I believe that women are experts in how they feel and what their body is telling them.
— Dr. Kristin Markell

Women only need a trusted guide to help decipher symptoms and remind them that they hold the wisdom to unlock their own complete inner wellness. When women commit to their own wellbeing, the improvement in their health inevitably leads to a ripple effect encompassing themselves, their family, their purpose, and their community.

I am not your average white-coat doctor. For 20 years, I worked inside the conventional system as an OBGYN, only to realize that the model was broken in many ways—for patients and for providers. So I stepped out and built something different. As the founder of two companies, a wellbeing strategist, coach and mentor, I create innovative programs and communities that support women in midlife and beyond—through burnout recovery, hormonal transitions, intimacy, and the messy, beautiful process of living fully.

My work blends science and soul: I’m certified in integrative and functional medicine, sexual health and perimenopause care, trained in yoga, reiki, somatic stress relief, and deeply committed to evidence-based medicine. I believe in longevity, in the wisdom of women’s bodies, and in restoration as rebellion. Whether I’m coaching corporate leaders, speaking on stage, or writing for my community, my goal is always the same: to help women reclaim their wholeness, ignite their purpose, and lead lives rooted in joy, vitality, and freedom.

I show up as a doctor, CEO, mom, mentor, and dancer—playfully rebellious, compassionate, curious, and relentlessly visionary. My deepest passion is helping women remember that they are not broken, that their intuition is trustworthy, and that they deserve to live with energy, intimacy, and WILD wellbeing.
