Nutritionist & Bestselling Author
Rania Batayneh, MPH
Mom, author, nutritionist, wellness coach, and America’s Eating Strategist™ are just a few roles Rania plays! Rania Batayneh, MPH is a #1 Amazon bestselling author of The One One One Diet: The Simple 1:1:1 Formula for Fast and Sustained Weight Loss, and is regarded as an expert in the field of nutrition and wellness. With nearly 20 years of nutrition consulting, wellness coaching, and media experience, Rania believes that they key to long term results is teaching her clients “how” to eat, rather than to telling them “what” to eat. It has and will always be about changing lifestyles for lasting results.
Balance is Rania’s area of focus when she works one-on-one with her clients. She sees food as pleasure as well as fuel for our bodies. If you want to improve your energy, train for an endurance event, lose weight, build muscle, optimize your current diet, lower your cholesterol or blood pressure, and prevent onset of chronic disease states linked to exercise and nutrition, Rania can work with you to create an optimal eating strategy to help you reach your goals.
Approach:
When working with a client, Rania takes into account your lifestyle, food preferences, and activity levels to determine an effective eating strategy. She will create a unique plan based on your body’s needs and your personal goals. What works for your friend or partner will usually not work for you. This is clearly why diets do not create long-term success.
Education:
In addition to her Master’s Degree in Public Health Nutrition from the University of Michigan, School of Public Health, Rania has tied her Nutrition Consulting practice with Wellness Coaching. In 2007, Rania became a certified Wellness Coach through Wellcoaches and The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). Rania allows her clients to see their obstacles and barriers to achieving their personal goals in fitness, wellness and stress management and empowers them to change their lifestyles for lasting results.

I’m Kelly of Kelly Powers. I help busy people feel more confident in the kitchen while improving their relationship with food. More specifically, I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and the creator of Weeknight Dinners — a weekly meal plan program that helps people stress less about food. I also provide 1:1 coaching to help individuals and families find more ease and joy in cooking and eating.
I hope to support you on your health and wellness journey. Feel free to book a free consult call with me if you’re looking to change your life and improve your relationship with food. I can help.
In 2017, I was building a nutrition startup with a small team in San Francisco, working as the lead dietitian at a bay area residential eating disorder clinic, and counseling private clients.
The startup didn’t launch, the eating disorder clinic was weighing on me, and building a private practice was slow — it was time for a change.
So, I moved to Rome to get a graduate degree in Food Studies.
One night, at 2:04 am, to be exact, I had an idea. I had a busy day and ate dinner late. To save time, I made a meal in 15 minutes. It was amazing. As I laid in bed, it kept running through my mind — farro, roasted carrots and fennel, and za’atar chicken served with a simple lemon yogurt sauce and crushed almonds. It was quick, but if I had prepared a few items ahead of time, it would have taken 5 minutes.
At that moment, all the projects I’d previously worked on came together. I realized I needed to inspire people to cook.
Not in an extravagant way but in a practical manner that would foster love, compassion, and self-worth. One that would be sustainable and promote behavior change. One that would be empowering.
So in 2018, mid-way through my studies, I built a weekly meal plan program that offers users support and inspiration to change their dietary habits — it’s called Weeknight Dinners.
You see, I’ve always wanted to help others improve their relationship with food.
It’s not something that comes from a diet or food trends or even weight loss. It comes when you listen to your needs and nourish your body. When healthy eating and living well become a part of your everyday life.
It happens when you stop to smell the oranges at the market. When you take time to smell onions caramelizing on the stovetop. When you appreciate the variety that comes along with eating in season. Each of those moments not only better your relationship with food, they better your relationship with yourself.
I know it may seem like a lot, but I’m on a mission to change that — to shift perception around diet and consumption.
So, if you’re a busy independent woman. A woman who’s interested in eating well. A woman who doesn’t have an extra hour to spend in the kitchen every night.
Welcome.
Heal your relationship with yourself
Wellness culture promises health, happiness, and confidence — but often leaves us feeling like we’re never quite enough. The constant focus on fixing and shrinking our bodies pulls us further away from something more powerful: presence, self-trust, and care.
If you’ve ever felt like dieting or chasing weight loss only left you more confused, frustrated, or disconnected from yourself — you’re not alone.
At Embodied Health, we help you rewrite that story. Together, we’ll build a more peaceful relationship with food, movement, and your body.
This is about finding your way back to trust — and to yourself.
Learn to trust your body and acknowledge its power
The pursuit of thinness has pulled so many of us away from our own internal wisdom. Hunger, fullness, and cravings became things to fear, diminish, or control — when they were never the problem.
Working with the providers at Embodied Health means making peace with your body and (literally) learning to trust your gut again.
Let’s give wellness culture the middle finger — not just for ourselves, but for everyone who’s ever been made to feel broken by it.
You’re not the problem. You never were. And you don’t have to keep fighting your body to feel at home in it.
Who We Work With
We work with people who are often the go-to person in their world—therapists, creatives, entrepreneurs, caregivers, and high-achievers—who are outwardly capable but inwardly feeling stuck when it comes to food, movement, and body image.
You might resonate with our work if:
You’ve tried to “do health right,” but still feel anxious, disconnected, or ashamed around food
You’ve moved through therapy or self-development work and are ready to explore your relationship with your body on a deeper level
You’re tired of bouncing between control and burnout
You want a healing space that honors nuance, identity, and your whole story
You value a weight-inclusive, anti-diet, trauma-informed approach to care
You don’t have to shrink, perform, or perfect your way into healing. We meet you exactly where you are—with curiosity and care
