Before Juli became interested in the holistic community, her career was primarily focused on information technology. In 1988 a co-worker exposed her to the holistic realm of practitioners, modalities, intuition, etc..

Not being a practitioner herself, she loved experiencing the way that holistic practitioners approached teaching about their world, and their beliefs about the different ways we heal our bodies and keep them well.

After 30+ years Juli retired from the corporate world. She was determined to spend her time immersing herself in things she loved. She spent her time writing, and studying the holistic realm. During that time, she discovered a gap – it was her experience that it was difficult to find Practitioners, and it could be difficult to understand their world.

Being an entrepreneur, an author, and a conceptual artist, she set out to apply her analytical mind to new objectives – weaving these skills together to close the gap. Juli drew upon her work history and skills to pull together a platform to transform the mystical and complex world of holistic practitioners. The goal was to provide a central hub of information and communication -- so that a layman could learn about and benefit from everything the holistic realm has to offer.

The result was VenoSoul. Launching first in Iowa, today VenoSoul champions all practitioners who strive for a greater good, giving people a variety of holistic care options, in addition to Western Medicine. Juli’s vision was to create an easily accessible platform, which would allow practitioners to share about the services they provide so that lay people could easily find them. VenoSoul also serves as a place for people to learn more about holistic and other non-Western practices.

Working together with holistic practitioners she intends to expand VenoSoul from Iowa and create awareness throughout the globe. She looks forward to continuing to learn herself and educating people about services and modalities they may never have even heard about.

Additionally, VenoSoul serves as a catalyst to encourage preventative healthcare as the preferred way of taking care of our bodies.

Words from Juli: “I’m an Iowa girl, who loves exploring holistic alternatives for my overall wellbeing. When I first began my exploration, I thought that there was only bodywork practitioners. Now I know that practitioners address one or all of the 4 aspects of wellness, Mental, Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual. I wanted to create a platform where practitioners could share their gifts.

By creating VenoSoul - I hope to use my computer and data skills, to broaden the reach of holistic practitioners, so that others can learn about and experience, what I have enjoyed learning about and experiencing."
