Summary
Wellness advocate, self-taught chef, and New York Times best-selling author Danielle Walker joins Morgan for a candid conversation about grain-free living and the limitations of Western medicine. Danielle’s road to healthful eating began with an autoimmune disease diagnosis in her early 20s, after which she discovered a grain-free Paleo diet plan that would inspire five successful cookbooks. In this podcast, Danielle shares her recipe testing process, current eating routine, and all-time favorite cookbook. Morgan and Danielle also discuss the impact of elevated stress levels, stress-reduction techniques, and how EDMR therapy (typically used for post-trauma recovery) can help.
