Instead of focusing on how to find happiness through quick fixes, Suzanne decided to dedicated her time to truly nurturing her wellbeing and treating her mind, body and soul with love and respect it deserves - this started with removing alcohol from her life, adopting a plant-based whole foods diet and regularly exercising. 

With this new way of living, Suzanne experienced a renewed sense of energy, confidence and self-worth.
