What is this course all about?
This self-paced course was created by an equestrian, for equestrians. It was made to provide you with the knowledge and tools you need to help you successfully heal your relationship with food, break the dieting cycle once and for all, reconnect with your body, improve your body image, and optimize your performance without the restriction.

This course is not for you if:

What graduated clients are saying:
"Since I started working with The Equestrian Dietitian [through the Buck Diet Culture program], I have lost a lot of the stress and worry around nutrition. I have gained freedom and clarity around foods that support me in my everyday life and my riding goals. All by applying intuitive to diet and trusting my body to guide me. I highly recommend her program to my horse friends + anyone who needs to gain clarity around nutrition ."
-Tiffany P.
"One of the best things to happen to me in 2021!"
-Jennifer W.
"I used to spend so much energy and time worrying about food, trying to eat less, counting calories...and I'd have no energy to ride, get tired, feel dizzy, have worse anxiety. Intuitive eating and rejecting diet culture made such a difference in my physical and mental health!”
-Anonymous rider
Meet your intuitive eating coach:
Hi! I'm Natalie :)
I'm a non-diet sports dietitian and am extremely passionate about helping riders heal their relationships with food and their bodies.
As an equestrian myself, I understand the physical demands, as well as the toxic diet culture, that is deeply embedded in our sport.
I've worked with hundreds of riders to help them heal their relationships with food and their bodies, and I created this self-paced course to make nutrition coaching accessible to every rider who wants to lose stress, anxiety & shame around food while gaining food freedom.
When I'm not working, you can probably find me at the barn with my OTTB Stella, on a hike with my mini doxie Luna, or at home relaxing with my cat, Erice.
