Catherine Richey - It All Starts at the Table

Catherine Richey - It All Starts at the Table Wellness coach & private chef helping women in midlife come back to themselves — one intentional meal, one honest conversation, one Wednesday at a time.

It all starts at the table.™ Becoming a Health and Life Coach was a natural next step for Catherine. Catherine holds a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and taught 1st grade for 9 years for Department of Defense Dependent Schools on US Military Bases in the Republic of Panama and in Puerto Rico. After her youngest of three children enrolled in school full-time, Catherine attended the Culin

ary Business Academy and launched a successful personal chef business, Lavish Cuisine, in 2012 in South Texas. Catherine’s desire to dig deeper into nutrition became a priority, and in August of 2024, she enrolled in both Harvard Medical School’s Executive Education program to study designing sustainable nutrition plans, and in The Health Coach Institute to receive certification to become a dual certified health and life coach. Catherine is excited to launch Modern Mindset Coaching and help guide her clients to set and achieve their goals.

Tonight, it all started at the table. 🌿

I hosted my very first Women’s Wednesdays dinner, and my heart is so full.

Seven women. One table. A plant-forward meal — Sicilian baked cod with cherry tomatoes and castelvetrano olives, white bean & kale skordalia, jewelled farro and forbidden black rice with roasted beets and pomegranate, roasted cauliflower with chickpea chermoula, roasted rainbow vegetables, and a frozen berry nice cream with 85% dark chocolate and walnuts for dessert. Oh — and a cold brew hibiscus tea that I think just became a signature. 🫖

“Real food, shared with others, is one of the most powerful steps toward wellness, and a longer, more joyful life.”

This is exactly what I built Women’s Wednesdays to be — not a class, not a lecture. Just women gathered around a beautiful table, eating food that loves them back, and talking about what really matters.

If you’d like to be the first to know when the next dinner is announced, send me a DM or drop your email below. Space is intentionally limited to 8 — and these seats fill up fast. 💛

Tonight Billy said he had a hankering for pizza.

We’ve both been making big changes lately and trying to be more intentional about what we eat—not dieting ourselves into misery, just being more mindful and choosy about what earns a place on the plate.

He went back into his office and I thought:

“I have sourdough starter in the fridge… pepperoni… cheese… let’s see what happens.”

So “Stella” (my/Laura’s sourdough starter discard) became pizza night.

Discard on a hot mini pizza stone. Bake. Passata. Pepperoni. Cheese. Back in the oven.

Was it perfect? Nope.

Did it satisfy the craving and create a little moment around the table? Absolutely.

Healthy eating isn’t perfection. Sometimes it’s just making pizza from sourdough discard and not ordering takeout.

Sneaky food marketing is out of control.

Tonight we just wanted easy tacos, so I scanned three taco shell boxes with my Yuka app…

The one labeled “Carb Advantage”?

🚫 Worst score.
🚫 More additives.
🚫 More processed.

The plain, basic corn shells?

✅ Best choice.

This is why people feel overwhelmed trying to eat “healthy.”

Because the packaging is selling you one thing…
and the ingredients are telling a completely different story.

I don’t get paid to say this—I just care.

Start flipping boxes over.
Start questioning labels.
Start choosing simpler.

Your body will thank you.
