We ❤️ humans.

relatable
approachable
connected
People want to hear it.
It adds value to their lives. They want to know your thoughts, your processes, and how to make it work for them.
People can’t be what they can’t see, you are the guide the public sees.

The Founders
We are Happy People
We choose happy.
We are real humans who have a passion for living healthy in the midst of real life! We’re not always perfect, in fact, we’re almost never perfect, but health isn’t about perfect so it’s okay. What matters is that we feel great and we’re having fun as we grow in our health journey every day.
Michelle Johnson Jerome
Michelle Johnson Jerome, a yoga instructor since 2008, a personal trainer since 2009, and a master nutrition coach since 2018. She also has several degrees, one in Marketing and one in Advertising with a minor in Communications.
She has a talent for helping people see possibilities in hard places so they go from wishing life was better to living a life full of happy choices. The first time she heard the saying “When you know better you do better” by Maya Angelou it created a huge perspective shift as well as becoming her all-time favorite quote. The quote reminds Michelle, it is ok to let go of perfection and embrace what is while learning what can be, without beating yourself up. Her friends and clients call her a wacky and fun-loving optimist. There is a time to live in the box, yet Michelle finds her most productive times are when the box is nowhere in sight.
When not working for Balanced Healthstyles, Michelle is a mother of 4 children, wife to a sexy better than Johnny Depp look-a-like, and pet mom to a very talkative Siamese cat, the best 7lb cheerleader in fur form little Porky (a mix of Pomeranian and Yorkshire Terrier), and a very calm and loving red lab. Within the business of her life, she also finds time to enjoy reading and listening to records.
Above all else, Michelle would like to be known as a person who cares deeply, laughs loudly, smiles often, and sees your potential.
Heather Lynn Darby
Heather Lynn Darby has been coaching since 2012. As a master nutrition coach and certified personal trainer, she holds numerous nutrition and fitness coaching qualifications from certifying institutions including National Academy of Sports Medicine, Precision Nutrition, American Posture Institute, and National Corporate Fitness Association.
After overcoming her own health challenges related to chronic stress, she's committed to using her experiences to encourage others toward lasting changes in their lives.
Heather is a perpetual learner, always seeking to find the balance between evidence-based [interventions, action steps] and empathetic communication which helps people work toward their goals in a way that fits into the context of their real life.
Her unique superpower is untangling knots, both literal and metaphorical. As Robert Frost once said, "I am not a teacher, but an awakener."
When not immersed in the internet or a book, she enjoys riding her bike around town, kitchen gardening, and brewing kombucha. Heather plans to live to 100+, and as a lifelong fan of space-operas and inspired by the Mars projects, she intends to live off-world one day.
