Glen Alex’s life’s work is about health, with careers in social work, writing, charity, therapeutic massage, and tennis. Her transformative mission is to help others be joyful, connected, confident, and complete, the life experience she calls Wellth, which is health + other riches.

Professionally, Glen’s experience is well-rounded in health and wellness. She is Author of the award-winning book Living In Total Health and health blogs, Host of the award-winning podcast, The Glen Alex Show, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Licensed Massage Therapist, USPTA Certified Tennis Coach, Burnalong Instructor, Founder and Executive Director of former G. Alex Foundation.
