The story behind Global Glow

Integrative Nutrition Practitioner. Entrepreneur. Mother of Three. Author. Longevity Advocate.
For nearly a decade, I have guided hundreds of clients around the world who were experiencing weight gain, low energy, lack of vitality, stress, disrupted sleep, fluctuating hormones, inconsistent routines and the persistent feeling that something was off, without knowing where to start.
Over time, I began to notice the same pattern. People were rarely lacking information. They were surrounded by it. They had tried different diets, supplements, routines and wellness trends, yet still struggled to understand what mattered most or how to make meaningful changes fit into their everyday life.
My own experience made that pattern deeply personal.
At 31, I was diagnosed with early-onset rheumatoid arthritis. I experienced firsthand the fear, fatigue and uncertainty that can follow a life-changing diagnosis. Alongside medical care, I began exploring how nutrition, movement, sleep, stress and environment could better support my everyday health. I have been medicine-free since 2011.
That experience changed the way I understood long-term health. I realised that no single habit exists in isolation. Sleep can influence energy. Stress can shape the choices we make. Our environment, responsibilities and routines can affect what we are realistically able to sustain.
With training in Lifestyle Medicine, I founded Global Glow for people who feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, frustrated by short-term solutions or disconnected from the way they want to feel.
Through the Optimise Method, I help individuals understand the wider patterns surrounding their health, identify what deserves attention first and turn personalised guidance into realistic, sustainable action.
My mission is simple: to help people stop guessing, understand their bodies more clearly and build the foundations for greater vitality, resilience and long-term health.
Just as no part of life exists in isolation, health cannot be understood through one symptom, one habit or one solution alone. The whole picture matters.

Psychology. Behavioural Insight. Systems. Implementation.
Katarina Kupcikova, COO
Katarina has spent more than eight years supporting individuals through the everyday challenges that can make health guidance difficult to apply and leave them unsure where to begin.
Her work is also shaped by personal experience. After struggling with cystic acne and the impact it had on her confidence and wellbeing, she explored how nutrition, movement, nervous system regulation and stress management could better support her health. Through these changes, she cleared her skin and has remained acne-free for eight years, an experience that reinforced her belief in looking at the wider picture rather than one concern in isolation.
With a BSc in Psychology, certification as an Integrative Nutrition Practitioner and training in Lifestyle Medicine, Katarina brings together behavioural understanding, health education and operational strategy.
As Chief Operating Officer, she leads the systems and operations behind Global Glow, turning personalised guidance into a clear and consistent experience that supports implementation, accountability and continuity across individual, patient and clinic pathways.
