We're a physiological species who wants to feel good and hates feeling bad.
Imagine transforming your relationship with food, body, and the planet. That's exactly what Sherry Strong, Food Philosopher, Chef, and Nutritionist, shares in this episode of 'Comeback Journeys in Recovery'. Hosted by David Shadbolt, this conversation dives deep into Sherry's inspiring journey from founding a cooking school to becoming a prominent voice in holistic health and nutrition. Sherry's philosophy is simple yet profound: ditch the processed foods and embrace real, nourishing ingredients.
She talks about how her approach to food helped her overcome her own struggles with addiction and compulsion, particularly with alcohol and sugar. By making small, manageable changes—like swapping out processed ice cream for a local, homemade version—Sherry found a path to better health that she now shares with others. Throughout the episode, Sherry discusses the destabilizing effects of a highly processed diet on both mind and body.
She explains how our natural desire to feel good can lead to unhealthy behaviors, including substance abuse. But Sherry believes in starting before you're ready and making incremental changes that can lead to significant improvements in well-being. Whether it's adding a salad to your daily routine or making a hearty, nourishing soup, these small steps can make a big difference. Sherry also touches on her broader mission to educate and coach others in developing healthier relationships with food.
Her work extends beyond individual coaching to teaching nutritionists and holistic food enthusiasts how to become food coaches themselves. This ripple effect has allowed her to reach a wider audience and help more people find their way to health through real food. This episode is a treasure trove of practical tips and heartfelt advice for anyone looking to improve their relationship with food and overall well-being.
Sherry's insights are not just informative; they're actionable, making it easier for listeners to take those first steps toward a healthier life.
