Areas of Interest: Helping people improve their energy, strength, and joy! People often connect with me for topics on how to eat healthier (without overwhelming changes), how to simplify at-home cooking, nutrition education, anxiety and stress management, and how to improve sleep. I like to help people set realistic, personalized goals and create strategies to help them stay on track to see results.

Daniele Ginta - Menopause Coach and Nutrition Consultant
In a few words: I am a nutrition consultant and menopause coach and I have been a freelance writer on health and science topics for over two decades. I am passionate about the work that I do. A big part of my passion comes from knowing that our bodies are incredibly resilient. When we choose to eat in a balanced way, move regularly, sleep and manage stress, our bodies respond accordingly.
I love providing my clients with evidence-based information they can apply and most of all, I love seeing the positive impact it has on their health and well-being. I am a big believer in the need to keep on learning about how we can improve health, reduce the risk of chronic diseases associated with aging (but not necessarily a part of it!), and help our bodies navigate through challenging life stages, such as menopause.
Together with my family, our dog included, I love exploring the outdoors, hiking, backpacking, and discovering the many amazing places in our province. I also love reading, gardening, and being involved in the community through volunteering.
