The food at this #WealthyMoneyRetreat was really unbelievable.

I believe food is one of the true pleasures of life and I believe humans should feast when they eat.

I have seen how important it is to incorporate pleasure into our daily lives, especially when we are doing deep healing work, so massages and food are key in my retreats.

I love tables that are fully laid out and food that fills the table so every meal was a celebration.

My mom says I get that from my maternal great grandmother, apparently when my dad moved in with my mom and my grandmother and great grandmother, he asked why they always ate like it was a party and my grannies were soo confused about what he meant .

My dad says my maternal great grandmother taught him all about food and cuisine. Cos the woman could cook.

She would make us all sit at the dining table and insisted in it being well decked out.

She passed on when I was 9, but I remember how she and my dad got along like a house on fire.

My maternal great grandmother was an interesting woman - she barely lived in South Africa and was a nomad and lived in different countries. My mom says, she would go traveling for years and come back to SA when she felt like it. She only settled down when we were born.

A black woman in the 1930s - 1980s, living her best life.

My mom says I take after her a lot and that's why no one in my family even tries to stop me from traveling cos they have seen this before.

I believe my great grandmother is the one that gives me my vegan recipes, cos I will be sitting and suddenly a new recipe will pop into my mind. I know she gave me the Jane's Chili recipe.

All this to say food is a deeply ancestral thing for me, so my retreats center around food.

All the food was #vegan
