Spent the next year re-healing my gut, transforming my body images issues and realized I needed to heal from the inside out first before I could help anyone else. Started my culinary curiosity with smoothies, herbs and a positive attitude. I knew I could heal myself with the education, empowerment and whole foods paired with a positive attitude. LESSON: Listen to your body. It knows what it needs.
