  • Wow..the past few weeks have been one amazing rollercoaster of exciting things happening for This Is Coco! One of the highlights is my nomination as one of the 30 female entrepreneurs for Visionista of the year organized by Dutch lifestyle magazine @viva_nl Tomorrow I get to pitch the plans I have for my big passion @coconutqueendom during a day with masterclasses. So happy with this opportunity and looking forward to a very inspiring day with other passionate people on a mission to bring positive contributions. ❤🙏 At the end of the day, 10 ladies will continue to round 2 with the chance to win a fantastic coaching and acceleration trajectory. How great is that?! I need to give you all an update soon about all that has been happening behind the scenes lately. I barely had time to be on social media, because so much has been happening. I developed 3 amazing workshops that I'm starting with next month in Amsterdam, updated my website and translated all into Dutch, joined forces with some really cool people and some more big things. There is just nothing like doing what you're passionate about, so grateful for all of these experiences and connections! Much love to you all and thank you for joining me for this amazing ride. . . . . . . #viva400visionista #driven #nominated #girlbosstribe #inspiringwomen #bossladymindset #femaleentrepreneurs #genomineerd #goaldiggers #makeadifference #womenentrepreneurs #girlbosslife #bethechangeyouwanttosee #duurzaamheid #dutchgirlboss #sustainablebusiness #changetheworld #consciouslifestyle #beyourownbossbabe #dreamjobmakers #healthblog #naturallifestyle #wellnesswarrior #greenbeautyblogger #womenonamission #holisticliving #holisticlifestyle #businessbabesnl #ambitieuzemeisjes #vrouwelijkeondernemers

  • Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic practise that originated in India. It helps detoxify your mouth by swishing a natural oil in your mouth. You pull the oil between your teeth and around your mouth for 15-20 minutes and then spit it out. Afterwards you brush your teeth as usual. Oil pulling helps remove bacteria and plaque. It helps maintain healthy teeth and gums, reduces tooth decay, whitens teeth and freshens your breath. Plus the benefits go for beyond your mouth, as it helps detoxify your body. More about oil pulling, why coconut oil is particularly good for it and the instructions for homemade coconut oil pulling cubes in the link in my bio. . . . . . . #oilpulling #coconutlover #ayurvedaeveryday #coconutlove #coconutoil #coconutoilbenefits #holisticmama #holisticdentistry #holistichealthcare #coconutoilpulling #ayurvedaforlife #chemicalfreebeauty #ayurvedalove #kokosolie #kokosnoot #coconutoilislife #wellnesscommunity #coconutoilforlife #ayurvedatreatment #coconutoillover #oilpull #greenbeautybloggers #oilpullingbenefits #wellnesswarriors #holisticlifecoach #coconutoiluses #diybeauty #selfcarerituals #diybeautyproducts #coconutqueendom
  • In the mood for some fresh coconut. ☀️☀️ When not, really?! Talking about young coconuts, do you prefer the yellow or green ones? I've mostly had green ones in my life and I can't really remember if the few yellow ones I had were sweeter or different?
