Welcome to Gettin’ My Healthy On! My name is Katie, and I’m a thirty-something healthy living blogger who lives in Chicago after a 6-year hiatus in sunny San Diego. As of April 2022, I’ve officially retired from blogging here (see My Farewell to Blogging), but you can still access all my recipes, workouts, and ramblings.
I used to blog here regularly but have since decided to focus on other areas of my life, such as becoming a new mom to a baby girl. I also work full time from home as a senior content strategist and SEO specialist at a marketing agency that specializes in elective healthcare. When I’m not in my yoga pants doing the work thing, I like to try new recipes, explore the brewery scene with my husband, hoard books, and get active in nature.
I started this blog in 2012 as a way to feed my passion of running, which transitioned to more of a food and general fitness blog. I frequently posted workouts and recipes that I created, and the rest of the time, it was a combo of healthy tips, inspirational quotes, and random favorites I wanted to share with you.
When it comes to “getting my healthy on,” I strongly believe in balance. While I like big salads and colorful smoothie bowls, you can also find me indulging in comfort food and decadent desserts. I try to post a little bit of everything to give you a realistic view inside how I maintain my happy weight, while still emphasizing the importance of nutrition for a healthy body.
My goal has always been to focus on the journey and embrace where I’m at, while still working on improving myself. I hope my posts are useful, if not just entertaining, as you strive to make your health more of a priority—whether it’s your mental, emotional, or physical health. I hope you’ll join me in my adventures as I continue to get my healthy on!
