Top 5 Wellness Coaches in Dallas That Locals Keep Recommending Left and Right
After feeling totally burned out, a friend wanted to feel better emotionally and physically, so she booked a wellness coach she found online.
Big mistake—the coach gave her rigid meal plans and hardcore workouts. Honestly, she felt like she signed up for boot camp, so she gave up after a month.
It’s a good thing that her cousin referred her to a wellness coach who totally got it. The coach focused on creating small, sustainable shifts and building healthy habits that worked with her lifestyle.
Within a few weeks, she felt more energized and grounded.
So, if you’re thinking of hiring a wellness coach but don’t know where to start, no worries! Here’s our roundup of the best wellness coaches in Dallas for top-notch support.

Chris Ownbey Golf Fitness has been helping a wide range of people—from golf lovers to wellness seekers—improve their bodies and mindsets for over 25 years.
We like that he’s not just a self-proclaimed wellness coach—he’s actually TPI- and NASM-certified. He was even featured on Good Morning Texas and Texas Golfer.
To begin, he offers a free TPI Golf Fitness Assessment that’s worth $250, so you’re pretty much winning since day one.
Once he knows how your body works, he creates a personalized plan to help you achieve your goals. Even if you’re not a golfer, he can boost your wellness in terms of having better posture, fewer aches, and more energy.
You can choose from 30- and 60-minute private sessions.
Now, while Chris does touch on some mental aspects of wellness, his main focus is definitely physical performance. Those looking for emotional wellness support might need to go elsewhere.

The Lyons’ Share was founded by Dr. Megan Lyons, who holds a Doctorate in Clinical Nutrition. For over 10 years, her mission has been to help you reach your wellness goals so that you can genuinely feel like your best self.
In terms of credentials, she’s a Board-Certified Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Clinical Nutritionist, Certified Health Coach, and Certified Nutrition Specialist.
One of her most popular wellness packages is Revolutionize, perfect for those dealing with multiple health concerns who want to lose a lot of weight. This 4-month program includes two sessions/month, text check-ins, and messages.
Another crowd favorite is her Reboot package, which includes full lab testing and a personalized game plan based on the results. You’ll also get detailed supplement and nutrition advice.
The only downside is that she’s focused more on the nutrition side of wellness, which might not be compatible with those looking for workout plans.
Happy with increased energy levels and my weight reduction
“Just successfully completed a “refocus” package with Megan and Emily. Both ladies were extremely knowledgeable and active listeners. Their feedback to my questions and concerns were very clear, and recommendations were very actionable. I am happy with increased energy levels and my weight reduction. I highly recommend their services.” — philip frink, Google Review
Helped me change my lifestyle in a healthy and sustainable way
“It’s really hard to articulate the type of impact that Megan has had in my life! She was able to address needs and goals that I have had for years. She helped me change my lifestyle in a healthy and sustainable way that makes my daily life better and better. Anyone would be blessed and lucky to have her expertise, knowledge, compassion, and overwhelming optimism!!!” — Haley Weiner, Google Review

Living Well With WiL was created by WiL Turner, who has been coaching people for over 30 years. His goal is to help men take control of their health inside and out.
As an ISSA-certified physical health, yoga, lifestyle, and wellness coach, he’s able to customize supplement recommendations and give performance and recovery advice.
What he’s known for is his (takes a deep breath) FIITT Men’s Fitness Improvement Interval Training Techniques Program. Yep, it’s quite a mouthful, but it basically helps boost one’s endurance, resilience, and energy.
For a full reset, you can join a guided restorative health workshop or book a wellness retreat for men. These may include yoga, meditation, stress management, and even team-building adventures.
Of course, expect these curated offerings to be pricey. And since his services are focused more on men’s wellness, women might be more comfortable with another wellness coach.
I feel stronger, healthier, and more confident
“I had tried multiple fitness programs, but nothing clicked until I started training with WiL. His approach to fitness isn’t just about working out, it’s about improving your overall well-being. WiL took the time to understand my goals and tailored a fitness plan specifically for me. I feel stronger, healthier, and more confident than I have in years. I highly recommend his coaching!” — Sumant Patra, Google Review
Knowledgeable, motivational, and gives excellent advice!
“Wil is knowledgeable, motivational, and gives excellent advice! He always works me until I’m sore, and I love every bit of it!!! He’s amazing!” — Preston Watson, Google Review

Get Fit With Faryn is led by—you guessed it—Faryn, who’s been making waves in Dallas as a Fitness and Wellness Coach for over 28 years. She might be familiar since she has been featured on Good Morning Texas, Dallas Moms, and Mind Body Radio.
Prenatal and postpartum wellness is her specialty—she’ll help you stay grounded when your hormones are going off the rails. We love that she’ll even design routines like pelvic floor work, mobility exercises, and stretches.
She’s also a Mindfulness and Self-Care Coach. Using the practice of mindfulness, she’ll help you manage stress, build self-love, and become more present in your daily life.
And as a Nutrition Coach, she can review your food diary, teach you to shop smarter, or provide easy meal prep ideas.
While her coaching style and focus areas are really popular with women, guys might need to find someone else for their needs.
Completely transformed my fitness journey
“Working with Faryn has completely transformed my fitness journey. From the very first workout session, I felt supported and motivated. In the season after having a baby, there are a lot of things going on and it can be challenging to carve out time for yourself to think about your own fitness. Faryn guided me through my postpartum recovery by designing targeted exercises that helped me regain my strength, making me feel strong and confident throughout the entire journey. Thank you, Faryn!” — Vicky Wu, Google Review
To know her is to love her!
“To know her is to love her! There aren’t enough words that I have to describe for this beautiful soul with a heart of gold. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Faryn for 5 blissful months. Although our time together was short, I’ve learned so much! It’s been a joy having someone who is caring, encouraging, patient, kind, supportive, a mentor, and your biggest cheerleader all in one. She’s made a very positive impact in my life and I am extremely blessed to have crossed paths with her. I came to her at a low point in my life being stuck in my wellness journey after dealing with chronic illness, but because she had faith and believed in me, I can now carry those with me and have faith and believe in myself. My confidence slowly but surely has grown because of her, and I am eternally grateful. Truly a diamond that I’m glad I found. I recommend her to any and everyone, regardless of where you are in your journey. She will meet you where you are and help you push to your fullest potential, no matter how hard it is or how long it takes. Thank you so much for everything, Faryn!” — Jasmine Johnson, Google Review

Kala Health & Wellness was created by Joyce Manalo, a Certified Health and Nutrition Coach, as well as a Yoga Instructor. Growing up with type 2 diabetes and depression inspired her to focus on nutrition and holistic health.
We appreciate her unique offering—Culturally Conscious Health Coaching. She works primarily with women looking to have a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food.
She believes in co-designing your health plan to set realistic goals. Plus, you can choose between one-on-one or group coaching—virtual setups are also available.
In addition to coaching, you can sign up for her Wellness Workshops. These sessions focus on nutrition and mindfulness—perfect for anyone who wants to dip their toes into wellness without getting overwhelmed.
As a bonus, she can bring wellness to the workplace, too, offering on-site health coaching, biometric screenings, and conference presentations.
Keep in mind, however, that their services focus mostly on women’s needs.
Incredibly personalized and empowering experience
“Working with Joyce was an incredibly personalized and empowering experience. Joyce helped me develop clear, attainable goals within the context of my daily life and current emotional health. Sessions were always so productive, and I learned so much! When I started the Nutrition Program, I was uncomfortable in my own skin and I easily made judgments about my wellbeing. With Joyce’s support, I became more in tune with this body that works so hard to keep me strong and healthy.” — Christie Prince, Google Review
Made incremental and sustainable changes
“I worked with Joyce as my health coach for 5 months. I learned and accomplished way more than I expected to! I built a lot of new awareness and established some great new habits that support the life I want to live and my relationship with food and nourishing myself. We made incremental and sustainable changes that really accumulated. Joyce is an excellent guide! She is very organized, a fantastic reflective listener, and I really felt seen and heard. She built a program specifically and individually designed for me and my goals, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. She really thinks about all of the factors that affect your capacity to eat and live well.” — Tiffany Miller, Google Review
