Leadership has been a big question for me lately. I have a home business that has been built up into a team of people that I am to lead. So what does leadership look like for me? I wonder these things because my very personality is fun loving and laid back but I know God is calling me to be more than I have been before. A new favorite verse for me is Isaiah 42:16 “I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, and not forsake them.” This verse came up in a bible study I was doing and I just loved it! I then received a daily devotional book from a friend on leadership and that was the opening verse, I didn’t even realize that this was a verse to be applied to a leader. So cool!

I love how God works. Nearly a year ago my husband joined Uri International because he was interested in the products but he was also looking for a business to work from home. I was not interested!! I was actually irritated! I saw it as a whole lot more work for me to do in helping him in this home business adventure. But God had a plan for me in Uri International.

Yes you read that right, I was on a Uri International training call when my kids ran upstairs to tell me the dog wet on the floor. This is not a normal occurrence for him, he is a very good dog, and a very BIG dog so you can just imagine the mess! I will say that I was extremely thankful that my end of the call was already muted and that I had invested in a wireless headset and had both hands free to clean! Why am I telling you this?!? Did you know that this is one of the benefits of working from home? Not having my dog pee on the floor of course, but to be able to conduct business related tasks while still doing my ordinary living kind of things. I cannot express to you how cool it is to be sharing the Uri International business opportunity while sitting on my bedroom floor next to my 4 year old son who is playing with his hot wheels.

The Candida Diet has been raising some questions with some of you. There are a lot of foods that I can’t eat that are a part of SAD (Standard American Diet – even its’ abbreviation is very telling), but that doesn’t mean I am doomed to starve! I would like to give you a brief overview of what Candida is, some diet requirements, and a really disgusting test you can try at home to see if you may have a Candida overgrowth problem.
Candida is yeast, we all have it, and it’s on our skin in our mouth and in our intestines. Sadly it can become a very real problem when yeast and good bacteria in the intestine get out of balance. There are a lot of contributing factors involved with this imbalance. Antibiotic use is a big one, especially long term use like chronic sinus infections or acne medicine, but we also get it from meat and milk products. Some other contributors are birth-control pills, hormonal changes, medications, and even drinking chlorinated water, all can cause partial or total destruction of your friendly bacteria in the lower gut, but do not harm the Candida. If you add to that a diet rich in food that Candida feeds upon (sugar, carbs, refined food, and yeast) the Candida grows hog wild!
What’s the solution? Starve out the Candida while taking natural remedies that aggressively attacks it. The best diet starts with organic whole food. That means we need to go back to Little House on the Prairie days! Wikipedia says this of whole food: are those that are unprocessed and unrefined, or processed and refined as little as possible before being consumed. They typically do not contain added sugar, salt, fat, or chemicals. Organic food: are produced according to a certain production standards, it means they were grown without the use of conventional pesticides, artificial fertilizers, human waste, or sewage sludge, and that they were processed without ionizing radiation or food additives. For animals, it means they were reared without the routine use of antibiotics and without the use of growth hormones. In most countries, organic produce must not be genetically modified. O.K. how many of us now want to start eating organic whole food? Grown without human waste, sewage sludge, radiation, and genetically modified?! Wha? Did you even know you were consuming food that had all that? But that is a whole other article.
