McKel is a leading voice in nutrition and mindful health, awarded “Top 20 Role Models” named by Arianna Huffington. As a Dietitian and author of the Nutrition Stripped Cookbook, her mission is to guide others on how to create habits with ease.
Her 5×5 Framework has helped thousands design a mindful way of eating and living unique to their body and lifestyle — by teaching how to apply the science of nutrition and practice the art of healthy living.
McKel is one of the very first people I followed on Instagram in 2012, and I’ve loved getting to know the kind, thoughtful human behind the powerful brand that she’s created!
Key takeaway: trust what feels right uniquely for you.
