Story
I went from thinking I was healthy… to a shock diagnosis of breast cancer in 2012. I turned this experience into a gift, a gift that helped me to be more conscious about my daily choices in life. This gift has helped me to stay motivated, to lead a new health journey each day.
I learned very quickly the power of food and mindset, and with the right balance miracles happen.
Hi! I’m Tania,
A mum, a passionate health motivator and a wife, who lives for learning about health. I am on the path to finding longevity, learning how to live a long life, growing older feeling and looking younger, and in the search for ULTIMATE HEALTH. I have been on my quest since 2012 and have learned a ton especially from my training at the College of Naturopathic Medicine, an intensive 3-year course which I started in 2018. I am now ready to share all that I have learnt with you, if you are interested in this too.
Before 2012 I thought, I truly thought, I was healthy. Even though I had many signs and recurring symptoms, I was ignoring them. Symptoms like hormones imbalances, mood swings, fatigue, stress from being part of a family business, feeling of being constantly overwhelmed.
I had 2 amazing boys, they ran me ragged, at the time. I was also known as ‘Frantic Tan” as I always did too much. When they were 5 & 6 we started our journey living in Asia, new homes, a new career path/job, plus trying to be a supportive wife as my husband’s career was taking off. I was working in a stressful family business from 1993 until 2007, in production and marketing of beautiful stainless steel kitchen wares, and proud to say that the colour on stainless steel – we invented that. It came from our factory in India first! Now you see it everywhere.
After that we started to travel the world, making a new home in several countries for the next 10 years of our lives.
Looking back I was always super keen on nutrition and what was healthy. I owned a juicer, it was used daily until it wore out and then it got relegated to the cupboard. I bought 5 copies of the Gillian McKeith’s book “You Are What You Eat” and gave 4 of them away to family and friends as I connected so much with this way of life. I followed it partially but not knowing then, I needed more training and help to stay on board with this new way of eating. So I drifted back to the usual western diet and lifestyle.
But then I was diagnosed with the dreaded C. Cancer. Breast Cancer to be precise. I was in a fast lane of aggressive treatment. At this low time, I started to ask myself a question, that kept popping up in my now very conscious mind…..
“Why Did I Wait to Get Sick?”
I’m pretty sure that most of us don’t think about how we will go from this world or even what age that will be? Can we actually in the present moment admit to ourselves that our health is off? Or our weight is too high? Or the recurring signs that our body is giving us that something is not right? Do we just keep ignoring those? Do we think of the repercussions that our current lifestyle choices have on our future? How we will feel when we get older. Do we brush this all under the carpet as there are too many other things in life to stress about? Do we not think about these things because we think.. that won’t happen to me? I think if I am honest that is how I was thinking.
When I found out my body was not in great health. I went through what is called the 5 stages of loss –
First was DENIAL – this was not happening to me, there must be a mistake.
Then came the ANGER – but I am healthy, I am too young, I am not ready for this yet.
Then the BARGAINING – I will do anything to save my life, to save my breast, to beat this.
And finally, the DEPRESSION and this took longer to come out of – coming to terms with losing a part of me that is irreversible, seeing my mother in law dying of lung cancer at the same time. Not knowing, feeling scared, alone, and powerless I thought over my disease.
Finally came ACCEPTANCE – Ok I get it, what do I need to do to stay healthy from now on? This single sentence “why did I wait to get sick?” was and still is the motivating sentence that keeps me on the healthy path every single day.
Raise your hand if you have ever had a relative or loved one die of a disease, an illness, or something other than natural causes. Or family that has a disease or illness that they are battling?
Yes me too. My mum (Jackie), had Cushing Syndrome, Kidney Disease brought on by the Diabetes that was not being controlled, lumpectomy, parathyroid issues and the list goes on (wow hail to my mum for being so resilient – You can read her story here – JACKIE’S STORY. Mum would not be here today if she had not gone down this route. The reboot & health changes saved her life and we used the same principles that I was applying to myself after my treatment. My dad has diabetes, My grandad had lung cancer, My nan had Alzheimers, my aunty has Alzheimers, my other had Aunty a brain haemorrhage, my mother’s partner had lung cancer. My mother in law had lung cancer (at the same time I was being treated for breast cancer) – she was a smoker, my father in law – diabetes-related pneumonia and these are just my immediate family. What about yours? Ever strung this together and been alarmed?
That’s a lot of sicknesses and disease and illness in our lives. It occurred to me that I do not want that to happen to me. “So what do I need to do?” I asked myself and that is when I started my long journey into the world of health, healing, wellbeing and the search for longevity. I was shocked by the findings. What we think is healthy is far from it. What is actually healthy but are not told, so we do not know could save us. Understanding the myths that people think are facts – this one is hugely damaging to us. Or the belief that everything in moderation is alright? So I began my quest for longevity and to live a disease free life. And the starting point for me back in 2012 was juicing. No matter where I looked, juicing was the starting point. Juicing nowadays is known as a Reboot, a Cleanse, a Detox, Intermittent Fasting, 5 / 2, Water Fasting and so on. No matter which disease you look at, or even for weight loss. We ALL have to start by wiping the slate clean. Getting the toxins out of the body and I explain this in great detail in my Find Your ULTIMATE HEALTH MASTERCLASS, which you can sign up for by clicking this LINK.
In order for the body to feel healthy and lose weight we first must take the toxins out, clean out the inside so that our outside can shine and glow. Literally, these are words the people will tell you when you do my Ultimate Health Reboot, that you are glowing, that your eyes sparkle, that you look so healthy.
So at the end of this nightmare journey, there is a silver lining. I call it a gift from a life-changing episode in life, the wake-up call….I am spreading the love by giving back and sharing all my findings, learning and now being a student at the College of Naturopathic Medicine. Covering Anatomical, Physiological and Pathological learnings and long with nutrition and alternative support remedies, naturopathic medicine. The way that Naturopathic Medicine and nutrition looks at the body is as a WHOLE, the entire workings of the body and systems working together and looking for the root cause of ailments, symptoms, syndromes, infections and disease.
Here is me with my Family.
Husband Gregor, eldest son Maximilian, not far behind in age Benjamin and my dear Mum Jackie (her dutch name is Berendje, but I challenge you to pronounce that!)
