Review of the week: (1:41)
DebraAnn4290 “Love these women! Fun to have three hosts and get a wide range of views. One of my favorites to get each week.”
We have another super special show for you all today, but before we introduce our guest, let’s hear about our sponsor!
LDP's Sponsor - The Nutritional Therapy Association The NTA is an amazing organization that certified all three LDP co-hosts as Nutritional Therapy Consultants. We all highly recommend the NTC course or NTP (Nutritional Therapy Practitioner) course to anyone interested in pursuing an education in holistic health and learning how real, whole foods help heal the body from the inside out.
Visit www.nutritionaltherapy.com for more information and to download a registration packet!
Intro: Cassy Joy Garcia, Fed & Fit (3:10)
She’s no stranger to our listeners as we’ve mentioned her on several episodes. In fact, this lovely lady was each of our top pick for the Paleo nutrition blogger that we would be a fly on the wall because she has such a wonderful, positive energy and is just plain FUN. We believe we can confidently say this after watching her snapchats and getting a peek into her daily life.
Cassy Joy Garcia is the author of the brand new book “Fed & Fit: A 28-day food & fitness plan to jumpstart your life with over 175 squeaky clean paleo recipes“. She’s also the creator of the Fed & Fit Project - an online program that’s opening soon, the voice behind the Fed & Fit podcast as well as the blog, fedandfit.com. Cassy has her bachelor in science from Texas A&M and is a certified nutrition consultant.
We also love her because she’s the furmom to her adorable & sweet dog, Gus, a self-proclaimed “determined optimist,” and a San Antonio resident and Aggie cheerleader!
Welcome to the show, Cassy!
Let’s dive in!
1. We know you just finished sharing this story, what probably feels like a billion times on your recent book tour with Diane Sanfilippo, but can you fill in our listeners on how you reached this point and perhaps the most powerful transformation on your journey? (4:55)
Cassy’s Fed + Fit Episode 74 - The Healthiest Ways to Measure Progress
2. You started the Fed & Fit Project as an online program, so we are curious, what inspired you to turn it into and write a hardcopy book version? (14:35)
3. Writing a book is a pretty intense and brutal process, but as the determined optimist, we want to hear what was your favorite part of working on the book and how you are feeling now that it’s in people’s hands? (17:39)
4. We LOVE the book. It’s really beautiful - the recipes are tasty & delicious, and really creative. Spill the beans… HOW do you come up with these wonderful recipes? (19:45)
Cassy mentioned being inspired by Jen’s Gone Paleo – and it’s still a live blog if you want to check it out!
5. In reading through your book you talk about how you spend a lot of time doing mindset coaching maybe more so than nutrition consulting and you decided to focus the first pillar of your 28-day program on mindset. Your most recent podcast episode is about the benefit of the doubt and you also had a lovely rant about on snapchat about being positive and happy - this is a topic that I know the three of us and our listeners are really interested in - so you can talk a bit about why mindset is so important to health and why you chose to focus on it first and foremost in your program. (23:11)
