the journey
My journey began over 9 years ago when a friend of mine got very sick. It made me wonder if we have any control of our health and wellness…to be honest, I felt powerless. I watched her suffer and soon pass away. This catapulted a range of emotions, fear, and dread until I decided to take one small step into learning what if there is a different answer. What if we can be the master of our own bodies and allow it to heal on its own how it was originally designed. That first step was watching Food Inc. From then on, I dove deep into other documentaries and stories of people who not only got healed through foods but also thrived.
So I began with baby steps, green shakes, then some juicing, then some editing in my day to day diet. I started swooping a little here a little there animal protein with plant-based products (a lot of trial and error in that part, some of the stuff tasted terribly and it was expensive!) And it was because of this, I started creating my own quick and easy plant-based recipes and documented the process by photographing my dishes and vegan products that I liked. I wanted to remember what worked, what was easy, what products were stand outs, and what were not (I had a folder called “gross products” lol).
I did this so I could enjoy my own journey, at my own pace and style.
Fast forward to three years ago, random people at the gym, at the grocery store, and clients would ask me how to eat gluten-free and plant-powered foods. Somehow, I was attracting these people. It was a cool feeling but I found myself on the fly googling on my phone products and sharing with total strangers some of my fav things and trying to explain what are the best ways to enjoy (what to swop, how to make it, what to pair with, etc…) I thought, what if I had all of my documented process right at my finger tip to share! I felt a need to help because I remembered how it felt not to know where to begin.
