You don’t need more recipes or rules. You need a system that doesn’t collapse when you do.

At The Counter, we help you trade food noise and fantasy meal plans for resilient self-care habits and a kitchen practice that survives your worst week.

The Counter is a transformative, experiential learning community that shifts mindsets and solidifies new habits.

No fluffy advice. Not a time-consuming course. No shame for not having it figured out and definitely not another set of nutrition rules to follow. Just sustainable habits rooted in your real life.

How The Counter Works

Our process is a sanctuary for the part of you that’s exhausted by trying to do it all “right”. Bite-sized learning playlists help you unlock deeper calm, clarity and consistency in just 5 -15 minutes a day.

Choose your Path

With newfound clarity, you’ll set a gentle 3-month goal: use our Life Wheel tool to identify where support is msost needed, then choose one of three learning pathways with founder and culinary coach Micole on a welcome call.

Clear the Noise

You’ll begin with our core track, a 6-part video series: this playlist of lessons, somatic touchpoints and reflection prompts is designed to break shame spirals and reveal the perfectionism, burnout and food noise hijacking your plate.

Create your System

Bring it all together with done-for-you templates:
design a simple, repeatable weekly system for self-care, nourishing meals & sustainable health habits, shaped by your learning pathway and tailored to your real life.

Cultivate Consistency

Once your system is set, go deeper in community: ongoing coaching, somatic practices and a community of likeminded humans hat help you follow through. Refine, fill in the gaps and keep it working for every season of you.

Meet Micole, founder of The Counter—a chef, coach, and neurodivergent wellness advocate redefining nourishment for real life.

I’ve been where you are.

Hi! I’m Micole, The Counter founder…

I didn’t always feel at ease in my kitchen or in my body: unaware of how my ADHD, anxiety, and CPTSD turned simple daily tasks and goals into exhausting mental hurdles and impossible challenges, I constantly carried the weight of falling short.

After graduating from culinary school and coaching dozens of 1:1 clients through their own mealtime struggles, I realized that what keeps us stuck in cycles of burnout, food noise, shame, and overwhelm isn’t a lack of skill.

It’s self-compassion. Room for our humanity. A flow that honors your feelings and still keeps you fed.

So I built The Counter for all of us who feel deeply, overthink everything, and keep waiting for life to slow down before we start. Self-care isn’t born from trying harder. Nourishment doesn’t start with more recipes. Sustainable ease begins the moment you let life lead, and let everything else follow.
