NUANCED NUTRITION & MAKEUP
C.H.N.C (Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant ™) & Founder of Altruition
KARISSA GIBSON, FOUNDER OF ALTRUITION
Supporting your mental health & skin health with nutrition, while being anchored in science & fostering creativity; that is Altruition. Altruition's foundation is built on the desire to provide authentic interactions that create a safe place for vulnerability & growth. Providing unequivocal support nutritionally, mentally & creatively is what I aim to achieve through my work at Altruition.
I am the type of person who is always seeking nuances; subtle differences in or shades of meaning & expression. As a young adult, I had a passion for psychology and sociology & was always intrigued by understanding humans as complex wholes, as well as how we interact with the world around us. This led me to pursue & complete a Bachelor of Arts in Behavioral Science at Ambrose University in 2017. In the midst of receiving my Bachelors, my interests expanded & shifted towards a more creative route & I obtained a Diploma in Makeup with an ITEC Level 2 Certificate in Make-up from the Artists Within Makeup Academy in 2016. In 2021, my interests progressed further to pursue more education around nutrition and I became Certified in Holistic Nutrition through the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition.
I recently had some mental and physical health concerns occur in my life & it was though those experiences that I became aware of the impact nutrition has on our body. This lead me to reflect on my life experiences & discover how everything from my multifaceted background were connected. At the core of my being there is a desire to work with others to achieve their goals while creating a space where people can feel understood & heard. I was able to make multiple connections between nutrition & mental health, as well as makeup application & mental health. Makeup can be connected to skin health & skin health can be connected with both nutrition & mental health. I am excited to create a unique space where makeup can be more than a tool to cover up imperfections but rather a means for supporting our mental health!
