A near death experience turns Danielle to teaching people how to cook plant-based food
Danielle Arsenault, founder of Pachavega Living Foods Education, is a lover of many things. She is a passionate Raw Food Chef and Plant Based Nutrition Educator, outdoor enthusiast, mountain lover, ukulele player and singer-songwriter, fluent Spanish speaker, cookbook author, humanitarian, environmentalist, vegan and mama. It is her dream to educate the world about the healing power of plant-based whole foods and a healthy lifestyle rooted in compassion for the planet. For almost 10 years, she travelled the world and discovered isolated corners of over 25 countries (and counting). The subsequent 8 years, she lived in a van. Minimalist and free. (She eventually upgraded to an RV).
“the [chronic] diagnosis was doom and gloom like, ‘that’s my fate’… no this is your wakeup call!”
Learn how Danielle’s near-death experience in 2011 changed her relationship with the world and life as she knew it. It gave her the realization that we are truly blessed to be alive. She teaches that we can achieve anything we put our mind to and we have the ability to make our dreams come true. After the accident, Danielle found herself rapidly healing with no lingering pains whatsoever thanks for plant-strong living. She shares how she finds food as a vegan traveller, how food is medicine, that we need integrated medicine to support the planet. Her life goal is to fix the disconnect - not just between food and the body – but our entire food systems entirely.
