Company Detail:

L I T Wellness Solutions is an award-winning health and wellness consulting and coaching company that successfully guides people as they excel in non-diet nutrition therapy and holistic lifestyle well-being by advancing lifestyle as medicine solutions that bring improved lifestyle behaviors and lasting health transformation. They help clients see beyond diets because decades of research show that dieting doesn’t work for lasting weight, health, and life transformation.

Clients implement healthy nutrition principles to fuel their bodies with incorporated nutrition therapy when appropriate for managing medical conditions. At the same time, they help them develop a culture of wellness by guiding them toward understanding the WHAT, WHY, and HOW of eating, moving, working, and living so they can assess and address the impact of lifestyle behavior choices on all dimensions of their health and well-being.

They also help companies transform their employee wellness approach by cultivating a holistic workplace culture that allows their employees to excel and thrive by helping their people recognize and affirm what is working well while learning how to be honest and fair concerning what needs to change and improve for the benefit of stress reduction, mental clarity, emotional resilience, weight management, health, and happiness.

Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage:

The best way to answer is to let the words of their clients speak for what makes them different:

"I have gained enormous awareness over what triggers me and developed tools to overcome."

"The coaching tools were eye-opening and helped me see my values, personality, and well-being more clearly and how they impacted my food and activity behaviors."

"This program is something special. It is a very intentional program that helped me reflect on my choices and how they impacted me mentally and physically."

“I've tried so many diet programs, but none of them tackled the whys behind my overeating issues. Some were so restrictive that they really messed with my metabolism. This program really helps me with what my true goal is... to be healthy.”

Challenges Faced During the Journey:

Helping people see weight and health management from a different lens by understanding that lifestyle behavior change involves all of their dimensions of well-being and not just physical and mental well-being.

Advice for Women Entrepreneurs:

Be sure you are secure in who you are as a provider and how your approach is different at solving a problem and then own it. Culture will try to tell you that you need to conform, but if you know you have a different way to solve a problem, go for it and show the world.
