If you could be any animal in the world what would you be?

A kookaburra… Laughing all day whilst flying. That’s a pretty sweet deal and you would have some killer abs.

What can't you live without?

Music… unless oxygen, water and food are a choice…

What is your favourite Raw Blend product?

The Vitamix and 8 in 1 spirooli. They go hand in hand! Make a batch of some pesto sauce in your Vitamix and then pour over some freshly spiralized cucumber noodles! Winning combination!

How do you keep your mind and body healthy?

I work out as much as I can and try to do some form or physical activity every day! I love Boxing and weights. I usually just zone out and listen to music. To keep my mind happy I write songs, poems, lyrics, blog entries and have only just started a private journal for anything that comes to my mind.
