Discovering an allergy to hair color was a pivotal moment in my life, one that ignited the spark for my low-tox holistic blog. As a dedicated hairdresser, my career had always revolved around the art of making others look and feel beautiful. Little did I know that my own health would lead me down a path of profound transformation.

The realization of my allergy wasn't just a health concern; it was a profound wake-up call that beckoned me to reevaluate not only my professional life but also my personal choices. I embarked on a journey to eliminate toxins from every facet of my existence, seeking a holistic approach to well-being. Which in turn, also let me back to my roots.

The path to health would also be the path back to our indigenous culture and our sacred earth. My mother and I had long understood the intrinsic link between our well-being and the health of the planet. Her song had always played in our soul and vibrated our bones. Calling us back home. So, it was such beautiful validation when the day came for my mother to be reunited with our Ohlone Ancestors.  This blessed experience has profoundly influenced my journey towards holistic living, where I prioritize clean, toxin-free choices that honor our sacred bond with the environment.

This transformation was profound, and I felt compelled to share my experiences with others. My low-tox holistic blog became a platform to document my journey, from detoxifying my beauty regimen to embracing cleaner, more nourishing dietary choices. I discovered the empowerment that comes from making informed, holistic decisions about what we put in and on our bodies.

By sharing my story and knowledge, I hope to inspire others who may be facing similar challenges or simply seeking a healthier, more balanced life. Through my blog, I aim to provide practical advice, authentic experiences, and a supportive community that encourages individuals to prioritize their health, wellness, and self-love.

My journey as a hairdresser turned holistic advocate has not only transformed my own life but also reaffirmed my belief in the power of holistic living. We are  all indigenous to this planet and can find connection to ourselves and the planet.  We all have a right to discover the path to health, happiness, and a vibrant life that is right for us. My goal, is to simply be a resource of love and knowledge for when you're craving a little more connection.

At the age of 60 years old, my life took a profound turn when I embarked on a journey to reconnect with my Ohlone ancestors. Though the calling had always whispered in the background of my existence, it took decades to recognize its significance fully. Little did I know that this reunion would not only validate my lifelong inclinations but also deeply influence my low-tox journey and inspire me to join forces with my daughter in our mission to teach others healthier ways of living.

As a woman of Native American descent, the connection to the land and the reverence for its gifts had always been a part of my cultural heritage. I carried within me the knowledge that our well-being is intricately tied to the well-being of the earth. This understanding inherently influenced my lifestyle, driving me toward cleaner, toxin-free choices and sustainable practices.

However, it was only after reconnecting with my Ohlone ancestors and my Native American family that this calling was fully validated. Meeting my relatives and immersing myself in their traditions brought a profound sense of purpose and a renewed commitment to the path of holistic living.

The wisdom of my ancestors, passed down through generations, deepened my appreciation for the healing power of nature, the importance of clean eating, and the spiritual significance of self-love. These insights became even more profound as I integrated them into my daily life, nurturing my mind, body, and spirit.

Now, in collaboration with my daughter, we have embarked on a shared mission to inspire and guide others in their low-tox journey. Our holistic blog is a testament to the harmonious blend of ancient wisdom and modern wellness. Together, we aim to empower people to live healthier, happier lives in harmony with the earth and themselves.

Reuniting with my Ohlone ancestors has been the culmination of a lifelong calling, and it has given me the strength, purpose, and wisdom to embrace and share my story and the beauty of a low-tox, holistic lifestyle with the world.

Get to know us

Our Native American heritage deeply influences our holistic, low-tox blog. We embrace age-old traditions, connecting to the earth's natural rhythms. This heritage fuels our commitment to sustainable, toxin-free living, drawing from ancient wisdom to promote holistic wellness in harmony with nature. We are committed to honoring our ancestors and the planet.

100%

our
commitment

Our journey into the world of holistic, low-tox living is deeply rooted in our Native American heritage. For decades, my mother and I ignored the calling from our ancestors within us. We were told that our ways were of dark magic and to "be careful". The western ways of thinking did not approve of our witchy ways. Only to find out years later, after connecting with her birth family, my Mom confirmed that we were in fact direct decedents of the Ohlone Tribe. My mother and I couldn't have felt more validated and knew it was the very thing that profoundly shaped our values, lifestyle, and our commitment to helping others live healthier and happier lives.

For generations, our Native American culture has celebrated a deep connection with Mother Earth. We've learned that our well-being is intrinsically linked to the health of the planet. This understanding has guided us in our pursuit of holistic living, where we prioritize clean, toxin-free choices that not only benefit us but also honor our sacred bond with the environment.

One of the core principles we've inherited from our heritage is the profound respect for nature's gifts. We've witnessed the healing power of traditional herbs, the nourishment of organic foods, and the therapeutic benefits of connecting with the earth. These insights have become the cornerstone of our blog, influencing our content on clean eating, natural skincare, and sustainable living.

Our ancestors' wisdom also guides us in mindful practices. We understand the importance of balance and harmony in all aspects of life. From meditation to indigenous rituals, we incorporate these practices into our holistic approach, encouraging our readers to find serenity and balance in their daily routines.

But perhaps the most significant influence from our Native American roots is our reverence for self-love and empowerment. We've learned that to care for others and the world around us, we must first care for ourselves. Through self-love rituals and personal growth, we aim to empower our readers to embrace their unique journeys towards well-being.

As we share our holistic journey with the world, our indigenous roots will always be a core value. We believe that by connecting with Mother Earth and drawing from the wisdom of our ancestors, we can guide others towards a life that not only thrives but also honors the planet we all call home. Our blog is a testament to this enduring commitment, offering a bridge between ancient traditions and modern wellness, where together, we can live healthier, happier lives in harmony with the earth.
