Salt & pepper to taste

At the heart of it all, she is passionate about helping people see how food can support their goals, improve their health, and (most importantly) help them feel their best.
When she’s not working, Liv can usually be found teaching spin classes, curled up with a good book, or hanging out with her big dog, Benny. And if you catch her out and about, there’s a good chance she’ll be wearing leopard print - it’s kind of her thing.
