Hi, I’m Kathy

Hi, my name is Kathy Payn, a.k.a. Coach Sunny, nice to meet you!

In my early 30’s I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called ulcerative colitis. I went through a number of years with the pain and embarrassment that this condition brings. Instinctively I felt that I could do something about it, even though my doctor indicated that I would have the disease for the rest of my lifetime. With research and lifestyle changes, I am happy to report that I have been symptom and prescription free for 20 years now. Because I wanted to share my experience and help others, I founded YourBodyNumbers.com and furthered my education to become a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach. 

Functional Medicine Health Coaching looks at all aspects of lifestyle, including movement, nutrition, sleep, relationships, stress management, fun & recreation and personal development.

YourBodyNumbers.com helps our clients make use of their “numbers” (functional lab results, hours of sleep, BMI, minutes of movement per day, etc.) in the health coaching process. As a life long scientist, I enjoy seeing improvements not only in the way we feel but also with solid technical data.

Everything is about you and what your goals are. We are only here to guide and support you in reaching your wellness goals.
