Liv Schmidt, is the founder of The Skinni Societe, a modern wellness community built on elegance, moderation, and real life. Before creating TSS, Liv tried nearly every diet promised to work – macros, meal plans, powders, programs, and rules that required food scales, spreadsheets, or a personality overhaul. None of it lasted. Not because she lacked discipline, but because she had taste, standards, and a life she wanted to enjoy.
Liv built The Skinni Societe from her 250 square-foot New York City apartment while working a full-time corporate job. There was no private chef, no luxury grocery overhauls, and no time to waste -just frozen vegetables, overpriced city groceries, long workdays, and the need for something that actually fit real women's lives. What began as a personal philosophy quickly became a community for women who wanted to feel confident, composed, and in control without treating wellness like a second career.
Liv's approach is simple but intentional. She doesn't count calories; she curates control. She doesn't meal prep; she makes thoughtful portion decisions. She believes consistency beats intensity, and that indulgence doesn't require excess. There are no cheat days because nothing is off-limits and nothing feels earned through deprivation.
Her philosophy centers on quality over quantity, awareness over obsession and routines that feel natural rather than forced. Movement is a privilege, food is meant to be enjoyed, and discipline should feel empowering – not punishing. Every day looks different, and that flexibility is the point.
Liv's Skinni Cookbook is not a diet manual. It's a lifestyle guide for women who want beautiful food, intentional portions, and rituals that elevate everyday life. The recipes reflect how Liv actually eats: real ingredients, small indulgence, curated, cravings, and meals that feel luxurious without being complicated.
This book is for women who are always on the go, who value elegance, who understand that restraint can be chic, and you know that confidence comes from consistency, not extremes.
Minimal effort. Maximum elegance. Always skinni.
