Cabhit Reports Rising Demand for Fixed-Fare Airport Transfers as UK Transport Volatility Increases
Cabhit, a leading UK-based airport transfer comparison platform, has released new insights as travellers increasingly shift toward fixed-fare pre-booked taxis amid rising volatility in the private hire market. With recent reports of ride-hailing apps experimenting with “fare bidding” and dynamic surge models, demand for transparent, predictable airport journeys is growing rapidly. As the transport landscape continues to evolve, travellers flying through Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, and London City Airport are re-evaluating their options — balancing cost, convenience, safety, and reliability. The Public Transport Gamble: Speed vs. Convenience For passengers prioritising speed, express rail services like the Heathrow Express provide quick access to central London. However, this speed comes at a premium and often exceeds the cost of a private transfer, especially for groups. The London Underground, while cost-effective, is challenging for those with heavy luggage, families, or business travellers. Navigating escalators, long walks, and peak-hour congestion makes it far from ideal for seamless airport transit. The Volatility of On-Demand Apps Many travellers still rely on last-minute searches such as “ taxi near me ,” but this convenience comes with uncertainty. Recent industry changes — including surge pricing, fare bidding, and unpredictable wait times — have made on-demand options risky for time-sensitive airport travel. For passengers heading to a flight, negotiating prices or watching fares fluctuate in real time is far from reassuring. The Stability of a Pre-Booked Airport Taxi Pre-booked airport transfers offer the consistency modern travellers value most: Fixed fares agreed in advance Meet-and-greet services inside the terminal Flight tracking to ensure timely pickup No surge pricing or unexpected fees This model eliminates uncertainty and offers seamless planning for both domestic and international passengers. Leveraging Technology: The Aggregator Advantage Platforms like Cabhit have modernised the booking process by allowing travellers to compare licensed taxi and private hire operators instantly across the UK. Key benefits include: Long-Term Planning Travellers can book airport transfers up to 11 months in advance , locking in current rates and avoiding seasonal inflation. Family Safety Unlike app-based rides where child seats are often unavailable, Cabhit enables free child and baby seat requests during booking , improving safety and convenience for families. Vehicle Choice From saloons to large MPVs, travellers can select vehicles based on group size and luggage capacity — a crucial factor for long-haul flyers. Conclusion With the private hire sector undergoing rapid change, the certainty of a pre-booked, fixed-fare airport taxi is becoming the preferred choice for informed travellers. While public transport serves certain passengers well, those seeking reliability, comfort, and transparent pricing increasingly turn to aggregator platforms for trusted, stress-free journeys. About Cabhit Cabhit is a UK-based airport transfer comparison platform connecting passengers with fully licensed taxi and private hire firms nationwide. The platform enables travellers to compare instant quotes, book in advance, request child seats, and choose from a wide range of vehicle types for seamless and predictable airport travel.

From student room to 100,000 customers, Sybren Bies (25) scales up in 5 years.
Netherlands-based potting soil producer celebrates 100,000 customers with a focus on quality and plant-specific recipes Sybotanica has surpassed the 100,000 customer mark in less than five years since its inception in Sybren's student room. The Arnhem-based producer and e-commerce player specializes in plant-specific potting soils, with its own recipes and production. The company now has 20 FTEs. The business case Whereas the traditional potting soil market revolves around large volumes and generic bags, there is a growing group of consumers with demanding, often exotic houseplants. They don't want a generic bag, but want to know exactly what they are giving their plants. Sybren Bies stepped into that gap with Sybotanica, which has now developed 16 plant-specific potting soils. Problem and solution Owners of plants such as monsteras, cacti, and orchids seek certainty in composition, quality, and delivery time. “Our customers often see their plants as pets rather than purely decorative items for the room; they take it really seriously,” says Sybren. Sybotanica solves this by focusing radically on one category, plant-specific potting soil, with self-developed recipes and direct distribution via its own web shops. From financial dip to focused growth The rapid growth also had a downside. The operation became costly and processes were not efficient enough to run the production site profitably at the scale Sybotanica had at the time. “We grew in turnover, but our factory was not running efficiently enough to achieve healthy figures,” says Sybren. That reality check led to a sharper focus on process improvement, standardization, and scale. Focus Sybren consciously chooses to focus. “Better to do one thing very well than three things just not quite well enough.” Although that was different in the beginning. “I sold everything from plants, cuttings, and terrariums to even rare woodlice!” After Sybren decided to focus on one category, growth took off. Next steps In the coming years, the focus will be on further scaling up and professionalization. Sybotanica is investing in increasing capacity at its production site in Arnhem, further standardizing processes, and expanding its core product range. At the same time, it is working on improving supply planning and further localization in its main markets of Germany and France, where Sybotanica is growing the fastest. About Sybotanica B.V. Sybotanica B.V., founded in 2020, has a mission to make plants happy by offering sustainable, plant-specific potting soils and accessories for anyone with a passion for botany. Our potting soil is based on coconut and Dutch worm manure, and our products are manufactured in a social workshop, promoting not only ecological but also social sustainability. Our extensive range provides both consumers and businesses with high-quality products, and our solutions are available in both B2C and B2B markets.

Parent Assisted Living Guilt: Guide For Dallas Fort Worth Caregivers Released
Sage Senior Support has released a guide addressing the emotional burden experienced by adult children in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex who face decisions about placing aging parents in assisted living facilities. The guide shifts from clinical placement terminology to a permission-based framework that validates caregiver exhaustion and reframes the transition as a safety measure rather than abandonment, representing a concrete innovation in how families navigate one of the most psychologically complex decisions in the adult life cycle. More details can be found at https://sageseniorsupport.com/transition-kit-home-page-991894-8334 Market research reveals that existing top-ranking resources remain too clinical and lack explicit permission for caregivers to prioritize their own mental health. According to behavioral analysis of the DFW market, families face a dissonance between cognitive realization—knowing a parent is unsafe—and emotional obligation rooted in internal narratives of duty, creating what researchers identify as a significant validation gap in current content. The Dallas-Fort Worth region presents unique environmental stressors that compound national guilt patterns. Extreme Texas summers pose deadly heat risks for isolated seniors, particularly those with age-related changes, chronic health conditions, and medications that increase vulnerability to heat-related illnesses. The 2021 Winter Storm Uri, which left more than 4.5 million homes and businesses without power for several days, created lasting anxiety about grid failures and power loss. The guide addresses these local safety concerns that national resources overlook, transforming placement from an emotional loss into a climate security strategy for vulnerable elderly residents. The guide identifies four distinct guilt triggers that families experience individually rather than as a monolithic emotion. The Broken Promise trigger involves guilt about old commitments to never place a parent in a facility—promises often made when the parent was healthy and the child was younger, before complex medical needs like dementia or incontinence became unmanageable. The Role Reversal trigger addresses discomfort with parenting one's own parent and taking authority over a parent's autonomy. The Abandonment trigger centers on fears of isolation, fueled by outdated stereotypes of nursing homes as warehouses for the dying. The Self-Preservation trigger tackles guilt about feeling relief, which caregivers often misinterpret as selfishness rather than a natural physiological response to the cessation of chronic stress. Each requires targeted validation rather than generic reassurance. The guide provides Dallas-Fort Worth specific resources including facility cost comparisons and placement agencies accessible to metroplex families. Assisted living costs in DFW range from $3,500 to $6,500 monthly but vary based on location, amenities, and level of care, with luxury communities reaching up to $10,500 per month. It references cost differentials between Dallas and Fort Worth, local community reputation data, and Texas-specific legal tools such as Lady Bird Deeds—which allow homeowners to transfer property to a beneficiary after death, avoiding probate and potentially protecting real property from Medicaid estate recovery claims—and Medicaid Estate Recovery planning. This actionability reduces the fear of the unknown identified in research as a major paralysis point for families. Financial transparency forms another critical component, as the guide demystifies costs ranging across the DFW market and addresses the guilt associated with spending inheritance on care. Texas-specific strategies to protect the family home through Lady Bird Deeds and Medicaid planning transform financial anxiety from paralyzing dread into actionable stewardship, since the Medicaid Estate Recovery Program (MERP) allows the state to claim repayment for long-term care services after the recipient's death. Families often fear both the immediate cost of care and the potential loss of assets to state recovery programs. The guide's framework moves families from the Reluctant Acceptance stage through to Rationalization and Validation. It includes guidance on managing the parent's adjustment period, bridging the cognitive-emotional gap, and reframing the caregiver role from hands-on care to care management, allowing adult children to shift their identity and reclaim personal mental health without abandoning their responsibilities. Recognizing that family structures vary, the guide addresses distinct segments including only children bearing unshared burdens, blended families with sibling conflict, and multi-generational households. Each segment experiences different guilt triggers, and the guide provides language and strategies specific to these dynamics, including how to communicate placement decisions to reluctant or distant siblings who may weaponize guilt against primary caregivers. Sage Senior Support positions itself as a support partner rather than a facility broker. The company's existing resources—including Care Plan Assessments, Transition Blueprints, and professional consultations—combine with the new guide to form a care coordination ecosystem. The company understands both emotional and logistical dimensions of the transition, from guilt management to real estate, financial planning, and legal guidance. Dallas-Fort Worth adult children can access the free guide through Sage Senior Support's website as part of the company's commitment to eliminating the validation gap identified in research. The guide is available alongside free Care Plan Assessments and professional consultations. Families across the DFW metroplex including Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, and Arlington can contact the company at 817-968-3595 for support navigating compassionate, evidence-based senior care transitions.

2025 Guide Highlights Cheapest Good Quality 3D Printer Filament Bulk Deals
A newly released 2025 analysis highlights where consumers can find the cheapest good quality 3D printer filament when purchasing in bulk. With the growth of home 3D printing and the continued rise in material demand, many shoppers have turned to larger multi-spool bundles as a way to reduce overall printing costs. The guide compares major retailers and outlines current trends that influence filament pricing throughout the year. According to the report, significant price differences remain between single-spool purchases and bulk quantities, with many retailers offering 10-25 percent savings when buying multiple spools. These savings vary based on brand, material type, and retailer promotions, but bulk bundles continue to be one of the most reliable ways for frequent 3D printing users to reduce expenses. The analysis points to several key factors affecting bulk pricing, including manufacturing costs, shipping rates, distributor margins, and seasonal sales cycles. Major shopping events such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Prime Day consistently deliver some of the steepest discounts, while educational and back-to-school promotions often help reduce prices for students and makerspaces. Direct-to-consumer brands, including well-known filament manufacturers, frequently offer the lowest prices when purchasing from their official storefronts. These brands often provide bundle options that reduce the per-spool cost while ensuring consistent quality control and reliable packaging. Larger online retailers, including Amazon and specialty 3D printing stores, also adjust pricing frequently based on inventory levels, competitive activity, and market demand. For consumers seeking a detailed comparison, the complete guide and updated price listings are available at the link below: https://3dprintgeek.com/blog/cheapest-good-quality-3d-printer-filament-bulk-deal The overview also highlights common buying strategies that can help reduce long-term material costs. These include mixing multiple colors within a single bulk bundle, participating in rewards programs that accumulate points for future discounts, and using holiday promotions to stock up on frequently used filament types. Many retailers also provide loyalty incentives that enhance the value of repeat purchases, particularly for high-volume 3D printing users. In addition to pricing, the report evaluates what qualifies as “good quality” filament within the budget range. Reliability, dimensional accuracy, color consistency, and packaging standards all contribute to how well a material performs during extended use. The guide emphasizes the importance of comparing user reviews, tolerances, and printing profiles when selecting lower-priced bulk options to ensure consistent results. Overall, the 2025 guide aims to provide a clear, data-driven look at the most cost-effective ways to purchase high-quality 3D printer filament in bulk. With updated retailer comparisons, seasonal price trends, and practical buying strategies, the report serves as a useful resource for consumers looking to reduce filament costs without sacrificing print performance.

Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. Launches Clothing Brand to Support Mental Health and Global Impact
Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co.: A Clothing Brand That Supports Mental Health and Gives Back Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. announces the official launch of its clothing line, a brand rooted in honesty, vulnerability, and social impact. The company’s mission is clear: to provide clothing that not only offers comfort and simplicity but also supports those living with mental health challenges. Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. aims to turn the experience of living with mental illness into empowerment, dignity, and meaningful community support. A Brand with Purpose and Real-World Impact The unique name “Mentally Chill” is a bold statement that reclaims the phrase "mentally ill" with honesty and humor. This name is not a coincidence, it's a deliberate choice to show that mental health isn’t something people need to hide from, but a part of their lifestyle. It’s about embracing both the good and the challenging days, and finding calm, acceptance, and peace along the way. Founded by Woody Gerrard, a humanitarian leader with a background in mental health advocacy, Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. has quickly gained attention for its commitment to social change. Every item of clothing sold supports the Bluebird Bridge Foundation, which funds global initiatives such as food security, youth support programs, and mental health resources. “I didn’t build a clothing company, I built a support system disguised as a clothing brand,” said Gerrard. “Mental health isn’t a trend. It’s a lived experience, and Mentally Chill is about embracing that reality with honesty and dignity.” The Power of Clothing to Create Change Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. is not just another apparel brand; it’s a movement. The company’s core mission is to turn clothing into a platform for change, ensuring that each purchase has a tangible impact on real-world issues. The brand donates 100% of profits, not just a percentage or a seasonal campaign, but every dollar after production costs. The clothing becomes a vehicle for funding programs that improve lives and support vulnerable communities around the globe. Unlike other mental health-focused brands that merely sell "positive vibes," Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. is rooted in the reality of living with mental illness. The clothing reflects this authenticity, with designs that speak to the everyday struggles and victories of those who live with mental health challenges. The goal is not to gloss over the difficulties but to make them part of the conversation, to show that everyone deserves support, dignity, and a sense of belonging. “Every piece of clothing is a reminder that you’re not alone, and every purchase directly helps someone else get the support they need,” Gerrard added. “Fashion can feel good when it does good, and this brand exists to prove that.” What Sets Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. Apart While many brands in the mental health space sell "feel-good" clothing, Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. differentiates itself by its commitment to social change. The company is built around the idea that clothing can do more than just cover our bodies, it can change lives. The company’s dedication to authenticity and social impact is what makes it stand out. While other brands may donate a percentage of proceeds to various causes, Mentally Chill donates 100% of its profits to the Bluebird Bridge Foundation, ensuring that every dollar directly supports critical initiatives such as: Food Security Programs: Ensuring communities have access to nutritious food. Youth Support: Providing resources and mentorship for vulnerable young people. Global Mental Health Initiatives: Raising awareness and providing resources to combat mental health challenges worldwide. Community Empowerment: Strengthening local communities through education, resources, and programs that create long-lasting change. “I want my brand to be more than just another clothing line. I want it to be a conversation starter, a symbol of hope, and a reminder that we’re all in this together,” said Gerrard. The Larger Social Impact Ecosystem Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. is part of a larger humanitarian ecosystem that includes various initiatives like The War on Nothing, Globes for Kids, and Everyone Eats Excellent. These programs are designed to address global issues from food insecurity to youth empowerment, with the goal of creating a holistic system of support for those who need it most. By purchasing from Mentally Chill, customers are not just wearing clothing, they are actively contributing to the betterment of others’ lives. Recognition and Awards In 2025, Woody Gerrard was named Best Humanitarian Leader for Social Impact by Best of Best Review, further cementing his commitment to positive social change. His recognition for the War on Nothing movement, which gained global attention, has allowed him to expand his reach and the impact of his mission. More Than Fashion, A Movement for Change Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. is redefining the relationship between fashion and philanthropy. By prioritizing impact over profit, the company is creating a brand that offers more than just products, it provides a platform for real change. Every hoodie, shirt, and piece of merchandise sold helps fund initiatives that directly support vulnerable people both locally and globally. The brand has already garnered a loyal following, and its mission continues to grow. With more awareness and support, Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co. is poised to make a lasting difference in the world of mental health and beyond. About Mentally Chill Lifestyle Co.

BeFound Social CEO Announces Industry Shift: AI to Split Marketing Agencies Into Two Groups
The Future of Marketing Agencies According to Muhammad Maarij Zeeshan, founder and CEO of BeFound Social LLC, a marketing agency specializing in AI-powered solutions for B2B companies globally, the traditional marketing agency model is at risk of becoming obsolete within the next 36 months. In his recent analysis, Zeeshan explains that AI will not eliminate marketing agencies entirely, but rather push them toward two distinct paths: automation-intensive or production-intensive. The Industry Divide: Automation-Intensive vs. Production-Intensive Zeeshan highlights that the future of marketing agencies hinges on their ability to adapt. Agencies that attempt to be generalists offering a broad range of services will struggle to keep up with automation. Those that fail to choose a clear path could find themselves outpaced by more specialized firms. "The traditional SMMA model is dead," Zeeshan states. "Agencies will either become automation-intensive leveraging AI to run marketing at scale or production-intensive, focusing on what AI can't do yet, like mass creative production and personal branding. There's no middle ground anymore." The Two Paths Forward According to Zeeshan's analysis, the marketing industry is splitting into two distinct categories: Automation-Intensive Agencies: These firms use AI-powered tools to handle lead qualification, nurturing, and conversion at scale. They build systems that run 24/7 without constant manual intervention, operating as complete marketing departments rather than specialists. Production-Intensive Agencies: These agencies focus on creative output AI cannot replicate high-touch personal branding, mass creative production for platforms like TikTok and Instagram, and strategic consulting that requires human intuition and relationship building. "Businesses don't need 'a Facebook ads person' anymore," Zeeshan explained. "They need a flywheel running on autopilot. The ad copy matches the landing page, the landing page triggers the right automation, the automation routes to the right person, the follow-up happens in minutes not days. One gap in that system and you're leaking money." Real-World Application: The Full-Stack Model BeFound Social represents the automation-intensive path. The agency has built what Zeeshan calls a "full-stack marketing department" model integrating advertising, AI-powered automation workflows, CRM systems, and content strategy into unified systems for B2B service companies, coaches, and agencies. Unlike traditional agencies that specialize in one element and force clients to coordinate between multiple freelancers, BeFound Social owns the entire funnel from traffic source to closed deal. "Most businesses still hire like it's 2015," Zeeshan noted. "A copywriter here, a designer there, a Facebook ads person, maybe an automation consultant. They end up with five freelancers who've never spoken to each other, systems that don't talk, and a funnel with twelve different leak points." The results speak to the model's effectiveness. BeFound Social has generated over $2 million in enterprise value for clients across 10+ countries, delivering measurable success for businesses in various industries without relying on venture capital funding. Key client outcomes include: Healthcare recruitment startup: Generated $1M+ pipeline, $150K in realized revenue, and secured $200K in VC funding within 18 months An AI automation agency who built over $500K+ pipeline through systematic email marketing, lead generation and automation Coaches, creators and service businesses generating over 10,000,000+ in impressions across multiple niches and platforms From Curiosity to Systems Thinking Zeeshan's path to this insight was unconventional. Four years ago, as a broke college student from a family of 9-to-5 employees with no entrepreneurial background, he offered free LinkedIn ghostwriting to founders, seeking to understand how successful entrepreneurs think differently. "Those sessions turned into something closer to therapy," Zeeshan recalled. "I worked with roughly 30 founders and discovered a pattern: brilliant people who struggled to make their vision accessible to regular people. That insight became the foundation helping businesses 'BE FOUND' through 'SOCIAL' media by making complex ideas understandable and actionable." That foundation evolved into BeFound Social's current model: full-stack marketing systems powered by AI automation platforms. Industry Recognition and Strategic Partnerships Zeeshan's analysis of the industry's evolution has gained attention beyond his client work. He was recently featured on "Founders Future," a podcast by Closers.io which is run by Cole Gordon, a renowned agency owner and sales expert, discussing the future of marketing agencies in the age of AI. In 2024-2025, BeFound Social secured strategic partnerships with Hexona Systems , a global AI automation agency with partnerships across Make.com, OpenAI, Zapier, and Grok. Maarij also co-launched an educational bootcamp with AI educator Hamza Baig , teaching the next generation of AI automation operators on how to build and sell AI Automations for businesses that need them. The Urgency of the Shift Zeeshan emphasizes that this industry split isn't theoretical - it's happening now. As AI capabilities expand and automation tools become more sophisticated, agencies that haven't chosen a path will find themselves competing against specialists who have. "We're at the tipping point," Zeeshan concluded. "The question isn't whether marketing agencies will adopt AI - it's whether they'll survive if they don't. Agencies need to decide: Are you building systems that run 24/7, or are you creating what AI can't replicate? Both paths can win. But trying to be everything to everyone? That's the path to obsolescence." What This Means for B2B Businesses For companies evaluating marketing partners, Zeeshan's analysis offers a framework: Determine whether you need systems that scale (automation-intensive) or creative production AI cannot match (production-intensive), then hire accordingly. "The old model of hiring an agency that 'does marketing' is dying," Zeeshan said. "Businesses need to get specific about what problem they're solving. Do you need a marketing department that runs on autopilot? Or do you need mass creative production and personal brand building? Those require different partners now." About BeFound Social LLC: BeFound Social LLC is an AI-powered marketing agency specializing in full-stack marketing systems for B2B service companies, coaches, creators, and agencies. Founded in 2021 by Muhammad Maarij Zeeshan, the agency serves clients globally offering services like Facebook advertising and lead generation, AI-powered automation workflows, conversion-optimized funnel systems, and strategic content creation for Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn. BeFound Social operates on a full-stack model, integrating traffic generation, lead qualification, nurturing, and conversion into unified marketing departments that run on autopilot.

Communication Challenges Don't Define Your Career Acker’s personal journey, from overcoming a speech impediment to becoming a sought-after corporate trainer and coach, has informed his approach to executive coaching. Raised in Mexico from the age of ten to eighteen, where Spanish was his second language, Acker learned firsthand the challenges of communication in a non-native language. This unique experience shaped his deep understanding of how communication barriers, whether caused by fear, cultural differences, or lack of experience, can hold professionals back. “Growing up in Mexico taught me what it feels like to struggle to be understood. That shaped everything I teach today,” Acker says. He encourages professionals to see communication as a skill that can be developed and refined, no matter the obstacles. Through his coaching and published works, Acker has helped countless professionals overcome their communication barriers. He has worked with healthcare leaders, technology professionals, and leadership teams across multiple industries, helping them increase clarity, presence, and confidence in high-stakes environments.

This method is specifically designed to uncover and address the root causes of health imbalances, providing real and sustainable results. “After years of seeing people struggle with traditional health programs that don’t deliver results, I realized that health and vitality after 50 require more than just motivation or willpower,” says Colombo. “What’s needed is personalized, data-driven strategies that provide clarity and precision. My method is about helping people regain their energy, balance their metabolism, and take control of their health in a way that suits their individual biology.” A Personalized Approach Rooted in Science What sets Colombo Personal Health Coaching apart from traditional wellness programs is the combination of scientific precision, personalized support, and a results-driven approach. Colombo begins each client’s journey with in-depth lab analysis, including blood markers, gut microbiota, neurotransmitter balance, and inflammation levels. These diagnostic tools provide invaluable insights into the client’s current health status, allowing Colombo to create a completely personalized plan that addresses their unique needs. “The science behind my approach is what makes it so effective,” says Colombo. “By understanding what’s going on inside the body, we can tailor a health plan that works with the individual’s physiology, not against it. This is the key to lasting change.” Clients then receive ongoing coaching with clearly defined milestones to track progress and make adjustments as needed. Colombo’s hands-on coaching style, combined with the precision of lab data, empowers clients to take actionable steps toward better health and wellness. Recognition and Proven Success In 2024, Colombo was awarded the Outstanding Leadership Award at the Health 2.0 Conference in Dubai , and in 2025, he received international recognition at the Las Vegas Health Conference for his innovative approach to health coaching. These accolades reflect his commitment to blending functional medicine, advanced diagnostics, and personalized health strategies to help clients achieve long-term success. “Being recognized for the originality and proven effectiveness of my method is truly humbling,” says Colombo. “I am passionate about helping professionals, entrepreneurs, and women in menopause regain their vitality and health, and I’m grateful that my work is making a difference on a global scale.” Helping Professionals Over 50 Live Their Best Life Mirko Colombo’s coaching system is designed specifically for busy professionals aged 50 to 65 who are struggling with their health. His clients, who often include high-level executives, entrepreneurs, and those facing the challenges of menopause, appreciate the tailored nature of his approach. These individuals are often at a stage where traditional weight loss or wellness programs no longer work, and they need a more strategic, personalized method that addresses the root causes of their health struggles. “Most people don’t need another diet. They need a method,” Colombo explains. “This is about empowering people to understand their body’s needs and take control of their health, rather than relying on generic advice that doesn’t work for them.” His program is grounded in scientific principles, but it is also highly compassionate, providing the support and accountability that clients need to succeed. Colombo’s clients often describe him as a trusted mentor who listens deeply, understands their struggles, and helps them create a clear, actionable plan for achieving their health goals. A Health Transformation That Lasts The holistic approach used in Colombo Personal Health Coaching addresses not just weight loss but overall health transformation. By focusing on the interconnectedness of gut health, inflammation, neurotransmitter balance, and other key factors, Colombo helps clients reclaim their energy, enhance mental clarity, improve digestion, and optimize their metabolic health. “I don’t just want my clients to lose weight,” says Colombo. “I want them to understand their bodies, restore their energy, and prevent chronic diseases. My goal is to help them achieve sustainable health results that last long after the program is over.” About Mirko Colombo and Colombo Personal Health Coaching Mirko Colombo is a Functional Medicine Health Coach and the founder of Colombo Personal Health Coaching .
