2016 Me and my Hero! 
My Hero - Dr. Terry Wahls - Check her out. Her TedTalk in 2012 made huge impact on me. She is my hero! I met Terry in Cedar Rapids, IA in August 2016. I gained so  changed knowledge in that seminar and once again she changed my life for the better!  Terry, thank you for your TedTalk. You changed my life! Oh and I shared my hoop with her - she hoops now! Actually if you attend her seminar, you can hoop too! For the third year in a row I am returning with hula hoops to give some hoop love to this community. For me, it is the end of my hoop journey to Iowa. And the beginning of a great seminar weekend. After meeting Terry in 2016 she invited me to return for 2017, 2018, and 2019!
​I had the privilege and honor of introducing my hero this year at the Wahls Seminar and Retreat. I am still pinching myself wondering how that happened! (I am still hoping I did a good job!)
My YouTube Channel - Restorative Hooping with Crazy Amy - Check it out! My site has two things on it. Information about hooping, tips and tricks and stuff like that. And I also host the interviews I do called, Stories from the Hoop Circle there. These stories are about food, health and real people. ​
Dr. Fred Harvey - Functional Medicine doctor in Sarasota, FL.  He is frank and to the point. I like that. He told me he has a hoop, I like that too. 
V Capaldi is moving on to new challenges and sharing the good news that food matter, healing happens and she cares about her community, where ever she is!
​Her brand Paleo Boss Lady is going by the wayside and her new branding is moving in. More information to come! I previously wrote about my friend V. 
​Previously - Paleo Boss Lady - V ​- V is an inspiration to me! What she is doing now is amazing! I love that she is Raising the Roof and Crushing it every day! Go V! Follow V as she travels throughout the US - sharing her story about conquering MS and kicking it to the curb! I had the pleasure of meeting V, though Dr. Terry Wahls.  Yep, I shared hooping with her too. Last time she emailed me she told me she is hooping 5 days a week. AWESOME-HOOP-SAUCE! 
Abel James - Amazing guy who has great guests on his podcast. He inspires me to be more everyday. Check him out on iTunes - Fatburningman show! Great, free information!  I got his book, The Wild Diet after I started listening to him on iTunes. I love his book. I don't know if he hoops but I hope to meet him someday! 
Dr. David Perlmutter - His book, Grain Brain convinced me no Gluten is a No Brainer. I gave him a hoop, not sure if he is using it!
Mary the Paleo Chef - Quote, "Eat like you give a damn about yourself!" I love her!​ She has a great story too. 
Heather is the owner of PLC and the person that got me moving in all kinds of new hooping ways. She is my Hoop Mama - mentor and friend. If you are in the Sarasota area, you can check out her classes on her website.
