ABOUT KAT PONDS Kat is a woman of faith, wife, mother of four, veteran-turned-mompreneur, natural skin care line creator, author speaker and health advocate, so she knows what it's like to live a full life! Before she began advocating for the health of other women, she had to advocate for her own. Like you, she was overwhelmed with life, trying hard to keep all the pieces together. She was neglecting herself and pouring from an empty cup – all day, every day. She was running on fumes, but she had responsibilities, so she “couldn’t afford” to stop and fill up. But the stress of it all almost stopped her dead in her tracks one day 10 years ago.That day, she was at her lowest and all those balls she was juggling came crashing to the floor. And, it scared her into making some changes. That day, she cried out to God, called in some backup kingdom women, and put a plan in place to restore from within. Now she’s dedicated her life to coach busy moms and mompreneurs by helping them renew their minds, Re-FIRE their spirits, and restore their Temples (bodies), so they can flourish in all seasons of their lives.
