Motivating me to believe in my goals

My motivation & accountability lacked in the past three years but Kate's enthusiasm and support was able to rekindle my passion for training and the grind. Her communication & flexibility to work around my busy schedule was so helpful. Proud to call her my coach and more importantly, my friend.
