Wife to Will, mother to Jabari and Etana, and child of God; Nettye Johnson is a writer, professional speaker, health coach and educator.
She is an energetic ‘sturdy’ girl who enjoys cooking, eating, mind/body exercise, and mid-day naps.




Nettye is a strategic problem-solver, passionate about positive change.
Nettye serves in teaching, youth, and women’s ministry outreach at her local church and state convention. Nettye trains professionals across the nation on leadership and personal development topics. She also operates a holistic health organization that provides curated health education, coaching and programs to help adults find balance and live well.
Nettye’s writings on faith, health, and personal development have appeared in Baton Rouge Christian Life magazine and Natural Awakenings magazine. Her first book “Put Your Faith Where Your Fork Is,” shares a faith-based approach to wellness, and her podcast “Faith Applied” explores topics on faith, mind/body wellness, purpose and productivity.
Nettye wholeheartedly believes that apart from God we can do nothing and faith without works is dead. Her passion is helping people get unstuck and grow towards their God-given potential.
What people are saying…
We thank Nettye for all she did to share, collaborate, and bless the attendees and other speakers at our conference. Nettye was the perfect opening speaker, and I look forward to collaborating with her again.
