Erin Phillips and Korey Kealey - barlowbooks

Erin Phillips knows firsthand what hockey families are up against when they try to eat in a healthy way. She cooks for her husband, NHL superstar Chris Phillips, and for three very active children, all of whom spend most nights on the ice. She gets through the day with a fun and easy approach to food, but it’s grounded in careful study.

After studying human kinetics at the University of Ottawa, Erin became a registered nutritional consulting practitioner, specializing in sports nutrition. Today, Erin is devoted to demystifying the nutritional and hydration needs of hockey kids everywhere. She lives in Ottawa, Ontario, with her family.
