I'm Elise Harlow, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist based in Southern California with a love for all things food.
I provide virtual nutrition coaching, quick consults, and personalized meal planning services.
Growing up, my mom taught me how delicious real, home cooked food can be. Her commitment to nourishing our family with wholesome ingredients sparked my interest in nutrition. My goal is to make nutrition simple and realistic, helping you use food to feel better, have more energy, and nourish your body without stress or confusion.
I’m originally from Texas, but Southern California now feels like home. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me in the kitchen cooking, relaxing or walking at the beach, hiking, enjoying a good book by the pool, or spending time at the gym or a local coffee shop. And of course, I love anything that involves food.

My Philosophy
I believe that eating should, first and foremost, be enjoyable.
Food is meant to be satisfying and social—not stressful. My goal is to help you build a way of eating that supports both your health and your happiness, because the healthiest lifestyle is one you truly enjoy living.
True wellness comes from a balance between nourishing your body and still finding joy in what you eat.
Physical & Mental Health
Enjoying the foods you eat is an essential part of both physical and mental well being. Some foods nourish your body, while others nourish your soul. Both play a valuable role in living a healthy life. Finding the balance between the two can be challenging, but it’s where lasting change happens.
Although I am a Registered Dietitian by trade, I am human first. Humans are not meant to be perfect. The same goes for food. There is no single perfect way to eat. I believe enjoying your food is just as important as the nutrients it provides. My goal is to help you build sustainable habits that make nutrition feel enjoyable, and realistic for your everyday life.
