Course curriculum

Course content is delivered in three phases.
In Phase One you learn the eat.simple concepts. This is the science (the fun science!) that we put into place to begin to heal your metabolism. In Phase Two we explore important aspects of mindset, including how to handle life/work/social situations; how to "screw up" without spiralling out of control; and how to liberate yourself from the evil clutches of diet culture. Phase Three is all about "leaving the nest" -- are you ready to go? Why or why not? This is a relationship, and your coach, Erin, will be by your side every step of the way.
