Client testimonials

“I’ve been a casual gardener for years now, but my friend Suzette Chaumette, MPH has helped me to think more deeply about the food I’m growing, why I’m growing it, and how politics controls our access to healthy food.” – Tanya F.

“For years, I struggled with my weight and the chaos of emotional eating, especially after turning 40 and facing increased life stress. My DoorDash habit was out of control, averaging over $1000 a month. I knew something needed to change, but it wasn't until I started working with Suzette and Food Indy that it truly clicked.

The biggest game-changer was the mindfulness component. Meeting regularly with Suzette as an accountability and awareness partner transformed my understanding of my relationship with food. What felt instinctive became tangible – I pinpointed the exact times and situations that triggered my emotional eating. I had even tried Noom before, and while I feel that platform is a good one, it was lacking the personal connection of just talking to another person. Suzette has a very maternal presence and a nurturing, patient approach to working with you, and for me, the coach made a much larger difference than just an app.

The results are incredible: for three months straight, my DoorDash spending has been under $100! I owe this entire shift in awareness and the ability to even see the problem to Food Indy. I've lost over 30 pounds and am well on my way to losing more. I also now have made cooking and my relationship with food a more intentional enjoyment of what I consume, planning meals on Sundays, and taking the time to bless my body with nutrition from the ground. It didn't happen overnight, but it certainly happened. The best part about the program is it helped me to find these things on my own rather than having other ideals forced upon me.

Ultimately, love was found where there was already like; repetition replaced where there had already been bad habits; discipline replaced what had been culinary chaos. I plan, I cook, I clean, I win!

Thank you, Suzette and Food Indy, for being a key driver in this current change of my life.”
