We Started Here Because We Needed It Too.
Waypoint Wellness HQ was born from personal experience. We know what it feels like to search for something that actually works. That is exactly why we built this.
The Story Behind Waypoint
Rhonda and Bev did not set out to build a company. They set out to help people. Both had spent years working alongside survivors of domestic abuse through the Choose Courage Foundation, walking with people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. That work shaped everything about how they see people, what they believe healing looks like, and what it means to truly show up for someone.
Along the way they were each on their own wellness journey, exploring breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, and somatic practices. The more they learned the more they saw a gap. People were struggling. Teams were burning out. Leaders were running on empty. And the tools that were actually working, the ones rooted in nervous system regulation and lived experience, were not reaching the people who needed them most.
So they decided to change that. Together.
Rhonda dove deep into training and certification, traveling to Poland for her Wim Hof Method certification, completing SOMA Breathwork to Level 3, studying the Oxygen Advantage method of functional breathing, becoming an MBSR meditation practitioner, completing her SVMT certification in sound and vibrational therapy, and walking through fire at a Toltec center in Mexico. Bev brought her operational brilliance, her deep commitment to community, and the steady behind the scenes presence that makes everything Waypoint does possible.
Waypoint Wellness HQ is what happens when two friends decide that people deserve better tools and choose to do something about it.
Co-Founder and Lead Facilitator
Rhonda has spent her entire career in service of other people. As a high school French teacher, as a wedding photographer capturing the most important moments in people's lives, and for ten years as the Executive Director of the Choose Courage Foundation walking alongside survivors of domestic abuse. Every chapter taught her something profound about human resilience and what people are capable of when they feel truly supported.
A personal breathwork experience opened a door she did not know existed. What she found on the other side was a deep understanding of her own nervous system and a way of moving through the world with more clarity, steadiness, and purpose.
Rhonda has since trained extensively and experientially. She did not just study these practices from a classroom. She lived them.

Meet Rhonda Brunson
Co-Founder and Operations Director
Bev has spent years walking her own wellness journey, exploring mindfulness, meditation, and the profound impact these practices have on everyday life. Like Rhonda, her path deepened through her work with the Choose Courage Foundation where she saw firsthand what people are capable of when they have the right support around them.
As a certified Wayfinder Life Coach, Bev brings a deep toolkit of human centered practices to everything she does at Waypoint. The training was intensive and transformational, sharpening her understanding of what people need to feel supported, unstuck, and ready to move forward. That knowledge quietly shapes every interaction she has with clients and partners.
Behind the scenes Bev is the engine that keeps Waypoint running. She manages the systems, the logistics, the client relationships, and every detail that makes a Waypoint partnership feel seamless from the very first conversation. Her steady presence and extraordinary care create the kind of environment where people feel safe enough to do the real work.
Bev is the reason Waypoint works as well as it does. And anyone who has worked with her knows exactly what we mean.
Meet Bev Childress
Everything we do at Waypoint is built on one foundational belief. When people learn to regulate their nervous system they become capable of things they did not think were possible. More clarity. More resilience. More presence. More of who they actually are.
We call it Regulation, Resilience, Expansion. It is not just a tagline. It is the progression we walk every client through whether they are an employee in a corporate session, a leader on an executive offsite, or an individual on their own personal journey.
THREE PILLARS
Regulation We start by helping people create internal safety and stability. When the nervous system feels safe everything else becomes possible.
Resilience From that foundation we build capacity. The ability to handle stress, difficulty, and pressure without burning out or shutting down.
Expansion This is where people surprise themselves. When regulation and resilience are in place people begin to show up in ways they never expected. In their work, their relationships, and their lives.
This is the work. And we are honored to do it alongside you.
