Hello! Hello! Welcome to my page. 😊
Let me tell you a bit about myself and my journey to wellness.
I am a daughter, a wife, mother of 3 wonderful children(all grown), and Noni to two beautiful grandchildren. I have spent the better part of my life dedicated to the teaching profession, with a focus on little learners ages 3-6. I have loved every minute of it!
Recently, I found myself at a crossroad...desiring a new challenge, a new opportunity. Really, I was looking for diversity and creative fulfillment.
Along came 2020 and my desire to change grew exponentially. Pandemic, lockdown and changes to our normal also demonstrated the need more than ever, for humankind to be mindful and proactive about their health, my own included.
I am a Type II Diabetic of 28 years. I have enjoyed a relatively healthy life up until the last couple of years and then....anxiety, fatigue, inflammation, and even depression climbed aboard and nearly sabotaged my wellness efforts.
Over the years, I have researched and tried dozens of lifestyle changes and programs aimed at promoting health. Many fell short of their claims for a variety of reasons, e.g: unhealthy, gimmicky, unsustainable, no support. Some were AMAZING with great support, scientifically backed, wonderful companies but were often unaffordable. Even with the great health benefits it was very difficult to promote programs that could literally cost more than a mortgage payment per month! Not for me, for sure!😁
