Fuel Her — A Beginner's Guide to Food, Energy & Your Body

A note from Courtney

I spent 24 years at war with my body.
This guide is everything I wish I'd had.

I was a varsity soccer player, a straight-A student, a girl who looked like she had it all together. But behind the scenes, I was silently restricting, purging, and obsessing — convinced my body was the enemy and food was something to be managed, controlled, or earned.

For 24 years I carried that. Until one night in 2018, I overheard my daughters talking about their bodies the way I'd always talked about mine. And something in me broke open.

I realized I had been teaching them — without a single word — that their worth was tied to how they looked. I knew in that moment that I had to learn a different way. And then I had to teach it.

Fuel Her is that different way. It's not a diet plan. It's not a meal prep guide. It's the real education about energy, fueling, and body trust that I desperately needed at your daughter's age — and that most athletes and parents have never been given.

If you're ready to break the cycle, this is where it starts.

What's inside

7 Chapters That Change Everything

Each chapter builds on the last — from understanding your energy, to healing your relationship with food, to giving your daughter (and yourself) practical tools she can actually use.

Chapter 1

The Energy Crisis Nobody's Talking About

Learn what energy availability actually means, why 1 in 3 high school female athletes are underfueling, and the difference between eating enough calories and fueling for performance.

Chapter 2

Signs Your Athlete Is Running on Empty

A practical breakdown of the physical, emotional, and performance warning signs — for both athletes AND parents — so you can recognize what's really going on.

Chapter 3

Food Is Not the Enemy — Fuel Is the Foundation

The truth about carbs, protein, and fat that diet culture got wrong. Reframe food from something to fear into something that gives your athlete her power back.

Chapter 4

Listening to Your Body (And Actually Trusting It)

Hunger and fullness aren't as obvious as they seem when you've been ignoring them. This chapter teaches athletes to reconnect — with a simple practice they can use every day.

Chapter 5

The Emotional Side of Eating

Emotional eating. Hunger fear. Food guilt. The inner critic. This chapter names the things most athletes are carrying silently — and starts to untangle them.

Chapter 6

Your Emotional Toolkit

Box breathing. Body scans. Movement as medicine. 10 journal prompts. Practical, proven tools your athlete can use in the moment — not just in theory.

Chapter 7

A Note for Parents: How to Be Her Biggest Ally

The exact words to use (and avoid), how to start the conversation, and what your athlete actually needs to hear from you. This chapter alone is worth the price of the guide.

About the author

Hi, I'm Courtney

I'm a certified wellness and nutrition coach, founder of The SHIFT Project, and a mom of three daughters. My approach to fueling was shaped the hard way — 24 years of disordered eating, two decades of believing my worth was tied to my body.

In 2018, I finally got help, did the work, and found my way to a completely different relationship with food and my body. Then I became obsessed with teaching other women and girls what I'd learned.

I created the Fueled framework because the conventional nutrition conversation wasn't built for teen female athletes. It was built for weight loss. These girls deserve something better — an education that actually makes sense of how their bodies work and what they need to perform, feel good, and thrive.

This guide is that education in your hands, right now.
