Stacey Heald’s career trajectory began over two decades ago, rooted in her deep-seated interest in health and wellness.

During her tenure at Medi-Weightloss Franchising, Heald played a pivotal role in shaping the company’s trajectory, rising to the position of executive vice president, expanding operations to include insurance acceptance, and spearheading a myriad of programs aimed at driving growth and innovation within the organization.

Heald’s entrepreneurial spirit knew no bounds, leading her to co-found LeHeal Biogenix, a venture dedicated to providing innovative non-surgical treatment options for healing and anti-aging.

One of my secret superpowers is my ability to communicate effectively, regardless of the nature of the message. Whether delivering good news or addressing difficult issues within the organization, I ensure that my message is clear and well-received. My former CEO often referred to me as the “Velvet Hammer” because I have a unique ability of addressing significant errors while ensuring that individuals leave the conversation feeling encouraged and motivated.

Effective communication is essential in business, and I excel at conveying tough messages in a way that fosters understanding and improvement. I am also unafraid to go against the grain when it is in the best interest of the organization, further showcasing the importance of clear and impactful communication.
