Powered by Mom went to the Garden of Life Blogger Summit! #GoLBloggerSummit

Garden of Life has top quality USDA Organic Certified and Non-GMO Verified Products

As usual I'm a bit behind on writing updates on what's been happening with me. While I love to travel it always means there's lots of catching up to do when I return. However, I think I'm doing pretty god on this one as it's only been a couple of weeks since I've returned, not bad for me. I couldn't wait any longer though as I really want to share this amazing news with you all!

When it comes to amazing opportunities, I've had my fair share and have worked with some terrific companies. When I was offered a spot, along with 8 other bloggers, to journey to West Palm Beach Gardens in Florida to participate in the Garden of Life Summit I couldn't believe my good fortune. As an advocate for healthy eating, being a part of a household that is striving to be all organic and firm believers in sustainable foods, being able to work with Garden of Life as well as be one of the select few that was selected for the almost all expense paid summit, it was an opportunity that I just couldn't turn down!

After a 12 hour (yes 12) travel day to get to West Palm Beach Gardens I was greeted with this fabulous bag of fun and healthy swag items. Garden of Life really knows how to do everything right!

As a company whose commitment to health goes beyond beyond just offering effective nutritional products, Garden of Life has taken a strong interest in in building relationships with people in order to help them transform their lives and achieve their goals of extraordinary health. Garden of Life combines nature and science to bring their customers a brand that has extended a hand in helping walk the path to healthy living with the best quality products that are supported by education as well as by innovation.

At Garden of Life, not only do they commit themselves and their work to helping people achieve their health goals with the best products but they're also one of the few who have attained dual certificates proving that their products are USDA Certified Organic AND Non-GMO verified. Not only have they gone above and beyond to bring you the best, unaltered, organic products but Garden of Life also makes it their mission to ensure that their products have only the highest quality ingredients and that each one goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure that the products are top quality. Now, how many companies do you know that actively go through such a process for their customers?

Since discovering Garden of Life I have had the opportunity to discover some of their fabulous products for myself. From their vitamins to their probiotics to their protein powder, I haven't come across a product that I haven't liked or that wasn't beneficial to the health of myself and my family.

Shots, the good kind of fiber. Seriously the best tasting one ever, no grittiness, easy to drink! Perfect. Photo credit to Roshini Cope of Glamazini I think or one of the lovely bloggers, sorry if I got the wrong one 🙂

Being able to venture to West Palm Beach Gardens for the Summit was an amazing experience for me. Not only was I able to meet some wonderful bloggers but I was also able to learn more about Garden of Life as a company. As much as I had been impressed with them prior to my trip, I was twice as impressed by the time it was over. From a tour of the Garden of Life HQ to meeting their Vice President of their Marketing department and much more, I learned so much about Garden of Life and was blown away by the knowledge I gained!

I would love it if I had a room like this with all my favorite Garden of Life products!

I just had to share these pictures too, as they are just a couple of examples of all the big and small things Garden of Life does for it's employees and it's customers!

Stumped? Here's a thinking area in case you're stumped. I LOVE this and so want one in my home as I get stumped all of the time with my writing and more!

How about an in-house gym and of course showers so their employees can keep up with being healthy with convenience. If I lived in the area I think I would seriously see if Garden of Life wanted to hire me.

Now I'd love to write an entire article on the amazing women I got to spend time with at the Garden of Life Summit, I may still do that but for now I just have to mention them at the very least. I was so impressed and honored to be with this group of women, all with varying backgrounds but all with something in common too. Everyone has a passion for being healthy and spreading the word on healthy and more.

Here are all the ladies (minus one Rebecca) in front of the Living Wall (yes all live plants) at Garden of Life. This is before we're heading out for a special training session.

The knowledge that each of these amazing women have had me in awe, I learned something from everyone and they were all so generous with their knowledge, were kind and we all got along. Let's face it when you get a group of people together that's not always the case. It was amazing to spend time with these women and hear about their experiences, their viewpoints and just hanging out. It was an enjoyable time and that says a lot as I'm not always comfortable when I first meet people let alone a group of people I've never met.

Here we are post Lagree method workout. I sweated a lot, this was a full body workout and I was sore for a few days LOL
