I believe that when you pull up your website, you should get that excited, butterflies in your stomach, omg, I can’t believe I actually created this business feeling because you are so dang proud of it.
You can’t wait to share your website link with anyone who will listen because you finally feel like your business has an online home that feels like YOU.
It all started when I found myself totally hooked on designing my own website and all the fun marketing stuff that came with it.
I mean, I should’ve been knee-deep in nutrition plans, but there I was, spending hours tweaking my website just for kicks. Who knew?
Soon enough, people started noticing and asking, “Hey, can you help me with mine?” And then, it all sort of snowballed and kept growing.
Helping fellow weight-inclusive private practice peeps build websites that don’t just look pretty but actually mean something.
Because I believe that your online presence should feel as welcoming as you are.
When we team up, you’re not just getting a website; you’re getting someone who gets you—like, really gets you.
I know what it’s like to want your website to do more than just sit there looking good. It should be out there working its magic, connecting with your clients, and making your life easier.
So, if you’re ready to create a space that screams “this is me” and makes your clients feel seen before they even meet you, I’m your go-to.
Together, we’ll bring your vision to life, step by step, without any of the tech headaches. Trust me, I’ve got you covered.
It probably sounds unusual, I know. But, I wanted a name that was unique and that meant something to me. I know that ‘smushing’ two names together isn’t necessarily revolutionary, but it’s what felt right to me.
So, you guessed it, ‘Declet’ is a mashup of my children’s names.
I understand that the appearance and composition of a brand and website can have an immense impact on how potential clients perceive you and your business, so I am committed to creating brands and websites that reflect our clients’ unique brand identity while conveying the important message that they value all body sizes.
As an eating disorder survivor and a Dietitian who practices from a weight-inclusive lens, I am committed to providing working with practitioners in private practice who practice from a weight-inclusive approach.
I will always be honest and transparent with potential clients and clients alike. This also means business & marketing is ethical, we don’t lie or stretch the truth… not for our own business, not for our clients.
I want my clients to feel at ease and not overwhelmed with any solutions we create, so I always like to ask myself, “What if it were easy?” or “What if it were simple?” before building something to ensure that.
We all know that life’s too short!
Part of my business philosophy is that if it’s not a heck freaking yes, it’s a then it's a heck no.
