Soleil Watanabe MS, RD, LDN

Soleil's Bio

Soleil is a registered and licensed dietitian passionate about helping clients better understand their bodies so they can feel empowered in their health and in their lives. She believes food is more than nourishment, but also a powerful tool that shapes how we experience, think, and live, influencing our connection to culture, joy, each other, and everyday life.

Fascinated by how the color and variety of foods reflect the unique nutrients that help our bodies flourish, Soleil embraces an additive mindset that encourages balance, beauty, and abundance. She also takes a whole-person, mind-body approach, fostering both physical nourishment and a deeper connection within. With this perspective, she sees the body’s experiences as meaningful messages, helping clients uncover patterns so they can move with lasting clarity.

Soleil supports a range of concerns including gastrointestinal health, food sensitivities, PCOS, pregnancy and postpartum nutrition, autoimmune conditions, and child feeding and picky eating. She approaches client relationships as a partnership, creating a compassionate space where individuals feel truly seen. Together, they build sustainable habits that not only align with each person’s lifestyle but also foster profound confidence. Creativity is central to her approach, helping individuals of all ages, as well as families, reimagine nourishment in ways that feel personal, flexible, and genuinely enjoyable.

Soleil holds both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Nutrition from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Outside of work, she enjoys painting, crafting, going on walks, spending time with family and friends, and exploring her love for creativity and connection. She also loves bulldogs, music, all things colorful, and dreams of traveling the world to experience the beauty of different cultures!
