Meet Joanna

Joanna SheetsMy husband Ryan and I recently moved back into Milwaukee with our little pooch Kaiyuh. We enjoy exploring anything and everything outdoors. One of our favorite summer activities is to get packed up in the car for a long weekend of camping.  I’d have to say yoga is my favorite activity of choice. You can do it just about anywhere and the variety of poses are endless, which means you just can’t get bored! Did I mention that if you add a dog to it you get DOGA? Yes, you heard me right. “Kai” and I enjoy a good asana on the mat together. I have been a Foodie since childhood. Nothing makes me happier than cooking in the kitchen and discovering healthy and delicious recipes.  We are currently renters, but we love taking on the challenge of making our condo as eco-friendly as possible. This even includes a fun, organic potted patio garden in the summertime!

Professionally, I graduated from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point with a Bachelor of Science degree in Community Health Promotion/Wellness. I then decided to pursue my Masters Degree in Nursing. I am currently working as a registered nurse in the Milwaukee area and will be finishing my Masters program in 2012 to be licensed as a Certified Nurse Midwife. I love health, but most of all I love women’s health.

Self-efficacy to better yourself and your health can go a long way, but sometimes people need a little encouragement or guidance. I am hoping by you visiting our site we can plant the seed of encouragement or awareness for you to make a positive step in a healthier direction. All too often society focuses on illness and disease. We are here to advocate and cheer each other along on our own personal journeys to wellness.
