2 months ago I was sick and exhausted in bed and tired of it! :p A little birdy whispered in my ear to go get a cleanse and that would help. After the doctors did a CT scan and found nothing I called Vicki for a colon hydrotherapy appointment.
Now I feel like a completely different person! My face has cleared up, my lower back doesn't hurt constantly, and I am not as tired as I used to be! Since Vicki helped me...now I'd like to help others too!
Here is the letter I wrote to my mentor, Vicki Talmage

Help Single Mother become a Colon Therapist! Even $10 would help! :) If 400 people gave only $20 that would cover the training costs! :)

My Dearest Vicki,
The past year being on my own I found the first job
that I thought I could get. After 4 months I quit because I knew I was meant to
do and be something more. Have you ever felt you were supposed to make a
difference in the world for the betterment of others? Well, I was waiting and
praying for that opportunity to arise.
About a month ago my health had deteriorated to an
all-time low. I was in bed most of the day from horrible back pain, and my
kidney started to hurt as well. The doctors found nothing in modern medicine so
I knew I had to go a natural route, not main stream. I remembered meeting you
and buying your book a few years ago when you did a Noah’s event. Back then I
thought, “Ya, eating greens first would be better,” but I was still too
addicted to sugar…still am. But the difference now is I am willing to stop to
change my path and create a better future with my health and for my family! And
I wanted to do a cleanse back then, but wasn’t in a financial position to do
so.
About a month ago your book and name popped into my
head. SO I called to make an appointment, knowing this was one way I could feel
better. Because I’ve learned that when there are problems with the skin, there
is a problem in the gut. So I decided to start there since I’ve had IBS since I
was a child!
During my first visit, I was curious how you became
a colon-therapist and I asked lots of questions, and my mind was racing
thinking could this be for me? Now I didn't want a job just to have a job I
wanted to make a difference in the world and I believe this is what Heavenly
Father wants me to do. Granted poop or the colon was not on my top priority
list of occupations. But what really matters to me, is if I’m truly helping
others that's all I really care about I just want to be able to make a
difference in other people's lives. And over this past month only seeing you 4
times, I have grown to love you like an awesome cool big sister I never had!
My vision started with lots of ideas! I would love
to not only work at the clinic up to 25 hours to 30 hours a week but I would
love to start doing YouTube videos and showing people how to eat healthier
foods like sprouting beans, and all of your recipes in your book!
I know I'm not supposed to do a nine to five job, at
least not in the typical sense, but being a part of the Vitae Health umbrella
would bring me tremendous satisfaction! Your products alone would be worth it!
But on top of that, the possibility that I get to have you as a trainer, a
mentor, and a new friend! Your method is
supreme, I love all the knowledge you share with others and I would like to
help with that. Maybe even help you compile a booklet or pamphlet to let
clients read so they know the importance of why the certain foods, the
wheatgrass, etc.! I personal am a seeker of truth and I love knowing the why
behind everything and the science of food and our bodies fascinate me! I
believe others would be more willing to follow the program if they know the
whys as well!
After two years when all my children are all in
school, I plan on increasing my hours. I think we can figure things out with
all the details. I’m not certain where
the finances will come from but I have faith that my path is intertwined with
yours and Divine Providence will show us the way!
I already have a ton of
ideas on what I could do to add to your business. I am proficient in computers
and can help with the website, You Tube, Social Media, or even a Blog if you
wish and many more things! One of my gifts is to see how to streamline things
and make them work more smoothly.
I believe with your
help at first and tutelage I can have a solid client base to add to yours! I
still even see an office being opened up in Utah County in the future and would
love to help make all that happen and more!
After coming to see you
Vicki, I have come alive again! I felt like I’ve been sleep walking the past
few years and not just because I’m on my own right now but because of the
deterioration of my physical and emotional health. Thank you from the bottom of
my heart for awaking my soul to my true purpose.
Together I believe we
can accomplish many great and amazing things! I love being a Mother and even
though I stink at staying home I am definitely more productive when I’m busy
and have things to do outside of the home. Somehow my home life gets in order
when I feel like I can be more than a homemaker! I would love to start a new
journey with you and be your intern! J
For the first time in
the past few years I feel like I can help my family and support us financial
with this opportunity. Thank you for helping me to find hope again.
All my Love,
Marianne Merrill
After she read the letter I needed to find the funding so here I am. I'm looking into Small business loans, but without a job, collateral, or decent credit my chances are slim to none!
I found a possible source but the funds aren't all I need so my Mother created a gofundme.com account.
Here is my business plan below! :) Happy Reading but if I were you, just watch this AWESOME video it sums it up nicely and not as borning as a business plan! :))
For a
descriptive You Tube video to explain why we all need a cleanse at least once
in our life go here: https://youtu.be/PV4rowSN_AQ?t=6m33s

way. That is what we intent to teach clients; How to live a more complete life
by including nutrient rich raw living foods to regenerate the body’s
organs. We help people with a Colonic
service, which is irrigating the colon. Aka; Colon Hydrotherapy. I plan on
being a certified Colon Therapist with Vicki Talmage as my Mentor and business
partner.
Vitae Health is fully operational now. Marianne
Merrill would be adding a few more days for clients to be seen. This will make
it easier for clients to schedule appointments and Marianne plans on taking
over the business so Vicki can retire within 5 years. And after 10 years and
another therapist is trained, we will open another clinic in Utah County. We
also plan on doing raw food workshops and selling those homemade items as well.

Healthy
colon vs. Impacted Colon
A sick colon creates a sick body. Doctors warn against it letting build
up. It stops you from absorbing vitamins, minerals, and the nutrients in your
food. If your colon isn’t clean, you won’t feel well.
Symptoms of constipation include:- Fewer than three bowel movements per week
- Small, hard, dry stools that are difficult or painful to pass
- The need to strain excessively to have a bowel movement
- A feeling that your rectum is not empty after a bowel movement
- Frequent use of enemas, laxatives or suppositories
Symptoms of fecal impaction include:
- Liquid stool (the stool is leaking around the impacted mass of feces and can be mistaken for diarrhea)
- Abdominal pain, especially after meals
- A persistent urge to move the bowels
- Nausea and vomiting
- Headache
- Poor appetite, weight loss
- Malaise (a generally sick feeling)
- If the problem is not treated, dehydration, rapid pulse, rapid breathing, fever, agitation, confusion and urinary incontinence (info from drugs.com)
What to expect when you do a
colon cleanse
What comes out of your colon may not be like anything you have ever
experienced, so do not be alarmed. It is natural, although the sight and smell
of it may be anything other than natural.If you can imagine food and waste, putrefying in your colon for years you can imagine it will not be pretty.
Once you ingest the colon cleanser (or do the enema) and the initial dumping of your bowel occurs, things may slow a little. You can expect that your body will continue to get rid of the waste that you have loosened up in your colon. This can take a couple of weeks.
You will slowly start to feel differently. At first, you could actually feel sick. This is because toxins that have been store are being released for the first time. This will pass as the toxins are excreted from the body.
Once you are cleaned out, your body will begin to heal itself. You will have more energy, you mood will lighten and you will feel more energized and renewed. You skin may clear up and pains that you have had for years will disappear. Miracles of people being relatively crippled and being healed after cleansing their body have occurred. This is because that the pain and joint swelling are often caused by an overload of toxins in the body.
If you maintain you normal eating habits, the cleanse can take 4-6 weeks. If
you use VitaeLife! Products the shakes and supplements, the waste can be
eliminated in a matter of days instead of weeks. We recommend doing a cleanse,
with the products and with the proper foods as well, until the “mucoid plaque”
is removed from your intestinal track to allow more absorption of essential
nutrients! Whatever your level of comfort we will accommodate.
Mucoid
plaque: is a harmful mucus-like material and food residue that they say coats
the gastrointestinal tract from years of mucus build up. The reason the body
builds up this plaque is because nothing you eat can get past the brain. When
we eat harmful substances; soda, coffee, salt and dairy combinations, and fried
foods the brain will classify it as what it is…poison and coat the food in
mucoid in order to protect the body from absorbing the alleged harmful
substances. Our body expects us to ingest poison only once in a while, and today’s
Standard American Diet, really is SAD. We eat these foods everyday, and then
wonder why we don’t feel good. Proper food combinations are essential!
Carbohydrates and Proteins are hard for the body to assimilate when eaten
together. It is best to separate them; Such as a chicken salad for lunch, and a
baked potato with all the veggie fixings for dinner! ~info from Bin to Banquet
Book by Vicki Talmage.
“The doctor of the future
will no longer treat the human frame with drugs, but rather will cure and prevent
disease with nutrition.” ~Thomas Edison
“Let food be thy medicine
and medicine be thy food” ~Hippocrates
Market
Strategy: We
will be giving free classes in multiple counties in order to bring in a new
client base for Marianne. Cost for marketing will be the food samples we give
out and demonstrate. We have access to a facility in P.G., My Oil Business,
which is available for free during business hours for meetings or
presentations, and can accommodate small groups or large up to 150 people.
We will be offering free incentives through the
online media channels, and can advertise
with the local YP.com about $500 a year, we can also mail fliers through the
USPS up to 700-900 residential houses around Midvale to attract more customers
for only $200. We can do this every quarter if necessary. We will stick to
Midvale as our Geographical territory and branch out from there every year.
Mostly
this has worked solely out of word of mouth and offering classes from Vicki
because she coaches people from all over the world individually, in her
workshops and in her retreats to successfully overcome grief and recapture the
art of living well. She is a sought after public speaker and has been sharing
her story to many diverse groups since she was 19 years old. Her attitude has
inspired many to heal and put their life in perspective as they move forward
toward their dreams.
Target Markets:
Individuals
who are health conscientious. The trend in society today is leaning more
towards alternative health and combining it with modern medicine. We also help
those who are sick or otherwise afflicted by some physical condition and mentor them to a healthier
lifestyle. Those who will mostly buy our services would be from 30 to 70 years
old, and even some children, who have been experiencing some type of condition
and are not happy with the side effects! Base salary range is around $48k per
year for a single or a couple. There are 11k households in Midvale and minus
the 17% in poverty and minus 24% without healthcare, that leaves us with around
6500 potential clients in Midvale. In Cottonwood Heights it has 12k households, and minus with 5% in
poverty and 12% without health insurance there is over a potential of 9900 new
clients. The population in West Jordan is 30k with 13% without health coverage
and 8% in poverty leaves over 23,000 new clients in that city. ~All stats from
census.gov for 2009-2013. All of these households are less than 15 minutes
away, And we already have many clients who travel 25-35 minutes to see our
clinic!
Competition: The closest one to the north from our Midvale Clinic is the Holistic Therapy Center at 3350 Highland Dr. Salt Lake City, UT 84106 and charges $75. The closest to the South is in Draper Corner Canyon Health & Wellness at 1178 Draper Pkwy. Dr. Gordon is a Chiropractor doctor, and charges $78 a session and do not have a wheatgrass implant.
There is also a Park City Colon
Therapy, at 19 Payday Dr Park City, UT 84060 and charges $75, and has no
supplements or shakes available, and can do the wheatgrass on request, but not
a standard practice.
We
differ by offering hands on care during the cleanse to help educate the client
and what diet is best to facilitate the cleansing process even before the first
appointment. We have proprietary 100% whole food herbal supplements to assist
the client, and our method includes a Wheatgrass implant in the cecum of the
colon to help assist in killing parasites that live in the ascending colon.
Due
to both locations we have clients all the way from South Utah County all the
way up to the Eastern part of Summit County, and all along the Wasatch front.
Our welcoming customer oriented services, help us to retain our clients and
they assist in referring new ones as well.
We
have many You Tube videos for client education. With the help of Marianne we
plan on creating multiple pamphlets, and starting a new blog and more Recipes
for our clientele to enjoy. All of these circumstances added together make the
experience at Vitae Health, a better way of life!
Management: Vicki Talmage is the 100% owner. She published the book, Bin to Banquet, which is available for purchase on Amazon. The book was written as to bring the reader step-by-step through the process of integrating at least 50% cellular foods into their daily diet. Included with the intricate information is 85 recipes which all may be freely used to satisfy the palate while doing your quarterly cleanses, and can be integrated into your daily diet. Wages for this position are _________________.
Noelle
Koenig is a raw food chef, and has taken a leave for now; Marianne will take
over her role for food demonstrations, You Tube videos, and the Blog after
Vicki has trained her sufficiently and shown her the methods. Mara Thompson,
part time Colon Therapist, she enjoys helping others reach their optimal health
through teaching and example. Wages for this position
are _________________.
Tiffanie
Lorenson; part time Colon Therapist, has been personally trained and mentored
by Vicki. Tiff completed a Bachelors Degree in 1998 from Montana State
University Northern in Physical Education and Health. For the past 5 years
Tiff has practiced Therapeutic, Injury, and Post-op Massage Therapy. However,
she still felt as if she was missing important pieces in her understanding of
how to take care of her body. This time she returned to Vicki committed to
discovering the missing pieces of health, mental clarity, and aliveness and how
that relates to the foods she was eating. By
living Vicki’s Program, Tiff has lost 120 pounds in the past 2 years, weight
that had plagued her body and emotions throughout her entire life. “Vicki’s
program has changed my life physically, mentally, emotionally, and
spiritually”. In 2009 Tiff approached Vicki in hopes of apprenticing and
working with her in the Clinic. Tiff has now dedicated a portion of her life to
coaching other people, assisting them in regaining the health, clarity and
freedom that she now experiences. Wages for this position are _________________.
Marianne Merrill will be another part-time
Therapist, and by buying shares in the company she will be a partner and after
5 years can become a full owner. She has a passion for helping others and Vicki
believes this will be a good fit. She is a single mother of 5 children and this
will be her main source of income. This business fulfills the need of
transforming the lives of Marianne and Vicki. For Vicki it fulfills the
opportunity to retire. For Marianne it provides a secure means to support her
small children; and mostly for others to live a healthier and more abundant
life! Wages for this position
