Made for Impact

The truth of why I became vegan a couple of years ago

Today my love I am not here to motivate you, to inspire you nor to tell you how to live your life. 

 

Today I am here to share with you my journey and the truth of why I became a vegan and why it is non-negotiable for me in my life and for my family. 

 

It really seems when I look back that life keeps showing us the way when we really pay attention. 

 

The breadcrumbs are so obvious when we can pause and look. 

 

It might have all started when I was a little girl and I was hiding from seeing how my family would slaughter pigs that we raise at home to make sausages and different meals. 

 

It might have been encouraged when I was listening to Ralph from Deep Waters who was sharing his story of becoming vegan because of the energy that the animals have inside of the stress and fear. 

 

Or it might have been because my husband showed me several documentaries of how animals are being treated, killed and what it really takes to come to our homes. 

 

I can’t imagine anyone being able to watch these and keep eating meat. 

 

The last drop was when I got the inspired idea of purifying my body and having my vessel to be deeply connected to my intuition and divine before I hosted my first live event Meant for More in Las Vegas in 2019.
I deeply wanted to serve women and inspire them so I wanted to do something for my body and soul that I have never done. 

 

So in February 2019 on the first year anniversary with back then my boyfriend (today my beloved husband) we chose to become vegans. 

 

And I have never looked back. 

 

Not only it helped me (along with following the advice of Anthony Williams *medical medium* of celery juice and heavy metal detox smoothie) to heal my adrenal fatigue, insomnia, but also the years of inflammation in my knees. 

 

I am still in a healing state of Hashimoto, YET after incorporating more nature, more fresh fruits and veggies and movement along with ocean and other bodies of water I was able to go from my TSH 11 into TSH 3.6. Which normal numbers are under 4 (A thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) test is a common blood test used to evaluate how well the thyroid gland is working. The thyroid gland is located at the lower front of the neck. TSH is produced by the pituitary, a pea-sized gland located at the base of the brain.)

Also, my antibodies that signaled that I am experiencing Hashimoto went from crazy high numbers of 110 into 10 in just a month and a half of being in Tulum, Mexico. 

 

I am not here to preach to you.

I am here to share with you who I am being and how I am leaving my legacy.

How to create quantum leaps in your personal and professional life

Looking back on the past week when I hosted Heal the Healer Tulum retreat for women fills my heart with so much love and gratitude. 

I experienced quantum leaps of our participants who were receiving clarity, confidence, love, support and focus on their next steps in personal and professional life. 

Not only was I able to pour into these beautiful souls so they can heal and rise, I also received immense satisfaction (which for me as a generator in human design is life-giving!) to feel on purpose. 

There is no greater pleasure and satisfaction for me in life than to know that I have sparked an idea, vision, or helped deeply heal a woman who is a leader, visionaire and lightworker, who will run with all she has learned and embodied. 

 

These are the three steps that helped me and my clients to create quantum leaps in their lives:

1. Self-awareness 
This is the key and foundation. Know yourself, get human design reading (by human design coach that resonates with you or schedule Abundantly Aligned human design reading with me bit.ly/abundantlyaligned
When you know who you are and what role you came here to experience your life gets into flow. 

2. Invest in yourself 
You can invest years of money, energy and effort in trying to figure this life alone OR you can invest in people who walk their talk. 
When I am hiring a mentor I always ask myself - would I swap places with them? Are they living a life I want? Are they aligned with my values?

3. Heal deeper 
Our healing has many layers. 
Experiment with different modalities and allow yourself to go to dark deep places that can feel scary. 
Allow yourself to be seen, vulnerable and raw, you never know who you are inspiring. 

Thank you for all your love, support, and reviews on Itunes <3 

The more women can hear this show, the more we can heal and rise. 

I love you, I see you, I receive you!

Why are you so afraid to be yourself

As we passed the holiday season I know many of you can be feeling relieved. 

Being around family can be sometimes overwhelming, especially when we are not fully aligned with who we really are. 

When we are afraid to share what we really think, what we are creating in our lives and what are our true dreams and desires. 

Many of our parents and grandparents didn’t live in alignment and abundance and passed that unknowingly to us. 

So now we are trying to fit, to not be too much, or too little and keep outsourcing our happiness and worthiness. 

Let’s make this year different. 

Let’s make this year about you and your own alignment. 

These two tools helped me to change my life:
1. Knowing your core values:
Write down 20 things you don’t stand for and 20 things you do stand for.
Then highlight 3 things you do stand for and take an inventory of your life.
OUT with the old and settling. This year is all about you. 

2. Get to know yourself deeply:
Human design changed my life. 
I am now actively using it for myself, my biz, my marriage, and all friends, family, clients and anyone I get to collaborate with. 
When you know what is your design, how to be aligned and what is your purpose, your life becomes flow instead of struggle. 

For now, I am following my design and doing what really excites me and Human Design is a big part of it. 

That’s why I am for a limited time (until it excites me) offering Abundantly Aligned Human design reading. 

You will learn the foundations of who you are, what you came here to do, what is your purpose and how to stay aligned on this call. And so much more as my intuition is always guiding me to amazing deep places to support you the best. 

You can either try to do it alone and invest hours and days into trying to understand or gift it to yourself and schedule a session with me. 

Let’s stay aligned and true to who we really are. 

The world needs you for YOU.

How to reverse your autoimmune disease with Donna Mazzola

On this episode, we talked about:

Spreading knowledge to the world
Defining autoimmune disease
Preventing diseases to happen
Finding a way to disconnect
Definition of "real food"
Limiting the number of package food
Finding quality products
Definition of probiotic and prebiotic 
Living a healthier life
Healing through food

 

"We eat convenience foods more than we should be, instead of eating a diversity of foods, like vegetables and fruits"

 

"Whatever it is you're going to be consistent with, that's the movement you should do"

 

"Having a greater quality and quantity of bacteria in your gut it's very important for your health"

 

About Donna:

My name is Donna Mazzola and I was born in raised in Detroit, MI. I have always been an avid health guru and focused so much on preventative care. I live a pretty active lifestyle, and love running and being outdoors. I currently live in Detroit, MI with my husband and 2 girls.

From a young age, I always had a passion for natural healing and preventative care. After obtaining a Doctorate in Pharmacy, this passion became an obsession as my learnings conflicted with my core beliefs. While I maintained what I thought was a healthy lifestyle, my world came to a crashing halt in 2015 when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.

I couldn’t understand why I had developed an autoimmune disease. I started to question, why people develop Autoimmune disorders and why is it that the human body fights itself?

After doing my own research, I discovered there was not a concrete answer to any of her questions, but that nutrition plays a critical role. This is something that was never taught to me in conventional medical training.
For this reason, I embarked on a journey to gain knowledge in the field of Functional Medicine and Human Nutrition. Through this path, Dr.AutoimmuneGirl was born. A blog with a mission to identify the root cause of disease through health and wellness, and create the balance between nutrition and medicine.

Through functional medicine autoimmunegirl focuses on the underlying causes of autoimmune disease and the impact inflammation and gut health have on autoimmune disease management.
As a health and wellness professional autoimmunegirl is on a mission to help you get to the root cause of autoimmune disease through education, empowerment, and support.

 

 

 

How to overcome fears of growth

You can be approaching New Years with expectations hungover or you can look at your journey and embrace the struggle of growth. 

 

Each and every level in our lives will bring in a new expansion and with it also fear. 

 

Fear of failing. 

 

Fear that no one will buy or sign up. 

 

Fear that our loved ones will not get it. 

 

Fear of judgment. 

 

Fear will come and go. 

 

Yet, the choice to look at your life and yourself differently will stay. 

 

Today I am inviting you to look at your life differently. 

 

Today I am inviting you to slow down, to reflect, to ask yourself:

Am I still feeling successful?

Am I still feeling satisfied?

 

Am I still waking up excited and eager?

 

We tend to stay where we are because it is good enough and not really realize that we are the one who is putting a big stop sign to our expansion and dreams. 

 

I am in a stage of a new expansion. 

 

And it is scary and daunting. 

 

Yet deep inside me, I know that inviting the struggle of growth is more fulfilling than accepting  suffering of staying the same. 

What scary things are you doing in 2022?

What are you growing into this year?

How to create stressfree Christmas and receive the biggest gift

Whether you are celebrating Christmas or not you will be feeling the collective energy around you. 

 

And that will give you two options:

You can either be stressing about spending money, not having enough time, worrying about calories and feeling rushed. 

 

OR 

 

You can see Christmas time to be the time to slow down, to re-assess, re-align and to be fully present. 

 

Because my love is the biggest gift you can give to yourself and those around you. 

 

To be fully present, joyful and happy. 

 

Imagine a world that we are really feeling all thankful, present, and joyful. 

 

Even if for one day, heck even for a moment, if we are all in the vibration of appreciation and being present we are shifting the energy of the whole world. 

 

So I invite you today to ask yourself:

How can I be even more present?

How can I celebrate what is?

How can I slow down?

What can I appreciate?

 

You are such a special gift to this world, my love. 

 

Allow the Universe to unpack you with all your wholeness and share yourself with the world. 

 

It needs you. 

 

I love you, I see you, I receive you!
