  • We Love to Share

    We love sharing this program that has helped more than a thousand people restore their health, lose weight naturally and create a healthy relationship with food. All that through a simple understanding of our true nature and our innate intelligence that effortlessly guides us to the food and lifestyle choices that return us to balance and thriving.

    Our Journey

    We both suffered from advanced chronic conditions and resolved them entirely by switching to a whole food plant based (WFPB) diet. Having experienced the regenerative power of the body and the possibility of aging without pain or lack of mobility, we share this understanding with deep care and whole-hearted support.
     
    The journey began when my first husband (not Bill) was diagnosed with a heart arrhythmia in the '80s, and I turned my focus to WFPB to (successfully) help him correct it. Intrigued by the power of WFPB, I studied with several experts and, when I met Bill, shared this knowledge to help him resolve his severe arthritic condition. 
      
    Having the personal experience of the power of food to restore health, we enthusiastically opened an organic, WFPB restaurant in Santa Fe, NM, in 1993. We ran the restaurant for five years and then transitioned to teaching and coaching others to experience the benefits of switching to this type of food and lifestyle.
     
    In 2019, we added personal coaching to the program to help our clients change their unwanted food habits without willpower or self-discipline by connecting with their true nature and helping to end the recurring cycle of yo-yo dieting. 
     
    When we create a healthy relationship with food and who we really are, change happens naturally and effortlessly.
     
    When we aren't in the kitchen, you'll find us wandering the trails in the hills above Kelowna, watching our favourite (and finding new favourite) movies on Netflix, or playing pickleball (Bill) and the piano (Connie).
