    Andrea Nakayama is a Functional Medicine Nutritionist and the founder of the Functional Nutrition Alliance. Functional Nutrition serves the needs of the individual. It recognizes each person's unique capabilities for making the diet and lifestyle modifications that foster the physiological and psychological shifts that enable their body to cultivate its healing potential. Functional Nutrition does not exist in isolation of other health or medical support, but in tandem with it. Over two decades ago, Andrea's husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor and given 6 months to live while she was pregnant with their first and only child. In response, she doubled down on an area she was passionate about – nutrition – in an attempt to extend his lifespan beyond his 30s.  They made it over two years, he got to meet his son, and in the wake of his death, she discovered that she had developed Hashimoto's. Andrea kept on professionally with her nutrition and functional medicine path and shares with all of us this way of managing our health. She knows that a functional nutrition approach is the answer to our healthcare crisis, both for individuals and for society at large.

Why would she want to write about her biggest pain point? Dr. Sylvia admits that she spent the majority of her life feeling Lonely AF.

    Adam Gopnik: True Happiness , & Achievement vs. Accomplishment

    Adam Gopnik's newest book was released in April 2024 called All That Happiness Is: Some words on what Matters and takes a look at our society's endless obsession with Striving. Gopnik says society is obsessed with achievement. Young people are pushed toward the “best” school they can get into. Adults push themselves toward the highest-paying, most prestigious jobs, seeking promotions and public recognition. The result is not so much a rat race as a rat maze, with no way out. Except one: to choose accomplishment over achievement. A staff writer for the New Yorker since 1986, Adam Gopnik was born in Philadelphia and raised in Montreal. His first essay in The New Yorker, "Quattrocento Baseball" appeared in May of 1986 and he served as the magazine's art critic from 1987 to 1995. That year, he left New York to live and write in Paris, where he wrote the magazine's “Paris Journal” for the next five years.  He has written 14 books. In the past five years, Gopnik has engaged in many musical projects, working both as a lyricist and libretto writer. Future projects include a new musical with Scott Frankel. Heather and Adam talk about true happiness, and feeling a true sense of accomplishment vs constantly striving to achieve, the society we live in and much more, including the origins of Central Park in NYC.
