Realistic
Changes designed for everyday life—not short-lived perfection.
Founder • Guide • Encourager
Wellness guidance grounded in personal experience, practical education and a belief that lasting change must fit real life.
Her journey
Janet began her own holistic health journey in 1999. After the birth of her child, she lost approximately 50 pounds of pregnancy weight in 10 months and reports keeping it off. This is her personal experience, not a prediction of anyone else’s results.
Janet also carried a long list of allergies for years, along with the regular allergy shots that came with them, and she no longer wanted to live that way. Since changing how she eats and lives, she reports that her allergies no longer bother her. That is her own experience — she does not advise anyone to change or stop a medical treatment, and she does not promise that dietary changes will do the same for anyone else.
She graduated from the Academy of Natural Healing in 2007, where she studied nutrition and lifestyle transformation.
In 2009, Janet owned and operated a smoothie club where she organized weight-loss challenges and helped clients work toward healthier lifestyles. She also worked in a doctor's office assisting patients with nutritional choices.
In 2011, she wrote and published New Carolina Healthy Alternative Cookbook.
Her philosophy is not centered on temporary diets. It is about helping people make realistic lifestyle changes they can maintain.
