You are important to me and I can help you feel better!
When I was first diagnosed with severe degenerative osteoarthritis of the spine and could barely walk or sleep or live, I thought that I was all alone even though there were people all around me. Inflammation was causing so many difficult symptoms, but inflammatory pain in particular is the great isolator in all it’s forms. It is common to live secluded with your pain and that can push you into depression and isolation. I spent a lot of time crying myself to sleep, thinking my life was over, and that I might never recover.
I Discovered There is Hope if You Have Chronic Pain
Once I discovered how to take care of myself through an anti-inflammatory lifestyle and reduce my chronic pain by 80%, I also saw many of my other health problems improve or disappear. When I got rid of the high blood pressure medications and reduced my allergies and asthma down to almost zero with no heavy medications or prescriptions involved, I realized that I wanted to share my discoveries and help others.
I feel like I was gifted with this horrible inflammatory lemon and have been given a mission in life to change it into the grandest most delicious anti-inflammatory bad-ass lemonade cocktail ever. This mission is now my life’s work — to help you feel better through anti-inflammatory living.

ABOUT Shawna Coronado in Business —
One day I decided to change my life and up n’ left my fancy-pants office job in sales and marketing to find health and happiness. Since then I have created a media career primarily as an author and photographer (here are my books – LINK), but I also work as a business consultant, on-camera spokesperson, columnist, keynote speaker, and podcast/radio show host. Every day is a new adventure for me.
I spend my days learning about sustainable ideas that support an anti-inflammatory lifestyle. In 2015 I was diagnosed with severe degenerative osteoarthritis of the spine – an incurable condition which presents chronic inflammatory pain that can be quite debilitating. My diagnosis has led me on a life-changing mission to educate audiences about beneficial diet, food, and health practices. My dream is that this will enable more people to be active who suffer from similar conditions. I want to help people.
