Big Annoucement: Making It Happen!

This year, I gave myself
the gift of knowledge! 
I'm a firm believer that we should never blink an eye when it comes to making an investment in our health (ie - fueling our body with quality, whole foods) or our mind (knowledge is power).  My health and wellness journey over the last four and a half years has had a gradual build to where I stand today.  However, lately, my belief system and foundation has been shaping at an incredibly rapid pace; one of which leaves me hungry for more!  I have come to accept - embrace with open arms rather - that my passion for health, wellness, and happiness is not something I can't simply turn-off.  Much the same with my passion for writing, public relations, and marketing.  It's all part of who I am.   Isn't the combination rather fantastic? 

The more exposed I am to nutrition and living your ultimate life, the more I dig my heels into my belief that food changes everything.  We all should feel good - and I mean really good!  To do so you must have proper fuel, but it doesn't stop there....feeling good also includes being balanced -  believing that you are worthy, in other words,  loving yourself, having happiness in your relationship and your career, feeling empowered from physical activity - from movement, and having true peace with your faith.  Feeling good is beyond a beautiful thing! 


I am so excited to announce that I have decided to take my passion for proper fueling and living a balanced life to the next level.  I am officially a student at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN).  I have no doubt that this silly blog of mine helped me take the leap for continuing my education.  Seeing your life change by sharing with you the little bit I know, strikes a cord deep within -
I so love that I get to play a part in it!  Change in your life is so possible.  It's proven time and time again that a whole lot of simple adds up to greatness!

IIN is the world's largest nutrition school with this mission: To play a crucial role in improving health and happiness, and through that process, create a ripple effect that transforms the world.
I am excited to be a part of a like-minded community, and with that, excited to transform my knowledge base leaps and bounds by the teachings of people that I have grown a tremendous respect for. Learning what you love can be just as contagious as feeling good! 

While I don't give much buy-in to resolutions, I do believe it's powerful and impactful to give your year a theme.  2012 for me?  It's all about making it happen. 
A year from now, I will be able to add Certified Health Coach to my list - and come to the stage - this stage - from a place of time tested knowledge.  How cool is that?

Celebrating 2011 & the fun-filled journey ahead!
