Who am I? I am a master of love, a gardner, a raw food enthusiast and chef, a writer, a teacher, a student, a life coach, a mother, a friend, a lover, a dreamer, a GODDESS!!

What is my purpose? to answer the call for love where ever I may hear it!

My name is Megan Darger. I am 24 years young and I have been raw for 6 years. I live in Ojai, Ca with my amazing husband Christopher Stubbs who I have been with for 4 years and I love with all my heart. I also have two beautiful step-daughters Samantha

and Cambria…which are so fun and I adore them. Things I like to do is hike, explore new and places, singing, dancing, playing the guitar, archery, yoga, and swim in fresh water lakes and rivers. I love to PLAY! The things I am most passionate about are: nature, raw living foods, beauty, exercise, gardening, friends, family, music, traveling, learning, and love…love….LOVE!! I am also a certified raw food chef through 105 degrees institute and a life/relationship coach through the Hendricks Institute. Although I am a life/relationship coach, I am more passionate about raw living food and health coaching.

How I went raw…..

I went raw the summer of 2004 when I was 18 years old. I grew up in a health conscious home where there was hardly anything ever processed, mostly plant based, a salad at  every dinner,  daily vitamins, etc. My mom owned 2 health food stores in Salt Lake Valley and always chose holistic ways of healing our bodies. Growing up I was the picky child. I didn’t like meat especially if it had bones and we only bought meat with bones. I did not like most dairy…i hated milk, eggs, cottage cheese, sour cream, etc. And I hated cooked vegetables..I would rather eat them raw. I started working at the health food store when I was about 13 doing odd jobs like cleaning and worked there on and off for about 10 years. When I turned 18 I had a friend that told me about raw food and it really interested me. She told me a book to read called “The Sunfood Diet Success System” by David Wolfe and I went and bought the book immediately. About a week later I went on a trip to Chicago for a week and on the trip to and back I read the entire book. As I read the book I kept thinking “I am almost already raw…this is sooo me!” Once I was done with the book, I tuned in to see if this was right for me and got a full body YES!! It was July 27th and I decided that I would go 100% raw on August 1st. I had just moved out on my own into an apartment and on August 1st I went 100 % raw! That was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life.  I have been raw ever since. There are times where I have fallen off 100% and done 80 to 90% but I always go back to 100% because of the way I feel. I have way more energy and clarity. It is amazing how I feel even from 90 to 100% raw. People often ask me how I just went 100% raw? For me I think it was very easy for me to transition due to my older eating habits and the things I already didn’t like and didn’t agree with my body. I think it was also easier due to me going out into the world on my own with my own apartment, buying my own food, and not having any negative/ bad influences around. Also, I stocked my kitchen with the proper tools, ingredients, and did a lot of research.

Why I love being raw….

When I am 100% raw I feel like I have an abundance of energy and great clarity!. I am more in tune with my body and more in touch with my perceptive and intuitive abilities. I really feel like it expands my relationship and appreciation for my “mother” earth. It also helps me to live in harmony with the earth. It supports my whole being and my spiritual practices. I feel more at peace and connected to everything: nature, people, animals, etc. I stay at my ideal weight. I have healthy glowing hair, skin, and nails. It heightens my sensitivity of my taste buds and my pleasure in food. It allows me to use my creativity and self expression through the art of food preparation, and it includes raw chocolate! One of the greatest things is it puts me in touch with a new power….for me its a way of life and a way for a better world, a life that brings with it happiness, peace, longevity, and prosperity. And most of all it’s one of the biggest ways that I show love for myself and for others.

I feel we can only have the most vibrant life if all things emotionally, spiritually, physically, and mentally are all balanced. I think eating raw, living food is just one of the ways.
