In Sanskrit, Alaya means “dwelling” or “abode.” As we developed our line of Alaya Natural products, we kept the idea that the human body is a place of shelter at the forefront of our minds. And so began our journey into the world of superfoods with the creation of Alaya Naturals.
Our annual revenue is 6 million with over 100,000+ customers with a team size of 5.
Alaya Naturals is perfect for anyone wanting to dive into alternative dietary changes and live an overall healthier lifestyle. We continue to research, test, and perfect our products to deliver the very best to our community.
This concept of Alaya extends beyond the physical body to encompass the fullness of our experiences—our personal histories and our future potential.

Born in Los Angeles, I spent decades writing music and singing and am now the founder of a nutrition company, Alaya Naturals. As an entrepreneur, former performer, and mother of two small children, I believe that everything is an art in some form or other. How we move, communicate, and create is all a projection of our deeper value systems and my reverence for authenticity and honesty inform everything I put into the world. I am passionate about the exchange of ideas and desires that occur when the stories of our lives are unveiled and our humanity is revealed through the willingness to be vulnerable.
Podcasting is my current infatuation as it allows for stories to be told in a way that is improvisational and wholly real, providing a hall pass for listeners to shine a light on their own stories and reevaluate belief systems that may or may not be relevant to their current identity.

As seen on
Born with an autoimmune condition that suppresses my white blood cells, I spent years battling oppressive ailments. When my beautiful children arrived, they brought tremendous joy into my life, but my immune system had its own agenda. Sleepless nights and depleted energy threatened to disrupt my time with them and derail my larger goals. I knew that my body needed healing.
So began my journey into the world of superfoods and the creation of Alaya Naturals. It has been a long road as I researched, tested, and perfected our products. But the effort was worth it. Today, I am stronger, healthier, and more present in all areas of my life.
I invite you to join the movement and tap into your fullest potential.
