a bit about us

11+ years helping clients break free from all-or-nothing dieting and build progress they can actually maintain.

We’re not just macro coaches, and this is not just another nutrition program.

Our team brings specialized knowledge in areas from strength and conditioning to women’s health, pre- and post-natal nutrition, menopause, nutrition for ADHD, and behavior change.

While we may give you macro targets, we’re far more focused on helping you create habits you can practice consistently, in order to create progress you can maintain long term.

We believe coaching works best when It’s a team effort.

We don’t coach at you… we coach with you. You probably already know much of what you "need” to do to get to your goals, we’re here to help you actually do those things consistently. We build trust from day one, lead with curiosity, and make sure you feel supported (not judged).

Why kln Feels Different From Day One

  • You get a whole team in your corner.

    We’re a collaborative team of experienced coaches who genuinely care about our clients. We’re always sharing ideas, refining our coaching skills, and learning from each other — so you’re not just getting one coach; you’ve got the knowledge, support, and brainpower of our whole team behind you.

  • You’re Not Just a Set of Numbers

    You’re not handed macro targets or cookie-cutter meal plans and left to figure things out on your own. We build your coaching experience around your lifestyle, goals, dieting history, and unique needs. Every check-in response is individualized because you're not a set of macros; you’re a human.

  • We set you up for success beyond our time together.

    We don’t want you to need a coach or track your food forever. When you off-board you get a full Maintenance Roadmap detailing what strategies best supported you and how to move forward with the skills and tools to navigate your nutrition on your own terms - now and when goals change in the future.

  • We make sure science meets strategy.

    Our coaching is evidence-led, meaning it’s rooted in behavior change and nutrition science… but still focused on you and your needs. We don’t just tell you what to eat, we help you understand the “why” behind all we’re working on together.

Ready to see what coaching could look like for you?

If you’re tired of always starting over, second-guessing every food choice, or feeling like you “should” be more consistent, explore support that helps you build skills you can keep long after coaching ends.
