Meet Petra
My parents lived by the motto of "healthy eating, healthy living, and happiness" - values that became the cornerstone of my upbringing. Growing up in China during the late 80s, I vividly recall our trips to bustling markets, where live chickens, live fish, and an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables were the norm. Even at the tender age of five, I was well acquainted with the term "fibre" – one of my father's favourite subjects. Our breakfasts often featured nutrient-rich smoothies or milk with high fibre content, while red meat was a rare indulgence reserved for visits to friends' houses. Desserts were a weekend delight, and I was introduced to superfoods like goji berries and chia seeds by my mother, a passionate reader of nutrition books and magazines. Healthy eating wasn't just a practice; it was in my DNA.
When I became a mother myself, I embraced the wisdom and values instilled in me by my own mother. For our family, purchasing processed foods from the supermarket shelves was a resounding "NO." As I observed many of my friends opting for chicken nuggets and highly processed items for their children, I couldn't help but question the choices being made. This curiosity ignited a deeply personal mission to empower fellow parents on their journey towards healthier alternatives. The turning point occurred when another mom, feeling lost, turned to me and asked, "Where do I even begin?" It was at that moment I made the commitment to support these mothers, one family at a time. My path led me to pursue a Health and Integrative Nutrition Coaching Certificate at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition in New York, solidifying my dedication to this project, which has now become a heartfelt passion in a world saturated with unhealthy choices. I am here to guide you towards a path of wellness, just as my family has guided me throughout my life. Together, we can make conscious choices that benefit not only our health but also our happiness. Welcome to a journey of healthier living.
