About The Peachy Pantry

---

 My name is Georgia Kurtz- Certified Functional Medicine Nutritionist and ACSM- EP! I am so blessed to serve Williamson County and encourage our community to steward our bodies well for our good and God's glory! Growing up in a family of 6 athletes with no dishwasher and hungry bellies to feed, you could say that alone was a full-time job. Naturally, I found myself in the kitchen, more often than not, so learning to cook was an inevitable skill I acquired. From a young age, I also remember my mom giving me tasks to organize and clean the house; not only did it make her life easier, but I genuinely enjoyed the sweet and satisfying process of making a space more practical. It wasn't until high school when I went through my own health struggles, I became incredibly passionate about healing the body and restoring it back to balance by giving it the bio-individual support through meals, movement, and mindset. I graduated from Liberty University with a B.S. in Exercise Science: Strength and Conditioning and moved to Franklin, TN in November 2022.  

 Nearly 8 years of jumping through the medical field loopholes and never getting answers. Illness after illness, viruses, bacterial infections, 2 concussions, a traumatic tooth procedure, telangiectasia, food allergies, mold toxicity, IBS/ leaky gut, hormonal imbalances... you name it, I've probably experienced it. That's why I am so passionate about addressing the root cause of any illness and disease. It's not just about eating "clean" or exercising enough, It's about the quality of your life, your mental health, and your longevity. If you aren't healthy mentally and spiritually, it will manifest itself into physical problems. Our bodies are resilient, but we have to be willing to listen and treat them as God intended us to: with care! 

It'd been a year since I graduated, and I was scratching my head trying to figure out how I wanted to merry my love for people and health in a way that was productive, proactive, and practical! While there are well-intentioned people in the social media world, I didn't want to start another online health coaching business.  I find social media can be incredibly overwhelming and draining. You can spend hours on it saving recipes and ideas. At the end of the day, you are more exhausted, and your lifestyle isn't any different from the day before. I wanted to start something that gave families a jumpstart into actually making productive and practical changes: a boots on the ground, hands-on approach if you will. I was in the shower when the Lord gave me the idea to start The Peachy Pantry. I guess they were right when they said the best ideas come to you in the shower!
