Meet Your Coach
I'm your wellness coach, Kristen. I studied Psychology at the College of Charleston, and Occupational Therapy at the Medical University of South Carolina. I am also a certified Autoimmune Health Coach. Like many people, I have struggled with my health.
The story of my journey to wellness started in my mid 20's, when I had a sudden onset of gastrointestinal problems followed by unexplained weight loss, anxiety, fatigue, and thinning hair. The symptoms continued to worsen, and I began to develop food sensitivities that filled every meal with worry and stress. And let me tell you, I LOVE to eat!
I tried diets, doctors, pills, and everything in between. But nothing seemed to work. Until I found the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP). I changed my relationship with food, exercise, stress, and sleep, and I can finally say that I feel GOOD again! These lifestyle modifications changed my life, and I wanted to help others do the same. So I became a certified AIP coach, and studied more about how nutrition, stress, sleep, physical activity, and social interactions play a role in our health and wellness. I set out to help those with similar struggles feel well again, and let them know they’re not alone.
With my training and background in healthcare, I find myself in a perfect position to help others avoid the pitfalls and headaches of navigating the concepts of wellness alone. I'm here to partner with you to help you tackle each area of your life, and find the best solutions to living your life to the fullest. Though I specialize in working with clients with autoimmune or chronic illness, we are all seeking the same outcome, and all are welcome! Sometimes all we need is someone to talk to. :)
