Empowering Women to Take Control: A Journey to Fulfillment

The Best Investment you will ever make is in yourself! At some point you get tired of doing the same thing over & over and not seeing the change you crave, the change you desire! I was fed up with being over weight, tired, & body just a hot HAMS!!  To lose 5lbs take discipline. Imagine trying to lose 30, 50, 60, heck 100lbs. It comes with the mentality that enough is enough and you are ready to endure everything you need to get to your goals! The mindset you come into this journey with will not be the same mindset you will need to have to achieve one of the most intricate task!  It will take you to places mentally you must be ready for! You will not look at food the same as you do now. You will develop a relationship with your plate and your body will become your temple… literally!  You won’t just trash it and give it anything, you will be more intune and aware of the things you put into your body! Weight loss is deeper than just the physical. It’s deeper than jus...

Setting Intention Goals for the New Year: Reflect, Plan, and Achieve Embarking on the journey of setting intention goals for the New Year is an exciting adventure. It provides an opportunity to reflect on the past year while setting new expectations, outcomes, and outlines for the year ahead.

OMG!! I never would have never considered adding in more colorful foods to my plates or much less portioning my foods or eating with intentions.  The more I think 🤔 about where I was at when I started my journey.. {ONLY GOD KNOWS MY STORY}Look at my Life Now! Health is Life💯 I remember being so afraid of eating vegetables RAW🤦🏽‍♀️ yup, I sure was. I would think what if this makes me sick, or what if I vomit 🤮 and I just knew they were so nasty 🤢 I started out small, I would eat a carrot 🥕 yup you heard me,1 carrot. I really didn’t like the way they taste and they were so hard and crunchy. I just couldn’t get with that program.(I WAS TRYING)  It wasn’t until I actually watched a documentary that was called (Food Matters)!! I told myself after that, I will try to change and as I kept saying I will try, nothing happened. I didn’t change.  I couldn’t see me changing and why would I, everyone else I knew wasn’t worried about their food, all I knew was that my Fried chic...

You hear it all the time. Don’t doubt yourself. It’s really not doubting yourself, I believe it’s fear or nervousness that stops You from pushing yourself out of your comfort zone.  I believe that we tell ourselves these crazy beliefs and we tend to believe our own lies. That’s exactly where I was. I truly wanted my Wellness Business to Flourish, I truly wanted to help so many many, especially woman of color who doubt themselves and don’t believe that health is actually for them.  When we are young & little we learn nothing about nutrition, especially if you were raised in the 1977 era! We weren’t taught that health is wealth. That your body has so many different elements and specific parts that need to be taken care of. It’s an overall health for your entire body To experience.  Especially mental health, the words you speak to yourself and how you allow others to treat you as well as how you treat yourself. For woman of color the bar was definitely overlooked in that...

Veggies Saves Lives❤️❤️ I’m a true believer that they help heal, detoxify the body and help with releasing fats in your arteries to help you stay alive.  Think about this, your body goes through all types of changes daily, which means your body needs something to keep it a float, focused and maintained to flow everyday. Veggies help with cleansing the body, and replenish what you lose daily.  I EAT THEM EVERYDAY!!! My favorite veggies are  Red Peppers- they have a load of vitamin A and C because they stay on the vine the longest and let’s not forget how juicy they are! They help your skin glow and shine!  Mushrooms-when I discovered that they could possibly mitigate the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes and cancer! That’s all I needed to know. I lot of people can’t get down with mushrooms, but if you know how I know, you may need to make an exception to that rule you have! Eat to live!! Kale- loaded with Vitamin, Copper and Magnesium just to name a few, but ...

Structure to ones health is necessary! To understand what works & what doesn’t work are key components to weightloss and or staying the same.  In my Signature Coaching Program, I get down to the root of what stops or hinders you from achieving your weightloss goals. Most times it’s the very little details that’s right in front of you that you don’t even realize, which stops you from success.  Weightloss isn’t a one size fits all, it’s a series of events and emotions, physically and emotionally that are necessary to get you through your breakthrough. It took me 6 years to understand what was stopping me from losing the weight. Once I got clear on my goals, my aspirations and took action, everything started to shift & change.  It doesn’t have to take years for your breakthrough💯 You & I will work hand & hand to go through your life pages to get you on the road to:  ❤️Stopping the Self Doubt ❤️Eating for optimal health ❤️Stopping the negative thoughts ❤...

There is no way in the world 🌎 I’m ever going back to 267lbs! That was my wake up call! I no longer will be HELD captive to the old mindset & old habits.
