ABOUT
REAL DEAL WELLNESS
I tell everyone that comes across my community that if you are here,
YOU ARE RIGHT WHERE YOU NEED TO BE!
So welcome!
Over the past almost 20 years that I have been in the health and fitness industry I have seen and coached thousands of clients. It's been over the last 12 years though after getting married and having a baby I realized just how HARD it was to find a healthy balance.
I felt myself losing my identity and my strength. Coming from an awful eating disorder in my past I knew I had to figure this out. As I navigated this new life without as many freedoms I realized I was not alone. While I worked in a beautiful gym, the moms who were also struggling but seeing that I was able to come out of my struggles, started reaching out to me more. But unless they were close to me I could not work with them. Or it just was not realistic. This got me thinking, a lot of these mamas were also needing support, from other mamas who might be fighting to get their identity back also.
Real Deal Wellness was then born! I quit my job where I had been a 1:1 personal trainer for 11 years and built a digital wellness community.
A community where not only women but men too could
reach out and get support for leading a healthy lifestyle.

Meet Crystal
I’m a lover of all things fitness, health, and mom life, with over 20 years in the industry. I started as an aerobics instructor, earned my BS in Physical Education, and spent 11 years as a Master Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach at Life Time Fitness. When I became a mom, I quickly learned what “mom guilt” meant, and I let it take over for far too long. Then I decided it wouldn’t define me. That’s why I built Real Deal Wellness: a program anyone can do anywhere, whether that’s the
living room or the gym. And when the kids jump in to
work out with my clients, that’s my favorite!
As a mom and business owner, I know how crazy
life gets. Through the Real Deal Wellness app, I coach
men and women to find balance through habit
stacking, with no restriction, no overwhelm, and
absolutely no guilt. My goal is to help YOU make
your health a priority and fit it into your busy
schedule, one simple habit at a time.

Meet Kuri
For the past five years, I’ve been proud to be part of Real Deal Wellness, helping others discover that living a healthier lifestyle doesn’t have to be complicated or overwhelming. My passion is helping people find realistic, sustainable ways to build healthier habits that fit into their everyday lives. Through nutrition coaching, creating delicious and practical recipes, and offering encouragement and support, I love helping others find a balance between nutrition, movement, and life. I believe that healthy living is about more than just food or exercise. It’s about building confidence, creating consistency, setting meaningful goals, and learning how to take care of yourself in ways that work for you. My goal is to help others see that small, daily choices can lead to big changes over time. Whether it’s finding new recipes, making nutrition easier to understand, incorporating more movement into your day, or working toward personal goals, I want to be someone who encourages, supports, and celebrates you along the way. I believe progress is about doing what you can with what you have, meeting yourself where you are, and continuing to show up for yourself. Life gets busy, challenges happen, and perfection is never the goal. I’m so grateful to have spent the last five years growing with RDW and supporting others on their wellness journeys. My hope is to inspire people to create a healthier, happier lifestyle one habit, one meal, and one day at a time.

My goal is to encourage others to find their strength, build confidence, and create a healthier lifestyle that works for real life.
