Meet Vikki LaBeau, her empowering story shows how taking control of your health can transform your life! Once on the path to bariatric surgery, Vikki discovered a low-fat, low-carb program that taught her how to lose weight and keep it off. Along the way, she was diagnosed with Metabolic Syndrome—giving her answers she had been searching for.

➡ Founder of TLD: Teach. Learn. Dedicate
Since opening the doors in 2015, Vikki has coached countless clients to live well, lose weight, and maintain a healthy lifestyle. TLD also offers a DNA kit with a Genetics Action Plan, tailoring nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle to each person’s unique genetic makeup.

➡ Author of Cancer Deception: Lean into the Message Behind the Truth
After a stage 3 colon cancer diagnosis, Vikki chose a different path—one focused on prayer, healing, and understanding her body. Her journey inspired her to write Cancer Deception: Lean into the Message Behind the Truth, where she shares her perspective on healing and medical treatment.

Meet Arden Janke, a trainer at The Woodlands Country Club, who brings energy, knowledge, and passion to her clients. With years of experience and a personal gym license obtained at 22, Arden shares her top tips for a healthier, stronger you.

✨ Arden’s Top Tips for Wellness:

• Prioritize Recovery and Posture: "We put our body through so much. It needs time to recover," says Arden. Restful sleep, proper stretching, and maintaining good posture are essential. Bad posture, like slouching or leaning over your phone, can harm your body’s structure and function. Arden recommends doing bridges to stretch and improve posture.

• Fuel Your Body Right: "What you put in you is making you." Shop the perimeter of the grocery store to find fresh fruits, veggies, and proteins, and avoid canned and overly processed foods for a healthier body.

• Move and Build Muscle: Regular movement and muscle building are key to overall wellness. While change doesn’t happen overnight, the journey to a healthier body is worth it!

🎨✨ From the wild beauty of Caprock Canyons to the heart of Houston’s historic arts district, artist Holly Nowak’s creative journey is one of resilience, transformation, and passion. A fifth-generation Texan, wife, and mother, Holly finds joy in the experimental process of creation—whether it’s acrylic, oil, watercolor, or illustration.

A pivotal encounter with a bull bison during a solo camping trip inspired her to leave a decade-long career and pursue her dreams as a professional artist. Despite facing setbacks, including a devastating fire that destroyed her artwork in 2022, Holly found healing through art, teaching, and the kindness of others. 🤍

Now, she shares her passion through workshops and retreats in Texas and Italy, empowering others to embrace their creativity and find joy in the process.
