We made this video 15 years ago.😳
What's so amazing is that the ONLY thing that has changed is the program's name!
What was once our TakeDown Lifestyle program has been known as the Balanced Habits™ LIFE program since 2012.
We still apply the same principles of building a sustainable lifestlye starting with a customized nutrition program and developing a Coach-Client relationship in the process.
32 years ago when people asked me what I did for a living I said;
"I teach people how to eat to achieve their goals and feel amazing." And to this day I say the exact same thing!
Are you ready to build a PERMANENT SOLUTION to how you're "doing" life so that you too can achieve your goals and feel amazing?
We've been successful this long for lots of reasons. 😎 💪

My name is Carolyn Fetters. In addition to being the founder of Balanced Habits, I was also a multi-location fitness business owner, with my husband, Paul. Together we have been in the fitness industry for 30 years.
Why I Do What I Do
For over twenty-five years now, I’ve been a nutrition expert and counselor. It’s my passion. Having said that, it seemed only natural to apply my energy and enthusiasm for nutrition in a way that would help people throughout North America to better understand how to make better and more healthful nutrition choices to support their own goals. I have now worked directly, and indirectly, with over 140,000 people with the nutrition programs I created to educate people how to eat real food in the right portions to support their body and lifestyle. I coined this term a “Füducation.”
The origins of Balanced Habits
In 1994 my husband and I created a one-on-one nutrition program we called LIFE, to support our gym clientele. In 2008 I created the KICK START for a short-term, community-type event built around a nutrition program. Both programs continue to be extremely popular and successful.
So successful, that in November of 2012, we realized that we were limited to how many people we could impact with our own two hands so we started making our nutrition programs available to fitness businesses all around the USA and Canada, so they too could help their clients and community learn how to eat right and live more healthy lifestyles. We named our company Balanced Habits™ and re-branded our original programs to Balanced Habits™ LIFE and Balanced Habits™ KICK START, as we wanted to emphasize that we all have habits and the goal is to have more balanced habits.
We are so inspired to not only support communities all across the US and Canada, but Fitness Businesses as well, by developing a proven and profitable Department of Nutrition, rounding out their business brand and changing the way they operate by providing a “one-stop-shop” opportunity they previously were missing. We see this as a win-win and have now devoted 100% of our time to building Balanced Habits into a National Brand recognized everywhere.
This Fall 2018 will be the 26th installment of our Balanced Habits™ KICK START program and we are thrilled to have the opportunity have now touched over 140,000 lives! Balanced Habits™ LIFE is on its 25th year and we have thousands of folks on this program at this time.
