Meet Andrea
Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here.
You’ve probably tried to eat “healthy” before — and maybe it worked for a little while — but it never lasted.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Andrea. I’m a registered dietitian and a certified behavior and mindset coach. I help adults stop overthinking food, lose fat in a healthy way, and feel confident creating the eating and lifestyle behaviors they value most— without guilt, strict rules, or trying to be perfect.
I’m also a wife to a wonderful, supportive husband. I’m an enneagram 2w3 and an adventurous introvert. I love listening to podcasts while I cook or exercise. My favorite desserts involve anything with dark chocolate. I love reading, traveling, and spending time outdoors
That's a little bit about me, but LETS REWIND FOR A SEC SO YOU CAN SEE WHERE THIS ALL STARTED…At Andrea Lindsay Nutrition, my mission is to help you feel free, clear, and confident with your eating and nutrition choices, so you can make progress that actually lasts.
Nutrition shouldn’t feel like a punishment. It should feel simple, doable, and a good fit for your life.
I use the science of nutrition and the science of mindset and behavior change to help you make changes that stick. I take big, confusing ideas and make them easy to understand. I give you practical, caring guidance so you can build healthy habits, a lifestyle you enjoy, and a better relationship with food and your body.
My Mission:
I’m not your average nutrition coach…
How I Got Here…
At the age of 14, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis—an autoimmune condition that turned my life upside down. As an active teen with a busy life ahead, like many, I tried every “fix” out there. Restrictive diets. Superfoods. Supplements. You name it.
Instead of healing, I ended up exhausted, undernourished, and disconnected from the joy of food.
01
It wasn’t until I discovered the science behind nutrition — and saw how it could support my body instead of fighting against it — that everything changed.
During my senior year in college, I met a dietitian at a local health fair. I didn’t talk to them that day, I simply observed them do their job and I was hooked. That quick health fair encounter shifted everything. I realized nutrition wasn’t about judgment or cutting out food groups—it was about empowerment, education, and feeling healthy again.
02
That experience in December 2012 changed my future career route to the point that I ended up pursuing a Master’s in Public Health Nutrition & Dietetics. It was in grad school that I finally learned how to really use evidence-based nutrition and behavior changes (thank you school of Public Health!) to support real health and lifestyle changes—including my own. After graduating in 2015, and passing my board in 2016, I became a Registered Dietitian.
03
Since then, I’ve worked in a variety of clinical and nutrition coaching settings with people from all walks of life.
04
After nearly a decade of helping hundreds of individuals navigate their nutrition, I noticed more and more that knowing what to do wasn’t the biggest struggle— people were coming to me asking for help with the how. How to start. How to stay consistent. How to not give up and continue following through. How to make health and nutrition decisions for life.
That’s what led me to get certified in mindset and behavior change coaching, and, with the incredible support of my husband, create Andrea Lindsay Nutrition LLC.
Now I offer virtual nutrition coaching, helping clients who are tired of hopping from diet to diet, program to program, “good on the week, off on the weekends”, create lasting nutrition and lifestyle changes they actually enjoy (no more bland veggies, please!).

What I Believe:
You don’t need more discipline — you need the right plan.
Guilt and shame don’t create change — understanding and self-efficacy do.
Your nutrition is highly individualized and influenced by several factors.
Health should feel freeing, not restrictive.
