236: Healthy Eating Habits for Balanced Eating with McKel (Hill) Kooienga, Nutrition Stripped

Ever heard of a Lazy Genius? The term, coined by author Kendra Adachi, is someone who is a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don’t. It’s the process of naming what matters to you at any given time and then making decisions accordingly, allowing you to sift through what to focus on and what to let go of. When this game-changing concept is applied to our kitchens, it allows us to find long-term success in cooking and eating at every life stage. Listen in to this engaging interview with self-proclaimed professional permission-giver and kind, big sister of the internet, for a sneek peek into her newest book and why it’s a reference guide chock full of frameworks, tools, and other practical and inspiring tips that people can reach for again and again no matter the season of life.    Show notes and more at https://realfoodwholelife.com/fge/ Sign up for weekly emails from The Good List http://bit.ly/feelgoodlist  Get the free Capsule Meal Plan https://realfoodwholelife.com/subscribe/
