Meet Carly & Blair
We’re here to remind you that play is the catalyst to growth. When you are in joy, you are magnetic. Combined, we’ve spent over 2 decades in the wellness space and our highest passion is helping people become their fullest self.
How we found JOY:
In November 2019, a thyroid cancer diagnosis turned my world upside down and required me to look at every single aspect of my life in a new way.
Instead of rushing in for surgery and radiation, I chose to take a pause, do some research, and work to discover the root cause of this disease.
And in that process, everything has changed, for the better.
So, what did I discover that inspired me to create and share this program?
Other than 2 specific non-toxic cancer therapies, every other therapy I did was focused around DETOX. Why? Because we live in a toxic world; from chemicals in our cars, homes, and food to personal care products and even the air we breathe.
These toxins take up residency in our bodies and alter the natural function and fullest expression of health.
By incorporating daily detox habits, you create a sustainable and replicable system to keep your body strong, healthy, and free of disease. How exciting is that? It’s not just one thing that will flip the switch from tired, bloated, brain fog, cravings, and irritability to grounded, energized, empowered, and embodied but a consistent application of daily practices.
It’s up to each of us to take radical responsibility to find the tools to support ourselves and our families to create radiant, vibrant health. And that is exactly what this course will do for you.
Each week has just one focus, i.e. hydration, enemas, or juicing. Along with the lesson, comes the key to learning, which is application and accountability. There will be a weekly challenge where you are encouraged to share online and in our private Facebook group. I want to hear from you, support you, and encourage you!
As featured in the Here For Healing podcast
Detoxification is the process of removing toxic build-up that may be blocking your body from experiencing it’s truest expression of health.
Remember: You can put the “good stuff” in all day, but if you are not simultaneously keeping your elimination pathways open and clear, the toxic residue remains.
You know the days when you feel strong, sexy, and confident in your body?
Maybe after an amazing yoga class, a long run, or a full day of whole foods and juicing. Those moments when you feel free, connected, expressed, and energized – the way you want to feel every day.
Unfortunately for most of us, that feeling doesn’t stick around for long. It’s easy to succumb to stress or fatigue, and reach for the nearest easy (but not-so-healthy) snack.
And understandably so...
You’re busy. You have a career. Family. Passions. People who rely on you.
And many times, your health comes 2nd to all your other responsibilities.
Since you're on this page, I'm guessing you…
Want something that supports you holistically and completely; a plan you can rely on for years to come
Crave more energy and vitality to move through your days
Are busy and need a simple, and do-able approach to wellness that compliments your on-the-go lifestyle
Aren’t in the habit of putting yourself first
Don’t want to spend thousands of dollars at wellness clinics but do want access to the tools shared there
So you need something do-able… simple… straight-forward… and most importantly, sustainable. I’ve got you.
“The Daily Detox honestly changed my life. For the first time in years, my scalp is not dry, and my skin is so clear. I also noticed a difference in the clearness of my eyes. I have more energy and my sleep is better too. Carly has a gift sharing her passion and does it in such a natural way. She is professional but also very approachable. Every time I had a question, she responded thoroughly and in a timely fashion.”
— Emily M.
“First, I have to tell you your detox program is amazing and I am seeing such positive impacts from the "crowd-out" approach without feeling restricted. My sugar cravings are GONE and that hasn't even been a primary focus. I've just been sticking to the weekly program. I could go on. My health journey has been intentional for over a year and I have seen such positive change since starting the daily detox, and I truly feel like I am on the right path now. You are such a light of inspiration and I'm grateful my sister found you on IG and introduced me to your page.”
— Mandy M.
“You will never regret investing in your health and that’s what this course is, an investment in yourself and your health.”
— Jenn W
“This detox is unlike any other. It’s sustainable. I felt like Carly was holding my hand through the process and it’s exactly what I needed through this journey. At the end of this, I felt like I could confidently let go of her hand and stand on my own. She has taught me so much and it has changed my life. I lost my mother at a young age due to illness and if I can help mitigate my risk by living this way then I’m in! I also feel amazing so that is a huge plus. Thank you Carly for sharing your health and healing journey. I’m forever grateful to you.”
— Dani M.
“This Daily Detox program has been life-changing for me. I went into it with few expectations - I just wanted to learn a little about how to be more intentional with ridding my body and environment of harmful toxins. I learned about how to do this and SO MUCH MORE! Most of all, I feel like I’m taking charge and being proactive about preventative practices that may just save my or a family member’s life. Truly. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity to participate in this program. God bless you, Carly!”

Testimonials
"I don’t know where to start. The place we stayed was amazing, immersed in the jungle, the food was fresh and so tasty, and the village is lovely to explore. The connection between us women has been the most powerful thing I’ve experienced and I learned a lot about myself and my health during the workshops and meditation sessions. The activities were fun and well organized, as well as, yoga lessons and on-site classes. It has been a life changing experience, I would recommend it to anyone who is ready to look deep into himself/herself and share it with others. I will bring this experience and a lot of new sisters in my heart forever." Gilda, Italy
"I've never experienced anything quite like this retreat. It was brilliantly crafted to include deep relaxation, exercise, adventure, play and introspective analysis. I was able to strengthen and nourish my body, recharge, dive deep into personal goals; all while enjoying myself. The lessons I learned during this retreat will truly last a lifetime. I will definitely be attending additional retreats hosted my Carly Shankman-Brown."
"This was an eye opening experience, everything about this retreat was magical and perfectly put together. I learned so much about myself, others, my body, mind, soul and spirituality. The experience is priceless." Nadia, New York
"I spent a week in the jungle doing yoga; learning about the natural habitat of plants and animals; and connecting on a deep level with myself; and I loved it! Carly was an amazing leader. She presented us with a week-long-adventure full of personal insights, self love, and deep connection with our fellow participants. Each activity flowed effortlessly and I never once had to be concerned with planning or logistics. Food was great too! I highly recommend Sacred Self Care Retreat to anyone ready for fun and growth! Loved it!" Cynthia, New York
"Coming on Carly's retreat was my third time in Costa Rica and by far the most illuminating. I have done years of healing, transformational, yoga, and self care work and the space that Carly created and held is something not many people can do as humbly as she does. It is hard to put into words all of the things that made this retreat so powerful. From the very beginning - months prior to actually going on the retreat, the entire schedule was laid out which I really appreciated because it was clear that she had been very thoughtful and intentional with what she was offering. I knew what I was paying for in exchange for the experience and my expectations were exceeded 10 fold. Every aspect of the retreat flowed effortlessly. What Carly creates is a space for one to learn how to nourish their soul in every area of life. She curated a space for true transformation and healing to take place. It has been a long time since I have felt so seen, loved and supported. By the end of the week, the 17 other women on the retreat felt like my sisters. Puerto Viejo is simply magical and no doubt added to the experience, however I am pretty sure that Carly could have run this retreat out of a cardboard box and it would be just as incredible. I can honestly say there was not one aspect of the retreat I was disappointed with - and bonus - it was SUPER affordable and included excursions and other goodies (I won't ruin the surprise for those of you that will be coming in the future, I will just say - she spoiled us rotten!). If you know Carly, I know you love her as much as I do and if you don't, do your soul a favor and come to her next retreat. The self care practices, life skills, and realizations that I gained in 7 days at Cashew Hill have changed my life for the better." Stacy Elizabeth, Texas
Y’all, ready? Excited? I am.
This information has transformed my life in the most incredible way and I am truly honored to share it with you.
The next group starts Summer 2023!
FAQs
Do you have to be local to Austin?
Nope! This is a digital product that can be done anywhere. It’s intended to teach you simple tools to use at home.
I have babies at home. Will I have time?
Absolutely! Good question. The course drips content out with just one focus and challenge a week so it is simple and digestible. For example, the first week is JUST hydration - that’s it. i.e. drink enough water :). and so forth for the following weeks. It was created to be enjoyed in bite size pieces. The time commitment is probably 1 - 3 hours per week.
Is the program pregnant-friendly?
Unfortunately, no. I do not recommend any cleanse or detox course while pregnant or breastfeeding. However, once you purchase it’s yours forever so feel free to enroll and get started whenever the time is right for you. You will always have access to the private members-only Facebook group.
What if I am unsure about introducing supplements right now?
Not all of the program applies to everyone. If you are already on a supplement protocol with your practitioner or just not interested in adding any in, that’s absolutely fine. You know your body better than I do so I trust your judgement on that. Take what serves you and leave what doesn’t.
What is the format of the program?
Each week you will receive an email with a content overview and challenge for the week. There is a private FB group where I will post videos and create discussions but you can be as involved as you like there.
