HER STORY ⟡ Cheslea Leveling

If you’re on a journey toward better health, more energy, and actually feeling heard when you talk to your healthcare provider — I see you. I’ve been there too, and I’m so glad you’re here.

Let me introduce myself: I’m a Nurse Practitioner and the Clinic Director at Functional Health Center of the Carolinas — and I’m passionate about helping women reclaim their wellness in powerful, natural ways.

From Southern Illinois to the Queen City

I’m originally from Southern Illinois, but a few years ago, I made the leap to Charlotte in search of more sunshine and a slower, more joyful pace of life. It’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! These days, I’m loving life here with my sweet dog Teddy by my side — he’s my best bud and always up for an adventure.

My Journey: Healing from the Inside Out

My path into functional medicine wasn’t something I planned — it found me during a really challenging season of my own health. After years of symptoms and no real answers, I finally discovered functional medicine... and it completely changed my life. I didn’t just “feel better” — I felt like me again.

That experience shifted everything for me professionally. I originally got into healthcare to help people, and discovering this path made that dream more rewarding than I ever imagined.

Women’s Health Is My Passion

I’m especially passionate about women’s health — because I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to feel unheard or dismissed. Whether you're navigating fatigue, hormone imbalances, gut issues, or just not feeling your best, I’m here to walk with you through it.

I believe every woman deserves to feel strong, seen, and supported — not just patched up, but truly transformed.

My Mission: Deep Healing, Real Results

I’m not here to slap on a quick fix. My goal is to help women rewrite their health stories by focusing on:

✨ Root cause healing
✨ Personalized wellness plans
✨ Real, honest conversations
✨ Creating vibrant health that lasts

What Inspires Me Daily

My incredible family and friends, my own journey, and honestly — waking up with energy and gratitude each day. One of my favorite mantras is:

“It’s a good day for a good day.”

Gratitude is medicine, too — and it’s a big part of how I approach health and life.
