Dear listener,

In this episode, I interview my dear friend and fellow Registered Dietitian, Alie Grace. Not only do we share a few stories from our time together in Columbus, Ohio as Dietetic Interns, but she also shares her story of a past battle with an eating disorder that has now come to shape her career path and inspire her to be the Dietitian she wished she once had.

After experiencing an injury that put her career as a collegiate runner oh hold, Alie was encouraged to try out weight lifting by a trainer at her hometown gym. She soon discovered a newfound love for a sport that would instill a sense of strength (both mentally & physically) and self-confidence that would continue to aid in her recovery journey.

In April 2018, Alie competed in her first NPC Bikini Competition and continues to feel strong and confident in her own body, as well as proud of all that she is capable of.

I love this girl and am SO grateful to call her a friend. If you resonate with her message and want to see more of what she shares, follow her on Instagram: @dearalie, visit her website: www.aliegracenutrition.com, and check out her Facebook page: Alie Grace Nutrition.

Yours Chewly with gratitude,

Claire

Dear listener,

In this episode, you get a front-row seat to a stellar conversation between myself and one of my dear friends, Lucy Call. I had the pleasure of meeting (and living with!) Lucy in college, and she has been one of the most positive, uplifting humans in my life ever since.

Lucy is a health and confidence coach, radial self-love advocate, and *almost* Registered Dietitian! At her business, Alive to Thrive, she leads women to personal freedom through radical self-love, fearless adventure, and a healthy lifestyle.

Tune in today to learn from our discussion on primary food vs. secondary food, the importance of self-care, and how to give yourself permission to step into wellness that extends beyond nutrition.

To find inspiring stories of self-love and tips on how to make yourself a priority, check out Lucy's website at http://www.alivetothrivehealth.com/, and follow her fun on Instagram, @iam.lucycall :)

Yours Chewly with gratitude,

Claire

Dear time-seekers,

Do you ever find yourself saying "I don't have time?" If so, this excuse is ruining your relationship with yourself and others, as well as your progress with your nutrition + fitness goals. In this episode, we cover 3 ways in which you can shift your internal speak from "I don't have time" to "I'll make time."

Yours Chewly,

Claire
