March 18, 2020 Angela Mavridis On Optimzing Her Health Through an Ancestral Eating Style and Creating TRIBALÍ Foods Through Sourcing Sustainable and Delicious Ingredients
Today on the podcast we sit down with Angela Mavridis founder of TRIBALÍ Foods! As a kid in her grandmother’s kitchen in Greece, Angela discovered the nurturing power of real foods. Angela saw her grandmother happily cooking, a naturally paleo diet, from scratch — using only real organic, local, and heirloom foods. Ironically, back in the states, Angela’s dad owned a fast-food hamburger drive-thru serving up burgers, fries, and shakes. With a busy schedule, the family ordered dinner from their restaurant more often than not. On her quest for healthier eating, Angela became a vegetarian at the age of 13.
As an adult, She was constantly bloated and tired -- and was suffering from a variety of unidentifiable health issues that were masked by modern medicine. She decided to go back to school and become a holistic nutritionist -- and after years of fueling her body with endless combinations of protein powders, shakes, supplements, and bars, she decided to return to her original way of eating when growing up in Greece.
After 35-years as a vegetarian, she came to realize that clean animal meats paired with real, ancestral ingredients made her feel better physically and emotionally. Within days, her gut and digestive issues subsided and her body started to heal. Making it her mission to capture the magic of her grandmother’s kitchen in a way that fits into today’s busy lifestyles, Angela got cooking -- and her business was born. Today, TRIBALÍ Foods seeks and sources 100% organic high-quality animal meats — from grass fed and grass finished pastured beef to free-range chicken, humanely raised pork, and wild-caught seafood — to create a flavorful, versatile, and nutrient-dense centerpieces for wholesome, satisfying meals. On this episode, Angela takes us through her incredible personal journey as we discuss all things food, diet, meat industry, and TRIBALÍ.

March 11, 2020 Grigore Madikians of Gaffer & Child on Skin Care, Self Care and Radiating In the World
On this episode we sit down with Grigore Madikians the founder and creator of Gaffer & Child, a company that uses clean skincare to inspire mindful living. Grigore shares his personal story of struggling with problem skin and the harsh chemical products he was given as treatment. Using these products ignored his own core beliefs around sustainability and how he wanted to treat his body, but was unable to find an alternative -- so he started to create his own natural skin care products!
In the last two decades of making his own natural skin-care products, he has learned so much about the farmers who sustainably grow the ingredients, the health and safety of people using the products, how we improve our local economies when we buy from businesses within our own communities, and how we show respect to the creatures we share this planet with by not using them in product testing.
In this conversation we discuss the unique Gaffer & Child products, his commitment to self care rituals through skincare and beyond, and so much more! We can’t wait for you to hear this conversation -- and also have a special discount code for our listeners.

We personally love the hydrating serum and are excited for you to try these products too!

January 29, 2020 Catherine McCord Talks "Smoothie Project: The 28-Day Plan to Feel Happy and Healthy No Matter Your Age" & Easy, Fun, and Affordable Ways to Get Maximum Nutrients
Today on the podcast we have the lovely Catherine McCord of popular brand, Weelicious, back on the show to discuss her brand new book: Smoothie Project: The 28-Day Plan to Feel Happy and Healthy No Matter Your Age. We talk about how she used her culinary expertise to create over 100 smoothie recipes for people from 3 to 103 to enjoy.

Catherine was inspired by the healing power of smoothies when she incorporated them into her son’s diet, after he was deeply suffering from an illness. Within weeks she saw a drastic improvement in his health and realized that something as simple as starting your day with a smoothie can provide essential micronutrients that many Americans are often deficient in. What we love about this book is how accessible smoothies can be for anyone wanting to improve health in a budget friendly way.

On this episode we discuss Catherine’s journey into the wellness world, the nutritional benefits of smoothies and go deeper into her newest book. If you’d like to hear even more about her personal journey as an author, as founder of Weelicious and One Potato Box, the meal delivery kit service, please check out our first episode with Catherine from April of 2019. We had such a fun time chatting with Catherine and hope you enjoy the conversation!
