Wow—it’s been 11 years since my last blog post! Life has a way of taking us on unexpected journeys, but even though time got away from me, I never forgot about this space and the vision I had for it. So here I am, picking up where I left off, with even more experiences and insights to share.
A lot has happened since 2014. I’ve been divorced, remarried, changed my last name three times, switched jobs 3 times and gone through all the ups and downs that life brings. But through it all, one thing has remained constant: my passion for health and helping others along the way.
We live in a world full of distractions, ever-changing trends, and conflicting advice about what’s “good” or “bad” for us. It can be overwhelming to sort through it all. My goal is to keep things simple and stick to the basics—what truly matters when it comes to health and wellness.
Over the years, my approach to healthy living has evolved. It started with food—choosing organic milk, then eggs, then meat, and gradually learning what works best for me. While not everything labeled “organic” is necessarily great, I believe it’s especially important when it comes to animal products, fruits, and vegetables. Sticking to the Dirty Dozen list has been a game-changer for me.
But health isn’t just about food. I’ve become more conscious of what I put on my skin, the makeup I use, the hair products I trust, and even the cleaning supplies in my home. The Yuka app has been an amazing resource in helping me make better choices, and I’m excited to share my favorite brands and personal product recommendations with you.
I’ve also started making some of my own cleaning products, and I can’t wait to share those with you too!
I’m beyond excited to be back and reconnect with this community. Let’s make this journey together—one simple, healthy choice at a time!
sincerely,
Denise
