Hidden Gems: Meet Jarrett Phelps of 2 Dope Healers

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jarrett Phelps.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I got started in the health and wellness field in New Jersey after I graduated from Penn State with a degree in Kinesiology. I really had no idea what I wanted to do but I knew I was passionate about helping people move better. I then started personal training and realized I wanted to gain some new skills to help some of my clients with their old nagging injuries. So I went to massage therapy school and obtained my massage therapy license. From there, I added manual therapy to the list of ways I help people, and that was going great. Then the pandemic hit and I was tired of New Jersey and I picked up my family and moved across the country to Austin, Texas. Now this is where I have lived since December 2020. Here I have yet again expanded my skill set and I have added a holistic health coaching certification to the mix. Now I use all the tools I have acquired to help people improve their overall life with a holistic approach to wellness. To sum it all up, now I help people generate more energy, increase productivity and manage their stress with holistic lifestyle coaching!

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It has been a struggle for sure almost the whole time even now at times. Some struggles were: moving across the country, starting my business over again, and trying to do all of this while my family is growing (we now have a beautiful baby boy, four months old). Also, the day to day of juggling kid’s business and finding the time to do all the things I coach others to do daily.

As you know, we’re big fans of 2 Dope Healers. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
My business is run by myself and my partner Aneesha it is called 2 Dope healers. We are committed to helping people be the best versions of themselves. We specialize in being a one stop shop. We offer coaching and teachings in areas such as Nutrition, Yoga, Pain management, Stress management, mindset, spirituality, flexibility, strength training and more. We deliver this through workshops, online courses, in person meetings, podcasting, group and 1 on 1 coaching. What separates us from others is that we work with the whole person. Most times you have back pain, you go to the doctor get an adjustment and may be take some meds. Our approach is more intimate we do a deeper dive because we are aware that you can adjust your back but your inability to manage the stress loads may be that actual problem and your back pain maybe how the body expresses the internal stress, we also work with the body and do the necessary bodywork as well. Our goal is to dive below the surface and get to the root causes that is where the healing is. We would like the readers to know that true wealth is health and that is exactly what the 2 Dope healers are about. We want to help as many people as we can get to the best healthiest version of themselves so they can help spread healing all over the world!

What are your plans for the future?
We are looking to expand our reach with our business and meet people who are all about improvement and spreading joy.
