Meal Planning and Prep: 101

Learn how to navigate the grocery store, pick out healthy goods, and cook wholesome meals for you and your family with help from me!

Thanks to QUID for sponsoring this post!

This year I celebrated my 2 year anniversary as a Precision Nutrition Coach and my 5 year anniversary and a NASM certified personal trainer.

I don’t talk much about my training and coaching services online because a lot of my clients come from word of mouth references. That’s always been awesome because I know that the people who have referred me truly believe in my services and have seen major improvements from working with me. However, one of my BIG goals for 2019 was to expand my coaching clientele and to start working with more people in person.

As much as I LOVE working with people online, in person sessions can make such a big impact on a person’s life as well. Plus…since I know a lot of people can’t forward long-term coaching services, I wanted to start offering some options for people who need more of a jumpstart into healthy, balanced eating and living!

Beyond Nutrition Coaching

So, in addition to my 1-on-1 nutrition coaching and personal training services, I am now offering the following services…

GROCERY STORE TOURS

Feel overwhelmed about grocery shopping? Unsure about what foods to put in your cart for a healthy, balanced diet? Let me show you the in’s and out’s of your favorite local grocery store. After our session, you’ll feel more confident and more efficient when doing your weekly shopping.

IN-HOME MEAL PREP SESSIONS

Let me come to your home and help you meal prep! In our 1-2 hour meeting, I will teach and guide you through a simple, effective, and TASTY meal prep session. This session will be done in the comfort of your own kitchen and using the foods you like best. I will provide some recipe options for you to choose from in advance with enough time to pick up the required ingredients for our meal prep session.

I am SO excited to start working with people in this personal, individual capacity. And thanks to QUID, I’ve been able to easily set up a new transaction portal to make online payment for these services super easy.

What is QUID?

Essentially, QUID is an online payment platform that lets sellers accept penny-sized payments (also known as micropayments) on their digital properties. If you didn’t know, doing transactions in pennies on the web is CRAZY expensive. Most payment providers charge a flat fee of 30¢ + 3% for each transaction. So when you sell something for $1, you pay 33¢ in fees! INSANE, right?!

Until now, sellers wanting to sell low-cost products and services (or offer payment plans like I want to!) have had to work around this problem by bundling purchases together, selling subscriptions, or not charging for their products at all.

With QUID, there are NO FLAT FEES, so you can literally charge a dollar, or 10¢, or even a penny for your products, relieving yourself from the hassle of complex monetization schemes that make things more of a hassle for you and the consumer.

Easy Transactions with QUID

Now that I am using QUID, I have an easy system for you all to sign up and pay for your Meal Planning, Meal Prepping, or Grocery Store Tour sessions with me. When you contact me through my Nutrition Coaching page, you’ll be sent a direct QUID payment link where you can pay for our session. I am also willing to set up payment plans on a case by case basis if you can’t afford the payment in full right up front. Using Quid allows me to do that and makes accepting incremental payments hassle free on both sides.

Help Me Help YOU

Another awesome feature of QUID that I LOVE is the option for a Pennywall. I am not one to ask for help or donations (i.e. something like Patreon), but installing one of QUID’s Pennywalls on my sidebar makes it SUPER easy for anyone who likes the content I share and believes in my mission here on Healthy Helper to contribute in an amount…starting with 1 penny!

Another one of my goals this year is start offering some merchandise this year as well as more FREE downloadable content to help you in your healthy living goals. But all of that stuff has overhead…time and money. So contributions from all of you who will benefit from the new things I want to offer means so much to me. I am so proud of the Healthy Helper community we’ve built here over the past 9 (almost 10!!) years and I can’t wait to see what’s to come in the next decade.c

Here’s the link to the Healthy Helper Pennywall if you want to contribute!
