Stories That Inspire Us with Kristy Baranovskis - 07.13.22

Stories That Inspire Us welcomed to today’s podcast, Kristy Baranovskis. Kristy is a certified Kitchen Confidence Coach, specializing in nutrition and meal prep. She works with moms to create simple, easy routines and meals in the kitchen so that they have less stress and more time in their day.

From the time Kristy can remember, she struggled with food. Food was the center of her family gatherings growing up. Over time, food became a comfort and also what she turned to when she was bored. As she so eloquently described and with a lot of respect for her journey “The problem was the food I turned to was empty in calories and void of nutritional value.”

Kristy shared with great detail that her mindset and being aware did not come easily. She knew with certainty that her journey started with food and she wanted so much more for herself.

It comes from the backdrop of her story behind the story - she looked to food for comfort again and again and after her oldest daughter was born her marriage began to dissolve. She went through a divorce and found herself a single working mom. As she describes, everything was a struggle and of course finances were the main part of her struggle. She found herself depressed and was thankful to just get through to the end of the week. Again, she found herself lacking in skills to deal with all these life stressors, and found a familiar comfort with food.

She knew she had to start somewhere and for her and she had such a passion in her heart to help other single Moms! That first step was a big step! She vividly remembers going to Barnes & Noble and purchasing the South Beach Diet book for $15.95. Her life, her turning point, where she was as a single Mom, she wanted to share her journey with other Mom’s which led to her business Klean Eating with Kristy where she has a few courses - the first one specializing in nutrition and meal prep and her next signature program Flavor University (virtual cooking classes).

Kristy explained in great detail what each program has to offer. She also shared some of her kitchen confidence including her favorite appliance (an Insta Pot) and how to “clear” the clutter along with a pantry overhaul and the essential spices you should have (Kristy has 10 basic spices she keeps on hand.)

Kristy’s story is truly a part of Stories That Inspire Us and I know that her story will inspire you! She shared her story as a young girl and how she fell into the diet trap and how she eventually ended the cycle of diets. It is her passion to teach her clients the many benefits of prep work and how and what to cook.
