Today we’d like to introduce you to Katie Palmer.
Hi Katie, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today.
My business is driven by a personal passion to educate people and empower them to take control of their health. As a teenager, I witnessed a family member struggle with poor health. This person was given multiple diagnoses, medications to mask her symptoms, and even underwent surgery but she was never taught how to heal the body and restore it to good health. The experience was frustrating and tiresome for this beloved family member, and watching her struggle made me question common approaches to healthcare. Subsequently, what I witnessed, pointed me on a journey towards better and more informed ways of healing. Fast forward a couple of decades, and now – through significant education and training – I make healthy living accessible to my community. The more I work with clients, the more I realize that my family member’s story was not unique. Before coming to me, many of my clients felt like their health concerns weren’t heard or taken seriously. Even worse, I have clients that felt blamed and belittled for their state of health. My goal is to uplift individuals and teach them how to thrive. As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, a certified Herbalist, and a certified Live Blood Analyst, I help people get to the root of their health concerns.
When it comes to taking charge of one’s health, many people feel overwhelmed and they don’t know where to begin. I can help alleviate that stress, as I guide my clients on their journey, offering support and encouraging them along the way. And in the end, healthy happy people make for a healthy happy community.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I would say the most challenging part of this industry, is just staying current with the information out there! Science progresses so quickly, and it is exciting to stay atop the newest developments in natural health. It is important to me to continue educating myself to better help my clients. With that being said, there is definitely a fine line between staying in the know, verses getting caught up with the latest health and diet trends. I want my clients to be able to understand what they as individuals need without having to sort through all the ever-changing health crazes.
We’ve been impressed with Katie M Palmer, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I love helping people feel better! Most of my clients have hit a brick wall when it comes to their health. They have typically already tried everything and are not getting results. My job is to do the investigative work for them and help them identify the healing opportunities for their body. I started my holistic health journey off as an herbalist. While this taught me the science behind plants and gave me an understanding of how to help someone’s symptoms naturally, I wanted to know more. I felt that to truly help someone, I needed to understand what was really happening inside of their body to cause their symptoms in the first place. This lead my to Live Blood Analysis and eventually Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. I am now able to use blood analysis and functional lab tests to help my clients get to the core of their health issues.
I offer a variety of services for clients based off of their needs. Some of my packages include 3 months of ongoing support, guidance, and encouragement. However, that is not always everyone’s desired route. For someone starting out, they may prefer a standalone 30-minute blood analysis.
