your nutrition should match your lifestyle, not consume your life.
THE KLN APPROACH
we’re not just “macro coaches” & this is not just “another nutrition program”
We don’t do templated responses, meal plans, or canned emails.
You are a unique individual and we meet you where you are and help you find a sustainable approach to reaching and maintaining your aesthetic, performance, and health goals while prioritizing your relationship with food along the way.
1:1 flexible nutrition coaching
The one-size-fits-all approach and chronic dieting haven’t gotten you anywhere. We help you step away from restrictive yo-yo dieting and create truly sustainable results and long-term habits that work for you.
Working within a framework of tracking macros and focusing on sustainable behavior changes, we get to know you and your lifestyle and help you find a long-term approach to your goals.
LET’S TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT
it’s time for a personalized approach to nutrition that actually works
YOU’RE READY TO:
Step away from chronic dieting and restrictive food rules
Finally form a positive relationship with food and your body
Feel knowledgeable about your nutrition and how tracking macros can support your goals
Fuel your body appropriately and confidently — even in the busiest seasons of life
Have a kind and encouraging coach who really, truly sees you
“Physically I feel stronger…Emotionally I no longer feel like I’m in an adversarial relationship with my body.”
"Physically I feel stronger, leaner, and more comfortable in my body. Emotionally I no longer feel like I’m in an adversarial relationship with my body. I understand what it needs and how it communicates with me better.
I not only look and feel better physically but thinking about and planning my food no longer feels stressful. I lose weight without having to be hungry or frustrated. I gain strength more easily. I feel like I have waded through years of unhealthy relationships with food and my body and come out the other side as a happier healthier human. I am really, really grateful to Kate for that."

what is flexible nutrition?
Flexible Nutrition is the method of tracking your macronutrients to help you achieve your goals, whether those goals are targeted at losing body fat, changing body composition, improving performance, pursuing a healthier lifestyle, or getting out of the cycle of perpetual dieting.
Flexible Nutrition takes the "good" and "bad" out of the traditional diet mentality and allows you to see the progress you want while giving you the flexibility to eat the foods you love.
WHY A NUTRITION COACH
our nutrition is so much more than just the food we eaT.
Our relationship with food is just as emotional as it is physical.
As coaches, our purpose is not to tell you what to eat and leave you struggling on your own.
Because we’ve been where you are. We have almost a decade of experience as nutrition coaches (KLN started in 2015!) and we get how vulnerable this whole nutrition thing is.
With our knowledge, experience, and empathy, we'll provide you with the support you need to change old behaviors that have held you back and create new habits that you can stick to.

“I feel great, look awesome and can run again for the first time in 4 years while rocking my daily CrossFit workouts”
When I realized that my relationship with food was terrible, I finally decided to hire a nutrition coach. I thought I knew what macros were, but my macros only included chicken, broccoli, almonds, and protein powder. I was overweight and just plain unhappy.
Diana held my hand and encouraged me. My initial goal was just to get the weight off. Through consistency I was able to go from 268 pounds to around 212. I retained most of my strength and now I’m transitioning to learning how to fuel my activities. I feel great, look awesome and can run again for the first time in 4 years while rocking my daily CrossFit workouts. Most importantly, my years of on again off again dieting are over. I have learned how to have a balanced and sustainable relationship with food and encourage anyone looking to make a change to reach out to KLN!

Not at all. Some of our clients come to us with fat loss goals, and many don’t. Plenty of folks want to improve performance, support health as they age, build strength, establish consistency, improve their relationship with food, or simply feel better in their bodies without thoughts of food taking up so much mental space. Our job is to support your goals, whatever those may be
-
Tracking is one of many tools we use, but it’s never required, and the goal is that it is always a temporary tool — not something we have to do forever.
We work within a framework of tracking macros. We do utilize it in the beginning as a tool that can help us build more awareness around our eating habits, but we acknowledge that tracking macros is not the only tool out there either! While we typically start with tracking in our initial weeks together, we have many other strategies we can utilize to ensure that your nutrition is as supportive to you as possible. Our long term goal in every coaching relationship is that tracking is a tool you can use when needed, but not the end all be all or a tool you have to lean on forever.

Perfect! That’s where we shine! We coach real people with real lives, which means helping you stay consistent even when things aren’t routine (and recognizing that consistency in our habits doesn’t mean being perfect all the time.) Whether you're a frequent traveler, shift worker, or just juggling a lot, we build flexible strategies that fit your life and needs.

Each coach on the KLN team is incredibly knowledgable and confident, and we also all have different personal experiences and backgrounds. While we each have a specific type of ideal client, none of us work with just one type of client — we all work with a diverse spectrum of individuals with different goals, backgrounds, and lifestyles. You can read more about each coach on our KLN team here and get a feel for which coach may be the best fit for you.
-
We’re really intentional about how we wrap up the coaching process. Our goal is for you to move forward feeling confident in your habits, your progress, and your ability to maintain results long term (without needing to rely on external accountability or tracking your food forever).
When you’re ready to wrap up coaching, we put together a personalized Maintenance Roadmap that outlines your progress, highlights what’s worked, and gives you clear next steps. It includes your maintenance macro targets (if applicable), strategies for staying consistent without tracking, and guidance for navigating future goals or less-structured seasons.
