As an expat herself, Kristen understands the unique challenges of moving to a new country.
Between learning a new language, finding a job, making friends, and managing visa appointments, your health may take a back seat.
You don't need to struggle with your health & and nutrition alone!
If you have recently moved to a new country and find yourself struggling with your nutrition, noticed weight changes, have challenges cooking with local food, or just feel exhausted by navigating the expat world alone -- Kristen is here to support you.
Moving abroad is an exciting experience. However, it can also bring about feelings of anxiety, stress, and even depression. Studies have found that 55% of expats exhibit signs and symptoms of anxiety or depression. Primarily due to 1) employment, 2) assimilating to a new country, 3) physical health concerns, or 4) managing stressors from their home country.
Studies have also found that disordered eating attitudes and body dysmorphia may increase during the relocation process.
