DARRIN R. MORRIS

 FOUNDER & LIFESTYLE COACH 

​

My career has been defined by guiding individuals and teams through complexity across industries, disciplines, and demographics.

 

Professionally, I’m drawn to challenging, often messy, situations. Whether it’s recasting vision or reenergizing people, I thrive on the process of defining, measuring, analyzing, and optimizing systems to create predictable, sustainable outcomes. Because at the core of everything—operations, leadership, transformation, or the state of one's health—is process.

 

Curiosity is my compass. I ask questions that uncover root causes and reveal hidden dynamics.

 

Critical thinking is my lens. I evaluate patterns, challenge assumptions, and separate facts from limiting beliefs and misinformation.

 

Personally, I've long considered my lifestyle a relatively healthy one.  However, a routine wellness screening in 2015 told a different story:

Elevated blood pressure and LDL cholesterol—time to revisit my process.

 

After months of research, experimentation and learning, I made lifestyle adjustments and successfully normalized my metabolic markers.  As a bonus, I soon realized my joints no longer ached, which I previously attributed to just getting older.  I was generally feeling better all around.

 

In December 2024, I retired from a corporate executive role and redirected my people development experience and process-improvement expertise towards building a platform to help others thrive on their midlife+ journey to better health.

 

GENHEALTH COLLECTIVE became the embodiment of that effort while completing my Health Coaching Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I’m especially passionate about lifestyle medicine and  the role it can play in reversing trends in chronic disease attributed to modifiable behaviors.
