Meet Janet Appel
Janet is a Holistic Wellness Practitioner and Lifestyle Coach whose passion for wellness grew from her own personal journey.
Janet began her own holistic health journey in 1999. After the birth of her child, she lost approximately 50 pounds of pregnancy weight in 10 months and reports keeping it off. This is her personal experience, not a prediction of anyone else’s results.
Her philosophy is not centered on temporary diets. It is about helping people make realistic lifestyle changes they can maintain.

Janet’s approach is to work toward healthier everyday habits through education, encouragement and realistic changes.
Better understand nutrition and the foods that support your goals.
Develop habits that support greater energy and vitality.
Look beyond food to stress, sleep, movement, and everyday habits.
Create realistic changes you can continue long after a program ends.

What matters to you
Whether you’re hoping to sleep better, feel more energized, or work toward changes in your weight or inches, Janet offers general nutrition education, practical lifestyle guidance and accountability. Together, you can explore habits that fit your life—not promises of a particular result.
Living with inflammation, arthritis or gout? These concerns need guidance from a qualified healthcare professional. Janet’s coaching does not treat these conditions or provide medical nutrition therapy. She can offer general wellness education alongside—not instead of—your medical care.
