My name is Sara, and the purpose of this page is to extend an invitation to create/join communities. My intention is to recreate tribe – a tribe of people, especially of women, who empower each other, unconditionally love each other and partner with each other. A tribe that has each member as their own leader in life, living with an open heart, forgiving mistakes, loving his/her own strengths AND weaknesses, talents AND ‘flaws’ and lives with intention, purpose and integrity. Our emotional wellness is OURS. Our family dynamic – OURS; relationships with friends and lovers – OURS; finances – OURS; the planet and its resources – OURS. Not ours to forcibly own or control but ours to protect, honor, and take radical accountability for. Each of us 100% responsible. I’m choosing to make MY part in this movement about education, empowerment and support for those ready to own their accountability. Through classes and workshops that share natural, effective, safe and affordable solutions for life’s necessities, my mission is to build bridges that bond over our similarities, celebrate our differences, and learn from respectful discussion through the process. Our culture and society has many quick, conventional options easily available to supposedly help with life’s demands, and yet I often found myself not entirely happy with them. With medicines and “health care” I often felt worse as my body struggled to rebalance after treatment; conventional off-the-shelf personal care products left me either striped and dry or coated in ingredients I couldn’t pronounce; my conscience cringed as the environment was continually burdened with chemicals and waste from the production and use of such products; our public education system seemingly focused on making clones for cubicle jobs void of art, music, physical exercise and social/emotional competency, and then the ‘norm’ of having thousands of dollars in debt to continue our schooling for these unfulfilling jobs; our “food” barely fitting the description of what our bodies truly need to grow and thrive… does anybody share these concerns? I started making these realizations for myself in 2010 as I was pursuing my graduate degree, working as a substitute teacher, was about 50lbs heavier, my body ached, my mood was bland and very lack-luster, and I started realizing that everything I thought I was supposed to be doing was not only leaving me struggling to get out of bed in the morning, it straight-up just DID NOT MAKE SENSE. It was then that I started my wellness journey, although I didn’t recognize it until much later. My first step began very simply with drinking more water. Yup, that’s right, water! (read more and see before and after pictures here) I began taking responsibility for my own health, and although initially going against convention left some puzzled expressions on the faces of those closest to me, today I couldn’t be happier and many of my loved ones have joined me in making the lifestyle changes, little by little, to own their health and wellness too!!! Feel free to join us! Follow this page, join the tribe, schedule a class, message me for individualized support! Although you need to take the first step, you don’t have to be on this journey alone! You’ve got a tribe behind you!
