North Compass

Steve and Misty Pauley are the founders of North Compass Integrative Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching, bringing together diverse professional backgrounds and a shared passion for helping others pursue health with purpose and direction.

Misty is a Registered Nurse with 28 years of experience providing bedside care in the Intensive Care Unit. She is also a board-certified Integrative Functional Nutrition Counselor through the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy. A “food first” philosophy has long guided her approach to health and wellness, rooted in the belief that life began in a garden where God provided the plants and animals necessary to nourish and sustain life. In addition to her clinical and nutritional expertise, Misty holds a Wilderness First Aid certification, reflecting her passion for both health and the outdoors. Her favorite hiking experience is the iconic Bright Angel Trail, descending into the heart and soul of the Grand Canyon.

Steve holds a degree in business and works professionally as a commercial airline pilot. At North Compass, he contributes his expertise as Chief Financial Officer while also sharing his love for the outdoors as a local trail guide. Among his many adventures, his favorite hike remains the breathtaking Highline Trail in Glacier National Park. Steve is also actively involved in his local church community, where faith and service continue to shape his approach to life and leadership.

Together, Steve and Misty combine their experience in healthcare, business, faith, nutrition, and outdoor adventure to guide others toward sustainable wellness through the integrated and whole-person approach that defines North Compass.
