A Journey Worth Full-Filling

Fulfilling a Purpose

The field of nutrition and dietetics has been my passion for decades. I entered the field with a desire to help my patients improve the health of their human bodies. But over time, it became evident - in myself and in my patients - that true fullness and lasting fulfillment was a deeper matter entirely.

Health comes from the word “heal” which comes from the word “whole.” To be healthy means to be wholly who we are here on this earth to be. Yes, to be holy.

Health in this context means fully addressing our needs for physical, social, cognitive, emotional/mental and spiritual wellness. Being well (and doing well) require the synergy of these parts.

Each individual has unique preferences, needs and connections within these key areas, which are to be respected and nourished.

My preference, need and connection come from my Christian faith with the underpinnings of “loving God with my whole heart, soul, mind and body, and loving my neighbor as myself.”

No matter who you are or why you are here, the purpose of this blog is to love you and to serve you in the midst of any struggle around food, eating and body. Nutrition is important, but Nourishment is vital.

I founded The Full-Filling with a mission to give others a taste for something beyond physical food. And full-disclosure, I tell my patients to face their fears...so it’s only fair that I take a leap of faith, too. Here it is in this site created solely (soul-ly!) for your encouragement. 

Take some time to explore, ponder, and contemplate your own journey. No two journeys will look the same. Please feel free to reach out to share your needs or to receive this "food" for thought.

Here's to your Health!
