Meghan McGee's interest in cooking for wellness was sparked by her desire to create inclusive and nourishing meals for community gatherings. This led her to the Nutrition Therapy Institute and the Natural Food Chef program. Listen in as Meghan talks about the inspiring path that led her to cooking for wellness, the transformative experience of the Natural Food Chef program, and her virtual cooking classes! About Meghan: I was blessed to have found a passion for health at an early age. I studied Health and Wellness Promotion and Nutrition in college and graduated with a Bachelor of Science. After graduating, I was unsure how I was going to use my degree and I loved all the knowledge I could get, so I enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and got a health coach certification a year later. I dabbled in health coaching and other wellness jobs, but nothing really filled my cup. In my early 20's I was diagnosed with Lyme disease after many years of searching for answers. During that time, I dove into all the holistic health and nutrition information I could find and built a foundation for myself. Looking back, I am grateful for those experiences because they really fueled my journey to NTI. I graduated from the NFC program in the spring of 2021 and I now teach cooking classes at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, and I offer private cooking classes in my clients' homes. I have a deep-rooted passion for slow food and I aspire to continue sharing that passion with my community and beyond.  Meg's Nourished Kitchen **Timestamps for the topics discussed can be found on this episode's NTI PodTalk page.

She defines the four metabolic types, why knowing your type is critical, and gives practical strategies for preventing and reversing liver disease. In closing, she shares her next mission: Helping women embrace menopause with humor and love their older bodies! KEY MOMENTS IN THE PODCAST “You can go through so many different versions of yourself. Eventually you're gonna land on who you're meant to be. And sometimes you gotta go through all those versions to figure it out.” “A lot of times we'll take on different things in our life because we didn't have it. So we take that on as a goal to give back what was not given to us.” “When the view doesn't change, you can't necessarily grow. It's the stuff that makes you uncomfortable where you're forced to learn about something you didn't know before.” “1 out of every 4 people has liver disease and probably don't know it because there's no symptoms. We think it's closer to 30% of individuals who have it. It's very much in line with type-two diabetes and insulin resistance. It is an epidemic and a silent killer.” KRISTIN KICKPATRICK, MS, RDN BIO With over 25 years experience in health management, Kristin is an award-winning dietitian, best-selling author, nationally recognized speaker, and founder and president of KAK Consulting, LLC,.

Welcome back to the NTI PodTalk Board Exam series! In Part Three, we hear from NTI graduate, Valerie Federwitz. Valerie took the exam last year and provides some great personal insights and advice for those who are also thinking about getting Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition®. Valerie and Dianne discuss navigating the board exam, study tools, advice for those considering taking the exam, and more!  Valerie Federwitz was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI and earned an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Concordia University – Wisconsin.  From 2003-2020 she and her husband David lived in Northern Ghana where they served as missionaries with Lutheran Bible Translators.  During this time they also raised their 4 children, who are now ages 15-20.

I am a Nutrition Therapist Master, Natural Food Chef, Reiki Energy Healer, and Yoga and Mindfulness instructor, with an in-depth knowledge of the biology of yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda. My journey with Holistic Nutrition Therapy started as a search for solutions to my hormonal imbalances, PCOS pain, monthly PMS pain, hyperthyroidism, cystic acne, low energy, and hair loss. I knew early on that prescribed medications for my conditions were making my symptoms even worse. Then I started searching for information about holistic options. I came across Nutrition Therapy. As I started eating more whole foods, organic and pasture-raised foods, I slowly started feeling changes in my health. So I decided to go full-on board and joined the Nutrition Therapy Institute as a student. As I proceeded with the classes I practiced and applied what I learned to myself and my family. Now I am in my best health ever. In 2022, I earned my certification in holistic Nutrition Therapist Master (NTM), and Natural Food Chef (NFC) from the Nutrition Therapy Institute of Arvada, Colorado."

Dr. Glen Harrison is the leading functional medicine expert and practitioner at Center of Functional Medicine in Westminster, CO. Listen in as he and Dianne discuss his root cause approach, the relationships he builds with his clients, and more!  “Prior to enrolling in chiropractic college, I worked in the geological exploration sector of the mining industry. This gave me the opportunity to work on projects in extremely remote locations around the world including the northern tip of Greenland, the Tian Shan mountain range in central Asia, and the Svalbard Islands in the Norwegian Sea. My inspiration to pursue a career in chiropractic came from an injury that jeopardized both my ability to work in the mining sector and my long-term physical health. After pursuing many forms of treatment without experiencing any relief in my symptoms, my father suggested that I seek chiropractic care. In addition to traditional adjustments, the chiropractor provided me with conditioning, stretching, and nutritional guidance, and my pain began to subside. After experiencing the frustration associated with constantly feeling unwell and the relief I achieved after receiving comprehensive care, I decided to dedicate my life to helping others achieve similar results. Throughout the course of my education, I gained an even greater appreciation for the potential health gains that functional medicine and proper nutrition can provide, especially for patients with impaired biochemistry. This simple principle always stands true: if human biochemistry is even slightly impaired true health and longevity cannot be achieved. These basic laws of human physiology can never be avoided.” Center of Functional Medicine Website Podcast YouTube Channel Facebook **Timestamps for the topics discussed can be found on this episode's NTI PodTalk page.

Maddie LeBrun is a registered nurse and a graduate of both our programs - Nutrition Therapist Master and Natural Food Chef. Listen in as she talks about her desire and hope to bridge the gap between conventional and holistic healthcare. "My name is Maddie LeBrun and I've had the pleasure of being a graduate of both NTI's MNT and NFC programs. My own personal health journey and journey to find NTI started when I was in college. Always having been interested in medicine and the human body, I was a young nursing student with a busy schedule. As my health started declining and I started becoming sensitive and allergic to dozens of foods, I knew I had to find a solution. Being familiar with pathophysiology, research and how the human body works, I started reading anything I could get my hands about holistic health and eventually found a provider who filled in the missing details about the origin of my health struggles. I knew I wanted to learn everything I could about holistic health, but needed the science and the research to back up the claims I was learning about. This led me to NTI and eventually NFC.  Having worked in hospitals for 7 years in a variety of settings, I have seen the impact of chronic disease on my patients. I've been determined to try and make an impact on my patients lives in small ways, whether it was discussing nutrition or lifestyle changes outside of the hospital, but the truth is I have seen our hospital systems from the inside out and know there is so much room to grow.  As I navigate the next steps in my career away from the nursing bedside, I hope to use my background, experience and passion to blend the two worlds of conventional and holistic medicine to positively impact future patients or clients!"  Contact Maddie via Email: mplebrun94@gmail.com **Timestamps for the topics discussed can be found on this episode's NTI PodTalk page.

Dietitians and nutrition professionals can feel like the ‘nutrition baby' is being thrown out with the ‘diet bathwater' when learning about size inclusivity (eg the Non-Diet Approach, HAES and Intuitive Eating).  Many wonder... if I can't tell people what to eat, what is left? Is there any point to dietitians? Do I just forget all my medical nutrition therapy knowledge? This existential crisis is a consequence of nutrition-related professions identifying with their key expertise being in weight management. This episode sorts the ‘therapeutic wheat' from the ‘fatphobic chaff' to offer an alternative perspective on your professional identity.   Learning goals: - Recognise the different meanings of the terms ‘diet' and ‘dietary pattern' and their common and technical uses - Identify the therapeutic nutrition elements in size inclusive approaches (eg Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating and the Non-Diet Approach frameworks), and their centring around ‘feel-good' eating - Differentiate between internal vs external motivation and their application in weight-neutral practice  Enjoy!
