“My husband Mike got sick, it was a few years ago … he was diagnosed with stage four stomach cancer. It was just such a shock. We eat well, we live on the farm … so we’re already eating well, and really paying attention to what we’re putting in our bodies.”

I am always asked how I started this journey. This is a longer conversation but in short what we are dealing with here has pushed me deeply into understanding our bodies and how our minds and emotions are so interconnected that you cannot treat one without the other. Our thoughts and intentions are as powerful and key as our skin health and fitness. I want to live well and this is me sharing what I know to be true.”
