A Little Bit About My Journey As An Entrepreneur
I’m Shoshana Chaim and, when I was pregnant with my second child, my husband developed a rare tumor on his kidney. Not long after, my son showed signs of severe eczema and I experienced mental health issues that left me missing quality time with my kids for way too long.
After deciding that medication and surgery to temporarily solve these problems wasn’t an option, I found plant-based living and completely overhauled our lifestyle one day at a time. After one year, my husband's tumor shrunk and his heart disease went away. I stepped away from a secure job to found Plant Trainers become the co-host of The Plant Trainers Podcast, speaker, and a Family Health and Wellness Coach to working one-on-one with busy parents and families to alleviate the stress in life that’s caused by poor diet, unhealthy lifestyle, and chronic illness. Very quickly I was getting my clients amazing results.
Then I became ill and could not get myself the same results despite following my protocols and seeing every conventional and alternative practitioner I could find and trust. That is when I discovered a breakthrough technology that helps the body heal on a cellular level. For the first time in over a year, I felt awake, happy, and able to work, drive and play with my family again. Now I have extended my tools to be able to create action steps that are customized to each individuals' needs, train others to help the ones they know and love.
I have become an author, mentor, networking leader, and much more along the way. I’m on a mission to help strong individuals on their holistic health journeys by meeting them where they are so they can improve cellular communication and achieve their health and life goals with confidence. I also teach tools to health practitioners and entrepreneurs so we can make the world a healthier and happier place together.

The Long Version
When I met my husband, we were young gym rats thinking we ate healthy enough. But when I found out I was four weeks pregnant with my second child and that my husband, Adam, had a rare tumor on his kidney, everything changed. We were told that the chances of him dying before the age of 40 were quite high. After doctors visit upon doctor svisits, the only solution we were given was to prepare for surgery and genetic testing.
We were told to cross our fingers and I thought I had to prepare for the worst.
How was I going to raise one child, never mind two, on my own?
How could I possibly provide for my children and give them the life they deserve?
Why us?
I feared the worst, but those fears coming true weren’t an option for our family. Surgery wasn’t an option – there had to be a better, less invasive way that wouldn’t also result in the removal of his kidney.
After a ton of research, Adam decided to change his diet. He realized that a plant-based diet allows the body to heal and restore…all based on the food we consume.
Adam was sold immediately, but I, on the other hand, wasn’t ready. I was a new mom, just learning how to cook and meal plan, and now my husband didn’t want to eat meat or cheese and I didn’t understand why. Because even though we just went through the trauma of Adam’s diagnosis, I still thought it would never happen to me. I thought my kids would never be without me. I figured that if I just did everything else right, then I could still hold on to some of those foods that I loved.
But when I experienced mental health issues after Adam’s diagnosis, I realized how much a 100% nutrient-dense plant-based diet allows me to feel my very best. I saw the full connection between the way I ate and the way I felt. A lot of hard work, support from those I love, and my diet gave me the tools I needed to come off medication and feel the best I’d felt in years.
All in all, it took me about six months to jump on board and adopt a fully plant-based diet and lifestyle that worked for me. I was comfortable with my grocery bills (that actually ended up lower!), I knew what and how to supplement the few nutrients I needed, and I knew what kind of meals I should cook for me and my family.
In those 6 months, I realized that if we don’t take care of ourselves first, then we can’t take of anyone else later. That life is fragile and family is irreplaceable. I learned that although we cannot prevent every scary thing from happening to our families, we can prevent 80% of chronic diseases by simply changing our diet and lifestyle.
A plant-based lifestyle helped shrink Adam’s tumor, clear our son’s eczema 80%, and stabilize my PTSD. My clients were coming off insulin, losing up to 60lbs and so much more.
Soon enough stress and anxiety from my husband's situation stacked with burning out from the coaching world and 35 years on medications created my own health situation. Diet and exercise were not enough. I was exhausted and in pain, and I could not concentrate or work. My kids barely had a mother. My fears of not being able to provide for my family financially and emotionally was a reality and getting worse. I ended up feeling alone, embarrassed, and like a failure.
Then one day we were invited to a leadership session about a breakthrough health technology that was cutting edge. It was a turning point in my life. I was captivated by the information and afraid to blink because I didn't want to miss a thing. I went from focusing on being held back from my health and financial challenges to clearly seeing a wonderful future.
Because of this technology, I don’t have those health challenges anymore.
Because of this technology, I’m around for my kids who have two parents who love and caring for them properly.
Because of this technology, my business is thriving because I can not only help others with it but teach others to do the same.
Life has changed for us over and over for the better. I am so excited to share that journey with you and help.
If you feel as if this is your last chance…If you’ve tried it all and are still not thriving in life, then welcome. You don’t have to settle anymore. You can feel great and achieve your life's dreams with confidence.
