You are your best investment—because your health, joy, and peace are the foundation for everything you do. At The GNAW Collective, we see wellness not as a trend or quick fix, but as a lifelong relationship with yourself rooted in nourishment, balance, and cultural respect.

As women of color, we’re often expected to push through exhaustion, ignore our bodies, and settle for advice that wasn’t created with us in mind. But here, we do things differently. We focus on nutrition that honors your culture, movement that works for your lifestyle, and support that actually sees you. Investing in yourself might look like saying no to burnout, choosing foods that fuel your energy and hormones, or joining a community that reminds you you’re not alone.

So yes—your wellness is worth the time, energy, and care. And you don’t have to figure it out on your own. Ready to prioritize you—for real this time? Book a 1:1 Nutrition Consultation and start living the balanced, nourished life you deserve. https://stefandbri.com/getstarted-gnaw/

Ever picked up a food package and felt like you were reading a foreign language?

You’re not alone, and it’s okay if you’re confused. Brands use packaging and buzz worthy claims that are designed to sell, not necessarily to provide clear nutrition education. Fortunately, that’s where nutrition facts labels come in to play! Here are a few things to check out when you’re looking at the nutrition labels:

✔️ Common allergens – foods that you may be allergic to should always be avoided

✔️ Fiber & protein content – key for fullness, blood sugar balance, and energy.

✔️ Serving size reality check – one package ≠ one serving. (Tricky, right?)

✔️ Sodium & added sugars – watch for sneaky sources that add up fast.

A little something to take the stress off.

Stress is one of the biggest culprits behind hormonal imbalances and a disrupted cycle, but did you know that dark chocolate could be your secret weapon to take the edge off?
 
Dark chocolate, especially varieties with 70% or more cocoa, is rich in magnesium, which can help reduce cortisol, your stress hormone, naturally. Magnesium is also key for relaxation and can support overall hormone function.
 
GNAW Tip: When you’re feeling overwhelmed, snag a square of dark chocolate and pair it with a mindful moment, whether that’s taking a deep breath or enjoying some quiet time to help soothe stress and elevate your mood.

How do you like your chocolate?!

Where are our low-iron girlies? 😫

If you have ever had low iron, then you know that it can lead to fatigue, lower stamina, poor focus during the day, and even changes to your menstrual cycle. All factors that impact daily performance, workouts, and reproductive health. That’s why starting with intentional nutrition habits like this iron-supportive smoothie can help maintain energy and nutrient needs.

What’s in it?
✔️ Spinach: A plant-based source of iron that may contribute to oxygen transport and endurance.
✔️ Banana: Offers carbohydrates for energy and potassium, a nutrient that supports normal muscle and nerve function.
✔️ Almond Milk: A dairy-free beverage that may be fortified with calcium and magnesium, nutrients important for muscle function and menstrual health.

Dietitian’s Tip: Plant-based (non-heme) iron isn’t absorbed as efficiently as iron from animal sources. Pair this smoothie with a good source of vitamin C, such as strawberries, oranges, or lemon juice, to enhance iron absorption. Or you can have a few eggs on the side to provide protein and iron.

Why it matters:
Us ladies have increased iron needs, particularly during menstruation and intense training. Supporting your iron and calcium intake through food can help you to feel your best even when life is lifeing.

Wellness isn’t about saying no to everything—it’s about saying yes to yourself. Yes to feeling strong, nourished, and confident in your own skin.

At The GNAW Collective, we believe that true wellness means honoring your culture, your body, and your story—not following rigid rules or unrealistic expectations. It’s about enjoying food without guilt, moving in ways that energize you, and finding a rhythm that works with your life—not against it. As dietitians who deeply understand the lived experiences of black and brown women, we’re here to walk with you—step by step—toward a life that feels good from the inside out. You deserve that... let’s build it together!
