#107 The Shadow Side of "Wellness" and Healing our Relationship to Food and Our Bodies with Orleatha Smith

Orleatha Smith, M.Ed is a serial entrepreneur, biologist and certified holistic lifestyle coach. Both of us spent years in the paleo/ancestral health world, had paleo food blogs, adhered to a strict paleo diet and worked in the wellness industry. We also both developed orthorexia and an extremely antagonistic relationship toward food and our bodies in the process. We discuss the complexities of our individual journeys and what it took to re-prioritize happiness, pleasure, and a fiercely honest, stress-free and individual approach to health and wellness.

How can we take ownership over the ways we participate in our own suffering? How can we move beyond victimization and into empowerment? How can we fix ourselves to fix the world? It’s time for new dreams, new stories and new futures…
