I really don't want people to focus on what they're taking out, focus on what you're putting in.
And when you focus on what you're putting in, those things will naturally fall to the wayside.
And then you can have a different conversation with your kids about why you're making the choices that you're making.
Instead of, no, you can't have that.
That's bad for you.
The conversation becomes, we're going to make this choice because it's more nourishing for us, for our bodies and our brains.
Yeah, thank you so much.
I'm excited to share this with your community.
I started all of this as a teacher.
I was a teacher for a lot of years.
And
As a teacher, I was trained with kind of alternative teaching methods, experiential education.
I was dealing with a lot of exceptional kids, a lot of kids who really needed something different.
And so, you know, we spent a lot of time in the classroom adjusting things for them and shifting the curriculum and shifting our expectations and shifting the classroom environment and getting them outside and doing all kinds of really cool, wonderful things with them.
But even despite that, so many of them were struggling.
And I really wanted to learn more about how we could better help kids grow into themselves, really discover who they were.
And I was feeling really constricted by being in the structure of school.
And so I left school for what I thought was going to be a short period of time to study holistic health and nutrition.
And then 10, I guess, 12 years later,
I am, you know, I still haven't, I didn't go back to the classroom.
