I’m a certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and licensed educator commited to educating, supporting, and building a community of like-minded individuals who are striving to create a positive relationship with food.
Hi, I’m Holly Burk.
For almost as long as I can remember, I struggled with my relationship to food. I LOVED to eat, but received so many confusing messages about what kinds of food and how much to eat that it made my relationship with food very complicated. The disordered patterns I developed around food eventually led me to an anorexia diagnosis when I was 19.
I spent years struggling to heal and to create a peaceful relationship with food, but I found it so hard to completely recover in a world inundated with relentless diet culture and toxic wellness messaging. I was frustrated and overwhelmed with feelings of being trapped in a life where I felt like I might never be able to get rid of the guilt and shame I felt around eating.
Then, I discovered the book Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. I was blown away by what I learned while reading the book, and the ideas and concepts resonated with me…. however, I wasn’t sure if it would work for me. I was wary and doubtful that after years of diet culture conditioning, I wouldn’t be able to become an intuitive eater.
I was wrong. Over time, I have been able to develop my intuitive eating voice through two key factors: education and community.
A Brief History
Education
In May 2026, I completed the Intuitive Eating Counselor certification program, created by Elyse Resch and Evelyn Tribole. In the past few years I’ve also immersed myself in scientific articles, books, podcasts, and other resources centered around intuitive eating, body neutrality, and weight stigma.
Community
Getting support from like-minded family members and friends was critical for me as I developed my intuitive eating voice. Building a network of support, virtually and in-person, is one of my main goals as an Intuitive Eating Counselor.
As your Intuitive Eating Counselor, I teach you activities and provide you with resources that help you build a toolbox to develop your intuitive eating voice. I also give you unwavering support while partnering with you as you embark on your intuitive eating journey.
