ABOUT MIRANDA – THE HERBY EATER
Oh hey, you. You look downright radiant today. Since I can’t pop through the screen to say it in person, consider this your cue to go give yourself a compliment in the mirror, from me.
I’m honestly so thrilled (and a little misty-eyed) that you’re here. I don’t think it’s an accident you found your way to this corner of the internet. Whether you’ve been riding the plant-based wave for years or are just dipping your toes in for the weekend, you belong here. Truly, I mean that deep to my core.
My own plant-powered story began at nineteen, as a college freshman with a deeply un-glamorous gut situation (if you know, I’m so sorry you know). I was staring down the prospect of lifelong medications when, for the first time, I asked myself:
What do I want my health — my whole life — to actually feel like?
A dramatic question for a nineteen-year-old, I know. Especially when most of my friends were busy deciding which necklace worked best with their little black dress for that date with the cute guy from class.
But that one question rerouted everything.
Instead of resigning myself to prescriptions + side effects, I got curious. I started learning how to truly nourish myself with vibrant, real food. This was right when the hey day of Facebook Groups and Google was coming alive, and I was realizing I had an arsenal of intelligent savvy humans to lean on for answers. Slowly, everything shifted. my health, my energy, my mindset.
That beautiful question changed everything.
And while my days were spent building a career in the music industry (supporting artists, building strategies, helping grow a scrappy startup into something real) my nights were spent falling in love with cooking. Perfecting recipes. Playing. Feeding people.
In 2021, that quiet passion turned into something bigger when I was invited to cook as the chef for an author’s retreat in Scotland. (Yes, it was just as magical as it sounds…cue me snapping photos of Stirling Castle out The Wallace Tower!)
By the end of 2024, what started as a side obsession had bloomed into an undeniable calling. I realized as much as I adored the music world, my real heartbeat was here: helping people find joy, confidence, and ease in feeding themselves well.
And that’s how The Herby Eater — or simply, Herby — was born.
Herby is about more than food. It’s about color, curiosity, and coming alive at the table. It’s about meals that taste incredible and make you feel incredible. It’s about claiming space (literally and figuratively) for the fullest, most vibrant version of yourself.
So grab a snack (for a snack aka YOU), wander around a local market or grocery store, and try something new. Whether you’re here for a bomb new recipe, a health-forward adventure, or just a gentle reminder that you deserve to feel freaking amazing, you’re in the right place. 🤍
