"Performance through Intuitive Eating and Mindfulness"

06/20/2026

Still thinking about the 18th ASPDA Annual Conference✨

Such a great few days with amazing speakers, lots of learning, and the chance to catch up with people I’ve met before while also meeting so many new faces in sports nutrition 🙌

The keynote talk was especially inspiring and really stayed with me. One topic that came up again and again across different lectures was the impact of stress — and how much it can influence how we approach and manage nutrition with athletes.

These events always remind me how important it is to stay connected, keep learning, and share ideas.

A special mention to the ASPDA President who is now stepping down — thank you for everything you’ve done for the organisation, your impact has been huge 💙

Already looking forward to the next one!

Biggest mistake in youth sports?

Treating kids like mini pros.

Young athletes need:
✔️ 3 meals + 2–3 snacks
✔️ Hydration before they’re thirsty
✔️ Recovery nutrition within an hour
✔️ Sleep
✔️ Permission to eat enough

They don’t need:
❌ Energy drinks
❌ Weight pressure
❌Random supplements

Performance improves when health comes first.

If you’re a parent or coach, your words around food matter more than you think.

Save this for the season ahead.
Share with a coach who needs to see it.

Fuel your game with the right snacks! 💪

When choosing between high-carb and high-protein snacks, it’s all about timing. 🏃‍♂️🍞

⚡ High-Carb snacks (think bananas, granola bars) give you that energy boost for endurance. Perfect for long training sessions or before competitions!

💥 High-Protein snacks (like Greek yogurt, protein bars) help with muscle repair and growth, keeping you strong and ready for the next round.

Whether you need energy or recovery, balance it out and snack smart! 🥙

Lucie Charbonnier came a long way since doctors discovered something was wrong with one of her kidneys in Fall 2022.
