About Me


Hey there!




Thank you for stopping by my site!

I am a 40+ year old that has been on a health journey for 10 years.

In a world full of health labels and fade diets, I am just trying to keep my health journey back to the basics and not to confusing.

Hope this page will help inspire you to live a healthier lifestyle.
