When we start paying more attention to what we are doing while we are doing it, we open to our power of choice. Whether in our sport, our food choices, relationships, or profession, being more mindful puts us ahead of our patterns and back in charge of our lives. Today, our guest is Chef AJ, a fantastic example of someone who has overcome significant obstacles, shifted non-serving habits and is back in charge. She has most definitely ridden the waves of life, highs, and lows, traumas, and joys all to find herself serving a great purpose in the realm of nutrient-dense, whole plant foods. She has helped thousands of people transform their relationship with food, and she has a rich story of transformation to share. We hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoyed recording it.
