Hi! I'm Atifah

Registered Dietitian - Holistic Cancer Support Nutritionist - Health Coach

 Welcome to Divine and Nourished! And here’s my journey…

10 years ago, I discovered my passion for nutrition and all things healing and have been on a journey to help others ever since.

My endeavors started me out in the raw food and vegan food space. I had attended a health institute where I saw first hand diseases including cancer being addressed through nutrition. This greatly intrigued me. Can diet and lifestyle truly change health outcomes? 

I eventually branched out in search of a formal education in nutrition and becoming a Dietitian was what I felt called to do. Diving deep into how the body works, the impact of nutrients on our wellbeing and how to bring this learning to others was so foundational for me.

But this wasn’t enough. Becoming a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist was a milestone that my heart leapt for but I felt there was more…

I began to learn about functional nutrition and holistic health – the approach of considering the whole person and all their body systems as a vital component in healing and thriving in health. Holistic healing looks beyond the symptoms and seeks to heal the entire person so that you feel like your best self. Every person deserves to be disease-free, at their optimal weight and simply feel great in their own skin.

This made complete sense to me and I have felt called to a subgroup that has been the least helped in the space of diet and lifestyle – cancer patients. It bothered me to see cancer patients feeling helpless after receiving a cancer diagnosis, then left without the resources to help their bodies heal beyond the standard chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. While doctors are experts in medicine, cancer treatment is missing the vital part nutrition and lifestyle plays in your well-being and journey to healing.

So here we are at Divine and Nourished, my passion project with the sole desire to bring healing to cancer patients around the world.

So Welcome! Stay awhile and connect. I would love to have a chat 🙂
