Kennedy is a registered dietitian and 1st time mama, married to a 4th generation dairyman in central Minnesota. Kennedy didn't grow up in agriculture, but met her husband at 18 years old and morphed into the most beautiful combination of farmers wife and dietitian, a true compliment. Kennedy uses her personal experience with PCOS and hormonal imbalances to educate farm and ranch wives across America on how to care for their bodies and their reproductive health using a foods first approach.
