"May you have love that never ends." I have it and I am not letting it go

“Wherever you go and whatever you do, may the luck of the Irish be there with you”
Some believe the Irish are lucky and always have good fortune, especially when unfortunate circumstances happen. One of the seven blessings of the Irish is, “May you have a love that never ends.” We all have loved and fallen out of love at one time or another. What does it feel like to fall out of love with yourself? It is not a very good feeling, and it can happen at such a pace that you do not realize it until you are stuck in life.
Life happens
Life, career, and family took all of your time. You didn’t feel unhappy. You were just busy. Then fast forward 18 -20 years later, and you find yourself out of shape, overweight, no energy and going through the motions

Mirror
Throughout the years, you loved and cared for everyone else. Now you look in the mirror, don’t like what you see, and may not even know who you are anymore. What is the mirror saying to you? Do you love the person that is staring back at you?

My story
I love to travel, and love is an understatement. When I started nursing school in 2016, I knew I wanted to travel as a nurse. In 2021, I was at my 2-year mark of being a nurse and had my sights on my first travel assignment. I also had our last of three children graduating from high school. I went through a tough time during that year after the last child graduated and I felt lost. I didn't love who I saw. That was scary. So I took medication to lose weight and lost 30 pounds within a few months.

2022, I thought it would be my year of transformation. Instead, it became a year of transformation failure. I hired a champion female bodybuilder, and I was unprepared for this journey. I was going to the gym, eating healthier, and learning about macros. The scales kept going up. I switched coaches, and by this time, I was mentally spiraling because the scales controlled me. I was not prepared mentally. My life was good, my assignments were excellent, and my home life was beautiful. I was trying to love myself, but I was stuck. I stopped that way of dieting and started another one. This one wanted me to eat only 800 calories daily, and the food was horrible. I could not stick to it. I said screw it and started eating unhealthy processed frozen meals, and after a month, I was in a full-blown Hashimoto flare-up.

Awakening
So I realized I needed to start eating somewhat healthy again and preparing my food. During this time, I had been at my new assignment for a few months in Oregon. This is where the transformation started happening. I found my fountain of youth. I started going to the coast, spending time in the redwoods, fishing, hiking, and loving myself. Eating healthier and spending time traveling all over the west coast.
The luck of the Irish
I was friends on Facebook with someone I didn’t really know but knew she was in the healthcare field and lived in the same town I did. We are all friends in healthcare, right? I followed her, saw significant changes, and wanted to be a part of it. I ordered this so-called magic drink. I tried it, and I wasn’t wild about the taste. I drank all eight packets, and I craved it. I drank it at work, and I drank it when I was off. After I put my order in, I could hardly wait to get it. I drank it casually, you might say. At the time I did not know all the benefits of the drink.
Realization
Fast forward, I took my daughter to Oregon on a fishing trip. I took the canister of the magic drink with me and did not drink it one time. On the way back, I was feeling low on energy. I thought I had not felt like this in a long time. I ran across a post of my friend on Facebook, and It hit me like a ton of bricks. Thirty-five thousand feet in the air, I joined the team of the magic drink. Once again, one of my travels led me to a moment of clarity. It was clear as day. The energy I had felt the past few months, the mental clarity I had, especially at work, my thick hair was thicker, and my sugar cravings had dropped drastically were all because of the magic drink.
I realized I needed this. I think other people need this. Being an emergency room travel nurse, I see people daily who do not love themselves. From problems of being overweight or just run down feeling. I feel Taka has changed my life; if you allow me to help you, it may change yours as well.
I am loving myself more, and I am not letting her go! I feel like I have found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I would love to try and help you find yours.
P.S. I would be honored if you would allow me to help you on your journey.
