Words From Dr. Shauntel Peak-Jimenez:
"I have a passion to empower individuals to be the best version of themselves that they can be. I worked as a corporate on-site nurse until my job ended due to corporate downsizing in 2009. Since then, I have been blessed to launch a successful coach training company, provide coaching services, and do many other things that have impacted the lives of many others.
My vision was to create a holistic coaching and training company that serves individuals by not just addressing health and wellness concerns, but by catering to the individual as a whole, so that whole-life success can be achieved, and optimal well-being can be experienced.
I understand the importance of reducing stress and living happier. I have had a lot of stress blows as many of us had. Whether it was my mother passing suddenly, losing my job unexpectedly, my 2-week-old grandson passing away, or many other life stressors. I learned that if I didn't conquer stress, it was going to conquer me. Once I learned effective and positive coping strategies, I wanted to teach others. It saddens my heart that so many people have accepted living stressed out as an okay way of life. But it's not okay.
Stress is a silent killer and robs us of our joy, peace, and health. Chronic stress affects us in every area of our life, and it must be stopped or it will stop us! Now, maybe we can't stop stress all together, because we can't decide everything that happens to us in life, but we can decide how we deal with things."
