About NEWLAND WELLNESS
My BE WELL Approach is based on practical ways to take better care of ourselves – body, mind and soul.
Body: Through holistic, integrative information from sources in the functional medicine community.
Mind: Through practices of gratitude, manifestation and positive thinking.
Soul: Through the awareness of what our bodies and our lives are telling us.
It opens us up to feel control, power and peace – which all stems from within.
And within these practical ways is the element of practice. It is a daily process and daily reminder to help ourselves – and embrace ourselves as only we can.
This is a place to land that will lend support, guidance, hope, understanding, security, and inspiration.
An outlet to share, both allowing you to receive as well as give, as you become independent and stronger, both physically and mentally.
As you head in a NEW direction, together, it’s time to open the mind to NEW thoughts, ideas and concepts…
My intention is for you to see your beauty inside and out. And to realize your full potential. Where you make the second half of life the best half regardless of your first half.
And you discover your NEW YOUth – and who you are now meant to be.
Everything is rigged in your favor…

Meet MICHELE
When life happens, shift happens – if you choose. Having been on a spiritual journey (on and off) since she was young, when Michele’s life blew up, she decided she would make peace from broken pieces.
Michele was with her “soul mate” for 29 years until he left for something more. She had been a stay-at-home mom with two children moving into adulthood. And had just reentered the workforce, part-time, trying to figure out where her life was taking her.
It took Michele down a path that she could not have imagined. Having never supported herself or even lived on her own, she was now left to move into a NEW role.
Moving forward turning to what resources she had, Michele learned to embrace change through coping tools which she now deems my “BE WELL Approach”.
Michele knows firsthand what it is like to feel alone, uncertain, even scared and she realized that there are other women out there feeling the same way. And with this vision, she created NEWLAND WELLNESS and its membership community NEW-BE, which is all about a NEW way to BE.
Michele spent five years as one of the top leaders for Weight Watchers (WW). It was there that she discovered her passion for helping others take a soulful journey to their best self. She learned that people came into the center looking to lose weight, but really needed to love themselves. The meetings she led went to a deeper level, not solely on how to work the program, but why one wasn’t working it and how to overcome the self-sabotage.
This made Michele want to go deeper level herself and she entered a 12-month online educational program. Now Michele is a functional medicine certified health coach through the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy (FMCA), in collaboration with the Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM). She also holds a board certification as a health and wellness coach through the National Board for Health & Wellness Coaching (NBHWC), a nonprofit affiliate of the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME).
