My 25 plus years of experience as a Registered Dietitian may seem like enough of a reason to embrace the field of health coaching.  I  genuinely enjoy helping men, women and children of all ages achieve their health goals by optimizing the quality of the foods they eat. My passion deepened over the past 8 years as I embarked upon a personal quest to solve my own digestive challenges as well as solve the mystery  of a close family member's auto-immune disorder. Both mine and my daughter's health and digestive issues greatly improved as we started listening to our bodies, feeding them quality foods and addressing the sources of stress in our lives.  My heart aches to see so many dear souls today struggling with their health and quality of life.   My passion going forward is two fold. I have become a Health Coach to help people stuck in negative habit loops break free by providing healthy strategies, accountability and encouragement!  Additionally, my passion is to help clients discover nutrition & lifestyle approaches to their struggles with: low energy, obesity, poorly controlled diabetes, gluten sensitivity, histamine intolerance and gut healing . - Karrie Benda MS,RD, Health & Life Coach
