Hi, I’m Vanessa, a kidney dietitian helping people with Stage 3-4 CKD understand their labs and what to eat so kidney care finally makes sense. 

Registered Dietitian specializing in CKD nutrition.

If you’re navigating CKD and feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice, you’re in the right place.

Below are a few ways you can learn from me or get support 💚

FREE GUIDE

What Can I Actually Eat with CKD?

Tired of Googling every food…or knowing everything you’re supposed to limit but still wondering what the heck you’re supposed to eat?

Get actual breakfast, lunch, dinner & snack ideas, plus help making sense of foods like potatoes, bananas + avocado that you may have been afraid to put on your plate.

Thrive Kidney method coaching program

Thrive Kidney Method is my signature 12-week coaching program — with two ways to get support: personalized 1:1 coaching or a supportive small group experience.

It’s designed to hand you (and your kidneys!) the tools you need so you know what and how to eat for CKD.

We start October 19!

The Kidney Plate Reset Challenge

$17

A 5-day challenge to help you stop second-guessing what belongs on your plate & actually start building meals that support your kidneys.

Each day, you’ll get a 10–15 minute video training + simple challenge to help you put what you’re learning into practice.

We’ll work through building your plate, adding more plants, making sense of protein, putting together a full day of meals & creating a grocery list you can actually use.

So instead of collecting more foods you’re “allowed” to eat, you’re learning how to turn them into breakfast, lunch, dinner & snacks.

Starts September 14. Join us for $17. 

Kidney Lab Audit

$197

Send me your recent kidney labs and I’ll walk through what your numbers may be reflecting about your kidney health – and what that means for how to support your kidneys with food.  

You’ll receive a 25+ minute personalized video review delivered within 7 days.

We’ll look at patterns like: eGFR changes, Creatinine and BUN trends, potassium trends, how protein intake may be influencing your labs.

Then I’ll share 2–3 personalized nutrition changes you can start using with your meals based on what I’m seeing in your labs + what you’re currently eating. 

Perfect if you keep getting labs back and thinking:
“Okay…but what does this mean for what I should actually be eating?

Private 1-1 nutrition counseling for CKD

 

Private CKD Coaching — Work With Me 1:1

For Stage 3–5 CKD when you want more than a one-time plan.

We’ll use your labs, what you’re actually eating and what’s changing with your health to keep adjusting your meals as we go.

So when your labs change, dinner isn’t working, you’re nervous about an upcoming event, or you’re standing in the grocery store wondering what to buy, you don’t have to wait until the next appointment and hope you figure it out.

This is ongoing support for managing CKD in your actual life…not just during our sessions.

Single Session Intensive

$297

One 75-minute session for Stage 3–4 CKD when you want personalized support without committing to ongoing coaching.

We’ll look at your labs, what you’re currently eating & the CKD concerns you’re trying to figure out so we can identify what changes make sense to start with, what you can begin doing with your meals + what questions may need to go back to your medical team.

This session isn’t meant to solve every CKD concern in 75 minutes. It’s a solid starting point when you want to understand where to focus first and get a feel for what personalized coaching with me is like.

Thrive beyond the numbers

$47

A 3-part on-demand mini-program to help you understand what your kidney labs are actually showing you…and what that could mean for the way you’re eating. 

You’ll get 3 short on-demand masterclasses you can watch at your own pace.

Here’s what we cover:

Day 1: Why most CKD diet advice doesn’t work
Day 2: What labs like eGFR, creatinine, and BUN actually reveal about your kidney health
Day 3: Why your GFR may not improve even when you’re “doing everything right”

So when your labs come back, you’re not left thinking:

“Okay…is what I’m doing helping? Do I need to change something? Or am I worrying about the wrong thing?”

You’ll have more understanding for how to look at your labs and the food choices you’re making without guessing your way through every result.
