A variety of AFPA college students and grads have unbelievable data, actual consumer wins, and a ardour to impression extra individuals. What they don’t all the time have is a straightforward solution to flip that worth into one thing purchasers can use many times, even exterior of periods. That’s the place publishing might be highly effective, not as an enormous life purpose, however as a sensible solution to help individuals, construct credibility, and prolong your impression.
AFPA graduate Kim Logan, a Intestine Well being Vitamin Specialist and creator of Intestine Well being Made Easy: Your Each day Tracker, did precisely that. She turned her expertise and evidence-based coaching right into a 30-day guided tracker designed to assist readers establish patterns affecting their intestine well being and make extra knowledgeable, sustainable selections. Right here’s how she introduced the venture to life, what the method actually appeared like, and why creating your personal useful resource is perhaps extra achievable than you suppose.
Kim Logan is the founding father of Grammy Going Inexperienced, a wellness enterprise devoted to creating intestine well being and anti inflammatory dwelling really feel easy, reasonable, and doable. By means of her YouTube channel Intestine Well being Made Easy, she shares science-backed schooling and sensible life-style methods to help individuals managing persistent irritation and autoimmune-related challenges.
Intestine Well being Made Easy: Your Each day Tracker is one among her newest initiatives, a 30-day guided journal designed to assist readers establish patterns affecting their intestine well being, with built-in suggestions and sources to help knowledgeable, sustainable wellness selections.
What sort of suggestions have you ever acquired from individuals utilizing the tracker?
Previous to publishing, I supplied a free PDF model of the tracker to pals, household, and colleagues for sincere suggestions. This led to 21 5-star critiques inside weeks of publishing. The general sentiment is Intestine Well being Made Easy: Your Each day Tracker is easy-to-use, eye-opening, and a game-changer for total well being.
Probably the most significant consequence that I’ve seen to date is from the consumer who impressed me to jot down the e-book. Although she has by no means offered with digestive or autoimmune points, she has suffered from persistent nervousness and panic assaults for many of her life. In recent times, by way of stress and poor consuming habits, she gained 50+ kilos. As a result of a lot of my social media focuses on meals and its impression on intestine well being, she got here to me in search of a “weight loss plan.” I defined that we might be working by way of extra of a sustainable life-style “improve” slightly than a fad.
Once I began compiling movies and free guides that I’ve created for stress, anti-inflammatory meals selections, sleep administration, motivation, motion, and many others., I noticed it could be useful to compile this info in a single place together with common self-assessments and every day tracker pages, so individuals may establish triggers AND selections that work for themselves.
This explicit consumer reported again inside the week that, whereas she nonetheless had nervousness, she was in a position to handle it extra successfully with out going into full panic assaults (suggesting the gut-brain connection). Inside a month, she had misplaced 11 kilos. She remains to be sending me movies of her new recipes that always embody prebiotic fiber and cultured probiotics.
How did finishing the Intestine Well being Vitamin Specialist Certificates form the best way you approached this venture?
With out this program, I might not have the credibility to jot down and publish this e-book. My curiosity in intestine well being stemmed from private expertise with an autoimmune illness. My physician didn’t advocate that I make any dietary or life-style modifications to handle the situation, so I did it alone after studying a e-book referred to as Intestine Examine by Dr. Steven Gundry. As soon as I acknowledged the impact my intestine well being had on my situation, I needed to grasp the science and analysis out there, and in some way I discovered AFPA! From there, I used to be in a position to study extra about what occurred to me and started to assist others.
What particular data or frameworks from AFPA confirmed up immediately in your e-book?
The e-book highlights the impression that weight loss plan, motion, stress administration, and prioritizing sleep has on the intestine microbiome. These 4 aspects have been elementary to the Intestine Well being Vitamin Specialist program and have given me a strong construction when working with/presenting to others.
What did the Amazon publishing course of really appear to be for you?
To start, I used to be not conscious that to self-publish on Amazon, I needed to undergo Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP Amazon) which required an account setup. From there, I watched movies particular to the kind of e-book I used to be publishing (low content material due the tracker pages). Right here, I additionally discovered about “bleed” and the way that will have an effect on printing. The method was pretty easy however required quite a lot of manhours. As a result of my e-book has tracker pages, I wanted graphics, so I created the design in Canva with particular measurement parameters. Then, I downloaded the PDF and uploaded that to KDP Amazon.
At this level, I used to be guided to pick out title, creator(s), classes, key phrases, print particulars, and many others. As soon as all of this was verified, I uploaded my content material then was given the choice to create my cowl by way of KDP or create my very own. I selected to create and add my very own cowl. I used to be in a position to launch a preview and approve from there.
Publishing is just one a part of the method, nonetheless. To be a profitable creator, there must be a strong plan for advertising.
How lengthy did it realistically take from thought to printed?
I can let you know the precise time as a result of it was an e mail that I despatched that impressed me to create the tracker! On 10/6/2025, I compiled a number of of my YouTube movies together with some free guides for a consumer. I had despatched the identical info to a special consumer the day earlier than and likewise despatched her a meals journal from Amazon. I noticed that gifting purchasers meals journals was not going to be price efficient, and that’s when the thought of compiling the data together with 30 days of every day monitoring pages was born! Intestine Well being Made Easy: Your Each day Tracker was printed on 11/17/2025. The caveats to this reply are: I already had created the movies and free guides which can be included within the e-book, so that point is just not included in idea-to-publish, AND if I have been to do it over, I might have spent extra time on the duvet and launch.
What was more durable than anticipated? What was simpler than anticipated?
I might say the method was extra tedious than anticipated—that means many little components to the method and frustrations alongside the best way. However, the choice to publish on Amazon makes the method simpler.
If somebody is intimidated by self-publishing, what would you inform them truthfully?
My sincere reply is the publishing half is just not one thing to be intimidated by. It’s the advertising half that’s troublesome, humbling, takes intentional effort, and presumably requires a monetary funding. That’s the place I’m proper now.
How does it really feel to see your identify on a e-book individuals should buy, use, and profit from?
It’s a sense of accomplishment as a result of I do know that I caught out by way of the method of making one thing that WILL really assist individuals.
Many AFPA college students dream of writing a e-book however by no means begin. What’s the most important mindset shift that helped you progress from “sometime” to “performed”?
For me, the shift was that I’ve skilled and discovered the science about one thing that may assist others. Sure, I can doubtlessly make cash from e-book gross sales, however the worth of what’s inside far outweighs the value of this e-book.

By means of this text, I’ll ultimately market a web-based course (which is taking me for much longer to provide than publishing the e-book). Moreover, as soon as I start working extra recurrently with one-on-one purchasers, the e-book will function our framework (and might be a part of their consumer package deal). Lastly, as a result of there are YouTube movies included, I hope to extend view time and subscribers on my channel Intestine Well being Made Simple.
