Change Your Narrative. Change Your Body.
Join us for a journal-based course that takes all the elements of a story and uses them to help you create the identity, thoughts, and actions that will allow you to craft the body of your dreams.
Your stories create your reality.
"I'm an emotional eater."
"Once I start eating sugar, I can't stop."
"I'm all-or-nothing. I'm either crushing it or off the wagon completely."
"I can go all in on a 30 day plan, but then I go back to my old habits and undo all my progress."
"I've been overweight since childhood. This is just who I am."
"I always go off the rails when life gets stressful."
Do these stories resonate with you? You're not alone - these are stories I used to tell myself, as well as some of the most common stories I've heard from my clients.
If this is the case, then it's not a new, better diet plan or another 30 day challenge you need. Instead, you need a structured way of replacing these limiting stories with ones that will allow you to shapeshift your body and maintain that transformation.
Do you want off the dieting rollercoaster?
Do you want to feel confident in your ability to create change?
Do you want to feel at peace with your eating habits and your body?
Are you tired of gaining and losing the same pounds over and over again, exhausting yourself by trying every new plan you stumble upon?
Do you want to permanently change who you are when it comes to food and fitness so you can reach your goals and maintain your progress?
My struggles with weight started at age six. I spent decades of my life wanting to be thin and trying all kinds of things to get there. I even became a personal trainer, thinking that was the answer to my emotional eating and my lack of consistency. Instead, I gained 30 pounds while working in the health and fitness industry.
Through my own personal journey and through my work with hundreds of clients, I discovered that the stories we tell ourselves about our bodies and our eating habits hold us back more than any faulty diet plan or workout regime ever will.
Through changing my stories with this journal-based process, I've lost over 30 pounds (and kept it off for months - a first for me!), gained confidence, found peace around food, and ended a decades-long struggle with binge eating. I can't wait to see how this process changes your life next!

Testimonials
Highly Recommend
I highly recommend this course to anyone who struggles with improving their health and fitness or has difficulty losing weight.
Kayla Van Egdom is a knowledgeable and experienced mentor and this comes across in her moderating style.
She is very supportive and helps you visualize the roadblocks to attaining your health and fitness goals.
I was amazed at the depth and breadth of this 16 week course. I have learned a lot about myself and will continue to refer to the course material as I progress along on my health and fitness journey.
"A Breath of Fresh Air"
Working with Kayla is a breath of fresh air after following different 'diet plans'. She is supportive, honest, she truly cares and you will never feel judged. She has a gift to help you overcome the real struggle with your eating challenges, so that making the healthier choice is so much easier for the long term.
Refreshing New Approach
I had the pleasure of being in the pilot group for Be The Author Of Your Body. It was a refreshing new approach led by Kayla who is incredibly skilled at getting you to really look at WHY you haven’t been able to lose the weight.
Unlike any other weight loss program I have tried this has given me great insight to the struggles I’ve had and helped me gain the knowledge I need to finally concur it.
Now that I know the reason behind my struggle, I am very aware when it comes to choices. I tend to make better choices and feel better physically and emotionally when I do.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone that has struggled with conventional diets.
"More at peace with who I am."
I am more at peace with who I am and the choices I am making about my life. I realized that I can control what my story is, and that the people I choose to have as my supporting characters, are just that, they are not the authors, or co authors, or even critics to my story. I am the one that gets to control how I feel about the direction of the story for the rest of my life. I also realized that my story is not written in stone, it can be changed and will go through numerous rewrites as I go through different changes in my life.
More Energy & Less Medication
One of the main benefits that I got from this course, was the ability to change how I thought about food. Some of the reading and writing exercises made me look deep into the way I viewed my health and fitness. Since going through this course I have more energy, and am taking less medications for diabetes.
I am eating healthy choices and feeling better. I am also more active.
