Tamu Mosley is a mother of 3, a teacher, a kitchen alchemist, a yogi of 20+ years and founder of Wholistic Shine (established in 2014) and Uchū Botanical (established in 2018). She was introduced to a vegan lifestyle in 1995 and quickly became passionate about a wholistic approach to this new way of eating and living. It not only became about what she put in her body by way of healthy non-meat and non-dairy foods but also became about what she put on her body, in her environment, what she allowed in her mind… She realized that this was a lifestyle, not just what she ate, and wanted to live it as wholistically as possible. We talk about all things wellness, resilience and healing the mind, body and spirit.  Website: www.wholisticshine.com Instagram Handle:  wholistic_shine Connect with The Green Fork Collective Podcast on Instagram:  @thegreenforkcollective
