Hello! For those of you who don’t know me yet, I’m Carol, and I haven’t been posting a ton lately, as I was finishing up (my second!) grad degree (in sustainable food systems)!

I’m a nutritionist that focuses on cultivating healthy relationships to self, to food, to others, and ultimately reconnect/deepen connection to the natural world. I am an advocate for LGBTQ+ informed healthcare and for building equitable solutions to the many problems facing our food systems today.

I was recently(ish) diagnosed with ADHD. The doctor prescribed me meds (stimulants) that don’t agree with me so much, and I have struggled to find resources to help me deal with some debilitating symptoms. It has been a struggle.

Even more recently, as I've been struggling with gaining (and keeping) sustainable employment, I’m beginning to think there’s more to my story than ADHD, and that I may have Autism as well. In my research, and through connecting with others, all of this has been a mind-blowing process that is beginning to make sense of my life thus far.

Follow along as I distill research into accessible nutrition and lifestyle tips to support ADHD, share information that you may also find mind-blowing, and take you with me on my journey towards a possible ASD diagnosis.

I’m also introducing my “Buy Me a Coffee” page here- as a cute way to connect and support my efforts and work. You can find that here or through the link in my bio:

Also, this is my cat, Lionel- I'm obsessed with this furball!
