Leslie, R.N., NBC-HWC
Integrative Health Coach
I have blended my experience in performance and facilitating multi-cultural experiential learning with my nursing and health coaching education to allow me to partner with and empower individuals to enhance their overall wellbeing. My studies with Dr. Andrew Weil at The Center for Integrative Medicine, and Dr. Sood's Stress Management and Resiliency Training has given me helpful tools that allow discovery of purpose and meaning as the foundation of health, and evidenced based techniques and resources to truly create transformation in multiple areas of one's life. We are dynamic and complex individuals, and thus my approach to wellness comes from multiple angles including nutrition, sleep, stress, mindset, environment and so much more.
