A healthy gut is a life well lived.
Become the Expert on Your Own Body
I partner with you to prevent and overcome chronic disease and navigate menopause through lifestyle changes that fit your real life.
Coaching the World, VirtuallyLocal to the Tampa Bay area? We can meet in person. Anywhere else in the world? I've still got you.
Your bloodwork came back normal. You still don't feel like yourself.
Your doctor says you're fine, but you know you're not. Maybe you were given a diagnosis, or maybe no diagnosis at all. Either way, no one gave you the path for your body to thrive.
That path is what I help you find. Together we look at why your symptoms are there and what your body is asking for, instead of only quieting the symptom.

The KCL Philosophy
Health isn't about restriction or perfection. It's about understanding your body's unique language.
Your body works as a whole. Nutrition, gut health, movement, stress, sleep, self-care, your environment, and the people around you all shape how you feel, and each one affects the others. That is why I look at every pillar together rather than one at a time.
The gut is a big part of that picture. It is where nutrients are absorbed, where much of your immune system lives, and where hormones are metabolized and kept in balance. It is also why the transition into menopause so often brings digestion, energy, mood, and sleep into focus all at once.
Root Cause Focus
Every symptom tells a story. I help you trace that story to its source, because understanding why something is happening is the first step to changing it.
Body Wisdom
Your body is constantly communicating. I teach you to recognize its signals so you know what it needs, when it needs it, and how to respond with intention.
Sustainable Change
Quick fixes create quick reversals. Lasting change comes from lifestyle shifts that work with your life, not against it.
Empowered Independence
My goal is not dependency. It is to equip you with the knowledge and tools to become your own best health advocate.
The KCL Complete Protocol™
Eight pillars of health, considered together.
The KCL Complete Protocol™ isn't another diet or wellness trend. It is a framework built on the understanding that health emerges when your nutrition, mindset, and daily rhythms work together.
Each protocol is customized to your real life and meets you where you are. Through 1:1 coaching, I support you in designing changes that fit your life, at your pace.
01Nutrition
Synergistic, strategic, and purposeful eating
Nutrition
Synergistic, strategic, and purposeful eating
Food is information for your cells. Nutrient synergy uses strategic food pairings that support absorption, so what you eat works together to nourish your gut-liver axis.
02Gut Health
Where nutrients, immunity, and hormones meet
Gut Health
Where nutrients, immunity, and hormones meet
Your gut communicates with your hormones, your immune system, and your mood. Using the 5R framework, I support you in restoring balance to your microbiome.
03Exercise
Movement that honors your body
Exercise
Movement that honors your body
Movement is a celebration, not a punishment. Together we find movement you enjoy that supports your hormones, builds strength, and energizes rather than depletes.
04Stress Management
Regulating your nervous system for resilience
Stress Management
Regulating your nervous system for resilience
Chronic stress affects hormones, digestion, and energy. The FEEL method and vagal toning techniques help you build resilience and change how your body responds to pressure.
05Sleep
Rest aligned with your natural rhythms
Sleep
Rest aligned with your natural rhythms
Sleep is when your body restores itself. Principles of the Horary Clock help align your rest with your circadian rhythm for deeper, more restorative sleep.
06Self-Care
Practices that truly nourish

Practices that truly nourish
Real self-care means honoring your needs consistently, not only in a crisis. Together we identify the practices that restore you physically, emotionally, and spiritually, and weave them into your daily rhythm.
07Toxic Burden Reduction
Clearing the path for your body to thrive
Toxic Burden Reduction
Clearing the path for your body to thrive
Everyday environments carry stressors your body has to process. Supporting your natural detoxification pathways, especially the liver, supports hormonal balance, mental clarity, and steady energy.
08Community
You were never meant to do this alone
Community
You were never meant to do this alone
Connection matters. Being surrounded by people who understand your journey brings accountability, encouragement, and the kind of support that makes change last.
What We Address Together
If any of these resonate with you, you're in the right place.
Your symptoms are not the enemy. They are messengers. Every sign your body sends is her way of telling you to pay attention, to be on alert, because something deeper is asking to be addressed. When we learn to listen, we discover the path to true healing.
Nowhere is this truer than in menopause. Hot flashes, sleep disruption, mood shifts, and stubborn weight are not simply something to endure. They are signals, and many of them trace back to the gut, where estrogen is metabolized and balance is maintained. Support the gut, and the menopause transition becomes a passage you move through with strength rather than a season you simply survive.
Gut and Digestion
- Digestive discomfort that never quite resolves
- Bloating, food sensitivities, or irregularity
- Confusion about what to eat with so much conflicting advice
- Cravings and energy crashes through the day
- Weight that won't respond to traditional dieting
Hormones and Menopause
- Hormonal shifts that feel overwhelming
- PMS, fertility challenges, and all stages of menopause
- Mood swings and emotional volatility
- Skin issues that reflect inner imbalance
Energy, Sleep, and Focus
- Fatigue that coffee can't cure
- Sleep that doesn't feel restorative
- Waking up at the same time every night
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
Chronic Conditions
- Chronic illness (diabetes, heart health, metabolic conditions)
- Autoimmune conditions (Hashimoto's, lupus, RA, and more)
Stress and Self-Care
- Stress that's become a way of life
- Feeling wired but tired, never able to fully relax
- Running on empty with no time left for yourself
- Trouble setting boundaries that protect your energy
- Feeling disconnected from your body
Movement, Environment, and Support
- Movement that leaves you drained instead of energized
- Not knowing how to move in a way that supports your hormones
- Concern about everyday toxins in your home, food, and personal care products
- Feeling alone in your health journey
- Wanting accountability and encouragement to keep going
- Desire for lasting change, not quick fixes
Health coaching works alongside your medical care, not in place of it. I partner with you on the lifestyle side of your health and encourage you to keep your healthcare providers in the loop.

Meet Kate
Your partner in creating a healthy life.
I'm Kate Composto-Lazzarotti, a holistic, functional, National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC). I am also an International Health Coach, Integrative Nutritionist, and Dietary Support Specialist, and I founded KCL Wellness in 2021.
My own path started with symptoms that didn't fit neatly into any one specialty. Each doctor I saw looked carefully within their own area, and when my symptoms didn't fit, I was passed along to the next. No one was looking at my body as a whole. I believed others were going through the same thing, and I knew I could help.
Today I partner with you to prevent and overcome chronic disease through lifestyle change, and I support women through every stage of the transition into menopause. My focus areas are gut health, mental fitness, hormone support, and whole body detox, always considered alongside every other pillar of your health.
My approach isn't about telling you what to do. It's about helping you understand what your body is already telling you. When we work together, you won't just feel better. You'll understand why.
There is no reason you should have to wonder what is wrong. I help you discover what the answer could be.
The knowledge you gain about your body becomes yours forever. No co-pay. No refills. No one can ever take that from you.
