Welcome to Episode 68 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
In this special episode, I’m joined by two of my grown children, Alex and Peter, as we take a fun trip down memory lane. Together, we explore what it was like for them to grow up with a mom who is passionate about health, food, diet, exercise, and managing stress.
This candid conversation offers a unique glimpse into our family's journey, highlighting how my career as a health coach has influenced their lives. Alex and Peter share their early memories, reflecting on how a health-conscious environment shaped their views on wellness and the challenges and benefits that came with it.
They also offer advice to others on how to balance health and wellness in a supportive, non-overwhelming way. Whether you're a parent striving to create a healthy environment for your family or simply curious about the impact of health coaching on family dynamics, this episode is filled with insights, laughter, and real talk.
It's a perfect blend of personal stories and practical advice that you won’t want to miss. Be sure to listen, subscribe, and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform, and connect with me on Instagram or through my website to continue the conversation.

My favorite evening drink (or dessert) is Organifi Gold Chocolate. It is like a "healthy dark hot chocolate". With reishi mushrooms and lemon balm extract for calming and relaxing, it's perfect in the afternoon or evening. Gold also has superfoods like tumeric and ginger. It's nonGMO, vegan and organic.
