A few years ago I had the pleasure of working with Elaine Murphy on one of my top personal goals, healthy eating. Not only did Elaine help me develop a weekly menu plan and grocery list, she worked with me at my pace... teaching me how to shop, cook and meal plan, and eat what's right for my body.

Shannon Watkins is the co-owner of Blendz in downtown Los Gatos where she can be found greeting everyone with a smile. Shannon is one of those women who oozes empowerment AND spirituality. Standing next to her, I can FEEL an energetic boost almost as good as the fresh salads and fruit smoothies available for purchase.

Meet Dr. Renee Young, A warm and compassionate Naturopathic physician, who is on a mission to empower women to ultimate health.

Personal experience with the limitations of traditional medicine in treating her own bouts with illness is what drew Dr. Young to her field. The detective work done by a naturopathic physician – asking lots of questions beyond the typical ones about symptoms and health history – was what finally got to the root cause of her illness and restored her to good health. Now she continues this approach with her patients as she provides sensitive, individualized diagnosis and treatment to help them achieve wellness. She is passionate about Naturopathic Medicine because it gives her so many treatment options to help her patients.
