Cindy Ryan is a mom, daughter, energy teacher and spiritual guide. She works with large organizations and leadership teams, helping people read the energy dynamics inside a team and learn to regulate within it. She is a Usui Reiki Master who teaches all four levels, and she is in a two-year course of study to deepen her own practice. She is also a detachment therapist and divorce coach.

Her life has been her greatest teacher. Divorce, chronic pain, leaving a career she spent nearly two decades building and, most recently, beating breast cancer taught her that wisdom comes from living. Her work rests on one belief: mindfulness lives in how we choose to show up, moment by moment. Her two nearly grown boys have taught her the most about resilience and love.

In this episode, Cody sits down with registered dietitian Nancy, founder of Health and Home Long Island, for a conversation about simplifying nutrition in a world full of conflicting advice. Nancy shares her path from a decade in clinical dietetics and behavior-change coaching at Noom to running her own practice focused on women and families.

Together, Cody and Nancy dig into why diet culture creates so much fear and shame around eating, why the word "cheat day" needs to go, and how stress and mindset affect digestion and nutrition just as much as the food itself. Nancy breaks down her real-world philosophy on balance, why the food pyramid still holds up, and how she helps clients build sustainable habits by starting small instead of chasing a "perfect" meal plan.

The conversation also covers feeding kids without creating food anxiety, navigating picky eaters, and why families need clear personal values (not more social media noise) to guide their food choices. Cody and Nancy close by introducing The Kitchen Reset, their joint in-home service for Long Island families that combines Nancy's nutrition and kitchen-organization expertise with Cody's feng shui approach to create a kitchen environment that truly supports how a family eats and lives.

Key Topics Covered
Nancy's journey from clinical dietitian to behavior-change coach to private practice
Why "cheat day" language damages your relationship with food
The connection between stress, mindset, and digestion
Is the food pyramid still relevant? Nancy's take on modern nutrition guidelines
How to build sustainable eating habits without a "perfect" meal plan
Feeding kids: avoiding food-as-reward and reducing mealtime anxiety
Getting clear on your personal food values (budget, time, convenience, organic or not)
Why the kitchen is the emotional "heartbeat" of the home
Introducing The Kitchen Reset: a joint nutrition + feng shui home service

About Nancy
Nancy is a registered dietitian with over ten years of experience, including early work at the digital health company Noom. She now runs Health and Home Long Island, a private practice helping women and families simplify nutrition, reduce food-related stress, and build healthier kitchen environments.
