Nathalie Francois was born in Belgium and raised in a health conscious, artistic, and spiritual environment. At a young age she was introduced to an intensive yoga practice incorporating meditation and Eastern philosophies. This upbringing has been an influential and integral part of her ongoing life’s journey.
In 1999 Nathalie independently moved to Manhattan, NYC to learn the art of city living through furniture restoration and yoga. In 2001 she became involved in the alternative health and wellness sector. Managing a holistic wellness practice substantially added to her knowledge of wellness, wellbeing, nutrition, diet, homeopathy, biofeedback, happiness, spirituality and multiple alternative health care modalities.
In 2006 Nathalie started up her own business, Wholesome Life LLC., with the vision of assisting individuals in living wholesome and balanced lives. Recognising that physical health is a result of mental, emotional and spiritual well-being she wanted to integrate and address all aspects of holistic health. Defining health as living a wholesome and happy life, Wholesome Life LLC. offers several services to assist you in balancing your body, mind and spirit.
In 2009 she started her coach training at iPEC, Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching to add to her already well-rounded bag of tricks. Like most professional certification programs, it offered a solid foundation but it is her continued curiosity and diligence over the past 10 years that have made her a unique coach with an expertise in (self-)care, wellbeing and adventure. Wholesome Coaching effectively combines her knowledge and vast experiences to work intensively with clients and empower them to create the happy, fulfilling, and meaningful lives they aspire.
In 2020 she established this website to make life coaching skills accessible and affordable to anyone struggling with all the sudden changes the Covid-19 pandemic has brought upon us. In August 2021 her 40 day self-coaching program RESET: A FLIGHT ATTENDANT’S PRACTICAL GUIDE TO BEING GROUNDED THROUGH TURBULENT TIMES was published as a book. In 2024 her second book RENEW was published bundling together two more unique self-coaching programs into one life-coaching workbook.
RESET RENEW REFRESH YOUR LIFE TO WHOLESOME, ONE DAY, ONE WEEK, OR ONE MONTH AT A TIME.
Feel Good. Be Good. Do Good.
