Hi, I’m Natassja Nowak (Tasha Nowak), a nursing student, certified nursing assistant, and wellness advocate passionate about integrative care and intentional living. I am a proud alumna of Vanderbilt University, where I studied Medicine, Health & Society with a concentration in health policy and economics, alongside a minor in business.

 

I founded To Live Well to weave wellness into both healthcare and everyday life through free, accessible resources. What began in Nashville as a passion project rooted in holistic well-being and patient-centered care has since found its home in Atlanta, continuing to grow and evolve. Grounded in real-world healthcare experience and a belief in intentional living, To Live Well supports individuals in sustaining personal well-being while navigating high-performance environments, whether in clinical settings, academic programs, or any role that demands both skill and compassion.
 

I grew up on the island of Borneo, Malaysia, where I witnessed the kind of care that stays with you: deeply human, relational, and spiritually rooted. It shaped my belief that wellness is not a luxury or an afterthought, but central to how we show up for others.
 

As a former competitive figure skater for 15 years, gymnast, and collegiate cheerleader, I developed a strong foundation in discipline and resilience. I have also learned that ambition without regulation leads to burnout. To Live Well is my response to that lesson and a space that honors both structure and softness, and balance, with a mission to empower those who care for others to care for themselves just as deeply, making wellness a daily and sustainable practice.
