Vaccines Destroyed our Daughter Elizabeth’s Life

My youngest daughter Elizabeth is profoundly and permanently disabled from vaccine injury. She requires a 24-hour wake staff to care for her in the highest level care facility that California offers. Her care costs over $6000 a month.

Mask Hysteria

Do not waste your time reading this if you voluntarily wear masks in public.

This is written solely for those who will not comply to mere non-law, tyrannical “guidance and conditioning.”

Mask-A-Raid on Medical and Religious Freedom

According to the dictionary, the word ‘masquerade’ is defined as ‘a false show or pretense.’ Synonyms include: deception, facade, cover-up, and act. How very fitting. Using California as an example, are you aware that there is no mask law, nor is there any mask mandate in California? Governor Newsom, himself admitted, HERE, that […]

Reynolds Family’s Story

Raising two teens is hard enough until you throw in the Pandemic and all the craziness that our kids were forced to endure in public school. Masking, vaccines, bullying, Common Core, CRT, and other things we didn’t align with made it nearly impossible. We felt like traitors sending them to a school where we weren’t being heard. We were not completely sure we could homeschool our kids when neither of us have degrees and we both work. My husband even travels frequently for work and for trainings. Carmel showed us how to tweak just a few things enough to make it work for all four of us. Our home has never been happier. Both kids will probably pursue college and we are confident they will be completely ready and equipped. Thanks Carmel

Picarzo Family’s Story

My husband works very very hard to support our family. When his job required that he submit an exemption for vaccine, mask, and test, we were not sure how to go about it. A friend referred us to Carmel. She provided us with a consultation where she decided who we needed to contact to get the exemptions my husband needed to keep his job and not comply to certain things we were not willing to budge on. The doctor she sent us to not only got my husband the exemptions but also provided us with the prevention protocol and ivermectin to keep on hand. The Picarzo family says thank you.

Michelle’s Story

Since working with Carmel, I have successfully launched a business, gone back to school to further my education, and began a new life after divorce, that honors me and my passions. She’s supportive, gentle, and compassionate yet gifted at helping me focus on what’s important to me, what stands in my way, and what next steps I want and need to take to accomplish my short term and long term goals. I feel heard, and that’s been vital to the coaching process. Her wisdom and creativity I’ve found practical and inspirational. I’ve found myself, after sessions, thinking, “That was worth every dollar.”

Carmel is able to strike a unique balance of careful listening with sharing her vast knowledge, experience, and ideas. She has been an exemplary professional coach. She exhibits a unique sense of interest in my journey and her insights and direction are always on target.

Carmel is warm, honest, insightful and fun to be around. She’s challenging when it’s needed and always supportive. Her words of wisdom gave me just the right nudge at the right moments to make challenging transitions in my career path. I can’t recommend her enough. You’ll be in great hands if you decide to work with her.

Lori’s story:

I have worked with Carmel as a travel writer for many years. I have hosted Carmel on press trips and FAM tours and have found her to be a pleasure to work with as a travel journalist.

She is a woman of ethics in both the business world and in her personal life and a true media professional who delivers what she promises.

Carmel has become a friend and colleague in the travel and tourism arena and is respected and admired by many of my CVB colleagues in travel and tourism across the nation.

I love how she coaches others who love to travel, how to break in to travel writing, and how to comp travel with professionalism. She is a well-respected source of information and has a passion for teaching others how to do what she loves to do, traveling for free while sharing her love and enthusiasm for writing, story-telling, travel and tourism.

Lacie’s Story

She helped me to figure out how to utilize my space in a much more efficient way. Carmel was VERY helpful and was VERY non-judgmental. I would recommend her to any friends that need help getting started in the right direction when it comes to organizational coaching.

Alicia’s Story

My daughter is my life. I am a single mom. If I lose my job it will be very hard to survive. My job said that I had to get the shot, get tested twice a week, or get fired. I coached with Carmel and she introduced me to a health care provider and to a pastor who wrote me an exemption for testing and the shot. My job has given me no hassles. My daughter and I owe a lot of gratitude to Carmel, Pastor J and to this doctor for standing for personal choice and liberty.

Mitchell Family’s Story

Originally we had planned to get Carmel’s help to learn how to set up a low cost homeschool for our girls as we prepared to move from California to South Carolina. We didn’t expect to make it a permanent decision. But even after moving during the end of the summer 2021, we have now decided to make it a long term educational choice. The girls have less anxiety, we are enjoying more opportunities to explore our new area through homeschooling outings to book stores, museums, science centers, and with a homeschool co-op we just joined that has introduced us to a support system here that we are blessed to have already bonded with. We are certain that if we had kept the girls in public school, they would not have made friends this easily. What started out as a lot of unknowns has blossomed into a new and better way of life for us all. My husband even comes home from work and gets to enjoy quality time playing with the girls or doing projects with them instead of being stressed out over homework.

Scott and Kathleen’s Story

CAUTION: before you decide to read her book or coach with Carmel, practice pulling your ripcord — you have no idea where this adventure could lead.
Thank you Carmel.

Tanya’s Story

When my son was diagnosed on the autism spectrum, I was lost. My dreams of a brilliant future for my little boy came crashing down in the reality of a diagnosis I knew little about and felt unprepared to deal with. Carmel Mooney’s expert homeschool and autism coaching helped us immensely through a difficult time adjusting and setting up our homeschool in a way that made sense to us. We were able to homeschool our three kids for pennies using the resources Carmel shared.

With her homeschool coaching and knowledge of the biomedical options available for autism, we were able to start a treatment path for our son that brings those dreams of his future back into possibility.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Carmel.

Jack’s Story:

Carmel and I first met in 1990 when she coached me in fitness and wellness and personal development. Over the years, Carmel coached me in my life goal to become a high school history teacher and believed in me and assisted me in overcoming huge challenges with my disabilities. Carmel is one of the most influential people in my personal success story.

A devoted wife and mother, talented writer, wonderful friend, and gifted travel writing instructor, she helps so many clients and students realize their goals of traveling the world for free, better health, and more meaningful lives. She knows how to encourage, inspire, motivate, educate, and empower like a good teacher should.

She is one of the most non-judgmental and accepting people I have ever known. She loves people right where they are, and she knows how to inspire them to be their very best. Carmel gives generously of her talents, resources, and time, not just to her clients and friends but to charities and to those less fortunate. I value that tremendously.

Cache’s Story

Having been through many of life’s trials and tribulations, I’ve confided in Carmel knowing 4 things:

1. That what I said to her in confidence was safely locked away.
2. That she would offer coaching that was grounded in Godly and biblical principles.
3. That she had personal experience to draw from.
4. Having been through many of her own trials, she had a strong understanding of mine. Her own experiences have given her a unique perspective of empathy for others.

I’m excited for the opportunities that her life coaching, through a biblical perspective, bring to me and others.

May God bless you on your journey through this experience of Christian life coaching with Carmel.

Kim’s Story

Carmel is finally someone I can truly be myself with. I’ve always felt so safe telling her what’s going on. When I first met her, I was experiencing a lot of anxiety and health challenges along with low self-esteem. Carmel’s knowledge and wisdom in functional nutrition is phenomenal. After learning a lot about gut health and fermented foods (kombucha, kefir, fermented vegetables, etc.) and essential oil blends from Carmel, my health and sleep have returned, and my anxiety is gone.

Carmel coaches holistically and also taught me about biblical deliverance and showed me how to spiritually break free from negative thought patterns, anxiety, and heaviness that had previously totally consumed and often paralyzed me. Most important, perhaps, is she taught me how to close the doors permanently, so that chapter of my life can remain behind me.

Carmel has helped me to become the stronger, more capable individual that she has seen in me all along. I look forward to every coaching session with Carmel.

Faith’s Story

Perhaps the most valuable tool I gained from being homeschooled was learning to think for myself. Let me explain.

When I was in 6th grade, I begged my mom to try public school. I couldn’t even make it one month before begging to be homeschooled again.

As a homeschooled child, I was treated like an adult. I was awarded with responsibilities that matured me and helped establish my self-worth and self-confidence as an individual.

In public school, I had to raise my hand to speak. Otherwise, I was censored and punished. I had to ask PERMISSION to go to the bathroom. To take care of feminine needs and bodily functions. Even my meals were scheduled, like a prison ward. Please tell me how this works in any kind of adult job environment. It doesn’t.

Furthermore, when I was verbally abused and even name-called by one of my teachers and reported it to my parents as well as the school principal, both the teacher and principal called me a liar and refused to acknowledge the abuse. That was the final straw for me that made me realize that I wanted to return to homeschooling, because I valued being treated as an individual human being. I valued thinking for myself and being taken care of seriously by other adults.

In that one month I tried public school, they tried to reverse and destroy all of that for me. I saw in firsthand in the way my peers had toxic relationships with one another and were a walking fuse of bottled down emotional trauma. Because unlike me, they had never been treated like an adult before and didn’t know how to use their voices. All they knew was survival mode and conformity, because the alternative was abuse. There was no morale character being built, and this was evident in how many of the students used cheating as an emergency mechanism when they were berated for not keeping up with the rest of the class, and engaging in disruptive behavior as a way of crying out for help and much-deserved attention.

If there is one ability that I believe every individual should have that will prove successful in the advancement of any career, relationship, family, and so forth, it is most certainly the ability to think for oneself. The most important life sustaining values that follow it, such as self-worth, self-confidence, and self-character, are imperative things to know in life. And I can certainly say that public school did not teach any of those things to me, but rather tried to destroy them, which is something I will never forgive the school system for. Nonetheless, I consider it a life-altering experience that I will passionately use to share with parents and children alike.

Laura and Johnny’s Story

Talk about an incredible life coach! My husband and I were absolutely thrilled to learn that the fabulous Carmel Mooney had hope, options and support for us for attaining medical exemptions for the vaccine, religious exemptions, mask exemptions, hydroxychloraquine, Ivermectin, continued Covid prophylaxis and treatment support, etc. Carmel is an absolute wealth of knowledge, information, contacts, and connections in this medical freedom warriors battle! We love her and look forward to continuing to work with her! Go freedom!!

Dan’s Story

I met Carmel around 2005 at various Travel Writing associations and then hosted her and her family on several subsequent press trips to the travel tourism destination that I represented.

She always conducted herself professionally & produced excellent media coverage for our destination so it was a pleasure to invite her back several times over the years.

As time went on, we became friends and she was very instrumental in coaching me through comping my own trip to Ireland which was the adventure of a lifetime.

I even ended up placing a story about it in one of Carmel’s online publications. I highly recommend Carmel’s instruction in comping/Travel Writing. Her focus is professionalism and integrity and I wish more travel writers, bloggers, and vloggers would learn from her.

Leal Family’s Story

Making the transition from public school to independent homeschooling was scary. Carmel took the fear away by showing us how to make it fun, flexible, and showing us how to create a homeschooling plan that was something we could live with, that fit into our life. My daughter actually looks forward to each day…no more tearful mornings! She can finally breathe without her face being muzzled. We can make our own medical choices. And she can even do most of her school work at her grandparents’ house when I am working. Carmel connected us to resources for free curriculum too. This was the best decision for our family.

Miller Family’s Story

We were very nervous when mandates put us in a position to choose between our jobs, school choice for our girls, and our religious convictions.

After medical and religious freedom coaching with Carmel, we were able to formulate a plan with the resources she provided. My wife and I were able to submit exemptions and not be forced to make a choice between our beliefs and our careers. The girls can now attend school without endangering their health.

Carmel had the resources and professional connections we needed and we are so relieved and grateful for her help.

Berardi Family’s Story

Bria had a severe vaccine reaction as a toddler and there was no way we could possibly subject her to more health issues or challenges with the vaccine mandates. Bria is also very creative and artistic and public school was not allowing her to develop her potential. Carmel empowered us to find a way where Bria goes to work with me one day per week, and she goes to her aunt’s house two days a week. She goes to another homeschool family 1-2 days per week. My husband works from home with her the other days. Bria is excelling now in all her subjects and she actually gets time to explore her passions and talents which motivates her more now than ever to get her least favorite subjects done. She volunteers with her aunt at a food closet one morning per week which is buidling her confidene and self esteem. Homeschooling has made our life easier and everyone happier.

Sue’s Story:

I first met Carmel back in 2002 while taking some of her courses on writing and publishing. She became instrumental as a writing coach in helping me to get several books published and in growing my world -wide deliverance ministry for demonic harassment victims. She later assisted me in editing and promoting my books with great success all over the globe.

Carmel has become a dear friend for over 15 years now. My husband and I even spend the holidays with her and her beautiful family. I have nothing but respect and admiration for her kindness, integrity, servant heart, and vast knowledge in deliverance, travel writing, and coaching.

Dawn’s Story

When our son was diagnosed on the autism spectrum. I found Carmel’s knowledge and expertise, along with her support, to be of great value in our search for solutions.

Carmel’s desire and burning passion to help families of autism is amazing and now that my son is recovered, I truly appreciate Carmel’s coaching, especially in the areas of nutrition, therapies, service dogs, and supplementation.

She has been available day and night to answer questions and offer support—when nobody else was. She is a relentless advocate for special needs families like ours.

Nikki’s Story

I was sure I was going to lose my internship if I could not provide a medical exemption before October 1. After medical freedom coaching with Carmel, I was referred to a doctor who was able to provide me with the exemption I needed before the deadline. At least for now, I can continue my internship and can still go after my dreams. Thank you Carmel. I am sending others in my program to you as well.

Joe’s Story

I was about ready to retire early and give up my career of over 28 years until I found out I had options from coaching with Carmel Mooney. She spent the time to help me determine the best course of action and then she referred me to professionals who provided me with the medical exemptions necessary to get HR off my back so I could just do my job. If you are feeling the heat and aren’t sure who to turn to, I recommend Carmel.

David’s Story

Carmel helped with connecting me to answers to several questions regarding health & life coaching. She helped me procure doctors to get right to the heart of my medical needs/exemptions. Otherwise I could have spent time going in circles and not getting what I needed. I highly recommend using Carmel in any realm of medical freedom. Five stars from me. ~ David

Dee’s Story

I was denied medical treatment at two medical centers so I contacted Carmel for Medical Freedom coaching. She connected me to a physician who saw me by phone and quickly got me a mask exemption. Then I was able to get the Medical treatment I needed without a face covering. I could breathe! Carmel is a valuable source of knowledge and resources.

Britt’s Story

I was really afraid that I was going to get fired from my job when my boss said I had two weeks to comply with the mandates. A co-worker introduced me to Carmel. She was patient, kind, and knowledgable. Pretty quickly she coodinated an appointment for me with a doctor who got me everything I needed to send to my boss. Now there are two of us at my job who are exercising our freedom because of Carmel’s help.

Simmons Family’s Story

Carmel has been an incredibly helpful and supportive coach for me and my family for over 12 years. She is a seemingly endless source of of knowledge, wisdom, and experience in countless areas including ASD and homeschooling with special needs.

Carmel has coached us in our ASD journey, and has limitless compassion, empathy, and understanding about what special needs parents and families face. A remarkable and dedicated mother, herself, she inspires me and encourages me in a profound way. Whether it’s navigating biomedical interventions and special needs resources, caring for aging parents, fermenting foods for gut health, organic gardening and cooking, special needs travel, homeschooling, ADA compliant service animals, or essential oils to mitigate stress and anxiety, she’s done it all and knows her stuff backwards and forwards.

I’ve personally known several parents and grandparents whose kids’ lives were saved by the service dogs she has trained for them, and I have seen several children recover from their ASD diagnosis from the interventions that Carmel guided them through. She was able to help us get a $14,000 grant for our son’s biomedical interventions in Maryland, and now he is no longer diagnosed on the spectrum and pulling straight A’s in school. There are no words to describe our level of gratitude.

Sherri’s Story

A few years ago, I took a (comped) travel writing class with Carmel. My main goal was to learn how to write text to accompany my photography.

Not only did her class help me with that, but I learned how to travel for free as a travel writer. It was one of the most valuable and fun classes I have ever taken.

She has been quite an inspiration to me through the years and she continues to amaze me with her talents.

Ashley’s Story

The stress of grad school was bad enough without the added stress of knowing that if I didn’t get an exemption that my school would accept, I would have to drop out and lose my scholarship. Carmel got me an appointment with someone who knew how to get me an exemption that would get accepted and honored. Within a few days of contacting Carmel, coaching with her, and then having an appointment with someone she referred me to, I had my exemption submitted to my school. Now I can focus on accomplishing my goal.

Kathy’s Story

When the Pandemic began, I was overwhelmed with information, and MISinformation. Carmel guided me and connected me to the resources I needed to make science-based, informed decisions about my health with regards to masks and vaccine choice. I will be eternally grateful for her knowledge, kindness, patience, and connections. Carmel is a Medical and Religious Freedom warrior.

Rose’s Story

I first made Carmel’s acquaintance from taking one of her amazing online courses in 2004 on how to become a travel writer and travel for free/comped.

I immediately put her easy-to-follow instruction into practice and began comping vacations to South Padre Island, Houston, San Antonio, and many other travel destinations for me and my family. I even learned from Carmel how to start my own column where I have comped travel and dining for over 14 years now, thanks to her teaching and coaching.

Eventually, Carmel and I met in person when she came to Texas on a comped travel writing trip with two of her daughters, and we became fast friends which led to me managing her book signings in South Texas and I was thrilled to facilitate her coming to teach a seminar for the Writers League of Texas where she taught dozens of us how to comp travel all over the world.

She is a wonderful mother, writer, and coach. I am honored to be her student and friend.

Mike’s Story

I’ve worked with Carmel for several years and found her to be a highly effective Life Coach. Whether you’re hoping to improve your personal or professional life, Carmel gives you the tools, encouragement, and insights, to help you set and attain reachable goals and stay on track.

Her gift is inspiring and helping you to get “unstuck”, and holding you accountable, while offering guidance and experience with just the right balance. Every session or class invested with Carmel will reap significant rewards. Learning how to travel around the world free of cost, while covering my journey on my blog and other outlets, has been priceless.

Robert & Nancy’s Story

We have trusted, and will continue to trust, Carmel’s experience and knowledge to help guide us. We obtained a chocolate lab Ema as a therapy dog for Lily (and the rest of the family). Ema is from a local breeder in our area, who had years before, worked with Carmel training service dogs, and who spoke very highly of Carmel and knew of her commitment to special needs kids and their families.

Victoria’s Story

My life was already great, but then I took Carmel Mooney’s “Been There Comped That” class and it got even better.

I learned how to get assignments as a travel writer and how to visit places for free with my family in exchange for writing articles about them.

I even broke into Radio doing travel segments.

Carmel is very knowledgeable about the subject, and presents it in a fascinating manner. It was the first class I ever took where I was so excited I couldn’t sleep that night.

I highly recommend this class and her coaching.
