Kerryn Sawyer – The Plant Power Coach – is a New Zealand-born, Melbourne-based plant based nutrition expert, health and life coach.
She helps people achieve their ideal health and body weight with the power of a plant based lifestyle, mindset and emotional healing.
Kerryn has faced the frustrations of yo-yo dieting, been worn down by weight loss tactics, and battled low self worth fuelled emotional eating and over exercising.
A health scare at 44 years old was the not so gentle nudge to truly commit to a sustainable and love based approach to both nutrition and her body.
As a passionate advocate for whole plant foods, it is Kerryn’s mission to help as many people as possible make plant-based eating joyful and healthy.
Not only their own health and weight loss – also, for the benefit of the planet and the animals.
In this conversation we cover:
- Kerryn, like so many of us tried many “diet tactics” in her 20’s and 30’s. What was her mindset towards her health and body back then?
- At age 44 Kerryn was vegetarian, and diagnosed with a stage 1 melanoma.
- She started really researching diet and health. The quest was no longer weight loss or maintenance, it was health.
- Did Kerryn make mistakes? Make it harder than it needed to be?
- Setting ourselves up for success, in Plant-Based Nutrition. What are the first steps Kerryn recommends to her clients?
- The importance of mindset and emotional healing.
- What differentiates people that achieve the (health) results they are seeking and those who are not there yet?
When you focus on health, weight loss – if needed – comes along for the ride.
It’s natural, sustainable and the opposite of the restriction, punishment and fear based approach that both Kerryn and I succumbed to in our younger years.
I know it’s easy so think, that health – weight loss – whatever it is you or someone you love might be seeking, comes more easily to some people.
Some of us, are just lucky or more disciplined or simply don’t love food!
I trust Kerryn’s openness and willingness to share, shines a light on that limiting belief.
One of the many high value learnings I took from Life Coaching that I invite you to adopt if it resonates with you: “If someone can do it, anyone can do it.”
