MY STORY

How I Began and Where I’m Headed

I never thought that I would be Holistic Nutrition Consultant but HERE I AM! I have always loved to help others, however, I discovered that it was my mission in life 10 years ago.

I'm Santonia, and I'd like to welcome you to Phoenix's Health & Wellness. I'm a native of Alabama; however; I currently reside in Texas with my 9 year old daughter. I'm a military veteran. I love thrift store shopping, traveling, listening to music and exploring new foods.

It was never my desire to become vegan, but that all changed late one night while scrolling through Facebook early 2018. I vewied one of Tabitha's Brown's video's for the first time. Her laugh, bright smile, positive attitude and country accent were all infectious which led me follow her although I wasn't vegan. I recreated some of her vegan dishes and loved them. I officially began my vegan journey in January 2019 after viewing Tabitha's review of the Morning Star Chick'n nuggets. The physical and mental benefits were amazing. Therefore, I decided to "stick with it" because I was now intrigued and eager to learn more.

I began obtaining my second Master's in Holistic Nutrition at American College of Healthcare Sciences in 2021. During the time of obtaining my degree I made the informed decision to focus more on consuming plant based whole foods. I graduated in 2022. The journey has not been easy but it has been worth it.

I look forward to serving you all with the passion I have of helping others.
