A lifelong athlete and lifelong learner, after graduating from Westmont College in Santa Barbara on a basketball scholarship with a degree in Kinesiology, Dabney pursued a nursing degree at TCU. She started her work as a nurse in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Cook Children’s Hospital in Fort Worth, TX. After personally being diagnosed with Type I Diabetes in 2013, Dabney pursued her passion for educating others to pursue meaningful and sustainable lifestyle changes. She founded Dabney Poorter (formerly Engage Your Wellness) in 2015. After co-founding Restore + Revive in January 2020 with Taylor Dukes of Taylor Dukes Wellness, Dabney knew her heart for education would take her even further. In the Spring of 2023, she completed her lifelong dream of becoming a Nurse Practitioner and opened R+R Functional Medicine shortly thereafter.
Dabney is mom to two precious girls and her favorite workout buddy is her husband, Kelly. Faith, family and friends (furry ones too!) fill her cup and occupy her time outside of R+R.
