Couldn't happen without my mom
And misprounced quinoa + May's offer is closing shortly
I grew up with a mom who was ahead of her time when it came to food. She knew that food impacts how we feel. Case and point: we were eating quinoa before it was mainstream — and calling it “KWIN-NONA” because we had no idea how to say it.

So when my period hit and the pain was off the charts, I naturally turned to food to help. It didn’t cure me, but it made a real difference in how I felt day to day.
That pain became my biggest incentive to eat well — but in my desperation, I also tried ways of eating that didn’t serve me. The worst? Low-carb. Cue brain fog. Lots of it.
So while working at the firm, I started deep diving into nutrition — learning what our bodies actually need: enough protein, real nutrients, and consistent nourishment in the right balance. It’s really not mainstream knowledge (yet).
So I built a blueprint to guide meals.
Pair that with the fact that I’m obsessed with good food (I’m second-gen italian, it’s in the blood).
But here’s the thing, I couldn’t find food that checked all the boxes, let alone actually modern and creative — this is why we are building BETTER BOWLS.
And I don’t think this would’ve happened without my mom.

If you’ve been on the cusp to order bowls, May is the time to pull the trigger. These bowls will simplify meals during your week (e.g. bring to the office or healthy WFH lunch).
I am personally offering one complimentary bowl on your first order.
