The Healthy Maven

Welcome to The Healthy Maven! My name is Davida and I am a foodie, fitness enthusiast and baking-obsessed health and wellness blogger.I started this blog in February of 2013 with the hopes of sharing nutritious recipes, workouts and healthy living tips with my friends and family but before I knew it, this little space of mine had become so much more. Less than a year after starting, I quit my full-time job in psychiatric research to run The Healthy Maven full-time. It was the greatest decision I have ever made.I never thought that one day I would be fortunate enough to call myself an entrepreneur, a self-published author or even my own boss. To say that The Healthy Maven has been a life-changing endeavour for me would be an understatement.My app is not about counting calories, workout schedules or how to lose weight. It’s about eating real and unprocessed food, getting creative in the kitchen and leading an active and balanced lifestyle. We could all use a little more kale AND wine in our lives.When I’m not in my kitchen or taking pictures of food, you can find me exploring Toronto, traveling, talking incessantly about my wonderful roommate/boyfriend “C” or dancing to Beyonce.
