ABOUT ME
Hello and WELCOME! I'm so glad you're here! If you're looking for a nutritious snack, nutrition coaching, or new recipes, you've come to the right place!
My name is Murphy Brennan and I am a first year Master in Food Science and Nutrition student at Colorado State University. I graduated in 2021 from UNC Chapel Hill (go Heels!) where I double-majored in Exercise and Sport Science and Psychology, and minored in Spanish for the Medical Professions. After my two-year M.S. program at CSU, I will complete my Dietetic Internship (aka clinical rotations) and then sit for the RD exam to hopefully become a registered dietitan!
I started Mindfully Murphy (previously Cut The C.R.A.P) when I gave up processed foods for Lent 3 years ago, but it's really turned into something totally new and different. It has become a place of transformation and reflection of my recovery process from eating disorders-- breaking the cycle that has dictated my life for the past 8 years. I want to be honest and open with everyone so we can start conversation about rocky relationships with food! As for themes you'll see in my captions and other posts, I'm a huge proponent for breaking down toxic diet culture, balance, and intuitive eating (listening to your body!).
