Kate’s wellness journey started when she was 8, but really took off when she turned 15, had a hernia surgery that triggered chronic headaches, lost her ability to read or focus, and forced her to drop out of normal high school and move to a special school to have her tests read aloud to her.

When western medicine couldn’t help her and told her it was all in her head, she was forced to become her own health detective.

At 15, she went cold turkey off of all gluten, dairy, soy, sugar, and meat, and started riding a stationary bike 2-5 hours a day. She recognized that low-level exercise was the only thing that would allow her to read and focus, so she spent hours a day on the bike reading and re-reading her textbooks and ended up graduating high school early from an exercise bike.

She started putting 2 and 2 together and realized that without circulation and sweating, she wasn’t getting enough oxygen to her brain and was holding onto toxins. Without it, she felt like every cell in her body was being poisoned.

Over the last 27 years, Kate’s pushed through horrific symptoms, tested countless diets and food plans, went through years and years of Lyme treatment, tried countless supplements, detoxes / cleanses, nearly every alternative treatment (acupuncture, rolfing, strain counterstrain, lymphatic drainage, cranial sacral, etc), every form of healing technology, and read every book she could get her hands about integrative and holistic wellness.

Her experiences have given her an amazing understanding of how things tie together, how one thing impacts another, and how 100’s of different variables impact well-being.

Becoming a certified Integrative Health Practitioner allowed Kate to reach another level of understanding the body and turn her experiences into action plans for clients. She worked for a while one-on-one with health coaching clients, but realized pretty quickly that in order to reach and help more people, she could combine her business knowledge and experience in creating health content to teach other health coaches how to build their businesses and spread root cause wellness to the world.
