Karen Wachs
OWNER & CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH
Through one-on-one coaching and educational group events, I partner with my clients to create long-lasting, sustainable change to their wellness. My passion and experience for this was born out of personal experience trying to make sense of a confusing and overwhelming health world. After years of support gaps in my own story, I decided to make a change. Now I come alongside people like you to provide the support I needed when I was in the lows of my journey to true wellness.

My Journey To
Health Coaching
I became a certified health coach because I know firsthand how isolating the health journey can be.
I’ve battled thyroid cancer, melanoma, autoimmune disorders, chronic inflammation, infertility, pregnancy losses, and other unexplained health issues.
These diagnoses and “unexplainable” symptoms left me feeling like my body was working against me. I sat in waiting rooms, hoping for clarity, only to leave with more questions than answers. Even with a team of wonderful doctors, the term “unexplained” was used so often. I wanted to understand the cause of all of my conditions. Yet, the medications piled up, and no one could tell me why this was happening.
So, I started researching, questioning, and piecing together my health history. I began to uncover an integrative approach to my health that finally started to make sense. Why? It considered my root causes, not just symptoms.
In this process, I learned how to advocate for myself, maximize my doctor’s visits, and make informed decisions about my health. I finally started seeing real change. More energy, less inflammation, and a stronger, more resilient body.
And in this beautiful season of true wellness, I knew I wanted to help others find true, lasting wellness, too.
This is my motivation for helping YOU.
