Meet Saphira
Hey guys!
My name is Saphira, I was born and raised in New Zealand and am currently based in Los Angeles. I grew up in a household of alternative eating, I begrudgingly had my flaxseed oil in the morning, plant based milks on my porridge and foods like tofu for dinner. I never fully appreciated nor understood the healthy options my parents were into until the age of 23 when my Modelling career was in full swing.
This is when I slowly started piecing together the connection between what we put in our bodies and how we look, feel and function on a daily basis. This is really what kick started my journey into leading my own healthy and wholesome lifestyle.
​
Coming into my twenties, I got into some pretty bad eating habits (McDonalds on a Sunday morning after a big night out, bacon and sour cream sandwiches or snicker bars after lunch when I needed a pick me up.) the food that I was eating was killing me, literally. I was suffering from gastrointestinal issues and food intolerances that only seemed to be getting worse. I had to find an alternative and I had to do it in a way where I wouldn't feel like I was on a diet or being deprived of the normality of life.
​
​
The idea of maintaining a diet in my twenties just wasn't appealing to me. So I spent a good part of the last decade educating myself on how to live symptom free, through good REAL food, no complicated counting of calories, macros or fat content.
​
What started out as a burning desire to share my knowledge of healthy food alternatives has now lead to sharing my philosophies and knowledge of wellness in a more holistic way. I am a true believer that what we feed our minds with our daily thoughts & what we feed our soul in the form of exercise and movement plays just as an important of a role in keeping ourselves healthy as eating a well rounded diet is.
My mission on this social platform & beyond is to help empower others to make the right decisions when it comes to food, fitness and their lifestyle in order to be their most vibrant self.
