More About Kendra

With a background spanning more than two decades in wellness, fitness, and stress management, Kendra has dedicated her career to helping people simplify health and reclaim balance.

After experiencing her own severe burnout, she discovered that the most powerful solution wasn’t slowing down or following traditional stress-reduction advice—it was resetting differently.

Known for her clear, approachable style, she bridges the gap between science and real life—translating complex wellness concepts into simple, actionable tools that busy people can actually use.
