HI, I’M KATE.

 

A chocolate-loving, coffee-drinking, weight-lifting Intuitive Eating, Accredited Practicing Dietitian, Nutritionist, Body Image Coach and the boss lady here at Firefly Nutrition.

 

I'm happiest at the beach or in the bush where I feel most connected to my body. I'm a mumma bear to 2 humans a teen and a tween god help me, a Kelpie (Indie- my soul dog) and a ginger cat (Leo Sunshine). I'm lucky enough to have an incredible husband that knows how to push all my buttons, while simutaneously being my absolute rock. Oh and I love people and their stories which is really what has led me here. 

 

I have a unique perspective of what it means to heal your relationship with food and body because I've lived it.

I spent way too many decades battling with my weight and self-worth.

 

Years and years of my life were sacrificed to Weight Watchers, 12wbt, Intermittent Fasting, or whatever else promised me those magical results.

 

It wasn't until my baby girl was born 11 years ago that I decided I had to heal for her. If I didn't get off the body-loathing train, instinctively, I knew I would pass it on to her. And so my adventure began. My goodness, what a ride it has been.

 

Through Intuitive Eating and HAES frameworks, I found that little spark inside again and I'd love to support you in doing the same.

My life completely changed when I got myself a coach.

 

I didn’t know what health coaching was, but it flipped my world upside down.

 

I needed to share the magic and show people a different way to look after themselves, so my health coaching business (called Wonder Woman Method) was born.

It taught me that maybe it wasn’t willpower I needed to stop reaching for the chips.

 

 

It taught me that maybe I didn’t need to do back-to-back spin classes to get benefits from exercise.

 

 

It taught me it wasn’t another meal plan, cutting out of whole food groups, or the latest calorie tracking app I needed.

It taught me that truly caring for your body doesn’t look the same for you as it does for me, which is why a one-size-fits-all approach rarely works for anyone.

 

 

It taught me that maybe shrinking my body wasn’t the answer to improving the way I felt about it.
