About Catherine

Welcome to Shine Coaching!

I’m Dr. Catherine Chatal, a former plastic surgeon and integrative medicine physician who found my true passion in empowering women over 50 to achieve sustainable weight loss and vibrant health.

After decades of helping patients in the medical field, I realized that true transformation begins from within. My own journey with weight loss—nearly 100 pounds overall, including 35 pounds post-menopause—taught me the power of mindset, lifestyle changes, and the value of compassionate support. This deeply personal experience inspired me to pivot my career and dedicate myself to coaching women just like you.

With advanced training in integrative medicine, health and wellness coaching, and years of hands-on experience, I’ve combined science-backed strategies with a holistic, personalized approach to weight loss. My goal is to guide you in creating lasting changes that align with your values and vision for your life.

What sets Shine Coaching apart?

I focus on more than just numbers on a scale. My coaching is about helping you build a sustainable, joyful relationship with food, movement, and self-care, so you can feel empowered, confident, and energized in every area of your life.

A little more about me:

I’m passionate about plant-based eating and the concept of calorie density, which played a crucial role in my own transformation.

I believe in meeting you where you are, without judgment, and celebrating your unique journey.

When I’m not coaching, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, preparing nourishing meals, or cheering on my favorite sports teams!

Are you ready to thrive beyond 50?

Let’s create a life where you feel your best every day!
