Meet the leaders

  • I’m the proud owner of Transform Wellness and the creator of our award-winning 10-week Transform Wellness Plan. As a qualified chiropractor, functional medicine practitioner, public speaker, author, and passionate wellness advocate, I’ve dedicated my career to helping thousands of patients transform their health, reverse chronic illnesses, and overcome pain.

    It has always been my dream to create a space where individuals can fully immerse themselves in their health journey.

    Transform retreat was created out of my passion for complete wellness. Working with a group of people in our stunning location gives my clients an opportunity to reflect, relax and think differently. It's my mission to inspire and educate my guests to leave a different person and take their health to new heights for the long term.
