Our Story

The founder and executive director of Esteem, A Total Transformation got her start in 2006, when she offered her services at her local church. As people began to see results with her holistic techniques, Esteem was born. 

Esteem is dedicated to providing the Greensboro community with comprehensive holistic health and wellness consulting services. Our wellness coach will work with you on a physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional level to help you take back the reins and turn your life around. Esteem uses only natural methods of healing.  If you're on prescription drugs, our consultant will provide alternative solutions that may provide a natural source of healing. Because we understand that health and wellness isn't one-size-fits-all, every wellness package is customized to fit your specific needs and lifestyle.

The ESTEEM, A Total Transformation mission is to address disparities in health and wellness by providing comprehensive, holistic programs focused on preventing and rehabilitating chronic illnesses. Through education, advocacy, and community engagement, we aim to empower communities to lead healthier lives and overcome barriers to optimal well-being.

We envision vibrant and resilient communities that prioritize preventive care, embrace healthy lifestyles, and provide support systems for individuals to thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally.
