Hi, I’m Diane.
Artist, Entrepreneur, Business Coach, & Author.
Currently, most of my time is dedicated to my businesses: Diane Ceramics (which I document daily via Instagram), Balanced Bites Wholesome Foods, and 1:1 and small group business coaching (contact me). I also can be found teaching ceramics classes locally at Clay By the Bay in San Francisco or virtually via Zoom.
From the time I was in college I was running businesses, whether as a student, as a side hustle, or as a full time job. Being both a business owner and a creator is part of my fabric – and I love teaching and coaching others on their journey.
For the past decade, I have been known as a multiple New York Times bestselling *diet* book author and former co-host of an 8-year, top 20 health podcast (The Balanced Bites Podcast), but after deep thought and introspection, I’ve made a shift away from that work as an act of self-care.
I am no longer focused on sharing health or nutrition advice in publications or via social media.
That said, I will always love and share food from a culinary and taste perspective – and I created and founded Balanced Bites with an aim to make life easier and tastier through our amazing products (organic spice blends, olive-oil based dressings, frozen meals, and more). Our customers are some of the best, coolest, and nicest folks around.
More about me… I’m originally from the east coast (NJ) and live in Marin County, CA – just north of San Francisco with my husband @fullbodyfix. I’m a lefty, enneagram 8, INTJ, and I LOVE big, well-made salads as much as I love a perfectly cooked steak and some French fries.
