I'm Natalie Johnson, founder of Iron Roots Nutrition, LLC and a Texas native who discovered my passion for nutrition after adopting a plant-based lifestyle over 15 years ago. I've always loved staying active—whether through gymnastics, figure skating, hiking, soccer, tennis, or weightlifting—and I’m driven by challenge. Becoming a Registered Dietitian (RD) allowed me to live my values and help others experience the benefits of plant-based eating in a way that fits their lives.
I earned my BS in Nutrition from UT Austin (hook 'em horns!) and completed my supervised practice at Meredith College in Raleigh, NC. Since becoming an RD, I’ve focused on helping individuals optimize their health and well-being through plant-based nutrition.
Through Iron Roots Nutrition, LLC, I help clients align their nutrition with their goals and values—whether they’re improving energy, supporting recovery, or exploring a plant-based lifestyle.
Outside of work, I love being in nature, immersing myself in music, traveling, eating spicy food, and discovering new cultures through cuisine. I bring that same curiosity and energy into helping clients explore new ways to thrive.
"I help active, plant-curious clients build strength and confidence through practical, personalized nutrition. My approach is collaborative, empowering, and rooted in science—but also realistic and flexible. I bring warmth, curiosity, and a light-hearted touch to every session, and I support progress at your pace while helping you overcome real-life barriers with sustainable strategies."
