Hi, I’m Caden Southard—a husband, father of two boys, gamer, and the creator of Protein Cafe. My life is grounded in faith and family, and I understand what it’s like to work full time, raise children, and try to make your health fit into an already packed schedule.

I’m an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, Nutritionist, and Online Coach with a culinary arts degree and more than seven years of experience across fitness, supplements, nutrition coaching, food, sales, and leadership. I created Protein Cafe to help busy people get healthier, stronger, and more consistent without making fitness their entire life.

My approach is simple: prioritize protein, choose realistic movement, make room for family and the things you enjoy, and focus on progress rather than perfection. Whether you’re a busy parent, gamer, or simply ready to get back on track, you’re welcome here.

Let’s build better habits and become 1% better every day.
