I will never sugar coat my experience. If you're searching for a pristine, flawless, skyrocket to raw perfection, this is not it. My raw journey resembles a big pile of knotted zoodles. I bought my first raw book, Juliano's RAW in 2000. In 2006, I finally realized that raw was an actual lifestyle, not just a handful of freakishly disciplined people. Then I started 'going raw.' I've gone raw and careened off it hundreds of times. But I'm always learning and honing my skills. I will not stop. I can't. There's nothing like raw. I believe it gives me the absolute best version of myself - hands down, the person I was always meant to be. How can you discover your full potential, if you're not consuming the best fuel you can get your hands on? Raw veganism is an incredibly healing path. It's also the way I choose to manage my ADHD and the most effective way I've discovered since being diagnosed at age 6. In 2005 at hypnotherapy school, I experien Poppy's Prep School Val Poppy Hey there! I'm Val, and I've been an academic coach for over three years. But it's more than that. I've lived it.
