Elysia Smith, NBC-HWC

I began my journey into health and wellness after losing my father to cancer at a young age. I was driven to learn and understand what a healthy lifestyle looked like, to live from the mindset of prevention instead of treatment.

I was born into a large extended family in Iowa, surrounded by so many aunts, uncles, and cousins that I lost count and loved every minute of it! Growing up in such a close-knit community instilled in me a strong sense of connection and belonging—something that ultimately led me to a path of caring for others.

My passion and purpose are deeply rooted in service. As a health coach, I create a safe and supportive space where individuals can navigate their journey toward becoming the best version of themselves. I guide and encourage them to achieve their goals, one step at a time, fostering lasting and meaningful change.

California is now my home, and while I cherish my Midwest roots, I can’t say I miss those long Iowa winters!
