    – Knoxville

  • Very personable facilitator. Jolene is very knowledgable. She made the class feel very comfortable.

    SD- New Orleans

  • When I first met her I was skeptical. In the health world, ‘health’ can mean so many things to so many people. It wasn’t until I sat down and interviewed her that I trusted her. She has a great influence on companies.
  • Jolene is a nutritionist – but she’s more than that – she’s a health and lifestyle educator.
  • I enjoyed this course. Jolene was excellent. I think these courses should be offered more often.

    BR-Atlanta

  • At the level that she delivers the information – she presents it without creating guilt – that’s what I like the most. Jolene can tell you what you need to do to balance your life without creating guilt.
  • The course was very informative, this is a good initiative taken by Owens & Minor. Thanks for the opportunity.

    MF- Atlanta

  • Very motivating, as always!

    -Atlanta

  • Before I met her I thought I knew everything I needed to know. When I met her originally I was suspicious, had pre-conceived notions, expected it to be a negative situation – none of that happened. I found her to be a great communicator, very down to earth.
  • Jolene- You were worth every penny. I just wish I had gotten to you sooner. You really opened my eyes to a whole new way of eating. It is so important as I just found out. I left feeling as though a whole new world opened up to me and a mask was removed from my eyes for the first time. I really do believe this time the weight will stay off now that I am more educated about nutrition and need to continue educating myself along with aligning my body and emotions with this program. Getting healthy emotionally with my food addiction is just as important as the physical aspect of losing weight. Thanks again for your service.
