Jennifer Trejo

Abundant Life Wellness Center was founded by Jennifer Trejo. Jennifer became interested in natural health and a more holistic way of life after her father died unexpectedly from a heart attack at the age of 59. Out of a determination to learn how to improve her own health and finding a passion to help others do the same, Jennifer left her career in international human resources and completed her Doctorate in Naturopathy.

Jennifer was trained by Dr. Kharrazian in Blood Chemistry Analysis from a functional/preventative perspective as well as in complex autoimmune conditions. Jennifer also continues her training through the Institute of Functional Medicine which was founded in 1991 by Dr. Jeffrey Bland, the founder of the functional medicine discipline. In response to a need she has seen rising over the last few years, she is additionally training under Dr. Ben Lynch on MTHFR and other genetic mutations that impact mythelation and detoxification function in the body. Dr. Lynch founded www.mthfr.net and is the leading researcher in this area that impacts over 45% of the U.S. population (many of whom are unaware).

Jennifer has also earned her Bachelors degree in Business from Dallas Baptist University and her Master in Business Administration from the University of Dallas. In addition, Jennifer has trained under Dr. Datis Kharrazian who is considered one of the leading experts in non-pharmaceutical applications to chronic illnesses, autoimmune disorders, and complex neurological disorders.

Jennifer’s education and training as well as the use of the most advanced technologies and professional-grade supplements, allow her clients to receive natural, quality health services. Knowing that there is often better and safer alternatives to pharmaceutical or over-the-counter drugs and surgery, Jennifer is excited to help educate her clients how to live healthier and more holistic lifestyles. She knows this allows bodies to do what God created them to do best, heal naturally in a healthy environment.

Jennifer lives in Fort Worth with her husband Thomas, daughter Lauren and son Matthew. She enjoys her family’s active schedule, spending time with friends, reading, and being involved with her church.

Kristi May

Kristi is a compassionate individual that has always loved to help others. Her boy’s are the light of her life! So as she began her journey through motherhood, only the best would suffice. Holistic health became a big part of her life. Having studied esthetics before starting a family, she already had a passion for product/ingredient knowledge. While being a stay at home mom and helping her family start a business, she wanted to continue utilizing the skills she attained. Making her own products for herself and her family using essential oils and other natural ingredients became a hobby.

When her health began to struggle and Medical Dr.s failed to help, she began to broaden her knowledge and gain awareness on what was going into her body. Learning more about quality food/supplements, holistic healing and how to implement those things into her life, as well as her loved ones, became a rewarding pursuit.

When she’s not doing crafts or playing outside with her boy’s, she continues to explore the many platforms of natural healing/living. Getting to be apart of such a strong team that changes so many lives is beautiful blessing she is extremely grateful for.

Hannah Linville

Hannah is a Texas native, with a heart to see people healed and set free. Her journey with natural health began in 2021 when she had a negative reaction to the birth control pill. Over the next year, she saw many doctors who ran countless blood tests only to find “normal” results and many times was told it was all in her head. Frustrated, but convinced that she didnt have to live in pain, she began to do her own research. Through a God-appointed connection, she was able to speak to a family friend with experience in natural health. Hannah learned about toxins, food allergies, inflammation, etc, and was finally able to receive freedom from pain and fatigue, and was able to start her journey towards a healed and healthy body! For that reason, she is so proud and grateful to be a part of the ALWC team!

Hannah lives in Keller with her sweet husband, Christian. They love music, books, fishing, being outside, spending time with their families, and day-dreaming about having a farm one day. She loves the Lord, His Word, and wants to see her community made healthy in body and Spirit.

Mikayla Norsworthy

After working in the medical field since 2018, Mikayla witnessed firsthand how traditional healthcare systems often fall short in addressing the holistic needs of individuals. This experience inspired her to pursue a faith-driven, holistic approach to health and well-being. She is currently a student at Texas Tech University, where she studies anthropology, aiming to integrate a broader understanding of human cultures and wellness into her future endeavors.

Mikayla is originally from Caldwell, Texas, but now resides in Fort Worth with her husband, Zach, and their two dogs, Bailey and Tucker. In her free time, she enjoys reading, baking, playing board games, and exploring the outdoors.

Nicki Winberry

Nicki was born and raised in DFW, and a proud Tarleton Texan! Her journey with natural health came in recent years after struggling with chronic pain and sensory sensitivities since she was little. Seeing doctor after doctor, bloodwork coming back “normal” and being told she was fine she was left frustrated and in pain.

In college, she began to run whole-heartedly towards Jesus, and began to see a glimmer of hope. As she healed spiritually, her emotional health grew, beginning to come out of “fight or flight.” With new found strength, she started incorporating things like yoga, deep-breathing, and working with a holistic dietician. 

Finally, after years of prayer and research, she found a functional medicine practitioner who was able to diagnose her pain and walk through it with her. Understanding that the Lord was the center of all her healing, and now in the perfect place to share it at Abundant Life, she aspires to give others a glimmer of hope too.
