We were lucky to catch up with Angie Carr recently and have shared our conversation below.
Angie, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Owning a business isn’t always glamorous and so most business owners we’ve connected with have shared that on tough days they sometimes wonder what it would have been like to have just had a regular job instead of all the responsibility of running a business. Have you ever felt that way?
I am very happy that I am a business owner. When you find your soul purpose , it brings great pleasure. I was a flight attendant for 10 years then went to school and was a nurse for 20 years. Because of my own story of healing naturally, that led me to my business today. My business is called Foodgoddess50.com. I represent several wellness businesses on my site that has helped me and thousands of others to become healthier. I am a health coach and I teach people on how to heal. God has led me on this purpose and I love what I do. I make my own hours, I travel and I educate what I have learned. I go live daily on social media and have helped lots of people. I do not miss past jobs because I am doing what I truly love to do. I love to inspire, motivate and encourage others to do the same. Do what makes you happy, instead of just doing a job just for money.
I put in a lot of hours because I love researching and helping others. See my full story at foodgoddess50.com. I use to be on medication, not very active and slaving away as a nurse. Today, I am healthier, off all my medicines (20), running, lifting weights, happy, feeling and looking better then I use to. I feel like I have a brand new life by healing myself from several auto immune diseases. I am very thankful on far I have come.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I lived my life with sickness. It started in my 20s with my first auto immune disease then by my late 40s got my fifth auto immune disease. I struggled with weight gain, brain fog, pain, inflammation, gut issues, constant infections, depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, diverticulitis, multiple surgeries and more. Six years ago I made a change because I was dying. I was taking Methotrexate for Rheumatoid Arthritis and it was killing my liver. My doctor wanted to change medications and I said no, I am done. God told me do not take anymore medicine, now you will do this my way. I went to Functional Medicine which started my journey in a new direction. I stopped all my meds, did an elimination diet. I saw after 30 days of changing my diet how that greatly effected my health in a positive way. Then later I realized I want to keep going but learn it all on my own. So I did. I became symptom free from everything I know. I decided to blog on my findings and started a website, Foodgoddess50.com. Then I found companies that sold holistic things, I tried for myself and it worked for me. Then I started selling these things. My top products today are: Carbon 60, 90 Essential Nutrients, Essiac Tea, Ivermectin, Apricot seeds, Immunity Boosters and my newest is the Electric Box. I also am a Health Coach. I teach people on my visits about gut health, how correct stomach acid, diet-foods to eat and not to eat, emotional part of health-clear past traumas, spiritual side, discuss alternative therapies, antioxidants, detoxing safely, correct root problems, etc. I am a out of the box thinker. I have helped thousands overcome diseases including Cancer. Disclaimer- I cannot say I cure, heal or treat.
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
One day I started to browse Tik Tok. I was new but I was interested on learning. I decided to follow holistic people, wide awake people and was aligned with people for God/ Trump. I would follow like minded people that had same interests as myself. They would follow me back. Before you knew it I had several hundred people. I started commented on their videos of things that interest me. I think following people that think the same is key. It took me 4 years and I got 50,000 followers on Tik Tok. I had 10,000 followers on Facebook. I have 4,000 on Instagram today.
I started to go live daily on these platforms which really elevated my following. Then I realized I was becoming a great speaker. A gift I have and did not know it.
However, recently I was kicked off Facebook and Tik Tok for my knowledge in holistic. It has been tough so I have to be creative to stay alive in social media.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I have had to unlearn my training as a nurse. In the medical field it is true to say that everyone is suppose to go to the doctor then when they get sick. I am speaking of chronic conditions. The doctor gives the patient medicine for your disease. The medicine is only treating the symptoms, but you will still be sick (forever). I was taught to get mammograms which can cause 75% increase in getting breast cancer. I was taught to take blood pressure medicine . I was told it is hereditary. That is not true. The lack of calcium, magnesium and potassium and too much sugar in the blood can cause high blood pressure. The majority of the public has high blood pressure because we are all deficient in nutrients. I was told food has nothing to do with disease, that is not true. I was told all medicines are safe, they all have a risk and can make us worse. I was told chemo was the only way to treat Cancer. Actually it only works 3% of the time and destroys our immune system. Every holistic thing I know gets rid of cancer. We were told holistic does not work. However, it did as far back as 1800s.
