About Me…..

Hola y bienvenidos to my blog! My name is Jessica Suwata, and I am a Certified Holistic Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. I currently reside in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina, with my amazing husband and our two adorable fur babies, Nubes and Oakley.

I was born in Lowell, Massachusetts, and raised in Medellín, Colombia, a city famously known as the “City of Eternal Spring” for its perfect weather. Growing up, I was fortunate to be surrounded by the vibrant flavors of homemade Colombian dishes, lovingly prepared by my mom. She always prioritized wholesome ingredients and nutrient-packed meals, though, I have to admit, traditional Colombian cuisine can be a little indulgent with its love of carbohydrates, fats, and sodium. Today, I still cherish those classic flavors but enjoy experimenting with healthier, nourishing twists to keep the heart of Colombian cooking alive in a balanced way.

In addition to my love for cooking, I’m also an avid runner. Running fuels my soul and keeps me constantly seeking out ways to fuel my body. Whether it’s crafting energy-packed meals or exploring new nutrition strategies, I’m always on the lookout for ways to keep my runs strong and vibrant. My passion lies in sharing the tools and inspiration to lead a healthy, energized life. One step and one delicious bite at a time.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope these recipes bring as much flavor and joy to your kitchen as they do to mine!
