I WILL TEACH YOU TO EFFORTLESSLY INTEGRATE HEALTH AND FITNESS INTO YOUR LIFE, WHILE LIVING IT BOLDLY AND FEARLESSLY.

Hi! I am Kate. I walk the walk and I talk the talk. I’ve been living a self-proclaimed “effortlessly” fit and healthy lifestyle for the last decade. This blog has been around since 2005 and serves as an archive for my journey.

I’ve been biohacking since 2014. I believe we need a balance of modern medicine and holistic healing to thrive in our world today.

I do NOT diet, count calories, watch my macros, nor do I beat myself up if I don’t workout daily. Eating well, cooking nutritious and delicious meals, and exercise is as second nature to me as brushing my teeth. How? I focussed on habits and lifestyle instead of outcomes. Wellness shouldn’t be hard!
