I have been a nurse for over 25 years. As a bachelor-prepared registered nurse I have worked in various settings but what I enjoyed most was health coaching. I became certified in case management and used my skills in health coaching and motivational interviewing to assist folks to make the changes they wanted in their lives. The things I love doing in my free time include gardening, cooking, lifting weights, and concocting all sort of herbal remedies and natural skin care products. My husband cackles like a witch when he sees me stirring up one of my new recipes implying that he thinks I am one. Seriously though, I love learning how to become stronger and healthier and I am hoping to share some of that knowledge through my brand new blog, The Healthy Tomato. Thanks for joining me..
