Conveying Awareness Update on New Content

Visit ConveyingAwareness.com for tips, tools, resources, and recipes! 

Greetings all,

In 2009, I launched this blog and shared content for a solid 7 years on nutrition awareness, recipes, and other healthy lifestyle options. 

After earning my certification in health coaching from the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute, in 2012, I created a WordPress website. I thought I would write blog posts there and move everything over. In the five years I was on WordPress, I used it infrequently because of my... let's say it, inability to code. I spent countless hours on it for it to look mediocre. I kept writing content on Blogger. Then in 2016, I stopped writing due to wanting everything on one platform and one that I wanted and knew that I would actively use. 

After the break, I hired a creative in 2018 to help me launch a website.

In early 2019, I launched my new improved website! There you'll find all of my coaching services. 

Update: In September 2022, I earned my Master Certified Health Coaching certification. The following July, I learned that I passed the Board on my first attempt - I am a Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC).

What will belly dancing do for you? "I have seen women's confidence blossom after having taken belly dancing classes, as well as enjoying the 'sisterhood' that occurs after dancing together each week."

The Spirit of Adventure {Guest Post}

Do you ever look with longing at someone else’s life and think, “I wish I could do that too.”  I do. I often wonder how it would be to live a life of adventure, free of fear and full of courage. But when I pause to contemplate the definition of adventure and what it means to be courageous, I have to acknowledge the fact that I do approach my life with courage and fill it with adventure. And so can you. It’s all in how you look at things. 

"Sometimes adventure comes in simply changing your perspective. [Tweet This]

Pancakes with added plant power (DF)

One of my family's favorite weekend breakfast foods is pancakes. Well, I do like french toast too, and I have a recipe using the Complete here that you may be interested. But, my every day breakfast is one of two things: 1) a Complete smoothie with added sources of plant protein or 2) pastured local eggs over medium with veggies on the side. 

I hope you enjoy this pancake recipe. Without buttermilk, they're not fluffy but they're still very good and even better with real maple syrup (mmm grade B is my favorite but hard to come by locally so I buy online).

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup of flour 
2 tbsp sugar (we like coconut sugar)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
pinch of sea salt
1 cup of almond milk + *2 tsp
1 egg
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup of vanilla Complete plant powder (or your choice)
1/2 to 1 cup of blueberries (or your berry preference); partially thaw if frozen
1-2 tbsp oil
