ABOUT ME

My name is Katey Davidson. I’m a registered dietitian (RD) and certified personal trainer (CPT). I’ve always had a passion for nutrition and fitness and have always dreamt of educating the world on a large scale. After starting up my TikTok channel in 2020 and amassing over 150,000 followers, I realized that I wanted to expand to YouTube where I could share even more nutrition and fitness information.

My goal is to help YOU and others learn the truth about nutrition and fitness, whether certain trends or supplements are worth trying, and really showing you that achieving good health IS possible at any budget or age. I want to teach you that you don’t have to be “that girl” to be healthy. You don’t have to be rich to be healthy. You don’t have to buy every supplement to be healthy. I want you to be your best, whatever that looks like.
It's my hope that this channel helps you discover what healthy means to YOU and how you can apply my tips to your own life in your own unique way.

I hope to see you around and remember to subscribe to stay up to date with my latest videos!
