 180. Erica has been able to meet me where I am. She’s been able to balance providing me with fact-based, logical and clear explanations for recommendations with the support and understanding of what I was struggling with. Her optimism, positive attitude, and blameless approach have allowed me to learn without feeling the need to rebel, therefore inspiring more action on my part.
One specific takeaway that’s impacted my life is that eating should be viewed on a scale from eating for experience to eating for health. The goal isn’t to be on one side all the time and where you fall on that scale varies each day or each meal.
The impact that coaching will have on my life in the next 12 months is monumental. As someone recovering from disordered eating habits and ridiculously high standards for myself, I’m now able to enjoy food I used to be terrified of and enjoy experiences without thinking I need to push my body or “make up for it” after. It’s still hard and takes conscious effort, but it’s happening.
If you’re considering coaching, you should 100% try it! Erica is adaptable, encouraging, filled with knowledge that she can convey in an approachable way. The knowledge that I’ve learned and our touchbases have kept me grounded in my recovery and it’s worth taking the first step.
Erica has made a huge difference in my life at a time when I was emotionally raw, mentally exhausted and struggling. She got me to a place where I could stop ruminating about food and judging myself too harshly. She’s been a support system and teacher that I’m extremely grateful for.”

“I used to have an “all or nothing” mentality, I had a lot of “off-limit foods”. I really worked on this with Erica. After coaching, I already notice a huge difference. It’s a lot easier for me to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Erica was very professional and I felt totally at ease with her, which is super important. I never felt bad asking a question and she always answered with great empathy and knowledge. She really helped me identify issues I had in terms of my relationship with food and how to better it, which really opened my eyes and helped me tremendously. She was a great support on my way to wellness and she will continue being my go to person in the future may I need any further coaching. Thank you very much!” – Stéphanie
“I felt as though I wasn’t confident when making food choices, and when outside of my normal routine, I felt like I was a bit too restrictive and rigid. I wanted to be able to let go of the idea that there is a “right” thing to eat. I sought out Wellness Coaching with Nutrition Stripped to help guide me through this, and working with Erica did just that. We discussed the importance of food freedom and went through the basics of nutrition so I felt confident when making food choices, but not as though I had to select the “right” thing all the time. I now feel like I can relax and celebrate occasions when I go out to eat. Overall, I feel so much less vigilant and rigid when it comes to eating than I had in the past!” – Sarah

“My biggest takeaway was that I have an all or nothing mentality and I see it in everything from eating to routines. Excited to unpack and work on it, thank you!” – Molly
“I loved the pillars and the way they teach you to focus on the aspects of your life that matter on a more holistic level than the food itself. You make it more apart of how we are treating our bodies and mind and incorporate food from this perspective versus other way around.” – Michelle
“I didn’t realize how consuming eating was in my life and food — I was thinking about it all the time.
Everything was kind of, “Okay, where am I going to eat? What is that meal going to be like? Is it healthy? Is it unhealthy? Is it a good or a bad food? How can I get back on the wagon? Oh, I’ve fallen off the wagon, therefore I’m going to eat a whole pizza tonight.”
It consumed so much of my mental energy was just thinking about how am I going to eat, what’s the right way to eat, how do I get into the best physical shape that I needed to be? So it really used so much of my emotional and mental energy thinking about it. And I didn’t even realize it until I started really digging in and using the Method. It’s been a really freeing experience to be like, “Oh, I don’t have to spend so much time and energy anymore thinking about food….
I’m in law school. I work part-time. I have an internship. I’m taking five classes and I need all the energy and mental space I can get because I have a lot of responsibilities….
I didn’t realize how much it really was affecting me until I took this journey and can look back now and be like, “Whoa, so much has changed.” – Kelsey
“I just feel so much better. I really feel like I am at this point in my life, the healthiest that I’ve ever been. And I used to define health by the number on the scale or how I looked, my weight, and that is not how I define it anymore at all.
It’s — do I have the mental clarity? Do I have the energy to show up in the best way that I can every single day? Can I fulfill the goals that I want to have every single day? Can I work towards creating a better world for myself and my friends and my family and for everybody?
And I feel like I am so much more in tune with what I need, what I need to nourish myself both externally, how does my body look and feel, but also like internally of giving myself the time to really recharge and show up in a way in the world that I’ve always wanted to show up, but I didn’t realize that I could achieve that by just looking inside of myself and being in tune with myself.
So much has changed as far as how I view my health, how I want to take care of myself. It’s much more holistic. It was so much more on external factors and now looking at myself as a whole human being, my health as both physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, all of it. And that’s something I’ve never done before with myself or my health.” – Kelsey
“Before deciding to sign up for coaching with NS, my biggest skepticism was that it would be similar to other diets/nutrition plans I’ve tried before that only work in the short term. Now that I’ve actually signed up and participated in Wellness Coaching, I understand that healthy, balanced nutrition is a lifestyle rather than a temporary choice. The goals that Erica and I set are realistic and achievable. I’m now confident in my own skin and generally appreciate myself more!
If you’re considering coaching, the most important part is to realize that it’s worth it to make the investment in yourself. Thank you for your help over the last few months, Erica!” – Gabrielle

“I thought that the plan and “to-do” items would be too time-consuming or difficult to implement in my life. McKel used information about my current lifestyle and habits (and health) to create a framework that required implementing small changes over time that positively impacted my day-day life. If you’re on the fence, if you think this is a magic button, it isn’t, but it also isn’t hard. Be as honest as you possibly can about the timeline of your day and your habits. This will enable you to create a plan to support your health and your goals. If you commit to small changes over time, you can change the way you think about nutrition and positively affect your everyday life.” – Amy
“Mckel is a life changer. Nutrition is just a part of my life now, not a daunting task. I would recommend her to anyone!” – Ali
“I’m nearing the end go the course, and it’s been so helpful to have the Foundational Five knowledge…It’s really great to reflect on my progress and think about this past holiday. How free it felt for me…I looked at all the treats and I didn’t think to myself, “I have to eat all of them”, which was a really nice feeling, to be able to enjoy what I wanted to enjoy and still keep nutrition in mind and think about how I wanted to feel. It just felt really nice to be balanced and not stressed about the food over the holidays. So thank you for this program!”
