Who Am I?
I am not exactly sure where to start this story. Everyone has a story and a journey that “started from a young age,” but to be honest, I am not exactly sure where mine starts.
What I do know is that I had been asking questions about health and my body my whole life. I was a very curious child, self-aware to a fault. I was Always trying to find ways to change things about myself, my mind, my body, my routine, etc. The idea was to continue to add and eliminate products, behaviors, and thought patterns, until I felt ‘whole and healthy.’
With that thought in mind, I became very passionate to try to figure out what the word ‘health’ truly meant and what it meant for ME. It led to a lot of research, a lot of experimenting, and a lot of money spent on different supplements. My morning routine consisted of multiple pills and 3-5 different shots/ liquids to consume. The kicker? I didn’t feel good.
After a couple years of supplementation, ‘healthy’ eating, and working out most days of the week, I was tired; my digestive system was tired, my mind was exhausted from all of the internal debates and fights with myself to continue on what I thought was the path to absolute health. I was bloated all of the time. And most importantly, I was not at peace.
Through the years of trial and error, I was brought to the conclusion that health, and what it means to be healthy, is more subjective than we think.
In 2021, I moved to Jupiter, Florida and became a personal trainer at a beautiful gym. There was a member there that sold ginger juice to lots of people and employees. I hopped right on that train and started to take it every morning.
This is when my body started to thank me.
I stopped everything I had been taking. No more pills, no more liquids, just ginger. I wanted to see just how powerful something so natural could be.
It took a couple of months, but my body was starting to heal. My nervous system was more at ease. I felt at peace with the simplicity of my routine.
After about a year, I realized I had started to simplify every aspect of my life that I could. I realized I had found the answer I had been looking for for a long time.
To simplify.
Purge & Co. is a company born from the idea of simplicity. Born from the idea that everything you need comes from God’s creation.
