192: Coaching, Connection, and Sustainable Health with Kara Collier from Nutrisense

Hi friends! I have a brand new episode live, and today I’m diving into a powerful conversation with Kara from Nutrisense all about metabolic health, continuous glucose monitoring, and the role of human connection in building sustainable lifestyle changes. I’m SO excited for you to listen to it!!

Here’s what we chat about:

• Why metabolic health is the foundation for your energy, focus, and long-term wellness
• The most common dietary mistakes that spike blood sugar (and how to avoid them)
• How continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) can give you real-time insights into your body
• The importance of stress management and its impact on blood sugar regulation
• Why AI can support—but never replace—the empathy of human coaching
• Practical strategies for creating small, sustainable healthy habits that actually stick

This episode is packed with insight and encouragement to help you take control of your metabolic health and feel your best every day.

If any of my fellow health professional friends are looking for another way to help their clients, I highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go one to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can absolutely join if you don’t currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don’t begin on this path. They’re friends who are passionate to learn more about health and wellness, and want to share this information with those they love. You can do this as a passion, or start an entirely new career.
