Keto Diet Summit
unlock the secrets to keto and carnivore success to lose weight and regain health
Meet Your Host
Hey! I’m Abby, the owner of a keto recipe website called Keto Keuhn Nutrition. I also have a few keto e-books. I have a passion for helping people lead healthier lives through the keto diet.
At 41, while running a business and working another full-time job, I understand how hard it can be to stay consistent when life is busy, stress is high, and the usual advice just is not working anymore.
I created this summit for women who feel like they are doing everything right and still not seeing the progress they want. My goal is to help you better understand what may be keeping you stuck, and bring together practical, trustworthy strategies that can help you move forward.
Through this summit, you’ll hear from leading experts who understand the real challenges behind weight loss, metabolism, hormones, and long-term success with keto. I’m so excited to share these conversations with you and help you find the pieces that finally start to click.

Dr. Kristina Dobyns
PhD Psych, MS Exercise Science
Somatic Movement Therapist/Integrative Recovery
Dr. Kristina Dobyns holds a PhD in Psychology and a Master's in Exercise Science, with advanced training in somatic movement therapy, nutritional therapy, metabolic health, and mindfulness-based relapse prevention. After more than two decades of gathering and field-testing tools, she brings an unusually integrative lens to recovery — addressing metabolic health, circadian rhythm, embodied awareness, and daily habit architecture as inseparable components of lasting food freedom.
In long-term recovery from binge eating and ultra-processed food addiction herself, Kristina combines deep personal insight with rigorous scientific training to support sustainable metabolic and psychological healing.
Her approach is compassionate, body-based, and metabolically informed. She integrates neuroscience, therapeutic carbohydrate restriction, somatic psychology, and relapse prevention science. She believes in data, discernment, and yes... strategic dance breaks as legitimate nervous system regulation.
A lifelong learner, a few of her recent advanced trainings include:
- Ketogenic Diets for Mental Health Clinician Training (Dr. Georgia Ede)
- Certified Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Teacher (MB-EAT)
- Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (Eric Garland, PhD)
- Befriending Your Body Professional Certification (Ann Saffi Biasetti, PhD)
- Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders (Embodied Recovery Institute)
She's also a former competitive breakdancer, multiple-time Figure and Physique Overall Champion, and three-time national powerlifting record breaker — so when she says movement is medicine, she has the receipts. Kristina is the creator and organizer of Meat & Movement, a keto- and carnivore-inclusive yoga, movement, and wellness retreat coming to Costa Rica in early March 2027.

A retired professional ballet dancer and four-time gym owner, Michele has spent 38+ years helping women transform their relationship with food, body image, and health.
She’s lived both sides of this work. Michele battled exercise-induced anorexia and body dysmorphia for years, once weighing 190 pounds and using food as punishment instead of fuel. That experience, combined with decades of coaching tens of thousands of women , led her to a low-carb, carnivore lifestyle that changed everything.
Today, Michele coaches women around the world, particularly those over 40, on sustainable fat loss, emotional healing, and metabolic health. She teaches a practical approach to nutrition focused on healing and strength rather than restriction and dieting. Through coaching, mentorship, and social media Michele empowers women to break free from food obsession and build lasting confidence.
Jennifer Brueton
Occupational Therapist,
Nutrition Network Coach Practitioner - Certified in Metabolic Coaching
For almost two decades, I worked hands-on with people rebuilding their lives after neurological injuries — helping them restore their cognitive function, regain independence, and return to a meaningful life. Again and again, I saw how profoundly the brain and body respond when metabolic health is restored.
That realization changed everything.
I combined my clinical background in Occupational Therapy with advanced training in neuroscience and metabolic therapies to create an approach that supports the body and the brain simultaneously — because lasting transformation requires both.
Today, I help women over 40 lose weight sustainably, break free from fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction so they can feel energised, clear, confident, and fully alive again.
