I Want to Work For Full Quiver Farms!

ull Quiver Farms is a local farm that produces quality uspasturized dairy products, REAL farm fresh eggs & other quality 100% REAL foods for local Dallas co-ops & other all natural stores here in the DFW area.

When a person is able to speak about an experience & is able to create a feel for what may be, true fun, true passion true "love for the job", they in a sense "paint you a picture with words" & make you laugh just a little... I usually consider that a pretty cool experience.

In the journey of creating NDBC & learning SO MANY things in the that time, my experiences have truly been so. I could write you a few lines of my Full Quiver Farm experience & tell you all about picking up for the co-op... but I would rather show you a few pictures! So much easier! Enjoy!

Quality Cooking With Quality Food

A Unique Cook Book

If you haven't heard me say this, or if you haven't read this statement in anything that I have posted or sent you... I want you to know (client or not), that I will ALWAYS do my ABSOLUTE BEST to provide you with the BEST information, products & service. I think that any business with this as part of their philosophy, truly has the BEST interest of their clients, customers & users in mind. This should tell you that I truly care & want YOU to be better!

With all the new hype about eating organic, raw, unprocessed, joining co-ops, "natural", "healthy" (I think that those 2 words have totally been skewed in a direction that doesn't stand strong), there are many people asking questions like...

"What do I cook? How do I prepare all the food I am now buying whole? How can I still enjoy my food without making it "unhealthy?" What ingredients are best to use with my organic food? How can I get the best $value$ from the food that I am now buying? How can I have fun in the kitchen? How do I know if this "new" food is truly better? How can I still live my busy lifestyle & still eat what's best for me? What is convenient?"

A couple of my colleagues from The Movement Dallas have introduced me to a book that helps to answer ALL & many more of these questions that you may have. This book is called Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon.

"Nourshing Traditions offers modern families a fascinating guide to wise food choices & proper preperation techniques. Nutrition researcher Dally Fallon unites the wisdom of the ancients with the latest independent & accurate scientific research. This edition contains over 700 delicious recipes that will please anyone from exacting gourmets & busy parents."

This book has been a great help for me in my "continuing to be better lifestyle" & has taught me so many interesting facts aboutthe foods that I eat, what I THOUGHT was good for me & what others tell me I should & shouldn't have in my diet. I would like for all of you to consider this source & include it in your kitchen. Cook a meal with your family, your friends or even your co-workers. We have always used food as a social ingredient, let's make that ingredient that best that we can so that we continuously enjoy getting better, at the same time improving our life source Mother Nature.

TEDxSMU: Check Out TED

I recently stumbled upon an AWESOME website called TED. I spent 2.5 hours yesterday surfing this site & felt that this is a site I would like to tell you about. It is one POWERFUL tool to get you to start thinking & asking. Which believe it or not... not very many of us do! Anyway, I applied to attend their live event here in Dallas & wanted to share with everyone what that process was like! NOTHING LIKE ANY APPLICATION PROCESS I HAVE EVER GONE THROUGH BEFORE! Part of the application asked the following questions:

This Is R.E.A.L.

1. Why do you want to attend?
2. What are your passions & accomplishments?
3. Is there anything else you want us to know?

Here were my responses:

1. My wants for attending the conference would be to listen, learn, watch, engage, connect, network, share & educate. Feeling, hearing & seeing all the creative talks, passions & ideas of other educators, writers, inventors & musicians will feed the constant empowerment I have, & help re-fuel my energy so that I can continue to create ideas & "tribes" that contribute to the betterment & changing of the world. I want to attend TED to create an opportunity that will allow a representative from a community movement or "tribe" my colleagues & I have created, to be a speaker at the next conference &/or somehow part of this conference. I want to feel what it's like to be around such creativity & powerful energy, weather it's negative or positive. I want to be able to someday write & tell others that this TEDxSMU event was a huge part of not only my growth as a R.E.A.L (one of my new concepts) entrepreneur, but also my growth as a tool of Divine Genius. I want to attend this event because today was LITERALLY the first time I have EVER heard of TED (through the Mercola.com website), & now I am filling out an application to actually get the chance to attend a live event. I spent 2.5 hours watching talks, the whole time visualizing myself speaking my words on a TED stage. I posted the TED link on my Facebook & commented that "I found a new favorite website", & a women I don't even know sent me this link. Please explain to me how this is not meant to be?

2. My passions are simple. Similar to others I'm sure but they are to continue to educate, to inspire, to create, to infiltrate, to spread, to heal, to love, to give, to help, to provide, to grow, to make better better, to change, to serve & to lead. My job is to awaken possibility & limitless opportunity in other people. "It’s not about wealth & fame & power… it’s about how many shining eyes I have around me", created from my passions. I have a passion of doing all of this by changing the way people eat, move, think & live. Specifically through the industry of health, wellness & fitness. I have a passion for continuing to be a successful entrepreneur by creating businesses that are going to help people be healthier & provide jobs at the same time. I also have an extreme passion for keeping our life source & my creator, Mother Nature, strong, healthy & beautiful. I find beauty in all life & things created from Mother Nature. Hell, I pick up trash during my runs in my neighborhood! LOL : ) Some of my big achievements have been moving to the "big city", losing 84 pounds, connecting myself with support, successfully starting my own businesses, becoming an educator & connector, releasing myself of restricted & limited thoughts & beliefs, coming "out of the closet" & creating a job that I love.

3. I have created a concept that I call R.E.A.L. The components are REAL Eating, REAL Movement & REAL Thinking. Which comes together as R.E.A.L. (Real Eating And Living) This is the "modern holistic" term, concept or idea that I am creating the foundations for my businesses & education. The REAL term is the "new holistic" & creative approach to health, wellness & fitness. When I speak on a TED stage, my 20 minutes will include REAL & the idea of it all. With REAL as my foundation I will talk about how passion, compassion, love & the creative force within us should be used to better our health & the health of Mother Nature. My goal for all that I create is to educate & make aware of what modern medicine, the industrialization of food & the information given to us as consumers by health, wellness & fitness propaganda, is TRULY not the best information that we are getting. Let alone the truth at all, & what some of the best solutions are. I want to create an opportunity for those who struggle with weight loss to realize that EVERYTHING they have ever wanted out of life is present & for their own taking. I want to provide to the BEST of my ability the best information, knowledge, products & services for not only all of my clients, but for the entire world. Words can hardly explain what losing 84 pounds has done to not only me, but to the lives of my clients. I have had this feeling of something big waiting to happen & appear in my life. This TED event maybe it, or a part of whatever “it” is. Help me continue to give to, & change the world.

I recommend that anyone take the time to check out the TED website & answer the 3 questions that I answered. It jut made me feel good. Consider me a "forward thinker".

In good health.

Food Labels: "Have You Ever Wondered?"

Have you ever wondered what is REALLY in the box or bag of food that you are buying from your “local” grocery store? Ever wondered what your favorite restaurant has in the back of the kitchen that they are using to prepare your food (& how it’s ALWAYS available & ALWAYS the same?) Ever wondered what was REALLY on the “guiltless menu” on your favorite “neighborhood” restaurant that has a location in almost every major city in the U.S.? Have you ever wondered or EVEN thought about what it means to claim to be “fat free”, “lowers cholesterol”, “cholesterol free”, “sugar free”, “calorie free”, “all natural”, “heart healthy” or any other ridiculous claims t

How POWERFUL are the PEOPLE who provide me with FOOD, really are?

hat multi-corporation giants claim to be? Have you ever stopped & asked the questions, WHY & HOW multi-corporation giants became giants? Here is some simple truth (I want to clarify that it’s not the whole truth) THEY WILL PRINT & SAY WHAT EVER THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH, IF IT MEANS THAT THE CONSUMER (YOU) IS GOING TO BUY IT! They will make the packaging as “pretty” & marketable as possible, they will pay millions of dollars for campaigns that make them billions in return, then they will contribute even more millions to policy makers that allow them to produce “all natural fat free FOOD” products that are made from synthetic chemicals, genetically modified organisms (GMO’s), artificial flavors, preservatives, hydrogenated oils & even propellants! If you have ever wondered… here is a link that you might want to checkout. Even if this link is total B.S... have you ever wondered?

For information on what you can do to stop wondering & KNOW, you can contact NDBC for R.E.A.L education (Real Eating And Living.) Or you can check out any of the links under "Resources & Favorites."
