Dr. Felecia Williams, PhD, MPA, RHIA, CHWC, is the founder of Fe Will Wellness, LLC (“Fe” is pronounced iron, a nod to the chemical symbol for iron and a reflection of the resilience, strength, and determination that define both her personal journey and professional philosophy).

Dr. Williams believes that lasting wellness begins long before a person changes a habit; it begins by changing the way they think. While meaningful change is rarely easy, she knows from experience that it is possible with commitment, accountability, and purpose.

Her own wellness journey began in 2011, when a friend invited her to become an accountability partner as she pursued healthier habits. Realizing she needed to “walk the walk,” Dr. Williams confronted the reality that obesity and the onset of asthma were threatening her health. Together, they set an ambitious goal of completing a 5K, and the discipline required to reach that milestone became the catalyst for a complete lifestyle transformation. 

That experience ignited a lifelong commitment to health, wellness, and education. Since then, Dr. Williams has completed numerous races, embraced an active lifestyle, and dedicated her career to helping others build sustainable habits that improve both physical and emotional well-being.

Today, Dr. Williams combines lived experience with professional expertise. She earned a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Psychology with a concentration in Health Psychology, holds a Master of Public Administration in Health Services Management, and a Bachelor of Science in Health Information Management. She is a Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) and a Certified Health and Wellness Coach (CHWC).

As an educator, speaker, coach, and community wellness leader, Dr. Williams has spent more than a decade helping individuals, organizations, and communities build healthier lives through evidence-informed education. Her work spans health literacy, resilience, mental wellness, lifestyle behavior change, and community engagement to improve health and well-being.

Known for her authentic, direct, and compassionate approach, Dr. Williams creates spaces where people feel supported, challenged, and empowered, not judged. Whether facilitating a workshop, delivering a keynote, coaching a client, or leading a community initiative, she encourages people to move beyond perfection and toward consistent, meaningful progress.

At the heart of her work is a simple belief: wellness is not about becoming someone else, it is about becoming the healthiest, strongest version of yourself. With faith, perseverance, and an iron will, lasting transformation is within reach
