Sharon BowerS
Sharon (aka RDSharonB) is a passionate and dedicated Registered Dietitian based in Lancaster, CA. She stepped forward to join TNFT’s team of experts after working out with us as a “Teammate” for years. Sharon is on a mission to redefine wellness and help people break free from restrictive diet culture. Armed with an MS in Nutritional Science, she brings a wealth of knowledge to her practice, focusing on nutrition, intuitive eating, clinical nutrition, medical nutrition therapy, and sports nutrition.
Sharon's philosophy revolves around the belief that there is no "good" or "bad" food—only food. She encourages a guilt-free approach to eating and believes in making one actionable change at a time. Her life philosophy reflects a commitment to savoring the little things, living in the present, and, of course, enjoying dessert first.
An experienced RD since 2015, with a longer tenure as an educator, Sharon has worked with a diverse range of clients, from hospital patients to those seeking lifestyle changes for weight loss and disease management. Her approach leads to positive changes in lab values, outlook on health, and overall mindset.
Sharon's journey into nutrition began when her mother was diagnosed with cancer, sparking her interest in the link between nutrition and health. It inspired her to learn as much as she could about healthy eating before finally applying to an accredited program to make it her career. She grew up participating in activities like cheerleading, gymnastics, and dance. Now, she enjoys a variety of activities, including barre, Pilates, weight training, jogging, kickboxing, and cycling.
Sharon's message to those embarking on a wellness journey is to make small, consistent changes without aiming for perfection. She emphasizes that nutrition and fitness are a continuum, not an "all or nothing" endeavor. For those feeling stuck or unmotivated, Sharon encourages reaching out to a supportive community like TNFT for mutual motivation.
Sharon's self-care routine involves a mix of foam rolling, stretching, strength classes, and walking her miniature pinscher rescue pup Koa, soaking up the sun, and exploring nature.
