The Raw Beauty Academy is not a certification earning program (we do have one of those) but rather a life-transforming, go at your own pace online course, community, and membership hybrid. The training comes from modules and live, virtual food demonstrations that offer an interactive, hands-on learning experience in the most convenient setting of all: your own kitchen!
The program was created because of the high demand for Raw Food education and inspiration that cater to women of color interested in the health, wellness and beauty benefits of Raw Food. BUT LET'S FACE IT, as important as those things are, the that fact that Raw Food has within it the ability to make so called "ordinary women" activate their extraordinary nature is why going on a "Raw Path" as a "Wellness Warrior" is so vital in 2025 and beyond!
Of course we know that the food would be of little interest if it was not colorful, delicious, filling and soul satisfying!!! Ain't no rabbits around here!
That being said you DO NOT need to be a Raw Vegan, Vegan or Vegetarian to join us. In truth, a limited amount of high vibe brothers with health conditions who are serious about getting support are welcome here as well!
If you're fully Raw, partially Raw or anywhere in between you know what it's like to feel unrelatable and even isolated. How awesome will it be to have a community who not only eats like you but looks like you? It's a journey of mind & body transformation and spiritual elevation based on Deuteronomy 30:19. Yes Sis, welcome home!
Your entire Raw Beauty Academy's syllabus can be found in it's beautiful, simple to navigate course portal. Log on at anytime of day or night to review recipe videos and build up your knowledge base on vital information, time saving and money saving tips and tools. The best way to describe what makes Raw Food so beneficial to the mind and body is my simple mantra..."Life begets life!" ~ Coach Carmen

Be it a snack attack or a party food, having endless crunchy crackers with just as many dips and cheeses to eat them with is a beautiful thing, especially when they're Raw Vegan.

You know we have to have BBQ for our "gospel bird" lovers. We have a secret way of making the Chick-gone tender & juicy but it's the sauce that makes each piece totally awesome!
Granola, energy & protein bars are all the rage. Unforunately though convenient, they're full of refined sugars and lack the "Superfoods" necessary for real nutrition & sustainable energy like the ones we'll make.
You would never know that these muffins are Raw Vegan. They are so moist and muffiny. Perfect for when you crave a little something sweet and a cup of tea without diving off the "Holistic Wellness Bridge"!
