Meet the Owner – Laura Wegner, RN, Chef, & Wellness Rebel

Meet the Owner — Laura Wegner, RN

Hi! I’m Laura Wegner — registered nurse, former professional chef, and proud owner of RawGirls. I’m here to elevate what clean living really looks like — I believe what you eat should give back — not just satisfy you in the moment, but energize your week, clear your skin, brighten your mood. That’s what RawGirls is. 

With a background in both medicine and culinary arts, I’ve seen firsthand how deeply our diets affect everything — energy, sleep, hormones, mood, skin, even joy. That’s why RawGirls is more than just a place for cold-pressed juice and plant-based meals. It’s a lifestyle system. A source of real healing. And a home for anyone tired of watered-down wellness and ready to glow from the inside out.

💫 My Why

After years in healthcare, I realized we were doing it backwards — treating symptoms instead of root causes. I believe in the power of medicine, but I also believe food is the first and most consistent form of therapy we have access to.

One moment that changed everything for me happened at a community health fair. A woman asked a doctor, “What can I do to lower my blood pressure?” Without hesitation, the doctor replied, “Pills.” That was it. No questions about her diet, lifestyle, or emotional health. Just a prescription.

That moment stopped me — not because medicine isn’t helpful, but because it was offered as the first and only solution. That’s when I knew something had to change. RawGirls thrives because I believe food should be the foundation of how we care for ourselves — not the last resort.

🧠 Out of the Matrix. Into Your Power.

We’ve become disconnected — from our food, our bodies, and our purpose. Eating out of bags while driving. Surviving on caffeine. Trusting marketing over ingredients. I call it the matrix — a system designed to keep us inflamed, exhausted, and out of touch with what real nourishment feels like.

RawGirls is my answer. A wake-up call in a bottle. It’s not just about clean eating. It’s about reclaiming your power, your clarity, and your confidence — starting with what’s on your plate.
