Episode 1: Taylure Ruggeri CEO of Bore Acha

I am Taylure... AKA Bore Acha.

A digital nomad, an integrative nutrition health coach, energy practitioner, and trained chef. The definition of health differs from person to person and I am on a mission to explore global culture and it's impact on our relationship with holistic health. Join weekly for an unconventional radio show. We will be getting down and dirty with the black sheep of the industry... people from all over the world who are redefining multidimensional existence and live fearlessly in their truth. Let's get Bloody Raw.

Let’s get vulnerable… shall we?

On today’s episode I introduce myself. We get into three sections: my upbringing, my career/identity, and a glimpse on where I plan on taking my business.

I’m in a place of saying fuck you to my perfectionism. As I listen to this episode, I cringe. For some reason that cringe in this moment really turns me on. Maybe it’s because I am stepping into what I am supposed to be doing… or maybe it’s because I am uncomfortable. Boy do I love to feel uncomfortable.

The art of feeling the fear and doing it anyways.

I was bred to thrive in chaos. I am chaotic. I am organised… Social yet recluse, emotional yet numb... It took two decades to understand how my upbringing fostered multiple identities and a curiosity to try it all. That would later expand my understanding of culture and socioeconomic impacts on each person’s ability to find and define their health. I have always had insane energy. I was diagnosed with ADHD/ADD at 17 but really struggled on a multidimensional level my entire life because I didn’t know how to work with my impulsive mind. Rebellion started young, but my true pain point was a deep anger for authority. Faculty at rich public schools, parent figures in my life, doctors, rehabilitation facilities that would foster relapses for my brother, the educational system… list goes on and on. Years would pass and I couldn’t shake the feeling of being drastically let down by the system.

I bounced week on and week off from two drastically different households from the age of 1. Which in a very obvious way, created the human that I am. My masculine and feminine would argue constantly as I tried to live life without a genuine connection to either parent. I never felt I belonged. An abandoned burden. I used humor to communicate to my peers and learned how to read a space/please in order to mask my true emotions and internal conflict from inside the womb.

Looking back my upbringing was a cluster fuck of traumatic event after traumatic event. These experiences I have had developed a burning desire to transmute my anger for the system into my reason for living.

The only constant in my life was my brother, he raised me in a way… and at 15 he began to develop an addiction. The only constant in my life abandoned me. Overdosing, flat lining, rehab centers… I lived in the shadows of his addiction, and I tried to grab anything that would help me stay afloat. I managed to keep my heart beating but I watched my personality and morals sink to the bottom of any nearest Jack Daniels bottle.

We could go on and on, but the point is my upbringing molded my stability, understanding of food/culture, development of street smart/education, rebellious nature, toxic relationships with body movement and emotional eating, inability to process emotions…. well… just about every fucking good thing and bad thing about me. That is life though… rewriting your story. Becoming. Enjoying the journey.

My life has been pretty different from yours hasn’t it? That is the point of this podcast and of Bore Acha. Health is not one size fits all. Health is not a kale smoothie and a marathon. Health is your relationship with food, your sense of self-worth, your routine, your internal dialogue, your ability to be present, and your ability to define your joy. I think most importantly your ability to bounce back. Shit will hit the fan. Again and again and again… The objective is not perfection. The objective is to understand your shadows, your limiting beliefs, your goals, where you want to be, and appreciating where you are now. The ability to understand no one body is alike, to tune into yourself.

We are in a desperate place for a holistic revolution. The objective is not perfection, the objective is claim your environment and identify your ever changing boundaries.

Bloody Raw Holistic Health is a radio show designed to inspire you to redefine the way you approach your health and journey.

I hope you enjoyed this cringey chaotic start and boy am I excited to make you uncomfortable 🥴 . We are in this together.
