Today is a personal note. I felt compelled to share a little bit about me, so you know who is behind this newsletter, my blog, my detox programs, health coaching and my healthy recipes.

Some of you know me as the owner/creator of Balance Market (in Managua), some of you know I’m an ex-finance Wall Street gal turned into a borderline hippie yogi, barre lover and healthy food fanatic. Some of you know me as a mother of 2 children who loves them to death, but struggles with all things motherhood (as almost any other mom!). And many of you know me as the health coach, founder of Balance with Mariana, and health & wellness obsessed girl who loves to write.

I’m all those things. I’m also normal, imperfect, but what I can say with total conviction is I am passionate about what I do, and there’s a rhyme & reason to what I do.

I LOVE what I do, and I love sharing everything with you.

But I also realized that many people don’t know much about ME as a person, so today I thought it would be fun to share 10 things I LOVE that I think are part of who I am. So here goes!
