My Journey Into Juice Fasting

Hi, I’m Magri-jade – the Juice Fast Doula. My path to becoming a juice fast coach came from a deep desire to heal myself naturally. I didn’t want to rely on SSRIs or antidepressants, so I began searching for alternatives. That search first led me to microdosing, which gave me the clarity and courage to step away from medication. From there, the doors opened to raw foods and juice fasting.

From Food Industry to Fasting

Food has always been central to my life. I trained and worked across the catering industry – from kitchen porter to head chef, from waitress to restaurant manager, and even into recruitment. Although I loved food, something about the industry never sat right with me. When I discovered juicing and raw foods, everything clicked. This was how we were meant to eat. After all, we weren’t born with ovens strapped to our bellies – we were born to eat from the earth and the trees.

A Life-Changing Juice Fast

Juice fasting changed not only my body but my entire life. During my 120-day juice fast inside the Raw Vegan Heroes community with Shane Sterling, I experienced a complete reset. My mind became clearer, my nervous system calmed, and even my ADHD and autism-like symptoms reduced dramatically.

That experience led me to run Shane’s juice fast coaching programme for over three years. I guided thousands of people worldwide and gained invaluable experience as a juice fast coach.

Creating Juice Fast Doula

Eventually, I felt the call to step out on my own – to create a business rooted in my own values, creativity, and vision. That’s how the Juice Fast Doula was born. Now I live in a little cottage in Devon with my two neurospicy children, surrounded by fields and a polytunnel. My life is a blend of research, raw foods, parenting, and holding space for others to heal.
