The Doctor Dietitian Collab talk all about the word fat and it's taboo stigma. How does the "F' word make you feel? The duo will discuss how fat impacts our health and the role it plays in our overall well being. Our fearless dietitian also talks about fat as an essential macronutrient. What types of fat are healthy? How much do we need? Why do we need it?

There's also the coolest "F" word- FUN! Hannah may or may not reference her camp counselor days deep frying some unusual foods. And they talk butter- SO. MUCH. BUTTER. Get ready for a fabulous conversation about the frightening "F" word.

How do you get to the top of where you want to be and stay there? Back up, how do you even decide you want to start climbing? The Doctor and Dietitian duo want to empower you to enter that elusive space where you feel fearless and powerful, where you can completely trust yourself to just let go, make yourself a priority, get to your pinnacle, and realize the joy is in the climb and the view is pretty magical.

You want to change? Are you scared, anxious, exhilarated, or paralyzed by idea of change? Not everyone gets the opportunity to be stressed by the potential to achieve exceptional things, but you do. Decide. Commit. Act. Succeed. Oprah said "every right decision I have ever made has come from my gut an every wrong decision I've ever made was a result of me not listening."

Trust your gut, pun intended.
