The Power Of Juice Fasting | 025

It Has to Be Me

Karen Kipp, health coach, juicing expert, and co-creator of The Decadent Detox®, gives us the lowdown on the safest and most effective way to achieve better health through juicing and juice fasting.

She takes us inside how growing up in a meat-and-potatoes family and losing her mother to cancer at 17 made her completely committed to health. She recalls how her dad gave her a Champion juicer he’d picked up (for five dollars) at a garage sale, and got her started with juicing. In the Midwest of thirty years ago, she learned by herself through experimentation, and then taught others.

Life as a working single mom anchored her to a scrappy, “do what you can” approach to everything. This down-to-earth, flexible attitude, combined with her comprehensive knowledge, attracted a loyal following for her in-person wellness retreats.

We recount how we met in Kansas City and bonded over our mutual concern about the popularity of dangerous cleanses. To offer a safer alternative and show people how to juice fast responsibly, we created the 14-Day Cleanse using Karen’s local-community experience as a starting point.

Through our online programs, we’ve helped over 30,000 participants around the world and witnessed countless health transformations.

If you want to lose weight, sleep better, have more energy, and reduce inflammation with personal coaching and a supportive community, join us live for the next decadent detox.
