Testimonials
My Happy Clients!
Maria has created a group that is bursting with encouragement, knowledge, support, and NO judgement. It’s such a welcoming place to dip your toe in as a novice in the plant-based world or dive in the dep end as a seasoned herbivore
Alex D., New Jersey
Maria is encouraging to those of us who are dabbling in plant-based living but does not judge us because we haven’t arrived yet! I’ve always heard if you hang around the barbershop long enough, you’ll get a hair cut! I’m still hanging out!
Peggy D., Utah
Maria is a plant-based genius. I highly recommend following her and signing up for any and all of her classes. Many people do not think they can live plant-based. She will prove to you that you can and will support you every step along the way.
