ABOUT ME
Nice to meet you!
I'm Bex (short for Rebekah), a 40-something born-again believer, wife, mom, creative business owner, and certified nutrition coach here to help you build sustainable, healthy practices that seamlessly integrate into your daily life.
Teaching others about the transformative power of food is my passion - because what we eat has a profound impact on our health, either driving inflammation or supporting healing.
MY PHILOSOPHY
We were all created to need food - there's no way around that. But somewhere along the way, we've forgotten what food was actually meant for: Fuel. Nourishment. Healing. We've lost sight of the truth that God provided us with everything we need to thrive from the very beginning. It's always been here. My mission is simple: to bring us back to the basics - where Biblical truth and modern science agree that whole body health begins with intention, awareness, and a return to what God designed.
MY STORY
My health journey began back in 2009. Working an admin job at a holistic wellness clinic, I was in my mid-twenties, eating poorly, drinking often, and not taking care of my body. At work, I'd see patients come in with seemingly incurable ailments, pains, and chronic symptoms, and then after a few months, leave completely different people. Capable, vibrant, healthy people. It absolutely fascinated me, so I kept my ears and eyes open, asked a billion questions, and soaked up all that I could.
When I got pregnant with my first daughter (Olivia) in 2015, I began to put into practice everything I had learned. I became a "crunchy mom", reading ingredients, making real food, buying clean products, and becoming informed on things like vaccines, medications, and environmental toxins.
In 2017, 6 months after the birth of my second daughter (Eve), I started a small business; a clean candle company called Happy Little Flame. At the time I was desperate to find non-toxic candles that were safe to burn around my babies, but I couldn't find anything that was actually clean, safe, and smelled good. So I created it myself! It was through this amazing creative outlet that I was able to grow a large community with whom I could share my enthusiasm, and continue learning about the impact of toxins found in common household products, food, and the air.
Over the last 9 years as my company has grown (and my kids alongside it), so has my knowledge and experience in functional health and healing. By continually educating myself, staying current on new research, expanding my knowledge, and putting everything I learn into practice, I've learned how to heal my body and achieve a higher level of physical and mental health than I ever knew was possible. Now, as a certified health coach, I am so thrilled to be able to bring all of this knowledge and experience together to help others achieve whole body health and healing!
