Sarah Mykel

Insulin IQ Certified Coach

“I used to feel like food was my best friend. It was my companion in joy and celebration as well as in grief, boredom, and distress. But food also felt like my worst enemy. I was overweight, addicted to sugar, prone to night binges, and I had begun to fear that getting healthy and losing weight was nothing but a pipe dream.”

“My whole world changed as I delved deep into the science of fasting and nutrition. As I began to understand the complex physiological systems that create or prevent metabolic illness, I learned why willpower is not the problem or the answer to our weight loss goals and the common ‘eat less, move more’ dietary advice doesn’t work.”

“I also learned to decentralize weight loss in the conversation about metabolic wellness. To me, learning about the body and about the mechanisms of metabolic health has been empowering in many ways. Through intermittent fasting I’ve been able to heal a lot of my mental hangups around food to have a healthier and less judgmental and compulsive relationship with what I’m eating.”

“Learning about insulin resistance and fat cells has helped me have a better relationship with my body and a less fat-phobic point of view when it comes to health and nutrition.”

“I’m a big proponent of body-individuality and my goal is to help clients learn how to have an empowered relationship with their bodies and with the food they eat. I’m always looking for that beautiful intersection of health and enjoyment, using all the tools and knowledge that we can to leverage success in both areas.”
