Primary Food

Can you really enjoy food if you're constantly dieting? We discuss dieting vs. simply focusing on getting highest quality food, having pleasure about it and loving your body as it is vs. the mindset of "when I achieve the perfect body, then I will be lovable."

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Join us for a World Tour Taste Test and get to know ice cream made with cacao and vanilla grown in exotic rainforests around the world. Choctál’s eight origins come from places like Costa Rica, Indonesia, Ghana and Papua New Guinea. Each origin tastes significantly different than the next. Choctál is a single-origin ultra premium ice cream company that produces four varieties of chocolate and four varieties of vanilla and is known for being the only single-origin ice cream company, a concept usually found in coffee. Each type of ice cream is made from a single variety of cacao or vanilla beans, creating more complex flavor than traditional ice cream.

I was a vegan, and a health coach when I developed my cancer. It happens. But, why? Fellow health coach, Christine Walsh Egan, Hay House author of The Healthy Girl’s Guide to Breast Cancer, comes in to talk about her “unthinkable one-year journey,” something I, and too many, can relate to. Cancer stories usually start with some kind of struggle or fight. This story starts with a song. “You may ask yourself, well, how did I get here? You may say to yourself, my God, what have I done?” These words rang true for Christine Egan. Many questions and stories circulate about cancer. Are you telling yourself you are a victim of cancer? Are you worried the cancer will come back? Are you stuck in the role of being sick? Egan made a conscious choice to tell a different story. The Healthy Girl’s Guide to Breast Cancer is part memoir and part guide revealing the all-too-true story of cancer in this country with a healthy twist. Rest assured-this is not a cancer story; it’s a story about health and wellness!
