We recently connected with Kimberly Flores and have shared our conversation below.

Kimberly, appreciate you joining us today. We’re complete cheeseballs and so we love asking folks to share the most heartwarming moment from their career – do you have a touching moment you can share with us?

A client of ours, Jasmine came to us about a year ago because she was struggling to get pregnant. She had one child in 2020 but suffered many complications followed by 2 miscarriages. She was told that if she wanted to improve her chances of getting pregnant again, she would need to lose weight. After working with us for about 4 months she was able to conceive and has had a perfectly healthy pregnancy! No fertility medications, no special treatments from the doctors. Not only was she able to conceive, but working with her coach through pregnancy has allowed her to maintain solid habits to prepare her for a smooth birth and the ability to rebound back after baby comes. This is what we do here at Sophrosyne Health.

Kimberly, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I have been in the healthcare field for over 10 years working in a variety of settings as a nurse practitioner including hospital medicine, family practice, urgent care, pediatrics, gastroenterology and nutrition. In my practice I became very discouraged at the way the healthcare system was run. Everything was dictated by algorithms and insurance companies. Short appointment times didn’t allow for adequate education which is what most patients needed the more than anything else. There had to be a better way to help others and create true lasting impact. This is when Sophrosyne Health was born.

My team is passionate about providing customized care. We understand the uniqueness of each persons special needs in their health journey and work to empower each individual to advocate for themselves and take control of their mind and body. We specialize in helping women break the vicious cycle of yo-yo dieting and lose the weight for good. We also help manage chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, PCOS, infertility, chronic reflux, IBS and many more functional disorders. We utilize evidence based nutritional guidance for all clients.

With a certified personal trainer and certified holistic health coach on staff, we are prepared to meet the needs of all clients far and wide to help them become the happiest, healthiest version of themselves.

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

Let’s face it: the weight loss/fitness coaching space is oversaturated with coaches, influencers and wellness gurus. One thing that sets Sophrosyne health apart is my background as a nurse practitioner.

Most of the coaches out there started their coaching career after going on their own health journey. There is nothing wrong with this, I did the same thing. The problem lies in the fact that those coaches only know how to help others through the lens of their own personal experience. Every human being on this earth os very unique and what may work for one person may not work fro the other.

I have woven my science and nursing background into my coaching expertise to allow space unique clients to come into our program and customize a plan that works for them based on the most up to date research regardless of what may have worked for previous clients. I have brought two additional expert coaches on board to really be able to serve each client based on their unique needs.

With my medical background, all clients have the added benefit of having their diagnostic tests reviewed and discussed to help them advocate for themselves and really collaborate with their medical providers.

If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?

Yes, in a heartbeat. I could not have as much impact on those I help within Sophrosyne Health without my previous experience as a nurse practitioner. Having certifications and degrees are of course necessary and beneficial. But I could not have nearly as much impact without having more than a decade of working with patients and learning how to treat them as an individual and not just their condition/diagnosis/laboratory results.
