Meet Katie Baker
Hello! I'm a nurse practitioner and certified nutrition coach living in Knoxville, TN. I'm also a wife and homeschooling mom of three. I've worked in healthcare since 2008 as a nurse and family NP and am also a yoga instructor, triathlete, avid hiker, and science nerd. Partnering with people in their health journey is something I'm super passionate about. I'd love to be that person for you.
My Story
Twenty years ago, a doctor told me to move more and eat less but offered no guidance or support and left me wondering what in the world I was supposed to do. This set me on a journey, not only for personal health and wellbeing, but also to become the type of nurse practitioner and coach that doesn't leave people hanging.
​
It is my desire to fill in the gaps left by many providers who perhaps don't have the time or knowledge to guide people through the changes needed for improved health and longevity.
​
Over the last two decades, I've learned to focus heavily on strength training and movement which lays a foundation for healthy aging and allowing bodies to continue to function well for as long as possible, eating in ways that are fun, filling, freeing, and sustainable, the infinite value of sound sleep, and the amazing power of a good adventure.
​
These are the four foundations I focus on personally and help my clients build upon to meet their goals. I also know that making changes is challenging, and I want to fully support my clients as they implement new things into their lives, always focusing on the main thing... to experience full and joyful lives.
