A bit about me…

In my 30s, postpartum anxiety, digestive distress, mold exposure, nervous system dysregulation, sleep disturbance and complex, chronic pain and symptoms led me to seek the root cause of my issues. Seeking to heal from the inside out and move into a place of empowerment, I pursued training to become a functional medicine health coach. I became certified through the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy in 2022. The biological, integrative and coaching education and practice I gained helped me partner powerfully with my body to heal, and seeded a longing to support others going through health challenges. I’m presently studying to become Board Certified through the National Board of Health and Wellness Coaches.

Called Sarah Kate growing up, teammates shortened my name to “SK” while playing competitive soccer. A former club and collegiate player, I’ve worked to shift my relationship with my body and movement from intense and competitive to connected, enjoyable and supportive. I worked in technology operations at Google before earning an MBA and working in the nonprofit sector. As a health coach, my passions include chronic illness, metabolic health, longevity and preventing neurodegenerative disease. I’m married to Luke and reside in Durham, NC with my 13-year-old son and dog. I find joy in walking, sunshine, strength training, community and meditation.
