From the Heart

If you want it straight from the heart, honest, genuine, with passion and compassion, you need to listen to Shelly. I’ve never met anyone so full of life and energy, and all about helping educate other people.
When your path crosses with someone like Shelly’s and you get to know her, you begin to understand why your own health, well being and self-care are vital to who you are and how you relate to the world. Shelly’s positivity and insight in respect to all things physical, mental and spiritual is inspiring. There’s never any judgment, just listening and sharing.

Of our heartaches and struggles are, and how important it is to band together for healing and change. Can’t wait to hear more!
