Natalie KrachtCEO/OwnerI am a health and fitness enthusiast who recently left the corporate world to open a small coffee shop that happens to have some pretty awesome smoothies too!
I live in Grundy Center with my husband, Shawn and youngest daughter Emerson. I am also mother to Kaylie Appel of Hudson, IA. Her significant other Dan made our cool metal coffee sign that will soon hang outside our front door. My son Austin and his wife, Katie also live in Grundy and are expecting their first child in September! Yes, I will be a Grandma! In my free time I enjoy hanging out with friends while enjoying a cocktail or two as well as traveling with my daughter’s club volleyball, working out and running. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications and a Masters degree in Healthcare Administration. |
