As the founder and lead coach of Plant Powered Shift, Sherimane Johnson has built her business on the foundation of her own transformative health journey. Over 20 years ago, she was diagnosed with diabetes, a condition that ran in her family, along with high blood pressure. Living in a food desert with limited access to fresh, nutritious food, she struggled with the side effects of medication and began searching for a healthier, more sustainable way to manage her condition. Through extensive research, she discovered the profound benefits of a plant-based diet. This change not only allowed Sherimane to manage her diabetes without medication, but it also transformed her overall health, improving her A1C levels and leading to a medication-free life for over 16 years.

Sherimane's personal success with plant-based living inspired her to help others experience similar transformations. She pursued her passion for food and health, starting as a vegan pastry chef before expanding her expertise into full plant-based nutrition. Over the years, she became a certified plant-based nutritionist and a Food for Life instructor, using her skills to provide comprehensive support to individuals and families seeking a healthier lifestyle. Her work is a blend of culinary creativity and nutritional science, offering a holistic approach to plant-based eating.

At Plant Powered Shift, Sherimane’s mission is to make plant-based living accessible, relatable, and enjoyable for everyone. Her unique combination of personal experience and professional expertise allows her to connect with clients on a deeper level, helping them navigate their own health challenges with confidence. Through personalized coaching, innovative meal planning, and hands-on cooking workshops, she empowers others to take control of their health and discover the transformative power of plant-based nutrition.
