Pamela J. Leno is the owner and founder of Ideal Wellness NW in Olympia, Washington. She is a mother, author, speaker, teacher, certified master hypnotherapist, and certified life coach. In her pursuit of healthy living and helping people achieve their physical, mental, and spiritual goals, she has taken on many different roles.

After thirty years in the fitness industry, Pam realized that exercise is great for general health, wellbeing, and feeling good, but not the best option to lose weight. In 2011, she joined forces with Dr. Robert Nooney to investigate how the foods we eat actually affect not only weight but mental, physical, and hormonal balance.

Pam learned more about nutrition and hormonal imbalance during this time than she had ever learned in her years as a fitness coach.

She began to understand that there were underlying thoughts, feelings, beliefs, experiences that her clients just could not get beyond. She obtained her QSCA Coaching Certificate in 2015 and then studied under Brendon Burchard for HPC. Next was the QEHI Hypnotherapy Mastery Certification and her favorite 5-PATH and 7th Path Master Hypnotherapist Certification and Self Hypnosis Certification. She is a member of the National Guild of Hypnotherapists.

She has devoted the last ten years to learning not just the physical outcomes of poor eating habits but the emotional and spiritual outcomes of unhealthy eating habits, personal neglect, and lack of spiritual connection.

Pam loves nature. That is her church. She lives in Olympia, Washington, on Summit Lake. Nature and water rejuvenate her. She is grateful for life, health, and vitality, and wishes the same to all.
