Beyond Conventional Medicine: Renee Manning’s Journey to Holistic Health

Welcome to Beyond The Pills, the podcast that explores holistic approaches to health and well-being beyond conventional medicine. In this episode, we sit down with Renee Manning, a Health & Well-Being Coach, entrepreneur, and founder of Vacation Yoga®, who shares her transformative journey from disillusionment with the traditional healthcare system to discovering alternative healing modalities that changed her life—and the lives of those she serves.

After navigating personal frustrations with standard medicine, Renee turned to acupuncture, nutrition, yoga, counseling, and other alternative treatments to create a healthier, more fulfilling life for herself and her family. Her work now centers on empowering others to take charge of their health through holistic practices that blend movement, meditation, and mindfulness.

With over 15 years of experience as a Duke-trained health coach, facilitator, and educator, Renee has worked with executive peer groups, led teams, and inspired countless individuals to embrace sustainable wellness practices. She is also a registered yoga teacher (RYT-200) and Reiki Master, enabling her to craft transformative wellness experiences that seamlessly integrate body, mind, and spirit.

In this conversation, Renee introduces the innovative ways she’s transforming wellness through Vacation Yoga®, offering mini-retreats and programs that help clients create lasting health changes even beyond their time away.
