Quintessence ("Tess") Challis began her holistic health journey in her late teens. After a lifetime of numerous health ailments (including acne, obesity, strep throat, constant illnesses, anxiety, and depression), she found that a vegan diet along with an "inner wellness regime" of meditation and visualization literally made a world of difference.

In 1994, she began sharing this knowledge through cooking classes, catering, meditation classes, and workshops. She has also been a personal chef to many clients across the United States.

In 2008, Tess published the 1st edition of "Radiant Health, Inner Wealth" which was the culmination of knowledge from her many personal experiences and work as a chef and instructor. In 2009, her 2nd edition was published, which has been noted as the most unique, comprehensive book on the subject of holistic health to date.

Tess resides in southwest Colorado.
