Joy Practitioner™️Wellness
You can't see spirit on an x-ray.
I coach based on what your body is telling you, not just what you can put into words about it.
Carolyn Pierre-Outlar, PA-C, MS-PAS
Holistic Wellness Coach
I think we've had the order backwards.
Body
Addressed first. Scanned, drawn, measured.
Mind
Addressed sometimes, if you can find someone.
Spirit
Almost never addressed. Nothing to point at.
When the workup comes back clean — normal labs, normal imaging, nothing to point at — we hear "there's nothing wrong."
A clear workup
is good news.
It's also the end of what that visit can do for you. I've been on the clinician side of that room. A clear workup rules things out. It doesn't explain what you're carrying.
Most people can't name what's bothering them. The body usually can.
I've spent years reading bodies in clinic, so I bring that experience into every coaching session. I listen for what's being said between the words, with genuine care and empathy. That's how I notice where you're holding, and what shifts when we get close to something. From there, we build a practice that fits how you actually live, drawing on yoga-informed movement and philosophy, Reiki, and embodied awareness exercises*, along with online courses, workshops, and community events, all built around one idea: joy is medicine. Welcome to the family!
What often brings people in
Fatigue that rest doesn't fix
Muscle tension, neck or back pain
Digestive trouble with no clear cause
Trouble falling or staying asleep
*Note: If you'd be better supported by another practitioner, like a yoga teacher, acupuncturist, herbalist, massage therapist, or ritual practitioner, I'm happy to share names of people I trust; referrals are free, and you'd book and pay for any outside services directly.
Get the workup. Then come find out what you're holding.
The body holds on to a lot. More than you think. Book your free initial consultation. If we're aligned, we'll follow up with a call to talk through what coaching would look like.
Coaching is not medical care. It doesn't diagnose or treat conditions, and it isn't a substitute for your own clinician.
