About
My reason for Living
I am first and foremost a mom and wife. We have 7 children that we homeschool (yes, I birthed each one individually!). We love to ski/snowboard, camp, make healthy treats, and play in our creek! When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, it was the focus on my family that got me through the rocky journey.
We live in rural Idaho on 15 acres where we raise cows and chickens along with organic produce. I am passionate about practicing what I preach and am continually working to improve my health and the health of my family.
I get asked all the time how I do it with 7 homeschooled kids, but honestly, I couldn’t do it without them! My kids are not only my inspiration but they help with the cooking and cleaning and running the farm. They also literally help with our business doing things such as video editing, IG posts, recipe testing/tasting, etc. And my 11 year old is the artist for the cover of my book (just a little proud of her!).
We moved to Idaho because we wanted a more rural life and to have our own animals that we would know what they are eating (because that is what we’ll be eating!). Yes, we are the crazies that do “all the stuff!” But after overcoming cancer, I’m serious about health –
mine and yours!
