Whole Healing Institute’s team

Mellanie Smith

President and Co-Founder

Mellanie, at the young age of 8 years old, heard the whispers of her soul. Although living the path of healer in many ways through all of those years, it was ultimately the intense journey of cancer that helped her step into her purpose. After her second diagnosis, she cured herself of cancer and fully stepped into her soul’s truth. Upon using Integrative methods to heal as well as developing her profound intuitive gifts, she fully understood the depths of her purpose. Her journey to bring healing to the masses infiltrated her life; as a leader in her career, within her healing practice and with her charity work with cancer patients. 

Hannah May

Vice President and Co-Founder

At 14 years old, Hannah was clear on her purpose in this world. She knew deep within her being that she was to create a comprehensive natural healthcare practice that truly empowered others to heal their mind, body and soul. She pursued this with success, passion, and perseverance from that day forward. At the top of all her classes and with accolades to impress, she dove deep into how to be the best in her field. Her entrepreneurial path and healthcare practice was an incredible teacher. However, it was the perspective of being a patient with mystery and chronic health concerns, that fueled her with more wisdom than she could have ever dreamt possible. 

In 2014, Mellanie and Hannah crossed paths. From early on, their connection was undeniable and their soulful missions in alignment. 

Little did we know then that someday we would take the roots of our healing practices, our personal health experiences, and our friendship and transform them into a nonprofit destined to help pioneer the future of medicine.

Through our deep intuition, heart felt mission, and desire to make Integrative and Natural Medicine mainstream, we came together to support our world to redefine health and provide a platform for collaboration to transform the healing process from the inside out. 

The journey to where we are now has been full of blessings. Some blessings were filled with divine ease, whereas most were challenging re-directions, hard-earned soul lessons, and transformative uprootings. All were part of how we arrived where we are with our careers and lives today. All have helped us to become who we were always meant to be as people, healers and leaders.

Our journey to ourselves, and back to health, has given us the tools to help others to do the same. 

To our delight, we stand within the moment we have lived our entire life in pursuit of. Welcome to the Whole Healing Institute, the nonprofit we have co-founded, where we revel in the satisfaction of helping volumes of both patients and practitioners to regain their health and wholeness in a streamlined way.

Decades in the making, at the perfect time in our professional and personal journeys, and the world’s need, we were inspired to level up. We are destined to be the connector for patients, practitioners, and healthcare by providing a solution that truly encompasses the root strategies of how to get well and stay well. 

Consciousness is rising on the planet. We are being asked to become higher-minded and higher-hearted, so we can be well individually and as a whole. It is our absolute honor to be part of a mission that is creating the next most transformative healthcare platform of our time.
