ABOUT

Hi! I’m Heather.

I’m a wife, mama of 2 little boys (Asher & Judah), and a certified holistic nutrition coach.

We live in the Texas hill country where we make messes in the kitchen, homeschool, and like to explore new places. I’m a Texas girl who married a northern California boy with the last name of Love, which brought me to the name of this blog– THE SIMPLE LOVE!

When I was 6, my first grade teacher asked all the students what we wanted to be when we grew up. I proudly announced, a pastry chef! She chuckled; she must have thought I was either genius or insane. I’ll never know. My bakery had a name, and often after school, I’d jot down a recipe, pull out my old-school camera, put on my chef hat, and start baking! When my mom discovered my dream job, she kindly informed me that pastry chef’s often arrive at 4am to work. I was shocked. I knew I needed to find a different outlet for my dream job.

In my early 20’s, I had the opportunity to travel the world as a model in the fashion industry. As a shy girl, I found a new confidence and independence. The challenges of finding my way around a new town, sharing a model apartment with girls from all over the world, learning pieces of a new language, and discovering new foods and friends brought so much excitement!

Fast forward to motherhood. After my first baby was born, I struggled with digestive problems, anxiety and fatigue. I was in search for the “perfect diet” and to be “super mom.” My unrealistic goals lead me to an unhealthy relationship with food. I lost my energy, my passion, and my joy. During this time, I decided to study nutrition, something that always sparked my interest. Along the way, I discovered I desperately needed some balance in my life. I also needed to correct my mindset. It was encouraging to see my joy and motivation slowly come back. I let myself find enjoyment in food and life again, instead of it controlling me.

In college, I received a degree in Graphic Design, but over the years I have discovered a passion for raising my little ones, cooking, and creating a healthy environment in our home, body and soul. I’m a full on health nerd who loves to research the latest articles on health; take what I learn, try something new or test it in our home. I believe the body can heal itself, with just a bit of nutrients, nature, love and encouragement, you were meant to live your most energetic, happy life.

I hope to simplify healthy living for you. Over the years I have learned that health isn’t so complicating and mothering isn’t so perfect.
