About the Founder

---

Hi, I’m Kate and I’m an accredited Health and Wellbeing Coach with a specialization in Gut Health and Meal Planning. I’m originally from Australia and based in Amsterdam. 

Health and Wellbeing plays a pivotal role in our lives and I’m sure we have all heard our subconscious mind say to us:

• Why am I so tired?
• My skin looks dull
• I need to lose weight, which diet should I choose?
• I shouldn’t drink so much coffee. 
• Why do I feel so bloated?
• I always seem to have a headache
• I feel so overwhelmed and stressed.

Life is already full of so many complexities, (work, family, relationships, covid) let alone managing the fundamentals of our health and wellbeing. With all the resources available, it can be so overwhelming, that we just don’t know where to start or when we do, after a few months we tend to fall back into our old habits. And that’s where I, as your Health and Wellbeing coach can step in.

 
My role is to empower you to leverage your strengths and self-awareness in a structured way to make positive, sustainable behaviour changes. So that you can live your best life—with abundance, energy, ease, and connection!

It was through my trek to Mount Everest Base Camp, that I was able to clear my mind and really listened from within to find my true passion in health and wellbeing and caring for others. After 15 years in the corporate finance world and managing people, I was ready to take that leap of faith and try something that gave me energy, purpose and fulfilled my passions. 

Being a health and wellbeing coach didn’t come straight away, I actually started a side business called Fitness with Purpose. Its purpose was to run half marathons all around Europe with like minded friends to raise awareness for a worthy cause. Unfortunately after 8 half marathons and 8 causes, my journey came to an end with a knee injury. So again I went back to my Mount Everest mindset and thought about what else I could do to fulfil my passion in health and wellbeing.

That’s when coaching came to mind, to really understand the core components of health and wellbeing. Stress, sleep, physical activity, nutrition, mindfulness, mental health, gut health and so much more. Health and wellbeing really is made up of so many factors, it’s like opening up a Pandora's box as to what you can learn. So from there, I enrolled at the Well Global College and delved into the many categories that enriched my knowledge.

And here we are today, with the HealthStyle Factor being founded and ready to support you in living your best life!
