Who Am I?

Hey, I’m Kristen! I’m a full-time nurse practitioner figuring out how to realistically live a healthy lifestyle and teaching others the same

The woman on the left is a highly trained medical professional with tons of knowledge who was struggling with her own health. The one on the right is figuring out how to make all that knowledge work in real life!!

I have struggled with my weight for my entire adult life. In 2020, as a brand new nurse practitioner, in the middle of a pandemic, I decided to figure this out (real-life style) for the last time.

So far, I’m down 40 pounds and continuing to learn every day!! I love teaching others what I have learned so far and adding friends who are on the same journey!

This Journey Isn’t Just Physical…

Whole wellness has more to it!!

As I began to take control of my physical health, I started to become more aware of other areas in my life where I was lacking discipline. The biggest one with the most impact - my spiritual walk!!

“Discipline begets discipline.” A friend of mine said this to me years ago and it stuck. Ideally, I would have gotten my spiritual discipline in order first, but, ya know, I’m not Jesus so I ain’t perfect.

Either way, Jesus loves me and leads me. And he cares about every part of me (and you!!) including my health. So, I lean on Him on this journey.

I’m here to share some of my daily walk, Bible study, and some encouragement.
