Gabriella Testa, founder, CEO, and Lead Transformation Coach of Welltality Coaching, has been a resident of Kent since 2013, along with her husband Jay of seventeen years. “We fell in love with the neighborhood immediately upon discovering it after moving from Cincinnati, Ohio,” she says. Gabriella was born in the Midwest, but primarily grew up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Her business, Welltality Coaching, is a coaching practice dedicated to helping high-achieving women prioritize and optimize their health, biologically age in reverse, and live vibrantly with purpose and without burnout.

 

Gabriella spent nearly two decades thriving in the pharmaceutical industry, helping patients and medical professionals manage chronic and rare diseases. “I held various roles in Executive Specialty Sales, Account Management, mentorship, and sales leadership development,” she says. “In December of 2023, I retired as an Oncology Disease Area Account Manager - Breast and Women's Cancer. I was responsible for servicing high-priority, key academic institutions within the DC, MD, and VA areas.” After retiring, she dedicated 2024 to becoming a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach, a Certified Longevity/Epigenetics Coach, and a Certified Meditation Practitioner. She also holds a Master of Science in Organization Development & Leadership and a Bachelor of Science in Marketing, graduating magna cum laude.

While she experienced various successes in the fast-paced world of the pharmaceutical industry, she was silently struggling in her personal life. “I battled a cascade of personal health challenges—Hashimoto’s disease, intestinal permeability, hormonal imbalances, and even a pituitary adenoma,” Gabriella says. “At the same time, I faced the relentless pressure of high-achiever stress and burnout, and an unshakable feeling that I was meant for something more. I craved purpose and alignment but lacked the clarity to chart a new course.”

 

Everything changed when Gabriella discovered Functional Medicine, a root-cause approach to health that deeply resonated with her. She immersed herself in the study of lifestyle medicine, mind-body healing, longevity science, epigenetics, and biohacking. The application of these principles changed her life. Gabriella was able to heal her health challenges, reverse her biological age significantly; she experienced a profound shift in her perspective on life, health, and purpose.

 

This newfound clarity inspired Gabriella’s entire being. “I knew I had to help other professional, high-achieving women experience the same freedom and empowerment,” she says. “I took a leap of faith and walked away from the corporate world.” After betting on herself as an entrepreneur, her new calling led to Welltality Coaching. Welltality Coaching is more than a business; it is a sacred space where science and soul come together. “Here, I help others unlock their own vitality, healing, and purpose,” she says. “My journey has been transformative, and now, my mission is to empower other women to reclaim their health—and their lives.”

 

Welltality Coaching is leading a movement in empowering professional, high-achieving women to reclaim their energy, optimize their health and longevity, and thrive without burnout. Recognizing that success often comes at the expense of peak wellness, Welltality Coaching helps women prioritize their health so they can excel in all areas of life. By empowering clients to become the "CEO of their health, wellness, and longevity," their personalized, science-backed, multi-modality coaching programs address the complex factors influencing behavior changes needed to build sustainable daily habits that improve lifestyle

factors including stress management, sleep and nutrition, mindset and purpose.

This focus on holistic wellness and alignment with one’s authentic self creates a ripple effect in

the lives of women that benefit families, workplaces, and society as a whole.

 

For Gabriella, the most rewarding part of the business is how it aligns with her values, passion, and purpose. “I believe that true success isn’t just about what we achieve—it’s about how we show up in the world, the impact we make, and how we elevate those around us,” she says. She feels privileged to help women reignite their inner light and achieve their full potential. As a certified agent of change, Gabriella channels her passion for health, wellness, longevity, and biohacking into empowering high-achieving women to take control of their well-being, reverse biological aging, and create vibrant, purposeful lives. Gabriella says her favorite part of her career is knowing that she’s contributing to something greater than herself, and helping to leave the world a better place by empowering women to thrive in their mind, body, and spirit.

 

Beyond her professional pursuits, Gabriella enjoys traveling and exploring different cultures, with favorite destinations including Paris, Positano, and the French Riviera. As a health, wellness, longevity, and spiritual enthusiast, she finds solace and rejuvenation in nature through activities like walking, hiking, and yoga. She also has a passion for fashion, decorating, design, and appreciates antiques, architecture, and art. Gabriella cherishes spending quality time with her husband, family, and friends.

 

Gabriella believes health is our greatest asset and that everyone can take control of their healthspan, lifespan, and well-being by creating sustainable, health-enhancing habits through

personalized support and accountability. “Every conversation, every transformation, and every breakthrough fuels my passion to continue expanding Welltality Coaching's reach and empowering more women to step into their best, most vibrant selves,” she says. Gabriella is deeply appreciative for the opportunity to share her passion and her mission: to help leave the world better than she found it. She believes that “when women are truly well, thriving, and living in mind, body, and spirit, the entire world benefits.”
