About Markell + HealthySoul
Markell Williams | Founder, HealthySoul & Nutrition + Health + Wellness Coach
In 2014, I found myself at a crossroads—personally and professionally. I was unhappy with my career and unhappy with my overall health and wellness. I decided to take a leap, go after one of my long-time passions and begin my masters in Nutrition and Integrative Health. I also took back the reins and regained control of my health.
I changed my mindset, optimized my diet, increased physical activity, improved stress management, and self-care. It was a journey. A journey that I continue today. Did it happen overnight? No. It was / is a step-by-step process. With the right support system, strategies, commitment, persistence, and determination—anything is possible.
At HealthySoul, my mission is using my experiences with body image, weight management, emotional eating, and digestive issues to empower my clients to reach, if not exceed their health and wellness goals. It’s imperative that I know your story, where you are now, and where you’re trying to go. I pride myself on building partnerships with my clients and creating health and wellness plans that uniquely address their needs.
HealthySoul is also committed to being a trusted, dependable resource for the community—especially in areas where access to quality health and wellness information and services is limited (or non-existent). Giving back to the community is a necessity. I welcome the opportunity to connect with other health and wellness practitioners, leaders, businesses, and community organizations to create programs, workshops, and other events to empower communities to own their health.
Whether it’s one-on-one coaching sessions, group sessions, or community health and wellness events, I’ve got your back.
Remember, a healthy soul is a wealthy soul. Let’s journey on!
