Meet Kristy Shaughnessy, Clinical Nutritionist
Kristy was born in New York in an Irish and Polish family, which means culture, food and traditions have always been a huge part of her life growing up, giving her a natural passion for nutrition. As a child, Kristy struggled with her weight, getting nutritional advice from a conventional approach that simply didn’t work.
It wasn’t until she attended a seminar of Dr. Olivia Joseph’s, that she gained hope and saw the benefits of helping others reach their health goals through a holistic approach. At that moment she realized she wanted to be in the healthcare field in the future and was determined to reach this goal so she could help others who struggled just like herself. Providing simple, healthy and easy to follow alternatives to eating healthy and educating the community on the importance of this for healthier generations to come.
