Kia Nesmith is a Vibrant Health & Success Coach and the founder of Simply Wellness. With a background in Functional Nutrition and Psychology, she brings over 20 years of combined experience in functional health, psychology research, and counseling to support women in creating meaningful success, while actually enjoying their lives along the way.

Kia’s passion for this work is deeply personal.

After watching women she loved struggle quietly with their health, putting on a brave face while feeling exhausted, dismissed, or unheard, she saw firsthand how often women are told, “Everything looks normal,” when they know that something isn’t right. She witnessed the frustration of not being believed, not being offered real solutions, and being left to navigate confusing symptoms alone.

That experience sparked a deep commitment: to help women feel seen, understood, and empowered in their own bodies.

But as Kia began working with women, she noticed something else. Even when women knew what to do, when they had the meal plan, the supplement list, or the workout schedule, they often struggled to follow through in a way that felt sustainable. It wasn’t a lack of intelligence or willpower. It was that the advice didn’t always fit their real lives. Between careers, families, caregiving, and countless invisible responsibilities, women needed more than information. They needed strategies that honored their energy, their season of life, and their individuality.

That realization shaped the foundation of Simply Wellness.

In a world where Dr. Google offers a thousand conflicting opinions and every week introduces a new “miracle” diet or pill, it’s hard to know who to trust, and even harder to know what will truly work for you. Kia stays grounded in evidence-informed practice, continually studying emerging research rather than chasing trends. She helps women understand how their unique bodies work so they can make confident, informed decisions.

Because vibrant health is not one-size-fits-all.

Through a blend of practical nutrition strategies, functional wellness principles, and deep mindset work, Kia supports women in moving beyond yo-yo dieting, self-sabotage, and all-or-nothing thinking. Together, they build sustainable habits that align with real life, habits that support energy, clarity, confidence, and long-term well-being.

Her approach is compassionate yet honest. Grounded in kindness, trust, and respect, Kia creates a space where women can explore what’s possible without shame or pressure. She believes health should feel joyful and empowering, not rigid or restrictive. And she is passionate about helping women create vibrant health that supports the lives they truly want to live.

When she’s not coaching, Kia can be found adventuring in the great outdoors with her husband, their two daughters, and their big puppy. A self-declared foodie, she loves getting creative in the kitchen and admits that recipes rarely come out the same way twice. Her favorite non-negotiable self-care ritual? Ending the day with a warm cup of tea and a good book.

Because wellness, at its heart, is about living fully, not perfectly.
