Creating A Parallel Society

My guest today is functional nutritionist, author and Eat Naked Kitchen founder Margaret Floyd Barry.  Margaret speaks with us about the transformational power that happens when we tend to our health by looking at our entire environment. She takes us on her personal journey, starting with observing how her mother's health needs were treated by conventional medicine to today as she works to reverse autoimmune disease in her professional life. She personally experienced the power of food in health, and has taken that knowledge and expanded her perspective so that she now helps both clients and other practitioners implement whole life healing strategies that include everything from sleep to stress. You can find more about her approach to food at https://www.eatnakednow.com and her practice at https://restorativewellnesssolutions.com. 

Penelope Mavor, founder of the Earth Converse nature based leadership collaborative, invites us into a world where sitting alone (and maybe naked) in the forest can be a pathway to unlocking our incredible potential while bringing us wholeness. We discuss the conventions we don’t need, and the practices we do. She shares that through connection with ourselves, each other, the ground under our feet and the very air we breath we can heal the world within ourselves, and then use our inner truth to bring our limitless creative power to the world outside.

Lorraine Smith is my inaugural guest on my "Creating a Parallel Society" podcast. For as long as I've known her (25 years and counting), Lorraine has been forging her own path. Whether it's spinning her own yarn, running an artisanal paper craft business, completing her own five day ultramarathon, or informing corporate strategy to make tremendous shifts possible, Lorraine doesn't let old limitations get in the way of the new. Join me as we talk about everything from the absurdity of garbage day to what ultramarathoning and redesigning Google have in common.  To learn more, check out her website, www.blorrainesmith.com, read her articles at https://blorrainesmith.medium.com/ or subscribe to her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ0TySIG-rlnZLEYp1nl6KQ.
