Kristin Conroy

About Me: 

My goal is to reach out to teenage girls and women, to open the conversation to how we view food, our bodies, and ourselves. For many years, I saw food as The Enemy, something to be avoided and feared. I suffered mentally and physically from my eating disorders. Now I have a passion for cooking, REAL food, and holistic health and well-being. I have transformed my life and health, one step at a time. I want women to know they are not alone in their struggles, and show them how food can heal us, nourish us, and essentially change our lives for the better.

I created a site called Words Are Food, which focuses on whole foods, cooking, holistic well-being, and self-improvement. I invite you to visit and welcome any feedback you offer! www.WordsAreFood.com

Learning! Food, holistic wellness, cooking, sustainability, supporting local farmers
My Challenges:

My Vision for the Future: 
All of us having the knowledge of what real food is, where it comes from, and how it can help us live vibrantly.
My Areas of Expertise:
