Bio

Bio #1

Nature was my first love. I grew up in the countryside and spent most of my childhood at the beach or on the lake. Being from the South my grandmother was a huge influence on me through her cooking and gardening (albeit with a lot of chemicals). After studying abroad in Europe, I fostered a new relationship to food and nature. Everything was fresh from the market or backyard, without pesticides and eventually composted. This experience influenced me to work in European Affairs protecting citizens from toxic chemicals, which are making us sick Stateside. When I discovered that most chemicals in the US were not regulated, I knew I must move back and use my skillset to coach clients, first physically and later providing them with the knowledge to protect themselves and their families. What really inspired me to go further in my work was the moment my Father was diagnosed with ALS, a disease directly linked to identifiable neurotoxins. My Dad became the catalyst for speaking up about the necessity for reducing these toxins in your household, personal care products, food and water you are consuming. As a mother and mindful citizen, there is a need to help the community pass on safe practices to our future. My goal is to influence others to lead a healthier and above all mindful lifestyle.

In this seminar you will receive:

Let's Eat!

Create a masterpiece of yourself! Discuss heavy metals, not music, and what to do about them, learn how to read labels properly, and understand why eating real food will not only make you feel good, but look better.
Receive a cheat sheet to help you navigate in the grocery store

What's the Scoop?

Raise your hand if you love ice cream! In this Seminar we focus on the ingredients in dairy products (and meat) and why it is essential to read labels, understand what you are eating and how to protect your child’s fertility, prevent cancer and improve the immune system.

I feel pretty

Your skin is your largest organ. What you lather and smother on daily has a direct influence on your body, mood, immune system, metabolism, thyroid and reproductive organs. Let’s get naked on the real skinny of personal care products.

No plastic is fantastic

Although plastic is inevitable part of our lives, there are always ways to reduce usage, and if you want to have children, keep your metabolism high and your immune system pumping, then let me reveal a few ways to be more mindful in your space. We will discuss the different plastics and how each affects us and our surroundings.

Hanging at the crib

Everyone enjoys a bit of lounging in bed or on the sofa, so what are manufacturers putting on furniture and how does it affect us and our family? I intend to pull the covers out from under the healthy illusion of downtime, without challenging what occupies your space.

Take it off

Where are your clothes made, what are they made of and why does it matter?
Here we explore the ethical and sustainable issues around the fashion industry. Synthetic clothing made in certain countries is always sprayed with flame retardants. Learn why you might want to read labels.

Digital Detox

This is probably the hardest subject to tackle as we all love our phones, our iPads, our computers, but… The ramifications of prolonged use, particularly outside of work is detrimental to your health for many reasons. Let’s talk about it, no snap chatting.

Let's keep it clean

What you put on your floors, and your counters ends up in your mouth. Why does that matter, and how fragrance could be making you gain weight. What binds scents together is not all that clean…

More water please

What is in our water and what can we do to prevent contamination of our body through polluted drinking water? Let’s have a test and see how your water fairs. Understand the ins and outs of carbon filter versus reverse osmosis.

How to meditate

Beginning a meditation practice can seem scary and confusing at first. Understand the limitless benefits to mediation and which type would best suite you and your life.
