335: Daniele Della Valle on Death Doulas & the Energetic Side of Healing

Daniele Della Valle is a Certified Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Founder & CEO of Your Wellness Academy™️, Co-Founder of WellnessCon, Author of Happy Weight, Public Speaker, Nutrition Education Program Writer, Instructor and Mentor.

Having worked in the food, beverage, retail and service industries for the past 20 years, Daniele has had an invaluable experience that greatly contributes to her now profession as an FNTP, CEO of YOWA™️ and Instructor for the Nutritional Therapy Association. After Daniele transitioned into nutrition she was hired immediately with a medical Keto clinic as the principle nutrition specialist, helping the company to rewrite and train on their national menu. Knowing her resources and flexibility with clients was limited, she went on to open a private practice so that she could dig deeper into chronic conditions.

Once Daniele started to notice the body image issues and diet obsession she wrote Happy Weight. Hoping to reach a wider audience with her message she started a podcast, and became a public speaker and educator. Once she got deeper into what she felt was needed in the wellness industry YOWA™️ was born. She is also the creator of the Sacred Feminine Academy. She is now connected all over the world inspiring people and wellness professionals.

Her love to heal and be of service to others is clear when you meet her, her heart knows no bounds. Daniele's hope is that she can work hard to help everyone feel validated and supported through every aspect of their journey to health and wellness.
