Simply Living: Holistic Health Coach

My name is Katie Kaup and this is my Thrive experience.

I will be 26 this coming June. Before being on Thrive, I was dealing with exhaustion, headaches, mental and emotional stress, and my mind would be in a fog. I worried about small things for absolutely no reason. My job isn't an active job so stack candy & pop cravings on top of this and tell me that's a healthy lifestyle.

I started with a 3 day sample and I placed my order in October 2014. I soon became a promoter just for fun, and was ready to hit the ground running. But I didn't. In the beginning my consistency was terrible. So I knew I either needed to quit messing around with it, or just forget it. Have you ever taken Thrive for more than 10 days and then decided to quit taking it? Don't do it. This was my sign my body was missing 'things'.

So here I am, writing my experience. Listen to your body. If you are questioning it, it's a sign your body needs something. I have heard myself say countless times, "I never have enough time in my day." Well of course I don't have enough time when I take a 4 hour nap on Sundays. So I sit for another hour complaining. The last time I checked I am the only one that rides my horse and I wasn't getting that done when I wanted to take naps on my days off and slip a nap in over my lunch hour. Then I would complain some more because my horse isn't getting ridden. It was no one's fault but my own. Enough was enough.

Thrive has helped me get over a few obstacles. It is all because of the nutrients my body was lacking. Best of all, this is my favorite- I am no longer buying stocks in Nestlé. No more sweet cravings! I am sleeping soundly at night and wake up revitalized. My days are relaxed and I haven't been so worked up I forget my brain at home.

My workouts are one of my priorities! Most importantly, I am feeling all-in-all, healthy! The best thing I love about Thrive and Le-Vel's products besides the fact they work; they are sooooooo easy to take. Simply & sweet and to the point! No need to take 15 supplements throughout the day at specific times & rub your belly and pat your head at the same time. Who likes to lug around 15 different supplements in their purse. Not I! Easy Peasy!

I am 100% sure Thrive will help my 2015 year be successful. Why? It all starts with goals. To achieve those goals I need to be motivated. To be motivated I have to have energy. To have energy I have to feed myself the missing nutrients & supplements my body isn't getting from the food I eat. To feed myself the missing nutrients & supplements I have to believe in Thrive & Le-Vel's products. In order for this to be successful for YOU, you first have to have the courage to change and the will to TRY.

Thank you Jena Garwood for enlightening me to experience Thrive and Le-Vel!!

A Healthy Body Equals Healthy Hair

Check out these 4 super foods that help to fortify hair!

1
Eggs contain Biotin (a B vitamin) that helps overall hair growth and scalp health.

Oranges are packed full of vitamin C, which helps your body absorb iron. If you don’t get enough vitamin C it can lead to dry/weak hair.


3
Spinach contains vitamins A & C which help produce sebum (a scalp oil) that doubles as a natural conditioner.


4
Oats contain silica which helps improve hair thickness and strength.
