Who are we?
Meet the team
DEBORAH PEDDLE-HANN,
Owner/Fitness & Wellnes Specialist/Your Biggest Cheerleader
Deborah is not only the founder and owner of Journey to Wellness, but she is the heart, soul and face of the business. Although she fell in love with fitness and gyms when she was only 14 years old, she has been working in the fitness industry since 2007 and has made it her life mission to help as many people as possible live their healthiest and best life. In fact, she was even helping co-workers with their nutrition & fitness struggles when she worked in the corporate world so this has ALWAYS been her passion.
After her first child was born 20 years ago, Deborah went into one of the biggest slumps of her life and had to dig her way out how she knew best - good nutrition, exercise, self-care and making her health the priority.
Once she really started to understand how each phase of our lives brings on new challenges and triumphs, Deb knew she had to turn her passion into something more. And she never looked back!
With now over 17 years professional fitness wellness experience, a Mom of three and a busy business owner, she knows first hand how difficult it can be to "do it all" but has learned that with a few planning tools and mindset switches, it is possible to make healthy eating and exercising a normal part of your life.

JENN NEiLSON
Virtual Assistant / Life Saver / Deborah's Hero
Jenn is a virtual assistant living on the South Shore of Nova Scotia. Her focus is to help you with all of the little tasks in your business that pile up, like social media graphic creation and scheduling, podcast/video editing, proofreading, copy writing and editing, Pinterest graphic creation, and more.
She wants to take those tasks off your plate so that you can get organized, attract clients and customers, and live a more balanced life. Jenn’s background is in health and wellness, as she has spent the last 11 years as a massage therapist, and most of her clients are in the health and wellness industry such as personal trainers, physiotherapists, massage therapists, doulas, and pediatric sleep consultants.

Deb's note - Jenn is being modest. She is actually a life saver and helps me keep my "sh**" together when I get scattered. She helps me work ON my business so I can spend more time where it really matters to me, with my clients and members.
You can also listen to Jenn on her Travel Mug podcast. Contact her at jenn@willsavefortravel.com
