Episode 161 - Nutritional Wellness: Prioritizing Whole Foods, Protein and Holistic Meals w/ Liv Kaplan

Continuing with our 8 dimensions of wellness series, we are joined by Liv Kaplan to talk all things nutrition! Although nutrition technically falls under the physical realm, we felt like food was such an important aspect that it deserved its entire own episode. Liv has been a wish list guest of ours since the beginning so getting to have her on the show is truly a dream come true! We ask her all the questions we've been eager to hear her take on.

She is a holistic nutritionist (BSc) and self-proclaimed healthy chef. She specializes in sugar-free and gut-friendly recipes with a focus on the magic of real food. When it comes to wellness, it's about what you can have, not what you can't.
