🌿 The Only Program of Its Kind

This isn’t a workout plan. This is a wellness recalibration.

Strong & Steady Her™ is the only program that blends intentional movement, metabolic support, mindset rewiring, and bone density optimization—all tailored to women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s.

Every sequence, every recipe, every journal prompt is designed with your current body, your real life, and your evolving energy in mind.

There’s nothing else out there like this—and that’s intentional.

Because you are not a general population. You are the heartbeat of your home, your business, and your future.

Our Philosophy

We believe your body is not broken.
We believe discipline feels better when it’s born from self-respect, not self-punishment.
We believe education beats motivation.
We believe intention creates transformation.
And we believe that a steady woman is a powerful woman.

We’re not here to fix you. We’re here to help you lead yourself back home.

Her work centers on making bone health, hormonal support, metabolic resilience, and anti inflammatory living not only accessible, but transformational.

Katie

Director of Patient Experience

I’ve always cared deeply about helping people feel comfortable, supported and valued—especially when it comes to their health. I love helping create an environment where women feel truly understood and cared for as they navigate changes in life. There’s nothing more fulfilling to me than building relationships with patients and seeing them thrive. 

It’s no secret that very few doctors are truly focusing on women’s healthcare—especially during critical stages like perimenopause and menopause. That’s why working with Dr. K is so inspiring. Dr. K’s dedication to this underserved area of women’s health is life-changing, and I’ve seen first hand the difference that compassionate, specialized care can make. Healthy lifestyles and movement have been key to my own journey, and it’s my mission to help Dr. K reach even more women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s so they can feel empowered, balanced, and confident during this stage of life.

In my free time you can find me cooking, volunteering, walking or with my husband, son and pug on the lake boating and watching as many sports as possible!
