Hi, I’m Laura — Here to help you eat well, feel strong, and stop the all-or-nothing cycle.
I’ve been in your shoes — second-guessing every choice, and feeling disconnected from my own body.
That’s exactly why I created this space: a safe, judgment-free zone for women like us to explore a new way of thinking about food, health, and ourselves.
You’re in the right place, and I’m truly so happy you’re here.
Laura Hoffman
Health & Mindset Coach | Educator | Author | Speaker
I’m a health and wellness coach, educator, and author passionate about helping women stop dieting and start living fully. I founded Ignite with Laura to help people shift their relationship with food, release restrictive habits, and reconnect with joy, intuition, and nourishment.
With Master’s degrees in both Psychology and Food Studies, I bring a unique mind-body approach to wellness. I’ve trained extensively in life coaching, nutrition, culinary arts, and subconscious transformation — including over twenty certifications from Nutritious Life, Genius Unlocked, and iPEC. I’m also a certified yoga instructor, NLP Practitioner and plant based chef.
I am the author of Savor: Quit dieting, relax about food and eat healthy happily and have taught cooking and nutrition throughout the NYC public school system and as an adjunct professor at NYU, about food, culture, and health.
