MY STORY

Meet ChiChi & Plant Vibes

Hi, I'm Chichi!

I am a certified integrated health and wellness coach who specializes in a holistic plant based lifestyle. I am passionate about inspiring others to follow this lifestyle through one on one coaching and small group focused coaching. My goal is to help my clients create a new identity that will help them be able to achieve their God given calling in life. Learning about a sustainable healthy lifestyle and regaining my health was a huge incentive for my much desired current health coaching career.

My journey began in my teenage years when I was diagnosed with PolyCystic Ovarian Syndrome - PCOS. What a terrible storm I experienced with floodgates of periods and scarcity of them for many years. The doctors told me that chances of conceiving were very minimal even after undergoing surgery. So what I was left with was a load of hormonal pills and emotional scarring on whether I could ever start a family.

As I entered into my adulthood my weight ballooned and I had a lot of pain in my body. I endured migraine headaches that would make me throw up so I always had a staple pack of painkillers. I suffered arthritis on my fingers and on my back and constantly wondered what I would do about it as I didn't want to go to hospital to be prescribed more drugs or get another fateful diagnosis. On top of this I was also dealing with acid reflux and the doctor I saw told me that I could do nothing about it but only take medicine when the acidity got severe.

So guess what my belief system was - I am stuck in an overweight unhealthy body and would have to bear through the pain using medication for the rest of my life!

The good news is that my turbulent journey with twists and turns led me to be curious on HOW I can nourish my body mentally, emotionally, and physically. In retrospect, this was a blessing in disguise because I was able to restore my health again inside and out. 

I am now a certified Integrative Health and Wellness Coach, I studied at The Institute of Integrative Nutrition. I am also certified in Plant-Based Nutrition, I studied this at eCornell University. I am passionate about helping women and men combat chronic lifestyle diseases through a whole food plant based lifestyle. I live in Nairobi, Kenya and I’m married to my best friend and together we have been blessed with two beautiful girls.
