MJ O’Leary is a certified Holistic Health and Wellness Coach. She has a BA in Psychology from Gettysburg College and is also a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN). Passionate about helping people implement and sustain healthy lifestyle changes, MJ shifted her focus to individual, community and organizational health after decades of executive leadership roles in sales, marketing and human resources. Her corporate roles necessitated world-wide travel, so MJ inherently understands the challenges associated with balancing the demands of business, family, and community, all while trying to stay healthy.  MJ utilizes her nutrition education and vast coaching experience to help clients create a lifestyle that goes far beyond a ‘diet’ – understanding practically how to take care of ourselves – at work, at home and on the go, and enacting a new way of living a healthy, happy, joyful life. Whether coaching corporate leadership teams or individuals, MJ has seen the profound ripple effect one healthy person can have on an entire family, community or organization.

MJ and Maria met decades ago, when MJ convinced Maria that the publishing industry was much more interesting than another year of graduate school. After two swift, busy decades spent raising families and working in the publishing industry, MJ and Maria are pouring their boundless energy, experience, knowledge and enthusiasm into wellnessmultiplied; emphasizing the importance and impact of wellness, and inspiring others to multiply wellness in their homes, workplace and communities. As leaders, teachers, trainers, and speakers, MJ and Maria have worked with groups and audiences, large and small. They love to laugh, debate, engage, and transform the driest research into interesting, compelling information. They are huge fans of travel - encountering new people, places and traditions. Most of all, they love to read emails and posts from grateful wellnessmultiplied clients who have committed to wellness, and are healthily and happily sharing that commitment with their family, friends, colleagues and communities.
