Blue Zones Project Blog

I moved to Oklahoma from West Texas to manage a retail property without knowing a soul. I met so many wonderful people through my job and built great relationships, but it took me over a year to make friends. I would get so excited when some of my favorite people would walk through the doors where I worked, but I didn’t feel we were close enough to call for a weekend hang-out, that first year was rough!

Who enjoys meeting new people? Who could benefit from more exercise and movement? For me, these were some of the reasons I was drawn to attending a moai meeting hosted by Blue Zones Project Pottawatomie County. I definitely enjoy meeting people, especially smaller groups, and I am always looking for ways to stay more active while having fun! So in September of 2017, I was able to take part in this adventure not knowing where it exactly it might lead me.

Potluck Moais ^® are an excellent tool for those looking for a little extra nudge or support when it comes to adding a plant slant to their diet. They are also a great opportunity to reconnect with old friends or meet someone new.
