NJWNG (New Jersey Wellness Networking Group) was founded by Dina Haffner, LMT of Kinetric Wellness. She created the group when realizing a strong need for health + wellness practitioners to work together in helping their clients further than their own scope of practice, while also focusing more on their own self care. NJWNG meets every other month for our networking groups but also hold monthly meetings where we highilight different wellness centers / gyms / holistic practitioners, etc...

"My thoughts have always been drawn to the human experience. Eventually leading me to purse an acting career. I gave up those dreams because of unbelievable pain I had for 17 years. With nothing but a desire to bring new information to help people, I opened my own business. I wouldn't be where I am today without my unsuccessful back surgery I had as a young adult. Our personal struggles can become opportunities that ultimately lead us to our callings to create great momentous achievements in one’s life and in the lives of others."

Our next speaker, Meredith Koloski is the founder of EndOM yoga and co-creator of Happyfeelsgood. She lives with a passion to use mindset, movement and nutrition to help others recognize habits and patterns that may be holding back their “happy” and guide them through the “tuning in, tapping in and turning on” process, which involves tuning into our divinity, tapping into the spirit warrior that resides within and turning on our lights to unapologetically shine brightly out into the world. Her motto is that we are all the choreographers of our own life, directing the dance between our soul, mind and body. Meredith holds a MFA with an emphasis in dance choreography and kinesiology from Arizona State University, is a certified Yoga Teacher with specialization in Thyroid/Autoimmune Yoga, is a certified lifeand mindset coach, Growth U advisor, NASM personal trainer, Sprit Junkie Level 1 master and wellBEing coach.

She is a grateful mom of a brilliant seven-year-old boy and step mom to three extraordinary humans.
"Our hardships are not there to cast darkness over our lives they are the very thing that reveals our light".
