Happy Happy December,
HEY FAM HEYYYY! Let’s talk WATERFOUL in another episode in our sacred fats series! Sit tight, grab a PSL or a hot cocoa, and enjoy this episode!
As always, we want to thank you for all of your support, in all the ways!
Sources and what’s discussed in the pod:
1. The Power of Place and Community
Karina and Asia begin the episode by acknowledging the lands they inhabit. Karina shares her appreciation for the Tongva people, while Asia reflects on her roots in Cheyenne, Ute, and Arapaho lands. This practice of honoring indigenous peoples not only enriches their connection to the earth but also emphasizes the importance of community in healing and wellness. By recognizing the land, listeners are encouraged to consider their own relationships with the places they call home.
2. Reflections on Personal Growth
As the conversation progresses, Asia discusses her recent presentation on "meat as medicine" at the Colorado Ayurvedic Conference. To her surprise, many attendees admitted that their veganism was performative, revealing a hunger for authentic nourishment. This moment of vulnerability among participants highlights the ongoing journey of understanding what truly nourishes our bodies and souls. Asia emphasizes the importance of being open to new philosophies and letting go of rigid beliefs about food and wellness.
3. The Creativity of Cooking
Karina shares her recent culinary adventures, illustrating how creativity can flourish even in moments of exhaustion. During her menstrual cycle, she found herself inspired to cook late into the night, creating delicious dishes such as apple chips and blackberry mint limeade. This creativity not only serves as an expression of her femininity but also acts as a preventative measure against seasonal depression. Through her experiences, listeners are reminded of the power of food and creativity in nurturing both body and mind.
4. The Importance of Animal Fats
In a segment focused on animal fats, Asia introduces the medicinal properties of waterfowl fats, particularly goose and duck fat. She explains how these fats contain omega-3 fatty acids, which promote heart health and smooth blood flow. Moreover, Asia delves into the significance of vitamins A and K2 found in these animal fats, highlighting their roles in immunity and bone health. This discussion serves as a reminder to embrace traditional foods that have sustained cultures for generations.
