Together We Are PAWriffic Health
Our journey began back in 2012 when Cj was struggling with a strange health issue that no vet could shed light on.
Seven vets and thousands of dollars later, we still had no answers or help for Cj and finding healing for him felt totally hopeless.
But giving up on him was never an option!
I (Julz) spent endless hours searching the internet desperate and relentlessly determined to find a way to help him.
And then, F I N A L L Y, I discovered real answers and true healing.
Initially it sounded too good to be true. But it was real, and it truly worked!
Over time we watched in awe as that strange, stubborn health issue Cj had slowly faded away. His energy and joy for life came back and I was over the moon knowing we’d finally found something that truly worked!
Once I uncovered the real answers and saw how to truly help Cj, there was no way I could keep that knowledge to myself.
It was life-changing - something everyone in the world deserved to know.
So, with the help of our two PAWriffic Health wizards, I began helping PAWrents in 2014, driven by a heartfelt mission to guide others toward true health and empower their furry ones to heal.
At the time, I was still working my full-time job as a Workers Comp. Claims Adjuster.
But while my days were spent in the corporate paperwork and claims, my heart was entirely devoted to helping PAWrents and their furry ones find relief and health.
Balancing both worlds was exhausting, but the more I immersed myself in learning about the body and witnessing the remarkable transformations, the deeper my passion grew.
The truth was undeniable: my true calling was beyond the corporate grind, fueled by a purpose far greater than just a paycheck.
In 2019, I gave notice to leave my job, ready to take the leap of faith and dedicate myself fully to helping PAWrents. But my manager really wanted me to stay and he offered me a raise. It was easier to cling to the safety of a steady paycheck than to face the unknown.
So, I withdrew my resignation and continued helping PAWrents on the side.
As 2020 rolled around, I couldn’t ignore the lingering thoughts that kept surfacing.
Cj was getting older and I wasn’t getting any younger and I felt like I was allowing money and doubts to guide my choices rather than to follow my heart doing what I was passionate about.
I began asking myself some hard soul-searching questions:
Was my job as a claims adjuster truly aligned with where my heart and life were meant to be?
What mattered more - money, or doing what you love every single day?
How can I not share what I’ve learned and help as many others as possible find their way to true health?
The inner conflict was overwhelming – torn between the comfort of a corporate job and the desire to follow my passion.
I also started reflecting on the advice I once gave my son, when I told him - ‘Find your passion, help others, and love life every single dang day.’
And yet, I wasn’t following that advice myself.
So, In January of 2021, I finally made the decision my heart had been urging me to make all along
I walked away from that secure, well-paying job I had held for over 13 years — along with the steady income and retirement benefits that came with it.
I told Cj we were going all in - we’d be helping all kinds of dogs, cats, and their people find their way to true health full-time and Peanut would be helping us from up above.
Deep down, I knew there was something far more valuable than a paycheck and the fact my loving husband backed me up, wanted me to follow my passion and was willing to carry most the financial weight is something I’ll never forget and will forever have gratitude for.
In March of 2021, our PAWriffic Health business logo was ready to go. It happened only days prior to March 14, 2021 which was the day Cj transitioned from this world. It felt like he made sure he had everything in place before his time here came to an end.
Before Cj left, with tears streaming down my face I made a heartfelt promise to him – NO matter what, no matter how hard it gets, you me and Peanut together will continue to help as many dogs and cats out there who are searching for true health and need help just like we once did.
Looking back, I realize just how much Cj accomplished during his time with us. I truly believe a big part of his purpose was to lead me to true health, teach me to follow my heart, and launch PAWriffic Health together officially off the ground.
And when his time came to an end, he left me with the strength and purpose to carry on and his purpose continues to live on through PAWriffic Health.
I know my little Cj boy and my Peanut girl are still with me, guiding me every step of the way. Their legacy continues to inspire everything we do.
We truly understand how heartbreaking, frustrating, helpless, and exhausting it can feel when you’re searching for answers to help your furry one. I remember the countless nights I spent crying, feeling defeated, desperate to find something that would help Cj.
That’s why we genuinely care about teaching and empowering PAWrents to understand why their dogs or cats are suffering and the most effective ways to help their bodies heal themselves.
Best of all, we do it all with real, energetic, living foods. It’s what transformed not only Cj’s life but my life too, and it’s what continues to drive us to help others experience the same transformation.
Every time I help another PAWrent find their way to true health, I feel Cj and Peanut’s love and guidance lifting me higher. Together, we’re continuing the mission they inspired - helping more dogs and cats thrive and live the happy, healthy PAWriffic lives they deserve.
