“The Heart Behind Our Wellness & Aesthetics Family”

Meet Jeffrey Money NP-C  (Owner)

 

Jeffrey Money, NP-C, is a board-certified nurse practitioner specializing in family and emergency medicine, with over 25 years of experience working at Level I and Level II trauma centers. He serves patients at Strive IV and Wellness in New Braunfels, Texas. Jeff earned his undergraduate degree from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, and completed his Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) at Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais, Illinois. He is an active member of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners and the American Academy of Emergency Nurse Practitioners.

Jeff has extensive medical training in both military and civilian settings, starting as a medic and advancing to his current role as an advanced practice provider. He continues to serve in the Texas National Guard on their CERFP team. Throughout his career, Jeff observed that while Western medicine excels at treating acute conditions, it often falls short in addressing root causes and providing holistic solutions. 

Jeff now specializes in innovative IV therapies and longevity medicine, helping patients live happier, healthier, and more energetic lives. He has seen the benefits of IV therapy firsthand through his wife and co-owner, who has suffered from gastrointestinal issues for several years. With his extensive knowledge, experience, and expertise, Jeff provides personalized consultations to determine the best IV therapy treatments for each patient, aiming to achieve optimal physical and mental well-being. He expanded his practice to include functional medicine and hormone replacement therapy, further enhancing his holistic approach to patient care. Additionally, Jeff is committed to spending more one-on-one time with patients to ensure they receive the individualized attention and care they deserve.

Meet Joell Money, RN (Owner)

Joell Money, RN, is an experienced registered nurse with 18 years of expertise, providing compassionate care to Strive IV and Wellness patients in New Braunfels, Texas. Joell began her career in the high-stress environment of the emergency room, where she honed her IV skills. She later worked in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and transitioned to labor and delivery after starting a family, where she found significant fulfillment. Throughout her career, Joell has followed various paths that reflect her life's journey, always striving to provide the best possible care to her patients.

After facing her own health issues and exploring conventional medical treatments for several years, Joell discovered the benefits of functional medicine and IV hydration therapy. She learned she was severely deficient in vitamins due to poor gut absorption, which led to an autoimmune response and a cascade of other side effects. Initially, she tried oral vitamins with conventional treatment, but they proved ineffective. This challenging experience led her to find that IV infusion therapy was the solution.

Driven by her personal health struggles, Joell has dedicated herself to researching and applying the necessary nutrients and vitamins the body needs to function correctly. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge and working with others to help them feel better and live their best lives. Joell emphasizes that no one should wait as long as she did to address their health issues and reach their full potential.

Meet our Skin Care Team

Macy Souser

Professional Laser Technician 

Hi there! I’m Macy — skincare enthusiast, laser lover, and your go-to girl for all things glow. Whether I’m fading sunspots, saying goodbye to stubborn hair, erasing old ink, or cheering you on through your skincare journey, my mission is simple: to help you feel confident and cared for every step of the way. I’m all about real results, honest advice, and creating a space where you can truly relax and feel your best. When I’m not in the treatment room, you’ll find me chasing sunshine (with SPF and a hat, of course), thrifting for hidden gems, or taking care of my ever-growing plant collection. Let’s create some skin magic — you deserve to love the skin you’re in!

Brianna Dunn

Esthetician 

With over five years of experience as a licensed esthetician, I specialize in acne recovery, barrier repair, lymphatic drainage, and helping clients age gracefully—inside and out. My treatment room is more than just a space; it’s an immersive experience designed to transport you to another dimension of calm, healing, and transformation. Every detail is curated to create a truly elevated facial that stands apart from the rest.

 

Whether you’re rebuilding your skin’s foundation or chasing that effortless glow, I’m here to guide you with results-driven care and intuitive touch. Outside the treatment room, I’m a wife who loves to travel, a family girl at heart, and an unapologetic foodie—especially when it comes to good sushi (my love language.)

 

 Investing in your skin—the body’s largest organ—is one of the most powerful forms of self-care, and the results will speak for themselves.
