About the Host:

Following the crumbs in the chaos is a full-time job as a Productivity Coach. As a busy mom of three and the founder of Chaos N’ Cookies, keeping moms from crumbling is my main objective. After gaining 10+ years of experience as a Director of Marketing helping build multiple 6 & 7-figure businesses for other women I’ve created the Chaos Control System to equip moms to overcome their own objections so they can live the life they want to live and start that business they have always wanted. The Family Playbook, or standard operating procedure, is the tool every mama needs to save time and stress-less when chaos ensues at home.

For new biz owners, I also help simplify systems on social media and other business platforms to automate processes to get their business up and running quickly and efficiently with how-tos and hands-on coaching. I have helped hundreds of women to be more productive and self-sufficient in their homes and businesses allowing them to reclaim control of the chaos.

Every year, I make a point of choosing a word of the year. After a year of what felt like constant change, this year, my word is consistency. While the start of the year didn’t go exactly as planned, I’m staying true to implementing my word of the year, overcoming the roadblocks I have experienced, and planning for the future.

As we enter the new year, my first guest of 2024 will help you reach your nutrition and weight loss goals. Dr. Hannah Brandt, founder and lead coach at HLB Lifestyle, has learned from her own personal weight loss experience what works and what doesn’t work and is now helping clients through the highs and lows of optimizing their health. 

About the Guest:

Dr. Hannah Brandt, PT, DPT, CPT, IFNCP, is the founder and lead coach at HLB Lifestyle, a virtual nutrition and fitness coaching company that aims to redefine the accepted norms of diet culture and weight loss. Having faced her weight issues while following 'all the rules,' Hannah realized that women don’t need another product, program, or supplement. Instead, they need what helped Hannah lose and maintain a weight loss of over sixty pounds: a personalized nutrition and fitness plan and a coach who can support them in discovering their own motivation, offer accountability, and guide them through the highs and lows. HLB Lifestyle is shifting the concepts associated with weight management from fad diets, severe restrictions, and quick fixes to sustainability, optimal health, and a relentless pursuit of joy.
