From a young age, I was always extremely curious about the natural approach to medicine and healing, after witnessing those around me on multiple medications to treat health challenges. I was curious to understand why individuals struggled to maintain their health once discharged from hospital, which led me to think, what could be done from a maintenance perspective in continuing the healing journey at home. It was at this stage that my quest for knowledge was sparked. Fast forward almost 30 years later, life happened which took my focus in a different direction. However, on reflection, realised I am right where I need to be.   
  
Due to my own health challenges, I decided to seek professional help via a nutritional therapist after becoming frustrated with visits to the doctor and hospitals with no clear guidance or solutions that I felt comfortable or satisfied with. The nutritional therapist advised a three-month detox, which led me to go from vegetarian to plant based virtually overnight. 
 
It was difficult going to restaurants and feeling like food options were extremely limited, whilst watching others enjoy their meals. It was even more difficult eating with other people who could not comprehend my reasons for change, being the only person within my inner circle embarking on a transformative healing programme.  
 
There were moments where I wanted to give up, and go back to my old habits. However, the voice within kept reminding me of my why? My want to do better, be better. To give my vessel the respect it deserves as an act of self-love.  
 
I understand first hand that taking ownership over your health can be challenging and even more so, if you are embarking on the journey without the support of those around you. I am here for you.

Divine Love & Light,
