    Vegan Starter Guide Update, NEW Bundle & More

    Feb 24, 2016 • eBooks, Wellness & Lifestyle

    YAY!

    This week I’ve been chugging coffee and finishing up a few updates here on the blog as well as making updates to my ebooks, mainly my  Vegan Starter Guide, formerly called The Glow Effect. I felt like it needed some changes as it was created over 2 years ago. I’ve learned a lot since then and this update reflects that. With a new cover page, new title, whole new format and more – I think you will love it!

    If you have already purchased my Vegan Starter Guide, don’t worry, you should be receiving an email update within the next 24 hours.

    Here’s a sneak peek!

    Vegan Starter Guide Preview

    The 2 for $20 Bundle:

    If you haven’t yet heard of my ebooks, now is a perfect time to pick them up because I finally created a special 2 FOR $20 BUNDLE, so you can get the best of both worlds. The bundle includes my Vegan Starter Guide and the 5 Day Cleanse – They complement one another and were created to work best when used together. The idea is to learn how to live plant based through the Starter Guide and then transition into this healthy life by doing the Cleanse. Then you are well on your way to mastering the plant based lifestyle!

    Doing it this way really prepares the mind & body and is SO helpful at jumpstarting your new health journey. You’ll have tons of information to always go back to if you’re ever feeling lost – my tips, exclusive recipes, FAQ’s, shopping lists, meal planning guides and so much more. Plus, you’ll receive all future updates.

    2 for $20 BUNDLE - Vegan Starter Guide & 5 Day Cleanse - The Glowing Fridge

    Other Updates! 

    1) I’ve refreshed my About page with new pictures and made some changes to ‘My Vegan Story’ as well, so be sure to check those out!

    2) I’m working on a new Fitness section here on the blog and I need your help! Incorporating this aspect is important to me as I haven’t yet shared anything regarding exercise and have gotten more requests lately, especially with summer coming! 

    What kinds of fitness posts do you want to see? Not that I’m a fitness expert… but maybe my Favorite Workouts? Exercise Philosophy? Pre-Workout Tips? What to eat before/after a workout?! 

    I think that’s it for now, let me know what you think of all the new updates 🙂

    Happy Wednesday!

      I bought and read through the Starter Guide and Cleanse last night. I’ve been cleaning out my frig, pantry and beauty cabinet (for a couple weeks–although I’ve really been half-heartedly making this transition for a year) and making my shopping lists. I can’t wait to begin this journey!

        Yay Nikki! So happy you read through them. It takes a while to clean everything out – especially beauty products!! So awesome that you’re making the transition, it’s an amazing way to live 🙂

        xoxo,
        Shannon

    & my hair needed SERIOUS HELP. It was super oily & my hair needed SERIOUS HELP.

It was super oily and greasy with buildup from past products. I was washing daily… and just unhappy with the dullness and lack of volume. That has since changed!

Aside from getting transformed hair, this opportunity allows motivated women to have another income source. It allows mamas to have the best of both worlds - their own income while raising their babies (if you’re in that phase of life). It provides social media training, so much guidance and support (you’re never doing it alone), earned confidence and most importantly, community. Some of my best friends are here now because we talk daily and know everything about each other’s lives! Surrounding yourself with like-minded successful women can turn your life around. I’m not kidding. You are who you surround yourself with. It’s more than just shampoo. 

All it takes is deciding YES and stepping out of your comfort zone.  Don’t let life pass you by. Stop wondering and start taking action! 🥂 

If you’re ready, DM me BIZ and let’s chat 💞

    what healing looks like 🌼🩷 I starts out my what healing looks like 🌼🩷

I starts out my morning with a bunch of supplements to eliminate parasites and bacteria and repair my gut while supporting my liver and gallbladder. Next I make a protein smoothie with vanilla whey protein powder and a custom supplement to support my deficiencies. And lastly my creamy dandy blend latte because I’m not drinking coffee right now.

This is what works for me right now! I also have gf toast usually from @awgbakery. I’ve had to eliminate so many things but it’s all for good reason, to reduce all the inflammation. I’m working with @lifelabwellnessco if you would like your own custom plan and testing 🙏🏼 should I share more videos like this?
