Hi, my name is Jordyn Jacobson and I am the daughter of chef, Elyce Jacobson of Skinny Buddha. I have had the privilege to watch this business grow throughout the past eleven years and I am so excited to be a part of this new edition to their brand- Skinny Buddha Online! I will be writing for their blog, covering all kinds of topics related to healthy living, fitness, and diet. Along with this blog, Shaka and Elyce will be teaching you how to cook and exercise like a Buddha, and how to better care for your mind and body.
Growing up, I have had my mother and Shaka’s business as a shining example of the value of persistence and hard work. When my mom was younger, she says that she loved to make dinner and cocktail parties for friends, family, and teachers. Even though she went into accounting after college, she knew that her true passion was cooking, and she took an apprenticeship for a food business whilst also in a full time job. Shaka was introduced to fitness as early as high school, participating in athletics and learning weight training from a coach at his school.
He was later coached into being a trainer by the owner of a local boxing gym and he constantly continues to work on his craft and to improve. Both of them got to where they are today by pursuing their passions with unwavering dedication. For me, Skinny Buddha is not just a business, but a reminder to do what you love. I hope that this is the message that can be spread to the world through this online platform, in a time when we need it the most!
