After attending Capistrano Valley Christian School, Amy’s faith took root early when she accepted the Lord into her heart in sixth grade—a foundation that would sustain her through life’s challenges. She became a professor at MiraCosta College, dedicating herself to the field of education. Thirteen years ago, on the eve of her fortieth birthday, Amy’s world changed forever when she suddenly lost her beloved husband, Joe. This profound loss marked a pivotal chapter in her story. Still, Amy’s faith and resilience have carried her through many of life’s highs and lows, shaping the compassionate educator and inspiring woman she is today. Nicole Thomas grew up in a suburb of Oregon, where she also attended the University of Oregon to study psychology, initially dreaming of becoming a mediator or counselor. However, after college, Nicole realized that these paths wouldn't provide the financial security she sought, so she pivoted into healthcare marketing. Over nearly twenty years, Nicole built a successful career—starting in sales, climbing the corporate ladder in marketing, and moving from Oregon to Indianapolis for work before eventually being recruited to Southern California. There, she continued her journey with several health care startups. Nicole’s path was shaped by both professional triumphs and personal loss, including the passing of her late husband. Still, she reflects on her journey with gratitude for the experiences and the full-circle moments life has brought her.   Meet the Host:  Kim Moeller Kim Moeller is a dynamic Charitable Advisor in Philanthropy CAP® based in sunny San Diego.

For the first two decades of her career, she focused solely on exercise and nutrition, unaware of the role faith could play in holistic health. It wasn't until she discovered her faith in Jesus that she began to understand the importance of addressing mental and spiritual well-being alongside physical fitness. This revelation transformed her approach, highlighting the necessity of reducing stress and cultivating peace to achieve optimal health. Michelle now integrates these insights into her fitness practices, fostering a more comprehensive path to well-being.   Meet the Host: Kim Moeller Kim Moeller is a dynamic Charitable Advisor in Philanthropy CAP® based in sunny San Diego.
