About Me - Tangible Well-being w. Cristina Schultz

My Story

Hi, My name is Cristina Schultz, the creator of Tangible Well-being. Here you will find my story, uncovering what started it all. I am thrilled that you found your way here, I truly hope you stick around.

Tangible Well-being was created with a mission to inspire, educate, and motivate others to live a healthier, happier life. As cheesy as that may sound.. that is why I am here.

When I started this back in 2019, I made a promise to be nothing short of authentic, and authenticity comes with vulnerability.

There is a tremendous amount of vulnerability when it comes to sharing my story so publicly. But without my story, you might not understand why I am here, and how I can help you.

To put it simply; I’ve lived a lot of life in my years, and it is what I have learned along the way that empowers me to influence others well-being.

Before the age of 18 I had already lived a lot of life. I had been a victim of domestic violence, spent years trying to overcome eating disorders, I was diagnosed and medicated for clinical depression and struggled with crippling anxiety attacks..

Personally, I had it hard, but then again who doesn’t? This world can be an unkind place.

With the support system of my immediate family and my now husband, I was better off than most and for that I am eternally grateful!

But My Story Doesn't End There.. I'm Only Getting Started..

My pursuit of happiness does not end with the perfect dose, or the best therapist. My journey truly only began when I hit rock bottom. My health, my career, my independence, my life… it was stripped from me. Not all at once but in a slow manor that took months to take notice.

When I begun to lose weight.. don’t get me wrong, once upon a time I would have celebrated that fact. But when 10lbs turned to 20lbs, then turned to 40lbs in less than 6 months.. with no explanation, I knew something was wrong.

I started to become more and more physically ill. My life was confined to a washroom.. Months of specialists, tests, scans, and exams, all with no answers.

Once I hit 65lbs of weight lost, we were testing for everything under the sun. I thought that was it. My story was going to end there..

Dramatic I know. But after almost a year with no answers, a liquid diet, and watching me wither away to nothing; with no resolution in sight.. I grew fearful.

Finally, I was diagnosed with Clostridium difficile also known as C. Diff. A life-threatening bacterial infection in your gut.

Once the C. Diff was finally treated the damage to my intestinal track was severe. I was told on multiple occasions that I would likely never fully recover. I had what they called ‘leaky gut.’ My intestinal track was leaking into my blood stream; poisoning me.

My journey to recovery has not been easy, in fact I’m still on it to this day.

But what I learned along the way has empowered me to turn my life around... more dramatically than I thought possible.

I went from feeling alone, sick, depressed, anxious, and unemployed.

To the healthiest and happiest I have ever been!!

Working at my dream job, the founder of this business, the owner of my dream home and car. Plus I am married to my best friend and surrounded by amazing friends and family… living the life of my dreams.

I am forever grateful for the life I have lived. Each and every hardship I’ve faced, I’ve taken away lessons of resilience, strength, courage, compassion, forgiveness and so much more. It is through these moments of life that I have become the woman I am today.

Inspired, motivated and driven to support others on their journey to well-being.

Not A Medical Professional

I am not a medical professional. I can not, nor will I offer any medical advice. I will always recommend you see the appropriate professional. I can however provide you with resources and accountability to take the actionable steps towards a healthier you!

Not A Therapist

People often ask what is the difference between a therapist and a life coach? To put it simply, life coaches are not mental health professionals. But can provide you with accountability, insightful questions, resources and practices to help you help yourself.

From this life I have lived;
Tangible Well-being was created.

Tangible Well-being is a community built around obtainable resources and realistic lifestyle practices.

You will find me here and all across social media platforms. Posting and engaging with a community of men and women looking to take control of their lives.

Those looking for inspiration, motivation and accountability.

Those seeking the answers on how to ‘live your best life…’ even when you’re dealt a sh*tty hand.

Coaching Services

How many times have you said ‘I need someone to keep me accountable?’ Or ‘I wish I had someone to talk this out with?’

I offer 1 on 1 coaching services to those who need a professional guide, cheerleader, confidante, and accountability partner.

I have created a customizable coaching platform to support those looking for an elevated sense of well-being. Physically, mentally, spiritually, financially.. you name it.

I am not here to do the work for you, but I am here to give you the tools, tips and gentle push in the right direction.

If you need some direction, guidance and/or support in your personal growth, book a FREE discovery call with me to explore how I can be of assistance to you along the way.

In this discovery call we can start to get to know each other, I even offer a mini intro session on the topic of your choosing.
