I'm joined on this episode by city slicker turned farm girl Jenny Hendricks, who shares her incredible journey from being sickly, weak, and on the path to Death's Door, only to discover the power of eating as nature intended, which not only healed her various illnesses, but has also allowed her to make her life's mission helping others with seemingly undiagnosable ailments.
In this episode we also talk about:
* Jenny's brush with near death, including hair loss, rapid and unexplained weight loss, and how doctors couldn't tell her what was wrong with her. * Her journey into (and out of) veganism as a way of restoring her health * "You are not just what you eat, you are whatever you EAT eats!" How animal protein quality as well as fruit and vegetable quality can potentially wreak havoc on your hormones - whether you're a man or a woman. * The woman who was infertile for many years - until she improved her food quality and (in her early 40s) finally gave birth to a healthy baby boy! * How Jenny uses kettlebells to stay strong, limber, and lean for her long and arduous days working on her farm * Much, much more

I'm joined on this episode by athletic coach and fitness revolutionary Dave Daglow.
In this episode we talk all about Dave's back story - from up-and-coming athlete to severely injured and in desperate need of figuring out how to put himself back together again.
From this humble beginning, he came to a series of startling realizations about his own body, that of other athletes, and the entire notion of exercise as we think about it - and from there he set out to get people back in touch with their TRUE athletic nature, one mover at a time.
