In this episode I talk about my journey from eating Paleo (and eventually Paleo Keto) to Plant Based.
I open up and explain how this came to be.
How I started listening to my body again and giving it what it was asking for.
Why I feel like this is important and it impacts everything I focus on.
Key Points and Takeaways

For those of us with chronic illness and/or autoimmune conditions, the holistic wellness folks on the internet like to make us feel there’s only one way to address this. Spoilers: There isn’t. The best way is what feels good to you.
This is also your permission slip to make changes. If you feel like something isn’t working for you, you have the power to make a change. Whether that’s related to diet, lifestyle, exercise, you are in control. You can make changes so that something feels more aligned with you.
