Katie Heddleston is a dynamic professional with a diverse background in nutrition, entrepreneurship, and creative pursuits. Since becoming a Registered Dietitian and graduating with her MS in Public Health Nutrition, Katie has provided nutrition education to thousands between her private practice, group coaching programs, and online audiences. On the creative side, Katie has owned and operated the popular headband company BAMR Bands since 2013. Continuing her love of education, no matter the subject, Katie began homeschooling her kids in 2020 when the COVID pandemic hit. Katie still homeschools her three boys and provides embroidery workshops and topical unit studies to her local community. She lives in Indiana with her husband, three kids, and their labradoodle.

Robin Konie is a researcher, writer, and TEDx speaker. An educator at heart, Robin has been teaching in one way or another for more than two decades. After graduating with an MFA in Modern Dance from the University of Utah, Robin assumed her career would be fairly straightforward as a university professor. But after five years of teaching in higher education, she made the difficult decision to leave her safe job and start her first business. Since then, Robin has authored eight books, written over 400 articles to an online audience of more than 20 million people, and spoken at national conferences and virtual summits. When she’s not working on a project, she's usually hanging with her family in Indiana, dancing in the kitchen, or reading a book.
