Hi, I’m Petrena Wood,

I’m an HR professional and Certified Wellness Coach, guiding women to embrace a holistic approach to wellness and self care that eases stress and breaks the burnout cycle for good.

As a devoted professional and mom, I’ve had to learn, often the hard way, how to balance career goals with caring for my family, nurturing friendships, succeeding at work, and most importantly, caring for myself.

To be completely honest, I only reached this place after a serious health scare.

For years, I poured countless hours into my career, constantly multitasking, pushing aside my personal values, skimping on sleep, and neglecting movement. In my relentless drive to achieve, I hit a wall and crashed. Without realizing it, I had become a card carrying member of the “do it all” club.

The truth is, I felt the strain mentally, but I didn’t take it seriously until my body started to break down. Suddenly, my own wellbeing wasn’t optional, it was a necessity.

When my health collapsed, I had to let go of the belief that giving 110% to work and family meant sacrificing myself. I realized empathy does not require over giving, ambition does not require over working, and success does not require doing it all.

Instead, I chose to get clear on my values, redefine success, and place self care at the center of my life.
