Today we’d like to introduce you to Louise Valentine.
Hi Louise, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am a Physiologist, award-winning health expert, military spouse, and founder of BreakingThroughWellness.com. While today I’m a strong runner, I spent my youth being told I was destined for disease and that I wasn’t built to run. This motivated me to earn 15+ credentials and win awards as a leader in health and fitness.
Over 20 years, I’ve worked in the NFL, research, gyms, and doctors’ offices. However, my biggest takeaway came from reversing my own hormone, precancer & bone diseases: Women can achieve ANY goal if we keep it simple, realistic for our life, and work with our female body’s needs!
Today, I empower women age 35 and over who want to run their best, unlock vibrant health and fitness, or thrive through perimenopause with:
-up-to-date women’s health, fitness & performance science
-time-saving solutions & hacks specific to your goals, body’s needs & lifestyle
-customized tools & resources, so you know how to sustain your success!
I provide the dedicated support I wish I would’ve had in my journey so women don’t have to waste any time or energy in theirs!
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Being a military spouse who’s relocated 9 times in 12 years has been my biggest challenge. However, I also feel it makes me a very resilient women entrepreneur! I have had the opportunity to work with an incredibly diverse set of people throughout the U.S. and work throughout the wellness industry, from the NFL, to research, with our nation’s most ill and with everyday women who want to feel their best. Being a career-driven military spouse has empowered me to provide a high level of service that achieves fast results for my clients!
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Breaking Through Wellness?
Breaking Through Wellness is a hybrid virtual and in-person business. I blend my 15+ degrees and credentials to empower women over 35 to unlock their best health, fitness, running, and resilience despite a busy life or obstacles! I provide customized fitness programming, nutrition, holistic health, and mind-body resilience coaching, which helps women find what works best for their body’s needs and lifestyle! I offer a 4-month program called Badass Breakthrough Academy, frequently hold women’s health and fitness virtual events, and provide in-person massage therapy. Women who are looking for expert insights and detailed support can receive a free consult at www.breakingthroughwellness.com.
Where do you see things going in the next 5-10 years?
I’m most excited to continue to provide my clients a high level of support. I love seeing women rewrite their 35+ story to be their most strong, fit, and resilient years yet! I’ll continue to speak in my local community, develop new seminars and resources for Breaking Through Wellness, and perhaps author a second best-selling book. Finally, I’ll continue to serve within my local community as a youth running coach and co-lead a Women in Health Sciences Leadership board at my alma mater, The University of Massachusetts Amherst.
