Profile Information

About Me:
I began this raw food lifestyle suddenly one day (12*6*07) after seeing Angela Stokes poi dancing video! Random? Yeah. It brought me to her website and that was the beginning of raw food in my life... I've been health conscious and an avid learner of all things health related for over 20 years now, and am loving the renewed youth and vigor raw food nutrition has brought to my body and mind! My kids swear that I'm younger now than I was 2 years ago, and I have to agree! :D

I'm a happy person by nature. And passionate about life. I was born and raised in Los Angeles/ Orange County. My husband is military and we've just been transplanted to Louisiana and love it so far.

I am currently coaching a 6 week program for people wanting to transition to greater health/ vitality, as well as putting together a teleseminar and writing a book. Whew, yeah. ;P Having a blast!

We have four children: ds 23 who is now married to a beautiful lady (see below) March 15th of last year and who have given us the pleasure of holding our very first grandson this year! dd 21 currently out in SoCal with my folks. dd 19 still at home (Yay! :D). And, last of the mohichans, ds 14 going on 25. We homeschooled the last 3 kids, and currently the youngest is reentering the public school system in a desperate desire to play football, lol. I have wanted for years to be involved in helping people change their lives through diet, exercise, etc. I have been looking for my niche... and I am finally moving into health transitions coaching. I am blessed...
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
Just community support, really.
Relationship Status:
Married
Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
thai coconuts, cucumbers and cherries
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
Natural medicine, essential oils, healthcoaching, devotions, learning, reading, homeschooling, people, poi dancing, flylady, frugal luxuries, the ocean, the mountains, candles... traveling!

GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )
Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.
Are you in the Monroe, La area and interested in feeling better, looking better, being informed and active in your health? It's my desire to meetup with like-minded individuals. I am a health transitions coach recently moved into Monroe.

I'd love to have fitness challenges, cooking/ uncooking classes, stress management classes, etc. as a part of this Vibrant Health Meetup.

what's up GI2MR friends??

It recently occurred to me as I was telling a friend about how I began my raw food journey, how much of a blessing this site has been to me, especially in the grueling early months of intense learning and shifting. I want to be a big part of this community again, and possibly pass on the knowledge/ experience that I have been getting along this journey!

I recently built a website intending on doing this in many aspects of life where I may have something to share. Lately I have added my new yumm… Continue

Good morning lovely raw peeps! Headed out for my daily walk with my daughter before the Louisiana day turns to sauna! Catch ya in an hour or so!

Hi, I received an email that you posted in the Raw Louisiana group but for whatever reason the post was not there when I logged in. Anyway just wanted to say hello. I am in Lafayette though my husband has family in Monroe. Raw is far and few between here as well. There was a raw meetup recently started here but I have yet to go. I have not seen many reply to going but I know they are trying to get it going and promoting it more so I am hoping to be able to make the next one. Also, coconuts are one thing I am looking for as well. I think there is a place out of Florida that you can by young ones by the case and have them shipped. My only experience with young coconuts is on trips to Hawaii. Durian in another item I desperately want to get my hands on. I have had durian smoothies from frozen and love them. Can't wait to try one.

Well, I never wasted away and actually feel that some of my deficiencies from poor digestion are turning around. But while I am getting the calories and nutrients I need, I sure do need to eat a lot! I often think of animals, like goats or rabbits...

New Zealand is just more environmentally conscientious than most places. I guess being an island is part of the reason. I loved NZ when I visited.

You could make an avocado chocolate (or carob) mousse but sweeten it with stevia, so you'll only be getting the fat and not the sugar. Or you could make a green smoothie (or a regular, non-fat smoothie) and freeze it into sorbet:-)
