Hi! I'm Alexandra, and I love food. 

 

Have you ever felt that no matter how hard you try, you’re just not feeling your 100% best? You try eating healthy and live an active lifestyle, but you still don’t feel like you're making any progress.

My name is Alexandra Hayden Shea and I am a board-certified holistic health coach, and this is exactly how I felt during my engagement to my now husband. At a moment in time where I should have felt my absolute best, I realized I was struggling to feel good in my body. 

I had already tried fitness as a solution to the problem. I had spent hours on the treadmill, taken fitness classes, and I even ran my first half-marathon. Despite having accomplished such a huge physical feat, I realized I didn’t feel any healthier. This was my reality check. I needed to alter my mindset and change the way I was eating in order to change my body. 

It started with a few healthy recipes, but ultimately, I decided to turn my passion into expertise by studying at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition

As a food enthusiast, I had always thought that eating healthy meant eating boring. Throughout this process, I learned I could not have been more wrong.

Being healthy is more than just staying physically active, it’s about eating right and living mindfully. During my engagement, I created SHED (Soulful Healthy Eating Decisions) in order to help brides that felt the same way I did.

Designed to guide you through understanding your body, mind, and well-balanced nutrition; SHED will satisfy your soul through nourishing and tasty meal preparations. 

The SHED program will effectively help you feel your best on the big day, and will set you up with the right skills to feel this amazing every day! #itsalifestyle
