My Healthy Life

Danette Haag

I am a wife, and God has blessed me with 3 amazing boys to nurture, care for, and teach them all that I can.  My family is my EVERYTHING and I take my job, as mom, very seriously. I know all too well how unpredictable life is and how easily it can change in an instant. 

I was severely burned at the age of 10 in a house explosion.  The doctors doubted I would survive the trauma but by the Grace of God  I’m here today.  I spent all of my childhood, teen years and beyond in and out of hospitals having surgery after surgery.  I learned at a very young age that life is fragile and that I only have one body…I need to take care of it.

Having so much experience as a patient in the hospital, my life lead me into the profession of  Pediatric Nursing.  I got my bachelor’s degree and have helped many children/families through their own illness process…some acute and some chronic.  Watching kids suffer from traumas, autoimmune disorders, acute illnesses, genetic disorders and the most horrific childhood cancers; reminds me everyday how precious life is. 

Some things in life are not controllable, like traumatic accidents…my fire for example.  Other things in life we can take control of…like our lifestyle, what we put in/on our bodies, whether or not we choose to be active, and the other things in our environment that can affect our health.  And setting a good example for our children to lead a healthy lifestyle now and into their adulthood.  This is MY BIG WHY!!  As well as taking care of myself and my wonderful husband so we can be healthy and active in our future retirement years as well today.

As a young adult, knowing how fragile life can be from my own experiences, I took charge of my life at the age of 25.  I started running regularly…as painful as it was at first…and worked my way up to competing in 5k and 10k races.  I also completed many ½ marathons and one full marathon.  It feels so good to take charge of your life in a healthy way and accomplish things I NEVER thought I could before. 

As a nurse, I have an understanding of how pharmacology works in our body.  Not only through the medications we take and the food we eat, but by EVERYHING we put in and on our bodies.  Our internal system processes it all the same and every toxin and well as everything good for us reaches all parts of our body.  So we can either offer our cells healthy nutrients or toxic chemicals.  We have a choice and My Healthy Life can show you how!!

My WHY’s are my kids, my husband and knowing too well how fragile life is.  It’s important to me to take charge of my health and it feels empowering to be in control wherever I can …to me that includes working out, eating healthy, and using products that are toxin FREE for my family.  My Healthy Life helps me reach my goals.  Sit with me and I’ll tell you more about my story, and why I am so passionate about My Healthy Life and I’d love to learn about YOUR WHY as well.

I would be honored to meet with you and get you know your WHY!
