  Kate Lyman

  Kate is a good match for you!You need nutrition strategies that feel realistic instead of like one more thing to manage, and you want to spend less mental energy thinking about every food choice you make.I am a collaborative, behavior-change-focused coach who will help you cut through the information overwhelm around nutrition, build simple systems that fit your life, and feel more confident following through without needing everything to be “perfect. I’m also a strong fit for support through the menopause transition or while using a GLP-1.If there’s one thing I’m especially proud of, it’s building an absolutely incredible team. My own coaching capacity is more limited these days, but I’ve built KLN around coaches who are truly the best of the best. So much of what they specialize in comes from the work I love most: behavior change, putting an end to the cycle of perpetual dieting, advocating for women’s health, and helping real people make nutrition feel doable. If you work with anyone on our team, you’re in excellent hands! Also a great fit: Jilda, who shares Kate's love of simplifying what feels complicated.

  Diana is a good match for you!You seem like someone who needs progress that doesn’t require having an “ideal” week. You’re likely juggling a lot — work, kids, stress, postpartum seasons, or shifting capacity — and you want support that feels realistic instead of like another plan you can “fail” at. You want your eating habits to support your family and the people around you, without needing to make a separate “mom meal” for yourself.Diana is KLN’s Head Coach, a certified prenatal and postpartum coach, and a meal prep expert who our clients describe as endlessly patient.

  Kimberly is a good match for you!You want to make real changes, but not at the expense of your mental energy, self-trust, or relationship with food. Maybe you’ve spent years cycling through diets and food rules. Maybe hormonal changes have shifted the ground under you. Maybe you simply feel lost about where to start.

  Shannon is a good match for you!You seem like someone who knows this isn’t “just about macros.” You may understand what to do on paper, but your eating patterns are tied to something deeper: anxiety, perfectionism, rigid food rules, a long dieting history, or the mental load of motherhood, pregnancy, or postpartum life.You don’t need more nutrition information as much as you need help changing the patterns that keep pulling you back into guilt, overthinking, or all-or-nothing cycles.Shannon is a clinical psychologist, toddler mom, and women’s health advocate who brings a psychology-forward lens to nutrition coaching. Her approach blends real behavior-change science with patience and emotional nuance, helping clients understand why they feel stuck and how to move forward in a way that actually feels sustainable.Shannon is especially strong for clients with a long dieting history, anxiety or perfectionism around food, and those navigating trying-to-conceive, pregnancy, or postpartum seasons of life.

  Zach is a good match for you!You may already know what to do in theory. The harder part is doing it consistently when your brain, schedule, stress, or capacity don’t cooperate. Maybe you’re neurodivergent, coming from years of rigid food rules, or simply tired of advice that boils down to “try harder.” You want coaching that helps you build systems around how you’re actually wired, instead of forcing you into a plan that only works during a ‘perfect’ week.Zach specializes in supporting high-achievers, neurodivergent clients, and people with full social lives who need nutrition to feel doable instead of all-consuming.
