CASE STUDY: amy“I started following Beth on Instagram in the fall of 2023, slowly incorporating some of her tips into my habits and meal planning.
Then in December, my world was turned upside down when my spouse filed for divorce. At the time, my attorney advised me to get a physical and see a doctor frequently. ‘This is going to wreck your health if you're not careful,’ I was told.
I knew I didn't need a doctor - I needed Kitchen Shift.
The skills I learned in POWERSHIFT - meals, movement and mindfulness - got me through one of the most difficult seasons of my life. I had a pantry stocked with foods that would bolster my health, supplements to support my energy, immunity and sleep needs, and simple recipes for the days I could not think. I'm not kidding when I say that Beth's detox soup fed me for most of January!
I walked no matter what. I walked and cried, I walked and sulked, but I walked every day. I ate REAL food. I practiced gratitude and used breathing techniques to prevent the cortisol produced by stress from completely flooding my system.
I could have navigated this season with tubes of cookie dough and bottles of wine, depressed and in a food coma. But KitchenShift gave me a grounding and a focus when taking care of myself was more important than ever. And it was SO EASY. No counting calories or macros, no high-energy workouts to complete. It's honestly a journey of knowing you and your body better and enjoying meals made with real, unprocessed food.
Today, I'm in the best shape that I've been in for YEARS. But more importantly I feel SO HEALTHY. I'm not exhausted by 3 p.m. I sleep well. And I have the energy and strength to play with my daughter and keep up with our busy life. It's amazing that I feel at my very BEST during what should have been one of the worst experiences that life can hand you. And I know that Kitchen Shift helped me get here. “
