Hello there fellow foodie!
Why the name, The Posh Pear, you ask?
Well, according to USAPears.org (yes, such a website does indeed exist), Pears can be used to symbolize many things; Prosperity, Grace, Comfort & Inner Peace...
All qualities I believe set a great foundation for one seeking a new healthy lifestyle / continuing such positive habits already!
On that note, to briefly introduce myself, my name is Meghan (aka. The Posh Pear) & for as long as I can remember I've always been intrigued by products that help one to seek a "healthier / mindful" nutritious lifestyle.
To give you some further background, as I begin this blog, right now the world is currently suffering from the pandemic of a virus called COVID-19. Unfortunately, like so many others affected by the new growing pains of society, I too lost my job & immediately felt the weight of the 'signs of the time' crushing in on me. In that previous role, I was a "chocolate & lifestyle brand development buyer" for one of biggest emporiums in the world. As someone who always prides themselves a being a 'health nut', filled with the passion to always stay in a state of positivity - the idea to start The Posh Pear originated with me starting at that job - one where it was my goal to inspire my colleagues to learn mindful snacking & self-care habits - now forced into this period of self-reflection (aka. social distancing / quarantining)...
Flash forward to today, amidst these uncharted times, in a 'new world' heavily focused on 'social distancing' in an effort to keep the public safe, my dream to launch The Posh Pear suddenly feels right - needed more than ever, as I strive to inspire other to make positive changes in their individual lives!
For it is my goal, as I invite you to come on this journey with me, to try new health conscious food products & develop a deeper understanding of what it means to be mindful - developing / maintaining a healthy immune system, indulging in a little self-care & cultivating a successful toolbox of mental strategies that can help you succeed in life - no matter what stage you're at, you'll be able to face the day (regardless of what comes your way) with full confidence!
So what types of reviews / content can you expect to find on The Posh Pear?
Well, starting with a couple non-paid sponsored reviews (made possible by Perfect Bar, Fabalish & Four Sigmatic), you as the reader will be able to gage whether or not you'd like to try a particular product based off my "mindful minute" reviews.
(note: I would just like to take a moment to thank my first 3 non-paid sponsors mentioned above... thank you for believing in me & my mission to inspire others, you have my upmost gratitude).
Broken down for your convenience,
into the variety of 3 review categories ...
1) Healthy Food Review = edible product (snack, main meal or beverage item).
2) Lifestyle Product Reviews = non-edible product (mindfulness, app or clothing item).
3) Supplement Reviews = extra elements (vitamins, protein powder or adaptogens).
While I don't consider myself a full vegetarian or even pescatarian (as I still eat eggs, white meat only, diary & fish), I've been on quite the journey over the years, through education & personal awareness, so I do not eat any form of red meat, pork, duck or dark meat - therefore, on The Posh Pear you'll find I often review many products that might be considered; Whole30, Keto, Vegetarian, Paleo, Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free or even just Clean - but know that other than my "no" preferences above, I typically tend to live a pretty "conscious " lifestyle & am always looking for the next "new" trend!
Now I'm not saying you can't take a break & have a Kit-Kat every once in a while, just remember (as I tell myself all the time) everything is good for you in moderation...
aka. variety is the spice of life!
