“I started Be It Enterprises is because I've seen so many promising health and wellness initiatives lack the resources, funding and/or participation to sustain and keep them thriving to address the core health and wellness concerns of the communities in which they belong.

Be It Enterprises aims to motivate communities to engage in healthful lifestyle practices through unique, creative and inspirationally transformative approaches to healthy lifestyle behaviors that are sustainable and CAN-DOable.”

Central to our philosophy is the belief that “the achievement of dreams sprouts from the grounds of wellness.”
