Coach Katie is the founding member of Align+Clear Coaching, empowering people to create the healthiest version of themselves through the mind / body / spirit connection. Through an ancestral lifestyle that's grounded in behavioral neuroscience and positive psychology, her programs help clients understand how to eat, move, sleep, grow, heal and enjoy life.

Constantly working to discover and improve herself, Katie is also certified as a Brain Coach, Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator, Positive Psychology Coach and a specialist in Human Intestinal Microbiome in Health and Disease, Functional Therapeutic Diets, Health Coaching in Medical Practices, Mindfulness for Wellbeing and many more.

Prior to Align+Clear Coaching, Katie worked in marketing for over 25 years. Her experience spans manufacturing, communication, consulting, retail and agency environments — cultivating the brand to engage with customers, leading highly collaborative teams and building platforms for sustainable growth. In the corporate world, Katie took a lot of pride in being an advocate for her team and empowering every associate to be the best version of themselves while doing work they love. 

She recently relocated to the mountains of Colorado after living in Cleveland for 30 years and is an avid DIY-er, bird watcher and audiobook listener. She loves cooking at home and inventing healthy recipes. Katie has two rescue dogs who get excited for mountain hikes and a daughter who lives in Sacramento.

This is 13-year-old Katie. Before I was a teenager, I was diagnosed with a seizure disorder and recurrent bladder infections, prescribed a regimen of anti-epileptic drugs and antibiotics that would be in my system for years, until I decided to take control of my own wellness 15 years later with a holistic approach.

The prescriptions drained my energy, increased my appetite, curled my hair like a perm and dropped my grades in math from A's to D's. My roster of doctors at a world-class hospital disregarded and disbelieved all of these side effects. Ironically, in 25 years of medical care, not one physician recommended a keto (primal!) diet or fasting — both of which were proven to reduce seizure activity since the 1920's.

My hope is that my story can be a reminder that you can escape your past, what you were told was healthy isn't actually healthy and ultimately, you control how you react to your situation right now. One mantra that has stuck with me: the problem isn't in your family genes, it's in your family pantry. You are not destined to be the person you are afraid of becoming.

Align+Clear was created to help YOU feel in control of what you eat (and why), how you feel (and why), how you sleep (and why) and so much more.
