Hi, my name is JamieLee Joy.

It wasn’t until into my first year of marriage I realized how much I loved being in my kitchen. I found adventure in trying new recipes that were challenging to me and growing me.

When we moved back to our hometown to start a coffee shop, God also revealed to me all my grief + pain from my childhood I hadn't processed or dealt with. Going to my kitchen became my therapy. There were many days where if you walked into those sacred moments in my kitchen you would have thought I was chopping onions, if you know what I mean.

My kitchen became Holy ground.

Over time my passion surfaced for wanting to cook food that was going to not only taste good but also be good for our bodies and help us feel good. One step at a time I started growing some of our own food, taking out things like dairy out of my diet and limiting refined sugars, milling some of my own flour and creating my own recipes.

Being in my kitchen wasn’t a drudgery like I had heard some complain about, it was joy and therapy as I found myself always gravitating towards it. In my spare time you would find my nose in a cook book soaking up and learning all I could about how food effects us.

That lead me to learning all about how everything we put on/in our bodies and in our homes effects us more than I was realizing. I was shocked to find that eating and the products I was using can effect my hormones, my mood, my skin and so much more. It was a whole new world.

I wanted to share with everyone all that I was learning about food + essential oils! How could I not? If I had no idea what I was doing to my body…I was sure there were others who had no idea as well! And that is where this little corner of the internet was born.

Grab a drink, take a seat, you are welcome here.

xo,

JamieLee Joy
