Transform Your Life with Your Wellness Revolution
Welcome to Your Wellness Revolution LLC!
Formulated by yours truly, Katrina, with a passion to empower you with knowledge & tools to feel like your best self!
I have been in healthcare in different roles since I took my very first job in middle school. I have proudly earned many years of experience, and I have transformed my approach to providing care as a result. I started working as a nurse in a cardiac and medicine intensive care unit. This inspired me to continue my education and after earning my master's degree in nursing and passing my board exam as a Nurse Practitioner in the state of WI in 2012, I practiced in Internal Medicine (IM) for a few years, gaining a vast wealth of knowledge. While in IM, I saw patients in the hospital setting, clinic, and also in a nursing home and rehab facility. I later started a family of my own and wanted to practice in the area of cardiac medicine, which was my first passion. I have spent the past 10 years working as a nurse practitioner in heart failure & cardiac transplant. I have been extremely fortunate to have worked alongside many colleagues who quickly became lifetime friends of mine while caring for the most special group of patients! I attended many medical and transplant conferences and was fortunate to present poster presentations in both Philadelphia and in Prague. I provided education both in and outside my formal practice to colleagues, nursing staff and also presented at patient support groups in this role.
Many consumers have grown aware of the expanded use of therapeutic peptides over the past several years (think Ozempic, Wegovy, (both semaglutide) & Mounjaro (Tirzepatide). These medications were initially indicated to treat diabetes and now have expanded use for obesity. We have observed benefit for indications such as cardiovascular health, sleep apnea, cancer, addiction and neurodegenerative disease. I have been utilizing these medications regularly in my traditional practice to treat cardiac patients addressing chronic illness and also assisting them with weight loss to improve chronic disease and to maintain eligibility for treatments such as cardiac replacement surgery. I was informally nicknamed the "glp-1 queen" by colleagues as a result of my enthusiasm about the results of these medications.
To me, there is nothing more rewarding than being able to help a patient feel better about themselves and improving their quality of life. I approach every encounter with a patient with the goal of establishing trust, sharing knowledge, empowering them with an understanding of their current health state as well as all related options as we select a treatment plan.
I have leaned into this interest of mine and have moved into a Bariatric surgery practice. Additionally, I have sought out all information available to me to grow my tool set as one option does not fit all!
I took a leap of faith & stepped outside of my comfort zone this year and am expanding into a private practice in addition to my traditional employment. I am joining a team of amazing providers and will be providing medical assisted weight loss services out of a spa in Pewaukee, WI. You will see me add hormone balancing treatment for both women and men soon.
While I believe in traditional medicine, I do not think it is perfect. My personal belief system involves a combination of traditional medicine alongside disease prevention, overall wellness, lifestyle practices & of course education. I am beyond excited to add bioactive precision peptides to the many ways in which I can offer help to so many! These are a FIRST of its kind to the market and I am thrilled to be a part of launching something that you will find will change the health and wellness space! I mentioned therapeutic peptides to you above, which can be wonderful and impactful when provided to you by an experienced practitioner with consideration for your unique situation. These bioactive precision peptides are molecules found in nature that can be ingested on a daily basis providing the exact feedback your DNA needs to communicate cellular function to the rest of your body! We can select particular peptides for particular pain points to improve quality of life. What I am most excited about right now is that we can find body transformation when used alone, or even alongside synthetic/therapeutic peptides without muscle loss! Muscle is SO important for longevity of life, as well as chronic disease prevention.
I would be honored to have your trust and share my tools with you as we select a plan that will work best for YOUR specific needs. I am so happy to introduce the start of my business to you.
After all, this is YOUR Life, YOUR Health, and YOUR Wellness Revolution.
My Why
I am a proud mother, partner, family member, friend, and medical professional.
Always first for me is my family! I am so happy to implement the balance and control over my life that works best for myself and my family while adding value to the community that surrounds me and so many individuals.
Too often, people do not feel listened to when they start with vague complaints that they present to their medical professionals. I genuinely care about what you are experiencing and even if your lab panel is "normal", it does not mean that your symptoms are not real to you. Additionally, if weight is something you have been struggling with, it is important to me that you know this is not a personal flaw of yours. I care deeply about adding both quality and quantity of life by addressing the underlying cause to so many of our mental, physical and medical issues.
Together, we will explore how to cultivate greater happiness and wellbeing in all areas of your life.
Two of our greatest assets in life are Health & Time. Invest in your health & you will gain more time.
