About
Lindsey Smith began her cycle of binge eating at age 4. Her foods of choice were Swedish Goldfish, Watermelon Sour Patch Gummies, and blue Flying Saucers. With a background like that, you can count on Lindsey to demonstrate compassion and humor as well as powerful insights into your relationship with food.
After overcoming childhood anxiety and weight gain through discovering the connection between foods and moods, Lindsey immersed herself in studying the emotional connections people have with food. She learned that when people look to food for nutrients like acceptance, comfort, celebration, and love, a disastrous cycle of junk foods and junk moods begins. This insight, combined with Lindsey’s expertise as a certified Health Coach, means Lindsey is ideally qualified to help clients gain freedom over destructive food habits.
Founder of “The Real You,” Lindsey serves clients as a keynote speaker, a one-on-one coach, and author of the book Junk Foods & Junk Moods: Stop Craving and Start Living. She helps clients lose weight, increase energy, and gain a healthy lifestyle by uncovering their personal connection with the foods they eat and their moods.
Lindsey’s approach is not a quick-fix, quick-fail diet, but rather a journey toward understanding yourself and the food choices you make. Her solutions are not designed to make clients sacrifice or deprive themselves for health, but to make small changes that build to big results.
Lindsey shares a personal story that shows she’s been there and overcame obstacles at a young age. Her positive attitude and humor has been a crowd please to many audiences, including the Pennsylvania Nutrition Education Network, WIC Family Services, the Pennsylvania Mental Health Consumer Association, and PNC Bank.
Whether you work with Lindsey one-on-one, engage her to deliver a presentation, or read Junk Foods and Junk Moods, you can be sure you will laugh, cry, and find inspiring solutions to your own problems with food and mood relationships!
