ABOUT ME
Shelli Johnson
Hello! I’m thrilled to share a bit about my journey with you.
As an advocate for healthy living, I’m passionate about guiding others on their journeys to healing and self-discovery. After suffering a traumatic brain injury from a head-on collision with a drunk driver, I experienced firsthand the transformative power of holistic healing. This life-altering event ignited my desire to help others reclaim their well-being and find balance in their lives.
I am an expert in the fields of obesity and weight management, and I’m proud to say that my work has gained some recognition along the way. You might have seen me in PEOPLE’s Half-Their-Size issue, on PEOPLE TV, or even on FOX TV and NPR. My writing has also appeared in places like The Plain Dealer and Thrive Global. I’m also excited to share that my books, Start Where You Are Weight Loss® and the Start Where You Are Weight Loss® Playbook, became #1 Amazon Bestsellers!
With a background that includes a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and a master’s in Fiction Writing, I’ve honed my skills in storytelling. My experience as a sports journalist, where I earned prestigious awards, taught me the importance of connection and communication—skills I now bring into my holistic practice.
I’ve been privileged to participate in artist residencies and have received recognition for my debut novel, Small as a Mustard Seed, which was awarded multiple honors, including a Grand Prize from the Writer's Digest International Book Awards. The novel was also featured in Writer's Digest magazine, NPR, the Today Show, among other media. Most recently, I completed a gripping novel that delves into the complexities of WWII Germany, offering a haunting and intimate perspective through the eyes of those who lived it.
As a holistic healing practitioner with 25 years experience, I’ve guided thousands of clients on their wellness journeys. I’m dedicated to helping others thrive by uncovering their own stories and voices. Together, we can explore the path to healing, growth, and empowerment.

TESTIMONIALS
It's like Shelli is in my head writing to ME . . . saying exactly what I've believed about myself and sharing exactly what I need to do to get out of abusing myself with food. Just when I think it could not get better . . . it does. Every chapter is rich. Rich in awareness, compassion, and no-nonsense advice.
