I also provide stress management, relaxation strategies, and holistic lifestyle and wellness support (e.g., herbal remedies, and iridology) for holistic living. Through Our Wellness Academy, I provide transformative support from individuals and families, empowering them to heal from within to love their best lives.
OUR FOUNDER
Gina Walton is an Army brat born in Waterloo Iowa and raised in Wheaton Maryland where she attended and graduated from Montgomery County Public Schools. Upon graduation, Gina embarked on a fifteen year career in Administration working various government contracts for agencies such as, National Institute of Health, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Department of Health and Human Services, Lockheed Martin, and Food and Drug Administration. After leaving Corporate America, she decided to continue her education at Fayetteville State University graduating with honors magna cum laude, with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration Concentration in Management.
During her matriculation, she exemplified excellence in both personal development, and student leadership. Gina continued her growth and dedication in her academic excellence and in her good efforts as she served both the student body, and the community selflessly through various activities while attending FSU. She was one of three Fayetteville Students to serve on the FSU team and volunteer for Campus Kitchen, Co-Chair for the planning committee of the Cumberland County Crop Hunger Walk which partnered with the Second Harvest Food Bank 2017-2018. Additionally, Gina was a volunteer hostess for the annual 2017 Food Fight Gala to increase awareness and collect donations for the local communities via local and corporate businesses in the area to feed families and children affected by hunger daily in Cumberland County and surrounding areas.
After graduating from Fayetteville State University, she began her journey in graduate studies at Grand Canyon University where she earned a Master of Science Degree in Psychology with a focus in Life Coaching. Additionally, she holds certifications as a Reiki Grand Master, and mindfulness instructor. She is dedicated to using her platform to educate and nurture individuals and communities specifically, at risk and underserved communities during their healing journey. She does this by Supporting clients in using holistic modalities to heal and find purpose in their lives as they transition out of survival mode after experiencing trauma and other life challenges.
After completing my six week journey with Gina, I feel empowered! I am able to use the tools she provided in all areas of my life. I learned a lot about balancing the different areas of self-care and how they are all intertwined. It was amazing to take the self assessment again at the end of six weeks and see how significantly I had grown in the areas of concentration. I am still a work in progress but I no longer feel like my life is spiraling out of control. Instead I have a found a new me that still can't control my surroundings but CAN control how I react to them. I choose what gets my energy now and it is absolutely liberating! Thank you, Gina!
Gina is exceptional at tapping in to one's emotions and helping her clients discover the areas of their life that are being neglected. She was able to identify underlying issues that I did not even realize were problem areas, during our very first session. Her intuitiveness and empathy allow her to hear what you're not saying. She personalizes your self work assignments to put you on your very own path of healing and growth. I'm looking forward to this journey with Gina and expect I will learn a lot about myself and begin to heal from all the things that I've pushed down, bottled up and ignored so I could continue being a rock for everyone else. It's my time, well past due. Thank you, Gina, for already helping me to realize that I'm worth fixing too! xoxo
