This is episode 41 and today I’m here with Deena Barselah talking about food.

Deena is a Holistic and Integrative Health Coach, a wife, and a mom to 4-year-old Zeke.  Deena’s mission is to support mothers to thrive by leaning on simple, natural, and time-tested approaches to health and wellness.  Her journey into holistic health began in her late 20s when she took a closer look at her several chronic health issues and found that a whole-body approach supported her healing process in a way conventional medicine never could.  She questions the mainstream in many areas and gets real on topics such as chronic illness, marriage, mental health, miscarriage, and grief.  Connect with Deena on Instagram and Facebook to feel your best and take the overwhelm out of wellness for your family.
