What We Do
I'm a naturopathic doctor who is a professional speaker about health and nutrition. I'm also a cookbook author for quick, easy, and healthy meals. I speak to adults about health concerns, especially autoimmunity and inflammation. My brand is one of natural, state-of-the-art, complimentary healthcare. I am not a mainstream doctor -- I'm more like Dr. Andrew Weil. I'm all about healthy foods and living a healthy lifestyle and being in the vanguard of emerging technologies and techniques for living a healthy life.

Color Preferences
UPDATE: Thanks for all the submissions so far!!
Now that I've seen a lot of efforts, I'm realizing a couple of universal thoughts:
- I don't like the bright candy colors. I'd like the colors to feel a little more grown-up and not so Jolly Rancher. More plum and pumpkin-ish, for example.
- When used, I would like the images to feel integrated with my name, and not completely separated. Not necessarily intertwined, but somehow arranged together in space so they make a cohesive unified logo and less like a name typed.
- While the first and last names should be equally weighted, Yarnell needs to be in all caps (and kerned between the Y and the A) or else it can be hard to sight read. Elizabeth, on the other hand, is a word that is easily recognized so could be in all lowercase, in cursive, etc. In fact, it would be cool if it was so distinctive that it could even stand alone at times.
-Looking at my little pot image in these trials has made me realize that I like the version without the salt and pepper shakers better for this purpose.

My little pot image is currently kiwi colored, though feel free to change it or work with it. Colors should not be too girly, but still feminine. Colors of foods might be good. Happy and hopeful, but not frivolous or silly. Modern and futuristic, but not cold or harsh. Professional but not intimidating. There should be a warmth to the tones. Maybe purple with the kiwi green with orange accents? Surprise me!

Our Ideas & Additional Information
It would be great to be able to use the logo with or without the additional pot image. The main part of the logo should be my name: Elizabeth Yarnell. I've included several file types of my little pot with and without the salt & pepper shakers.
