From Health Battles to Empowering Wellness
We’ve all heard the saying, “Health is wealth,” but what happens when your health is taken from you—repeatedly?
For Jess Faulds, a certified holistic nutrition coach and cycle instructor based in Calgary, this was her reality.
Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at the age of 15, surviving Legionnaires’ disease at 25, and undergoing a life-saving stem cell transplant at 27, Jess’s path to wellness has been anything but ordinary.
Yet, it’s these very challenges that have shaped her into the resilient woman she is today—determined to help other women find their balance, vitality, and strength in the face of life’s chaos.
Rebuilding From the Inside Out
Jess’s story starts with adversity but it’s defined by resilience.
She didn’t just survive the chronic health issues that came her way, she thrived.
After her stem cell transplant, which led her into early menopause, Jess found herself in a place where she had to rebuild not just her physical health but also her mental and emotional well-being.
It wasn’t easy, but through nutrition, movement, and mindset, she found a way to heal herself.
Her experience isn’t just the backdrop to her business, it’s the very foundation of it.
Jess’s goal is simple: to help women feel vibrant, capable, and empowered, no matter what health challenges life throws at them.
Through science-based nutrition coaching, fitness instruction, and wellness strategies that focus on real-life solutions, Jess guides her clients toward building lasting energy and confidence.
For Jess, it’s not about being perfect; it’s about being consistent and intentional.
How Jess Found Her Own Rhythm
Despite the challenges Jess faced, she never stopped pursuing her passion for wellness.
But like so many of us, she had to face her own limiting factors, such as balancing life, and learning to prioritize.
During the pandemic, Jess faced a career crossroads: a toxic office culture led her to a mental health leave of absence, a forced pause that allowed her to reevaluate her life.
This time out was a blessing in disguise, giving her the clarity to rediscover her love for teaching cycle classes and for helping others improve their health.
It was through this period of reflection and self-care that Jess found her rhythm—a balance between teaching fitness classes, running her wellness business, and working in an office job she enjoys.
Today, she’s focused on creating a life that aligns with her energy and her passion for empowering others to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
A Simple Approach to Wellness
At the heart of Jess’s business is a simple, science-based approach to health that removes the overwhelm many women feel about wellness.
She understands that navigating through the noise of diet culture, hormonal changes, or chronic fatigue can be confusing.
That’s why she offers straightforward solutions—no extremes, no guilt, and no burnout.
Her approach is about making wellness sustainable, so women can build a foundation that supports long-term health without feeling like they have to do it all at once.
For Jess, true wellness is not about perfection—it’s about empowerment.
She wants her clients to know that even on tough days, they can feel good in their bodies, without feeling like they’re constantly striving for an unrealistic ideal.
Finding Wellness and Purpose
Jess’s journey is a testament to what happens when you lean into your challenges rather than let them define you.
She has learned to embrace balance, prioritizing rest and self-care as much as she prioritizes work and passion.
Through time management, setting boundaries, and nurturing her own health, Jess has found a way to be present for both herself and her clients.
Her story isn’t just about overcoming adversity—it’s about creating a life that feels aligned, balanced, and purposeful.
