Summary 

I’ve been a weight loss coach for over a decade. Which means I’ve shared my story of overcoming disordered eating. I’ve shared the story of healing my metabolism. I’ve shared the story of growing up dancing and battling with body image. 

What I haven’t shared (at least not fully) is my 2-decade-long health journey. 

For a long time I thought no one would be interested. I was told by business coaches of my past that...

Listen In  

Summary 

 I have a confession to make. My name is Kat, I am a gut health coach, and I just got diagnosed with 2 major gut problems: H Pylori and SIBO.

Is there part of me that's embarrassed? Sure. The perfectionist in me doesn't want to admit that as a health coach I still have health problems. 

But the truth is, I have 20 years of damage to make up for. 

Just to give you a little background on me.

Summary 

This is it folks... the day you've all been waiting for... the day that I, Kat Spangler, share how to get. slim. quick.

Now if you know me at all, you know this is a very big divergence from my usual mission.

I am NOT a 'quick fix' weight loss coach. Crash dieting to drop a few fast pounds is unsustainable, often unhealthy, and usually causes more weight gain than weight loss in the long run. 

BUT... there is one tiny exception to this rule:

Quickly reducing bloating.

Episode 122: Starch... Superfood or Super Villain?

Oct 05, 2021

Listen In

Summary

When you hear the word starch, what do you think of? Pasta, bread, white rice? Weight gain? Blood sugar spikes?

Starch has gotten a bad rap, and in some instances for good reason. The starch in processed carbs breaks down into glucose and does spike blood sugar and contributes to diseases like diabetes and obesity.
