The Woman Behind Barely

As a mom of three, full-time professional, and MBA student at both Queen’s and Cornell, life rarely slows down. Between school drop-offs, work deadlines, and late-night assignments, I found myself constantly running on empty. I didn’t have the time—or energy—for restrictive diets or complicated health routines. What I needed was something simple, effective, and natural to help me feel more in control, especially when it came to managing cravings during the most chaotic parts of my day.

That’s why I created Barely Craving—a science-backed, single-ingredient solution made with beta-glucan, a natural fiber that helps you feel fuller longer, supports digestion, and makes better choices easier. This product was born out of necessity, but it quickly became my everyday secret weapon. My mission is to empower people like me—busy, driven, and juggling a lot—to take care of their health without adding more stress. With Barely Craving, you can simplify your routine and feel good, without overthinking it.

Join Me on This Journey

I created Barely Craving not just for myself but for anyone looking to simplify their health routine. Together, we can redefine what it means to take control—without the stress, the fads, or the overcomplicated fixes. Let’s embrace balance, confidence, and feeling good every day.

Because with Barely Craving, it’s not about barely getting by—it’s about barely needing anything else.
