    Home Alone :: Busy Dreaming & Going Insane.

    We spent a night in LA last night, which was nice. But at the same time, I knew that ONE MORE night would just not be fun at all. So I came home with the boys and daddy stayed in LA for work. Bummer.

    Soo....here I am. Home alone tonight and all day long with boys - my little babies that are BOTH under age of 2. I love it, but some days are more challenging than others, as one might assume. Especially when BOTH boys just don't "feel like" napping! Yup, just don't want to! 

    On top of it all, right now, as I write this, my youngest (7.5 months) is screaming for some ODD reason, only an hour after I put him down. Both my boys went down an hour ago and I was IN HEAVEN, just happy to clean up the house and sit down for a bit on the computer before bed and for the FIRST time today. I mean, I LIVE for this time, I NEED this time in my day! Don't we all?

    BUT NO...no!! Of course not. It's only when I'm alone and dad's nowhere nearby that these kind of shenanigans happen.

    I just went up to check on him, he didn't want to feed, he had a clean diaper and didn't even want to be rocked. I assume it was a dream or his teeth or maybe an upset stomach. How the heck should I know? I mean, I am his mom and I know his cries at times. But, I can't read minds and after a long long day, it's not a challenge I have the patience for.  

    So I had no other choice but to just put him back in bed to fall asleep. UGH. He's still making noise. I'm going insane. 😉

    So...that being said, I've been busy today. BUT DREAMING OF SITTING AROUND THESE FIREPLACES. 

    Can you blame me?

    Welcome to my 20-year plant-based journey.

    After healing my own auto-immune disease and starting an International food company, I have since made it my goal is to help as many people as I can switch to a more plant-based diet and to make healthier food choices. Certified in plant-based nutrition.

    Join me on this journey; I'm here to serve and help.

    I trust the science that backs it. More about me →

    Let’s get real : Succeeding at anything takes discipline. Even manifesting takes discipline. Often clients say that they tried this diet or that diet. And they can’t seem to reach their health goals or heal or lose weight. And every time we take a deep look it’s because there really isn’t the discipline they think there is! The same way a fish doesn’t see water we have a hard time recognizing our own self sabotaging habits and patterns. 
I’m not talking about restriction or lack or counting calories or counting fat grams. That’s old-school. Don’t confuse discipline with restriction.
P.S. this my first attempt at trying out trending audios😜🤷‍♀️

    Damn this combo of garlic, ginger and tahini over
    Damn this combo of garlic, ginger and tahini over sautéed potatoes is 💣. I love tahini dressing because of how creamy it gets without using cashews or dairy products. I first sautéed the potatoes in vegan butter. I added a few shallots for fun. THAT’S IT. If you cut them thin enough they cook in just 5-6 minutes on medium high heat. I added raw kale to them for added fiber and minerals. 
Dressing 
2 cloves garlic
1/4 inch piece of fresh ginger
1 whole lemon
2-3 Tbsp sesame oil, 
1 heaping Tbsp tahini
2 Tbsp water
big pinch sea salt. 
blend it all together until creamy and chunk-free. 
Enjoy

    LISTEN 👂I wish somebody shared this wisdom with
    LISTEN 👂I wish somebody shared this wisdom with me when I was younger. 
I used to think perfection was actually THE goal in life. Literally that’s what I thought - be your best, do your best, be the nicest, get the best grades, look your best, date the best, eat the best, do no wrong, don’t argue, be happy and makes others happy, give give give…and if I didn’t accomplish those things I was very concerned. I wondered what was wrong with me and punish myself. I know…laughable right? But nobody told me otherwise🤷‍♀️ 
This is what a version of codependency looks like: perpetual state of feeling not good enough, constant state of fear or fight or flight…exhausting, defeating and eventually leads to dis-ease. A victim in almost all areas of your life: “Why is this person being awful to me, why am I sick when others are well, this isn’t fair”. 
After deep healing and self exploration, I clearly see how my ways of looking at life, my own actions (people pleasing or having no boundaries), attract the abusers, users, haters, broken people; I attracted people to treat me poorly. 
So, this is what is meant by “taking accountability” for your life and understanding why certain things are happening “to you”. 
Not everybody is supposed to like you or agree with you or UNDERSTAND YOU. But taking it PERSONAL (becoming a victim) is your choice. Being Treated with complete disrespect is THEIR choice. Playing IN THE game of TOXICITY however is also your choice.
Freedom is attainable. Healing is attainable. Harmony and peace are attainable. It just requires radical self awareness. Today I choose to break the rules that were never there to begin with.

    🍌🍌🍌As you can see I have been on a crepes binge lately!This time I’m making sweet crepes. Need to use up your overly ripe bananas? This is the recipe for you! 
Batter
2 ripe bananas
1 1/2 c gf flour

Delicious and healthy! What will you put inside your crepes?

    3 INGREDIENT CREPES! I made savory spinach crepes (gluten-free) a few weeks ago. This time Im coming in hot with a basil version and get this: you only need 3 ingredients to make these wraps. Use them with all sorts of delicious ingredients like hummus, quac, beans, tofu, garlic sauce, raw or roasted veggies and more. Have fun with them. Link to full recipe in my bio. Enjoy!

    Sometimes I like to just enjoy slow days full of cleaning, music, cooking and just being grateful I’m alive and healthy! Aaaah the best feeling!
I cooked my butternut squash in olive oil, garlic, cumin, pepper and sea salt. That’s it. The sage was an easy bonus. Simple. And healthy.
