Your weekly mojo!
I’m crying this morning as I write this! If I get nothing across in this I want to just say “follow your passion & calling in life”! The photo you see here is of a box I just opened from when I moved to California six years ago to the day! The box read do not open until December 14th 2015! In the box there are 5 newspaper articles written on me & the book I wrote about healing through this raw/detox lifestyle!
I found a sign up sheet for the first raw food class I’d ever given with 48 people on it. Keep in mind I lived in Ohio in a small town! When you said raw food people thought you meant sushi! This box also contained flyers for an organic co-op I ran for 2 years out of my garage! I had 7 farmers that would deliver to me weekly and I would divide the produce into boxes. People would come pick up organic in season produce out of my garage! In Dayton Ohio organic produce at the time was scarce & I knew the value of eating organic food.
What I found tear jerking was that on top, the only laminated article was of a woman with no legs who was an athlete. Reading that article inspired me to run my first marathon in 2009. On the top of the box it simply red “YES, YOU CAN! Don’t open until December 14th – 2015:)”
I would say I have quite the entrepreneurial spirit. I’ll also say I have a fabulous family who supported me emotionally even though they didn’t know what the hell I was doing smile emoticon God however has really been driving this! I knew I was on the right track because I was doing what I LOVED & it felt good!
Never has this felt like work once! To this day I love what I do! I love helping people with degenerative diseases feel better. I love helping men and women lose 20 30 50lbs! I love helping women who are struggling with hormonal issues, their hair falling out and all kinds of body issues feel better! Most of all I love helping the young women & men who have struggled with eating disorders find their path onto eating delicious nutritious healthy REAL food!
This is my calling in life! Yes~ I had to go through several trials and tribulations including a terrible eating disorder to get to this point. You know what, I wouldn’t change it for the world!
The lesson? NEVER give up on YOUR dreams! I went from people telling me I was absolutely crazy to having a YouTube channel that has surpassed two million views a social media following in the millions and now I’m working on my third book. So make your “YES YOU CAN” box TODAY! Because I’m here to tell you, YOU CAN do anything your heart leads you to!
This past weekend in Mexico!
The “man~pan~ion” took me to see some beautiful ocean front properties. Fitting for romance or a few million detoxing guests to come through:) It’s good to dream!
