For adults, it is an ideal coffee table book.

This is the sort of book you will read and re-read because, if you love cats or you don’t, you will never stop being amused.

Makes a great gift for the cat lover in your life!!! 🎁

CATEGORY: Drinking Water

Use Promo Code “SHARILIKESFRUIT” for a 5% Discount!

I personally use the Mini Classic CT Countertop Water Distiller. Available on backorder only. About six weeks. Made in the USA.

I distill my water because the air is polluted, and I don’t trust streams or well water. Once it’s steam distilled, you can add back minerals with lemon or cucumbers, or better yet, eat a wide variety of hydrating fruit and vegetables every day.

“We are purists. We believe that when we want to drink water, we just want water. If you have a filter or reverse osmosis, they are a good first step, but in the end, you should only be drinking the cleanest water, which is distilled water,” said Paul Meder, Vice President of Technical Services, Research and Development.

Remember to use Promo Code “ShariLikesFruit” for a 5% discount!


CATEGORY:  Coaching and Community

Thrive and Shine

Now Closed to New Members! Please contact us for plant-based community recommendations.

Thrive and Shine is a gathering place where all stages of health and diet styles are embraced. We are a judgment-free zone of unconditionally supportive, like-minded friends.

Thrive and Shine is a safe space where you can come as you are and feel welcomed and valued. No matter where you are in your wellness journey, we welcome you as we hold space for you to grow.

In this community built on kindness and compassion, we receive with open arms all who want to heal, grow, detox, thrive, be held accountable, ask questions, and be supported by a group of like-minded humans.

This is not an exclusively vegan or raw vegan group. We value everyone’s stage in their own journey and believe we can all learn and grow together.

To keep this community intimate – and for you to feel heard and nurtured – I am limiting the number of spots until further notice. 

As we begin our journey together, I want to ensure you feel 100% supported but not overwhelmed!

Ramona Valley Humane Society

The Ramona Valley Humane Society & SPCA will be a no-kill shelter for Ramona and surrounding areas, a haven for lost and abandoned animals. We also plan to partner with local schools to teach children the importance of caring for animals. We are seeking grant money and welcome all donations as well. 

Our mission statement is: “To assist and rescue domestic and farm animals and to provide low-cost or free spay and neutering and other necessary veterinary assistance, emergency aid, and relevant advice to help these people better afford to help or keep their animals. Our goal is to work towards a day when we no longer need to euthanize companions or any animals.”


CATEGORY:  Food Addiction Recovery

Based on her years of experience in overcoming food addiction and studying all the modalities for healing, Jeannette was inspired to create a six-week course (The Food Addiction Freedom Course) to help other women interested in the plant-based diet do the same.

Although all aspects of the vegan diet and exercise are covered in depth, the course emphasizes helping women change their mindset.

“We are diving deep into the core reasons exactly why we are self-sabotaging, and then we will ELIMINATE those reasons.

Prepare to do some very uncomfortable things like working out with me, tapping on your face, sharing and getting vulnerable with me and nine other amazing women, and receiving the support we ALL need to make significant changes and take massive action in our lives to get the health, body, and life we REALLY want and deserve!

YOU GOT THIS! But you don’t have to do it alone!”

This unique approach has created a high demand for her course, but she limits each session to 10 women to provide her undivided attention and dedication.

Email the words “I Am Ready” to [email protected] to apply – mention you heard about the course from Shari Likes Fruit!
