are you struggling with your health?

If you’ve been experiencing sickness, fatigue, depression, pain or weight issues, your body isn’t working as it should. There are many reasons for these health issues, and sometimes working with a Health Coach can help.

As your Health Coach, I support you through diet and lifestyle changes to help you feel the best you can and live a brighter, happier life.

Health coaching isn’t a set formula. It’s always a highly individualized process. In my Health Coaching Program, I focus on bio-individuality – the idea that we’re all different and have unique dietary, lifestyle, emotional, and physical needs. In other words, I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to health and wellness.

So, I work with you to help you discover how to fuel your body, live a healthy lifestyle, and become the healthiest, happiest version of yourself by finding exactly what works for you.  

Living your best - most healthy life - can start today.

  • "Kristin's coaching was life-changing for me after years of struggling with countless Day 1's and programs that didn’t resonate. Her Brighten Your Life coaching gave me the tools and acknowledgement I needed, especially around nervous system regulation, which I didn’t even know about before. Learning to balance my gut health and nervous system has been a game-changer—I no longer crave alcohol or feel the need to numb out. Kristin's friendly, positive attitude made our weekly meetings something I looked forward to, and her wealth of knowledge and resources were invaluable. I am now over 4 months sober, and for the first time, it hasn’t been a struggle. This program is more effective than anything else I’ve tried, and I can truly see myself living alcohol-free for the rest of my life!"

    Lorinda Rehbein

  • "I truly recommend Kristin Horstman to everyone I meet. Kristin, what you were able to help get me through in such a short time is truly amazing and I am so grateful. I could NOT have made it a whole month sober without you, and it just made the time that followed that first month, so much easier."

    Syntia Rabideau

  • "If you're considering GAD Coaching, I'd say just give the free phone consultation with Kristin a shot! That way you can dip a toe in and see if you like the water before you dive in. I really liked Kristin's approach and her recommendations for quit lit and podcasts to complement her coaching. Kristin checks in daily via email and that daily contact was so helpful!"

    Georgia B.

  • "Today is the 30th day! Can’t believe it! It went quicker than I expected, and surprisingly, was easier than I thought! One of the biggest challenges was my mind shift, it was hard to let go of the “here comes the party” title. It's now time to retire that position. Kristin Horstman was definitely a huge help in making it easier! She was a great motivator, reminding me that alcohol is literal poison. She is a skilled and fabulous accountability, health & GAD coach!"

    Valerie

  • “I’m more than halfway through my 30-Day No Alcohol Challenge! Kristin has been so amazing and encouraging and has kept me accountable. It hasn’t been easy, but I can honestly say it feels great on so many levels, and I’m committed to the final outcome. Thank you Kristin!”

    Valerie La Bianca Donofrio

  • "Kristin is thoughtful, knowledgeable and encouraging! We were able to set measurable goals for each session to achieve tangible results. She also gave good tips and techniques for falling back asleep in the middle of the night which was so helpful to me."

    Amy F

  • "I’ll be forever grateful that I signed up with Kristin! Over the last couple of years, I’ve tried various coaches, multiple AF apps, therapy, and retreats, but nothing seemed to help or to regulate my nervous system - until I worked with Coach Kristin! My mind used to be in chaos. In just seven weeks with Kristin, I've experienced a considerable change. Our weekly sessions, daily check-ins, and the somatic techniques Kristin taught me have been the key elements in shifting from being overwhelmed to a calmer, happier mind. My relationships with my daughter, fiancé, and co-workers have all improved because my headspace is now calm and less reactive. Coach Kristin and her amazing 1:1 Gray Area Drinking Coaching program made all the difference. I recommend Kristin’s program for anyone wanting to brighten their life!"

    Lindsay Grider

  • “I had the most interesting conversation with Kristin. We spoke about health, mind, body and the impact of different food and drinks on our bodies. It was a wonderful twist on how to look at what and how you consume. Kristin will be a true new leader in this field!”

    Valerie La Bianca Donofrio

  • "Kristin is very nice to work with. She is open, so easy to talk, and extremely knowledgeable about health and anything related to sobriety. My main reason for reaching out to Kristin was because I needed accountability. Knowing that we would be emailing daily was very helpful to me and I really appreciated her thoughtful responses that were also full of interesting resources related to health, sleep, and sobriety."

    B.

  • "Working with Kristin was such an amazing experience from the beginning. Kristin has such an openness about her that I knew right away she would be the coach for me. During all of our time together, Kristin always took the time to listen to me like I had never felt before. It’s hard to explain how vulnerable I was able to be, which has always been such a challenge. But Kristin supported me and created such a great space to explore whatever was on my mind. Working with Kristin helped me build a lot of confidence as I had set some pretty big goals for myself. Kristin helped me keep focused and develop a plan that kept me moving forward instead of getting stuck or giving up. I would definitely recommend Kristin if you are looking for a coach!"

    Ben C.

  • "I could NOT have made it through my first month of not drinking without a GAD Coach!! Kristin was extremely helpful and a God-send. The daily check-ins and accountability to someone other than myself were exactly what I needed in order to start this new journey. It takes a good support system to stay on track. I didn't think I needed help from anyone, but, the more support you have the better. And not just people, but hobbies as well, and forming new habits. I also learned a lot about different techniques to make it through cravings, and even how to successfully make it through stressful situations (ie, work stress), in order to find calmness again, before the stress would build enough to bring on the alcohol cravings."

LIVE YOUR BRIGHTEST LIFE with health coaching

  • In today’s busy world with demanding jobs, endless technology at our fingertips, easy access to fast food, and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, we are becoming unhealthier than ever before. Unfortunately, this is increasing the burden on the healthcare system, hospitals, and even close family members to care for people suffering from the effects of this lifestyle phenomenon.

    But why not change the conversation? Why not focus on prevention – rather than trying to treat disease?

    Most diseases are avoidable with the correct diet and lifestyle changes.

    This is where a Health Coach is vital in ensuring you live a happy, long, and healthy life.

    Health Coaches focus on preventing ill health while also focusing on positive forward life growth and movement. It’s an overall health and wellness approach based on both science and personal experience.

    We look at what is needed to nourish your body, mind, and spirit and how important movement is to fully support a healthy body. All to enhance and improve your overall quality of life.

    Brighten Your Life Health Coaching takes an integrated approach to your health. That means we don’t just focus on food and exercise. Instead, we take a whole body-mind-soul nourishment perspective. We identify where you are richly supported or where there are imbalances in your life.

    This includes what impacts your career, relationships, physical activity, and the metaphysical (spiritual) may have on your life.

  • Working with a qualified Health Coach may help improve health outcomes in:

    • ADHD

    • Asthma

    • Cancer survivors

    • Chronic pain

    • Heart disease

    • Diabetes

    • Osteoporosis

    • Physical activity

    • Healthy weight

    • Create your overall health goals

    • Discover how to replace those ‘unhealthy’ choices with a new focus on total wellness

    • Be guided to find dietary solutions that work for you – because everyone has unique needs

    • Identify the areas in your life causing the most stress and anxiety, then learn techniques to manage and relieve these symptoms

    • Learn how to embrace your healthy new lifestyle

    • Importantly, you’ll understand what to do when you slip backwards and how to get back on track – we call that a ‘lifestyle shift’

    • Feel empowered to take control of your health

    • Plus, you’ll be held accountable to make sure you reach your health goals

    • All while having fun in a safe, supportive environment

  • The goal is for you to enjoy reduced stress, a healthy weight, a clear mind, high energy levels, healthy relationships, and a confident, positive approach to your life.
