I Launched a Podcast!
Certified Coach Alethea Felton discusses candid holistic health techniques to help you fulfill your mind, body, and soul wellness goals simply and practically. Due to her own past challenges - including a time when her life was on the verge of death - Coach Alethea decided to make intentional, gradual changes of healing beyond the physical. Thus, her journey of holistic healing and empowerment was birthed. From anti-inflammatory eating, improving finances, spicing up your love life, maintaining work-life balance, lots of laughs, and so much more, this podcast takes a trendier perspective on health and wellness along with interviews from diverse guests. Additionally, each episode begins and ends with an affirmation to help you challenge and conquer self-sabotaging and negative thoughts in order to improve wellness and make powerful, transformative changes daily.
