Thriving Professionally and Personally
Thank you for everything! I’ve not only been able to handle the stress of motherhood and work, but I’ve been thriving at both while setting boundaries, making ample time for myself, and mentoring/supporting other women along the way.

Life Coach
San Jose, CA
Marcela is not just a Spiritual Nutrition Counselor; she is a true healer. Her wisdom and culinary art have saved me more than once. Before the fast, I felt old and exhausted. Afterward, I felt rejuvenated, like I had aged backward ten years. Marcela taught me to make food preparation simple, fast, and joyful. Today, I sing and dance in the kitchen, truly enjoying a plant-based diet.

Award winning Author, Chief Editor, Mother of Two, Horse Whisperer
All the love you put into your words stays in my mind. I have removed McDonald's and all kinds of junk food from my diet. When I feel temptation calling my name, I can hear your words saving me.
Dr. Jorge Giuliboni

My holistic therapy with Marcela completely changed my life. Her approach helped me quit substance abuse cold turkey and guided me through the healing process. Marcela's daily support and vegan diet plan detoxified my body and brought me back to life.
