Let’s create a healthy lifestyle that really sticks
Hi, I’m Kim!
A Health & Nutrition Coach specialised in helping busy women to set up a healthy lifestyle that sticks, by getting from overwhelm to balance in life and in the kitchen.
Whether you’d like to feel great in your body, boost your immunity, make dietary or lifestyle changes, increase your energy, find more balance and fun in your life, feel happy, healthy and alive (…or, all of the above!), I’ve got tips and resources to help you get there.
A bit about me!
Learning to listen to my body
I’ve been an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach since 2016. Before I found my calling, I worked in the corporate world as a legal consultant for more than 10 years. I was busy all the time. Long hours, lots of travel. No healthy lifestyle, that’s for sure. I didn’t listen to the signals my body was giving. It was telling me to slow down, and all I was doing was keeping my foot on the accelerator.
My body was whispering me to slow down, I didn’t listen. Then it threw a pebble, a brick, and in the end I hit a wall. A wall in the form of a massive health scare after a routine cervical cancer screening. After that a depression, divorce and the disaster my life was turning into. Everything came crumbling down. To top things off, I also developed an auto-immune condition called Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I had completely lost control over my body, my health, and my life.
Medication was suggested by several medical professionals, but my body had enough and I didn’t want to add this to the load. I managed to get all things under control without medication. Even the asthma I had throughout my whole life disappeared. Purely by living a healthy lifestyle (with lots of trial and error of course).
All the lessons learnt from these life trials, mistakes, research, plus my Integrative Nutrition Coaching study, is what I offer to clients today. I’ve learnt what works and what doesn’t, and can help you to take all the right steps in the right order, so you can fast track your way back to your old, happy and healthy self.
What I’m known for:
I’ve been living in Australia since 2012, but I’m originally from the Netherlands.
As a Dutch woman, I was born with my heart on my sleeve. This means that I’m straight to the point as a coach. I don’t do fluffy fluff. Sugarcoating takes too much time and I want my health coaching to be efficient and effective, but ALWAYS with compassion and heart, to get you the best results.
Since my 20’s, I’ve moved more than 20 times. Lived on 3 different continents, on 2 remote islands, moved interstate, have had to set up my life in a country where I didn’t speak the language and couldn’t read the alphabet.
I’ve become an expert at starting my life over, getting organised in the kitchen and setting myself up for a successful healthy lifestyle, time after time, from the bottom up.
Animals are my life. I LOVE nature and wildlife. In my free time you can find me rehabilitating sick and injured sea turtles, cuddling wallabies and talking to the birds around the house.
Well… because my full name is Kim van Oudheusden. The standard response I get to that is: “can you please spell that for me”?
Because I’m a person who likes to keep things simple, I just dropped off all the letters after “O”. Easy done.
I started Kim van O – Health & Nutrition Coaching because I don’t want YOU to go through what I went through; 5 years of stress, cervical cancer screening after cervical cancer screening, hoping the result is going to be okay this time. Ultimately leading to a full hysterectomy when I was 34 years old and a life without kids. Followed by an autoimmune thyroid disease and severe depression.
It doesn’t have to be this way!
Because I want a life without medical troubles for you, busy woman, I’ll help you set up a healthy lifestyle that really sticks. This teamed with my certification as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach can help you discover a healthy lifestyle to prevent disease and will enable you to grow old in a happy and healthy way. You want to keep showing up as a great and healthy partner, mum, daughter, sister, friend and employee in the world.
Too busy to get healthy?
Being healthy doesn’t have to be hard, You just need the right coach… and I’m different to most.
I’ve had to set up my healthy lifestyle more than 20 times, in different countries and know exactly what works and what doesn’t. Plus first hand experience on reversing medical conditions with diet and lifestyle.
I know exactly what it feels like when you think you’ve lost all control and can’t see a way out. I found the way out and can show you how to get there.
Feel energised, motivated, balanced and in control
My favourite thing about this work is that I love human beings and connection. It’s inspiring to work with people who truly want to be happier and healthier. And it’s so rewarding to see the sparkle back in the eyes of a busy women, when she’s found that healthy lifestyle that really sticks.
So if you’re ready to experience a healthy lifestyle in a way you feel energised, motivated, in control, balanced, competent and calm, let’s talk.
