TESTIMONIALS

"Kristen encouraged me to work on alternatives to move away from the foods and behaviors that were harming me rather than healing me. She also encouraged me to dive into and define who I was as a person and to think about the reasons why I might not be able to obtain my goals, overcome obstacles and repeatedly returning to habits that weren't healthy."

-Audrey S.
"When I first began working with Kristen I was at “rock bottom” in terms of my digestive issues. I explained to her that I was concerned a serious health condition was causing my consistent stomach pain and irregular bowel movements. She helped me peel back other areas of my life that were ultimately contributing to my issues in ways I hadn’t considered. My sleep schedule was off, and I was waking up in the middle of the night feeling unrested, work stress was getting the best of me and unhealthy relationships in my life were talking too much of my energy. She helped me focus on improving those areas in addition to finding a healthy morning routine that supports my gut and by the
end of our time together my stomach pains were a distant memory. Now if I ever feel anything uncomfortable in my stomach, I have the tools to pinpoint exactly what is causing it. I am so incredibly grateful for this experience with Kristen and I am happy to recommend working with Kristen to everyone I talk to."

- Kelly M.
"I started working with Kristen as my coach because I wanted to lose 10-15 pounds of weight and keep it off, learn how to better manage my blood sugar and work on my digestion. Kristen is knowledgeable about nutrition, how to go gluten free and dairy free, and she helped me figure out ways to prep and prepare for success. I am now better at "balancing my food choices', I have eliminated "aggravating foods" that compromise my digestion, and I am making better food choices overall to keep my weight off and lower inflammation in my body."

-Lee Anne P.
If you want to improve areas of your life, coaching may be a game changer for you. Kristen is very easy to talk to and I felt from day one that I have known her for years! Kristen can work with you on your goals and a plan of action that can make a difference in your daily life………….it did for me!
