From Transition to Transformation

Welcome to the Kickass Culture Food Experience!   I am excited to invite you all on this transformative journey with me! 2018 was very much a transitional year for me.   I watched a dear friend transition from an earthly to a heavenly home–all due to an illness associated with lifestyle choices.  I discovered the joy & benefits of daily walking with a friend and made a decision to align my lifestyle with people, places and things that make me and my family healthy, happy and well.

I believe the transitions of 2018 will translate into the TRANSFORMATION of 2019.   I’ve struggled so much in the past to lose weight, eat heathy, and exercise regularly.  I didn’t stop and take the time to quiet my mind, be still and appreciate the daily grace, glory and blessings given to me without fail by God.  This year, I took a pause from work, friends and my typical lifestyle and I stopped, walked and talked daily.  In the process, I discovered the power and pain of self-reflection.  The power and pain of addiction.  The power and pain of a supportive village.  The power and pain of the will to live or die.  The power and pain of love.   The power and pain associated with loss.  The power and pain associated with failure.  And so on …

If I’ve never known. I know now what is motivating me this time to succeed in my quest for a healthy lifestyle.   After countless hours of walking and stimulating conversation with my walking buddy, I am convinced that I am motivated by the power of LOVE.  Not just the romantic type of love, or the love we have for our children.  I am seeking a deeper, more committed love for myself.  I want to be able to confidently feel worthy of being loved by God & others, because I am first loved by myself.  Hence, the commitment to SOUL30 & Kickass Cultural Food!

I hope we can take this journey together into a healthful life, full of all the benefits of a food, fitness and mindful practice that’s good for your soul.   What is your healthful plan for 2019?  Join us for the January Soul30 Reset!

Let’s go, Love and kickass!
