Kat was legitimately my last hope…
Kat was legitimately my last hope to lose weight and feel more like myself again. She absolutely delivered. I had not even 6 months prior hired a nutritionist to help me lose weight after having my second baby. I only ended up losing 5 lbs, was still inflamed and still struggling hormonally. As a former athlete and as someone who “knew” how to “workout” and “eat well”, I was struggling physically and emotionally. I didn’t know what was wrong with me. My girlfriend suggested I work with Kat, and I was extremely skeptical. How would she be able to help me where others had failed? Ultimately, I gave her a chance. And now I’m in awe as I think about how different Kat and her approach is. She actually did bloodwork with me, to pinpoint exactly what was going on. She had me fill out an in depth questionnaire that helped her see what was happening. She tailored my nutrition and exercise specifically to me. No one had done that before. I lost weight, I had a complete body recomposition. I feel better, I have more energy for my kids and husband. I’m not lost anymore. It was not only a total physical but emotional journey for me. And I’m trying not to sob as I express my utmost gratitude for Kat and her team. If you’re still reading this, stop and hire Kat immediately. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Working with Alta changed my life!
I was feeling out of control and overwhelmed with where I was at in my life before I met Kat and Andrew. I had done an informational phone call with Kat but I wasn’t ready to do what I needed to to change yet. After doing a New Years challenge with them, I finally pulled the trigger. I went in to the program with a much more open mind, and Kat changed my life. She taught me how to independently manage my nutrition, not only for a fat loss phase but also during maintenance calories/macros. She’s helped me navigate two miscarriages and acute anemia and many other things life has thrown my way this last year. She’s provided many thoughtful insights and advice not only for nutrition and holistic medicine but also for life in general. Their whole body approach with nutrition, strength training, and functional lab work has changed my life. Before Alta, even though I was active and worked out, I was constantly bloated, tired, and gaining weight. Now I’m the strongest I’ve ever felt in my life, in control of my nutrition, and mentally stronger. I will forever be grateful to Alta for the habits they have instilled in me to last a lifetime.

I would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone. Whether you believe you’re doing everything right or you know you need to make some changes, these coaches will change your life if you let them. I entered this program feeling like I already knew a lot but could use some help with my nutrition. I’m leaving an entirely different person - my habits and beliefs around nutrition and wellness have all been overturned for the better. I’m so grateful for all the small changes Kat, Alexa and Andrew have helped me make that have added up to an entirely new outlook on living my healthiest life. They meet you where you are without judgement and guide you forward to where you want to be. They have helped me build new habits that will continue to compound benefits for the rest of my life. I came here to lose some fat and eat better. What I got was not only weight loss, better digestion, and a healthier body, but a healthier life for myself and my family. What a gift!

I was lost without Kat!
When I started working with Kat I was really at a loss as to why I couldn’t lose 10 pounds. I’ve always been a pretty active and naturally lean person, but all of my usual tricks of eating less calories and intermittent fasting didn’t work and I felt weight adding up slowly. I had a closet full of clothes I wanted to wear but didn’t feel comfortable in, I was always bloated, and my energy was crashing in the afternoon. I was already working with a good friend who is a health coach and had an appointment scheduled with a functional nutritionist (I thought in person would be better). The functional nutritionist was very expensive and rushed me through my appointment with a whirlwind of information. I left the appointment with a lot of questions and she was hard to reach after that. Kat, on the other hand, was coaching me every day and knew my daily habits so could make much better suggestions on my health. Kat helped walk me through habits that I thought were going to help me lose weight but were leaving my gut and hormones a mess!Once I entered the weight loss phase, I quickly began to drop the weight. It was such a relief because I truly thought I had tried everything. I was very stubborn in a lot of my ways and really needed to reframe my thinking. I appreciate all the knowledge and support from Kat. She has truly changed my life and I feel equipped to continue this lifestyle well after the program is complete!

Not Just for Weight Loss!!
Long overdue review here— I’ve been working with Alta for over a year now. The six month blueprint that is implemented was so good I came back for more! I love and thrive off of accountability, and Kat is always checking in encouraging simple food tweaks that work the extra mile. I have always been very health and wellness focused, but it wasn’t until working with Alta that I began tracking my food. I didn’t come here for weight loss. I have always been naturally on the thin side. I came to optimize my gut health. Prior to Alta, I worked with another functional health practitioner who covered everything except the nutrition …and that is exactly what I was needing! I used to experience painful daily bloating. I always blamed certain foods — but with Kat’s knowledge and insight, we discovered what truly was going on with my gut and what it was communicating to me (meal timing and overall quantity of food were two big culprits for me)! Before tracking my food and a little bit (ok, a lot) of education from Kat, I was certain I was eating enough food ….boy was I wrong! Out the gate Kat increased my calories by 500 and my body started to thrive! It almost brings me to tears to say that I haven’t experienced regular bloating (if any, really) in about a year now! If you think Alta is only for weight loss — think again! Working with Kat you can dig in to all the nuances of your health and learn more than you’d ever expect! Worth every penny!

Caring, Knowledgeable Coaches + Sustainable Results!
I cannot say enough great things about Alta, Kat, Andrew and Alexa! After gaining 30 pounds over the last decade and dealing with low energy, a frozen shoulder and chronic asthma/sinus issues, I knew I needed to make my health a priority. I had tried several times to make changes on my own to my diet and workouts, but was on a continual hamster wheel of starting and getting frustrated that I wasn’t getting the results I was hoping for. I originally joined Alta’s two week challenges. I immediately was impressed with how genuine and relatable Kat and Andrew are. In the two week challenges, I learned so many buildable habits that I have now made part of my every day life. After my second two week challenge, I decided to sign up for six month coaching with Kat. Best decision I ever made. I have lost 30 pounds. I have more energy than I’ve had in years. My sinuses are cleared up, my shoulder is significantly improved and for the first time in 20 years, I’m off all asthma medication. Working with the Alta team has been nothing short of life changing. Best of all, I now have the confidence and knowledge to know what I need to do for my health from here on out! If you’re hesitating – just do it! You will be so glad you did!

Had an amazing experience with Alta
I really enjoyed my experience with Alta! When I started most of my issues was regarding bad digestion, poor sleep and bloating. In the program a blood work was included and to my surprise my cortisol was sky high! Then Kat and Alexa worked with me to balance my meals (i was basically eating only carbs) so I would eat more proteins and good fat. In 3 months I barely had any bloating after meals (and if I did I knew why), was sleeping great and did not rely on antiacid to go through the day. Things that I had not expected was that my hair looked more voluminous and shiny, my body got toned and i started loosing the dready cortisol belly that I had. I’m sure everything I learned i. This program will help me for life!

Fantastic program!
Fantastic program! I started with a high A1C and wanted to reverse that. Working with Kat has helped me better understand nutrition and how my body responds to what I eat. After the program, I have lowered my A1C, lost weight and have better educated my family on nutrition. Thank you Alta team!

I have now finished a six-month journey…
I have now finished a six-month journey with Alta Coaching, specifically working with Kat, and I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing short of positive, sustainable, and truly noteworthy. Having struggled for over six years with the constant cycle of losing and regaining the same 10 pounds, the fact that I've managed to shed 20 pounds in just these past six months while working with Alta Coaching is, in itself, a testament to the effectiveness of their program. What truly sets Alta Coaching apart, and Kat in particular, is her ability to make this entire process feel remarkably effortless. She expertly educates me on the specific needs of my body, skillfully using facts to address and alleviate any doubts that arise, and consistently keeps the focus firmly on achieving long-term, sustainable goals. Furthermore, her daily accountability support has been invaluable, providing the necessary encouragement and structure to stay on track and achieve remarkable results. I've decided to extend with Alta Coaching for another year because I know the value the program provides for long term success.

Accountability and Knowledge
The program has a great team with a wealth of knowledge and helps provide a terrific system to help you stay accountable. It's a great combination!

Worth it!
Kat, Alexa, and Andrew made this a terrific experience for me. I originally found them because I was having skin issues and I wanted to see if I could find the root cause rather than covering things up with topicals. I trusted the process and my skin is better than ever! Bonuses included better immunity as someone who does a lot of work travel and used to get sick often on those trips, as well as increased confidence/ability to navigate staying “on track” when I’m traveling. Loved working with such a supportive group of coaches who helped me take charge of my health in all areas.

5+ Foundation for Life!
I worked with Kat & Andrew for 6 months and it was the most impactful program for my health, current and present. I truly owe them the world and can't recommend this program enough!I struggle with an autoimmune condition and was looking for help in understanding what food, movement, and lifestyle changes I can make to feel better. We worked very closely together to monitor how certain foods made me feel and how to incorporate a balanced meal plan with a busy schedule. They reviewed my bloodwork to track how our nutrition changes impacted my overall health. We learned I was often times not eating enough, and how important fueling my body is to maintain energy and balance. I felt supported through the entire process, and loved having the ability to 'phone a friend' at any point in the journey for help or advice.Kat & Andrew helped me truly learn and set a foundation that I can use and lean on forever. I believe the knowledge and tips shared are realistic and changed the way I set up my day, review a menu, and proactively manage my health.

Break free from feeling overstressed & depleted
Such an incredible investment in my health! I felt I had tried it all and even thought I knew enough about health to get through my health journey alone. But boy was I wrong! It wasn't until I started working with Alta that I saw real results. As a busy woman trying to do it all, I thought I was managing my stress well, but I was constantly drained, and emotionally low. The things that once brought me joy felt exhausting. It felt like one of the hardest periods of my life.Then I began working with Kat & Alexa. Within just a couple of weeks of focusing on my gut health and getting into the gym, I started to feel a real shift in my mood and energy. After a few months, I felt like me again... happy, energized, and with my cup full. Not once did I feel restricted with my meals or bored with my workouts, instead I felt empowered to create long lasting habits that future me would be proud of. Alta's compassionate and judgement free guidance has been truly transformative.If you’re feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or not yourself, Alta is your missing piece. It was for me and I'm forever grateful to have such an amazing team by my side.

Alta Coaching
Andrew, Kat, and Alexa were phenomenal in helping me reach my goals with weight loss and fitness. I started with them in early December before the holidays, hoping to get healthier and lose weight. They personalized a great nutritional and workout program for me to follow, and the greatest thing was I was never hungry during that time. Kat was phenomenal in following up on my nutrition to make sure I was on track and great at giving different ideas and insights to keep my nutrition on the right track. Alta was instrumental in helping me get in great health for a knee replacement that I completed during my program time. They significantly accelerated my recovery time. They’ve done a phenomenal job, and anyone who uses them will see significant results, not only from a weight loss standpoint (nearly 30 pounds) but from just being healthier both mentally and physically.”

Alta has changed my life for the better!
I have tried various diets and workout programs to lose weight in the past, only to gain it back and then some once I inevitably stop because it is unsustainable. At this point in my life, I'm not looking to only lose weight but to also improve my overall health. Alta has done that for me! Kat, Alexa and Andrew have all been so great and helpful in my health journey! They check in regularly, review what I eat, provide tailored workouts and give feedback on my form on how to improve. They even review my blood work and suggests foods/supplements based on my blood work to improve the numbers. They have helped me to become more mindful, disciplined and gain confidence in sustaining a new lifestyle where I am eating balanced meals, walking daily and resistance training regularly. I have made great strides toward my goals and I am completely confident that this lifestyle is something I can and will continue with, even once I'm done with working with them. Alta for life!

Personalized and holistic approach for longevity
Alta tailors its program to your body and food preferences, helping you reach your goals in a sustainable way. It’s not a quick fix, but you can see results fast if you commit. I now eat more and train with less intensity, yet see better outcomes. With guidance from Kat, Andrew, and Alexa, I fine-tuned what I was already doing right. For me, success means improved body composition, a deeper understanding of nutrition and macros, and workouts that truly work for me. Alta has helped me to build strength and habits that last.

Truly Worth It
Huge thanks to Andrew and Kat at Alta for their incredible support over the past six weeks! With Andrew’s guidance and confidence-building coaching, and Kat’s expert nutrition advice, I’ve learned how to fuel my body properly and see real results. Their personalized approach— Andrew’s consulting and Kat’s biweekly progress calls and in-app macro guidance— helped me successfully lose 10 pounds while maintaining a sustainable, empowering lifestyle. Grateful for their expertise and highly recommend them!

Accountability & Education with Real People Who Really Care!
The Alta Team has been a true partner for getting my health back on track as I hit my 40s and juggling all things life (work/toddlers/family health) challenged me to the max. They helped me hit goals of losing weight and increasing my activity, while educating me on nutrition for my whole family!FITNESSWhen I joined their program in the fall of 2023, Andrew welcomed me and from the start gave me the confidence that I could do / be / look however I wanted - and he would support me however needed with the fitness aspect. We discussed my interests and equipment, and the benefits of different programs. He offered options when I was traveling or hit a slump. And for me a very valuable piece was his (virtual) presence, cheerleading, and motivation.NUTRITIONKat offered a wealth of nutritional information - helping me cut through what I thought I knew and what I scrolled through, ultimately giving me so many bite-size nutritional hacks and nuggets of wisdom I still use daily! During the initial (more intense) onboarding she checked in every day on my food log - what I ate and when - supporting good decisions and advising as needed! But she also helped me advocate for more knowledge/testing with my primary care and understand what my body was doing. We talked a lot about poop, periods, and vitamin supplements. TMI maybe, but the point is, she didn't shy away (or let me shy away) from uncomfortable topics that I needed to talk to someone about!MORE FITNESSAfter my initial 6 month program I continued to utilize Alta's strength programming membership and got to work with Alexa who has been an awesome addition to the team - adding new dimensions to the workout plans, while providing specific workout feedback through video support. WHY ALTAThese people truly care about you and your goals - ensuring they are sustainable and real lifestyle shifts, not just a quick fix. I am excited to continue to follow their progress as they build their community and provide masterclasses. Also, I love their challenges that pop up a couple times a year and the engagement/motivation that is fueled by everyone involved! WHO IS THIS FOR:I highly recommend this program for everyone - if you are willing to put in the work. They truly can cater to any level of fitness and nutrition knowledge, but you need to want to do it. They can help you find time in your schedule and provide a shopping list, but they can't lift the weights or make you dinner. If you want to make a change and any inkling in you is willing to try - at the least you owe yourself the opportunity to set up a call and talk to them to find out if its the right fit. Do it for future you - they will thank you!

I can't say enough good things!
I can't say enough good things about Kat, Andrew, and Alta! I initially found Alta through Instagram and started following them, and I participated in a couple free challenges. I really liked the app and the advice I got during the challenges. The more I learned, the more I was intrigued by the idea of coaching. I'm a relatively healthy person blessed with good genetics and the ability to eat whatever I want, however after having my son 13 years ago plus approaching middle age/perimenopause, I was starting to notice weight gain. More importantly, my cholesterol was getting higher and I knew I wanted to change my eating habits. I signed up for coaching in April, 2024, and it was one of the best decisions I've made for myself. After six months, I had lost 20 pounds- all while eating MORE food than I ever had before. I have never been a breakfast eater, but I now know the importance of fueling my body properly. I had no idea what macros were and the idea of them sounded overwhelming, but I learned that it's really not, and Kat's guidance was invaluable. I'm now eating plenty of protein, fiber, and healthy fats, and making better choices when eating at restaurants. And, I don't feel deprived! I'm still able to eat things I love, like pizza. I've significantly improved my habits around eating and drinking water, and I dramatically cut back on my soda consumption, which is something I'd been wanting to do for several years. It might seem expensive, but the investment in yourself is worth it. I needed the accountability and guidance from someone else in order to do the things I knew I needed to do, and it worked. Everything I learned is easy to incorporate into my daily life, and I'm grateful to have found Alta and taken the leap!

Lasting Habits & Results
It’s been an incredible 6 months and absolutely flew by. I know I still have room to grow and improve but I truly feel so confident in the base habits I’ve formed and rewired my approach to eating which at its core was the essential reason I needed this! I know consistency is a major key but I’m feeling great and know exactly what I need to do when I veer off course. Thank you for all the support and guidance along the way! I’m also so energized and excited to see the work paying off in my latest bloodwork as well
