John Kelly is a former professional MMA fighter and Miami-Dade County firefighter who has become a holistic health coach. With over twenty years of experience in fitness, performance, and recovery, John now dedicates his life to helping first responders overcome burnout, hormone dysfunction, stress-related illness, and chronic fatigue.

He holds a degree in Exercise Physiology from Florida International University, where he also walked onto the football team at age 23. After stepping away from the fire service due to health complications, including adrenal fatigue, a heart arrhythmia, and hormonal breakdown, John created the Holistic First Responders system, a comprehensive wellness initiative explicitly designed for the physical and psychological demands of firefighting.

He founded Beyond The Job, an educational platform focused on mindset, sleep, nutrition, and innovative training. He is currently leading a wellness revolution to help first responders "outlive the job" by reversing the damage caused by shift work, trauma, and toxic exposure.
