On a more personal note:
In the spring of 2000, I received the dreaded phone call from my grandma that the woman who gave me life had been diagnosed with a terminal (aka incurable) dis/ease. In the following 11 months, I became a true warrior in my efforts to find answers, treatments and protocols that wouldn’t kill her, and save her life instead. Destiny had different plans however and my mom left her physical body in March 2001. Although I made great strides with sharing information I uncovered back then, I hadn’t even scrapped the surface of what I now know. In the end, I am the one who has benefited.
Because of this unbelievably traumatic experience at the young age of 23, my life quickly began falling apart. Over those next 2 years, I lived what I consider to have been the “dark nights of my soul” – over and over. I unconsciously launched a self-destructive war with an attempt to harm myself nearly every day because of the hopeless and depressed mindset that had taken over. Clearly, I had no idea how to healthfully cope with this insurmountable stress and pain and at the time, resorted to cigarettes and alcohol. I was not prepared with the dietary and mindset tools I fortunately now have and engaged in reckless behavior because I thought my life didn’t matter anymore.
There were not many days ahead of me if I were to continue on that path. I had still lost my will to live, and that is not said lightly. As I write this, I sigh in relief of not being in that space any longer. It’s an absolute miracle that I was able to have crawled my way out of what I perceived to be the end of my own life.
Adversity creates an indescribable character within each of us and infuses our soul with deeper meaning, perspective, and purpose…
I have felt strongly compelled to share my story more recently even though for so many years I was desperate to not speak the words aloud. Now, I find strength in announcing my truth and what I’ve done with it.
One of the key phrases that was always spoken to me by my mom was, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. It seems like just 3 little words, but when you really embrace it, your world changes.
Once you believe in yourself, your self-value skyrockets. When self-love and respect are the new standards, health becomes the #1 priority. You realize that your body is a sacred temple and should be treated as such. You are willing to do whatever it takes to keep your body temple at its peak optimal level and nothing less will suffice. No accepting compromise when it comes to YOU.
From this experience, I learned many deep lessons, including:
♥ I am what I eat. There’s no getting around it.
♥ If I have my health, everything else will fall into place.
♥ Anything is possible. Anything – and with regard to everything.
♥ It is in all of our best interest to eliminate all needless suffering.
♥ I must invest in my health now. Saying ‘I’ll do it later’ is a death sentence.
♥ I have control of my own health and there’s no need to give that power to someone or something else.
♥ I learned to dream, envision, and imagine my life as I want it, and not talk myself out of it (whatever ‘it’ may be).
♥ No matter what anyone else says, everything is reversible with the right thoughts and actions. Let go of the people who don’t fully support you in this belief.
♥ No matter what your story is or how low you’ve gone, it can all turn around. You can change your destiny this very minute. You MUST have faith in this!
♥ I have the power when it comes to my emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual health. I have the choice to do whatever it takes. I don’t ‘have to’ do anything, but I choose to.
♥ There is never a crowd on the leading edge (as spoken by Abraham-Hicks) and it feels FANTASTIC to be a part of the unconventional crowd who pursues cutting edge health strategies despite being in the minority.
♥ If you believe in yourself, take control of your health and live consciously, your world will shift!
It’s Time to Rise Up, Believe In Yourself, and Unleash Your Exponential Potential!

I have no idea the path I would be on had I not been introduced to Vitamineral Green in the fall of 2001, by HealthForce Nutritionals. It was *the* product that was the catalyst for much of what positively occurred thereafter.
I am devoted to sharing all that I know about holistic, progressive, and cutting edge nutrition and natural beauty. It’s amazing how such a simple concept of consciously designing my life has totally transformed my world. What a massive blessing in disguise!
