I aim to bring your body, mind and soul into its natural balance.

My name is Juju and I am passionate about wholesome, plant-based nutrition, fermentation, and healing through lifestyle choices that will last a lifetime. I am training to be a certified naturopath in Germany and I have many years of experience in everything related to food and health.

I am a rationalist but also a devoted idealist. I believe that we can provide feasible solutions for all the crises humanity faces today, if we apply Sanity and Reason, and honesty!
In my “first life” I studied modern history and political sciences because I wanted to understand the world in which we life today and do my best to improve it for the most disadvantaged populations. After finishing my Master in International Conflict Management at the University of Bologna, Italy, I worked in the fields of renewable energy and waste management with a focus on International Cooperation. I believed that this was something were I could make a difference for the communities I served and the environment, all at once.

But I hadn’t included corruption and nepotism in my calculations. Eventually I opted out, and made a sabbatical year in order to reorientate myself. This is when I also started to be more conscious of my own health. I had been vegetarian for many years, when I eventually tried a “vegan challenge” in order to see if it could help healing me. From an experiment grew a passion, and from passion a vocation. I believe in the power of healing, internally, as a society and as humanity. I still want to make the world a better place, and this is how I do it.

During the last years I was able to collaborate with some of the most powerful and dedicated professionals.
Some have a focus on veganism and social change, some concentrate more on health and lifestyle interventions. Whichever it is, I love to collaborate.
