Why Autumn's Harvest?
I have created Autumn's Harvest, LLC to be able to share knowledge that has helped me along my journey, one that continues today as I adore learning and enjoy challenging myself.
I have been going through some serious transformation. Most of my life, I ate the 'Standard American Diet' (aka SAD foods) almost exclusively. My go-to foods included cheeseburgers, cheese noodles, French fries, pizza and anything sweet. Animal products, fried or packaged 'foods' were the basis for most meals. Veggies and I were not very acquainted. My occasional salad was covered in ranch, cheese and croutons.
​
Flash forward: I now eat a whole foods plant-based diet. On average, I eat two raw meals a day, all plant based. Being Vegan to me is a compassionate way of life that fits with my values. Hence I avoid animal products. Colorful vegetables and fruits, abundant taste and creativity have replaced convenience. I have found a way to love myself, animals and the planet with each meal, striving to prevent disease.

Flash forward: I now eat a whole foods plant-based diet.
For many years, my job required hours sitting at a computer, and it took its toll. Every day was the same: my muscles were tight, my joints inflamed, and body ached all over. I grew more toxic daily due to the foods I consumed, and incidental environmental toxins we are all exposed to. Being laid off was a low point that allowed me the opportunity to re-evaluate what I was doing with my life.
How could I be kinder to and take better care of myself?
I did a lot of research on what would prevent, and potentially reverse, disease, especially cancer. Along the way, some things really stuck: vegetable juicing, an alkalizing plant-based diet, herbal supplementation, and overall chemical avoidance where possible.
​
My natural and healthy lifestyle adjustments allowed me to drop 60lbs in 9 months. I experienced a full 180 in my energy, inflammation, awareness, appreciation, spirituality, compassion and mindset. As my health has improved people have been asking what I am doing to see such results.
In upcoming posts, videos and free guides, I will share more of my story, tips, truths, peaks and the pivot points.
I really enjoy connecting with clients and I thrive when clients succeed and surpass personal goals. Each client inspiring me to continue on my health harvesting journey.
