The Real Dish

In this episode of "The Real Dish," I address the energy challenges women face in midlife. I share my personal journey, including overcoming a significant injury and competing in a bikini bodybuilding competition. I identify "energy vampires" like stress, poor sleep, unhealthy diets, and negative relationships that drain vitality. I offer practical tips for boosting energy naturally, such as regular exercise, eating energizing foods, and considering supplements. Emphasizing a positive mindset and supportive relationships, I aim to empower women to reclaim their energy and pursue their passions through informed lifestyle choices and self-care practices.

When I interviewed Elwin Robinson, the founder and CEO of Genetic Insights for episode 124, it was a real eye opener. While we often focus on blood tests and scans to find out what is impacting our health, they don't tell the whole story. The important information our genetic blueprint holds is key to understanding our strengths and challenges.

He was an otherwise healthy guy who experienced a MAJOR medical crisis and doctor visit after another, couldn't figure out what was wrong until he dove into his DNA and got the answers he was looking for so he could get his life back.

After hearing his story, I had to get a test for myself and what I learned SHOCKED me...things that I've never heard from my doctor or had show up in a blood test.

Now, in full transparency, I'm sharing my results with you in this episode 128 of The Real Dish in real time - unedited.

Welcome to "The Real Dish," your go-to podcast for tips, stories, and strategies to live a healthier, happier life. I'm your host, Chef Mareya, and today we're diving into a powerful topic that can truly transform your approach to health and wellness: the importance of mindset in changing to healthy habits. I'm calling it the caramel sauce to health because it's what tops off all the good habits and makes them sticky. We've all been there—wanting to adopt healthier habits but finding it difficult to stick with them. Whether it's eating better, exercising regularly, or managing stress, the challenge often lies not in the actions themselves but in our mindset. Today, we'll explore why mindset is so crucial and how you can cultivate a mindset that supports lasting, positive change.

FoodPreneurs: A new series on The Real Dish

As a 30+ year veteran of the food industry, and an inventor of a brand and product line, I love meeting other entrepreneurs and learning about their stories, what makes them tick and what they would do if they had to start all over again.

With that, we're starting a new monthly series called 'FoodPreneurs' on The Real Dish where we'll dive deep into the journeys of visionary founders. We'll explore the stories behind the brands that are changing the way we eat and think about food. From humble beginnings to groundbreaking innovations, join us as we uncover the passion, perseverance, and palate-pleasing creations of these foodpreneurs. Whether you're a foodie, an aspiring entrepreneur, or just curious about the culinary world, get ready to be inspired and informed.

In our first episode of this series, I'm dishing with Martin Pamensky, CEO and President of Stanmar International - the company behind the brands Ceres juices and Simply Delish - and how a South African reinvented the instant dessert category to make America's favorites guilt-free.
