Meet Jesie
Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor & Body Image Expert
My passion for this work didn’t begin in theory. It began in my own lived experience.
I’ve lived in a larger body my whole life. For years, I tried to change that through dieting, food rules, and cycles of restriction that always ended the same way - feeling more preoccupied with food, more disconnected from my body, and more frustrated with myself.
Over time, I began to step out of the all-or-nothing way we’re often taught to think about bodies and food. I found Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size, and I also started to notice something important: even helpful frameworks can become rigid when they turn into rules.
What I care most about now is the middle space.
A place where you can care for your health and still trust your body. Where worth isn’t tied to appearance or food choices. And where there’s room for real life and real complexity.
For me, this has meant learning to be in relationship with my body instead of at war with it. Not perfect acceptance, not control. Something steadier and more honest.
That’s what I bring into my work at She’s Well Fed.
I don’t believe you have to arrive at perfect body image or follow any one philosophy perfectly. I help women step out of extremes - whether that’s chronic dieting or chronic self-abandonment - and into a way of living that makes more room for their actual lives.
About My Approach
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I help women step out of extremes and build a more workable relationship with their bodies in real life.
There isn’t one right way to do this. Each person’s path looks different based on their history, their body, and what they’ve lived through.
Most struggles with food and body image aren’t about lack of knowledge. They’re shaped by things like years of dieting, trauma, grief, or chronic self-criticism.
In our work, we pay attention to what’s actually happening day to day - how you talk to yourself about your body, how you eat, how you move, and where you feel stuck.
From there, we look at what’s keeping those patterns in place and what small, realistic shifts might help you feel more steady and less at war with your body.
My role isn’t to give you a formula, but to help you build a way of relating to your body that fits your actual life.
