At Before You Go! Mixed Greens For The Soul, we know that life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, but we also know this: with the right tools, support, and mindset, growth is always within reach.

Our work is built on the belief that wellness should be accessible, inclusive, and rooted in real-life experiences. From guided journals and coaching to workshops and community events, everything we create is designed to speak to the whole person — honoring the diverse identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences of those we serve. As a woman-owned, minority-led business, we are proud to lift up voices that are too often overlooked, making sure that healing spaces reflect the people in them.

At the heart of everything we offer are three proprietary systems that guide people, businesses and organizations toward lasting change:

  • The Emotional Freedom Framework™ — Our signature system for emotional healing, growth, and resilience, delivered through guided journals, workshops, online courses, and coaching. This step-by-step framework helps people unpack emotional barriers and build stronger, healthier lives from the inside out.
     

  • Pause. Patch. Reflect.™ — A practical, powerful method taught in trainings, workshops, and self-guided resources, giving people a clear path to process emotions, heal, and move forward with confidence.
     

  • The Wellness <Code/>™ — A systemic wellness framework designed for organizations, teams, and leaders, providing strategies and consulting to build sustainable, long-term wellness ecosystems that work in real life — not just on paper.
     

Together, these systems form the foundation of our mission — to create spaces and resources where healing is possible, wellness is sustainable, and people are empowered to take back control of their lives.
 

We don’t believe in quick fixes. We believe in real tools, real conversations, and real change. Whether you are starting your healing journey, leading a team, or looking to transform your organization’s approach to wellness, we’re here to walk with you every step of the way.

OUR FOUNDER

From Master Teacher to Wellness Expert

L'Taundra Everhart, M.Ed
Founder & CEO of Before You Go! Mixed Greens For The Soul

L'Taundra Everhart has always believed in the power of education to transform lives — but her mission grew even deeper when she realized that healing, growth, and learning must go hand-in-hand. With more than 20 years of experience as a licensed K-12 administrator and high school teacher, L'Taundra has spent her career helping others navigate emotional, social, and behavioral challenges.

Long before wellness was a buzzword, she was writing about mental health as a newspaper reporter, working to bring hidden struggles into the light. But her passion for this work is also personal. Having witnessed firsthand the impact of untreated trauma — including in her own family — L'Taundra knows the cost of silence and stigma.

It’s those experiences that inspire her to create real, tangible solutions for people who are tired of feeling stuck — and who are ready to grow. Through The Emotional Freedom Framework™, Pause. Patch. Reflect.™, and The Wellness <Code/>™, L'Taundra and the BYG! team offer a new way forward — one rooted in self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness, but also grounded in practical, actionable steps.

Because we all deserve a life where healing isn’t just possible — it’s within reach.
