MEET ALICE HICKOX
Alice’s Joyful Journey
My passion and personal journey into the world of healing nutrition and culinary arts began in my teens when I took over the family cooking duties as my mother battled cancer. Determined to help with my mother’s healing process, I created family dinner menus in advance to include free-range and hormone-free meat, the freshest vegetables, and whole grains, while eliminating processed, cancer-fueling foods.
The farm-to-table, free-range, and wild-caught concepts so important today, were a way of life on our family farm.
After years of honing my culinary and nutrition skills through personal research and experience, I began a Personal Chef Business. I had the opportunity to experience designing menus and wellness plans for clients with diverse nutritional ranges - those struggling with cancer, diabetes, and auto-immune disease, to simply helping clients find their ideal wellness or weight loss goals. Through my own love of cooking and nutrition experience, my team of chefs and I were able to help hundreds of clients break free from food bondage, get “un-stuck” from detrimental eating habits, restore healthy blood sugars and habits, and best of all, work with cancer patients to incorporate the best nutrition.
“We are not victims of genetics or painful life experiences; we grab them, lasso them in, and be the change.” Alice Hickox
In 2020, I myself was diagnosed with cancer. After reality set in, I learned I had a genetic predisposition to certain cancers. After surgeries and treatment, I realized I was only helping an isolated few in my community as a Personal Chef, and decided to launch full-on into Nutritional and Wellness Coaching to help more people live free from the chains disease, food bondage and unhealthy habits.
Today, my Mom and I are completely cancer-free! Whether or not my role as the family chef played a role, I am a forever believer that the foods we choose to put in our body have a dramatic impact on our body’s ability to prevent, heal and thrive. As a result of research and a lifetime study of Nutrition, that YOU can change your life, your habits and embrace a love of deep nutrition.
“The Joyful Journey” was born from the desire to help others identify unhealthy relationships with food, re-ignite a passion for deep wellness, and create a map from food bondage to food freedom.
