Reclaiming The Living State

About Me

I was introduced to the kitchen as early as I can remember, watching my mother skillfully prepare food. I studied and admired what it took to create a warm, hospitable environment for people to experience. For the past 35 plus years, I have shared that passion in restaurant kitchens, private events, establishments and in my very own home.

The Truth to About Nutrition

We are taught very early on to rely on diets that do not support our bodies to function optimally. I was not immune to this influence. My experience led me to whole foods and I never looked back since. You can learn more about my story here. I've learned that we don't need eat nearly as much as we do today. The key is to eat real food. Living food. Whole food.

Mind & Body Connection

Food is one aspect of what affects our bodies and our states; what we put in our stomachs. One thing I'd like to delve deeper on is on what we feed our minds and the words we speak. The same way we want to feed life into our bodies, we want to feed life into our efforts and outcomes. This is what I tell the people I come across - my guests, students and what I share online.

Challenges

If you have been following my TikToks, you know that I have been working through some challenges in my own life. It is primarily for this reason that humbly I request donations through GoFundMe to continue my work and protect my livelihood and family dwelling. Otherwise, kindly share my courses - resources that are very helpful to people - and support my store. I appreciate every effort big or small.
