Sersie and Gigi unpack the connection between work, health and purpose with Dr. Mark Cawman.  Dr. Mark Cawman is an Assistant Professor of International Business, Strategic Management, and Organizational Performance at Azusa Pacific University. Prior to accepting a role as full-time faculty, Mark spent 26 years in Senior Management roles in industry (automotive and aerospace sectors), most recently as Vice President of an aerospace company.  His primary research considers cultural implications in work and task design, especially in support of International Business work transfers, and external factors for foreign entry.  He continues to research and publish in the areas of Strategic Management, International Business, Culture, Equity, and Organizational Performance. Mark also has done some secondary research and writing in the area of vocational Choice, Change, and Calibration.  He frames this research around his 7P model (Purpose, Passion, Priorities, Person, Preparation, Prayer, and Praise).  This is very personal to him as he completed a master's and doctorate degree after the age of 40 and had his first child at 47 after giving up on having children.  After his daughter was born, he started an introspective and discernment phase following this 7P model. Mark realized stress and priorities in his life were impacting him physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  He did not like who he had become as a person, and wanted to be more missional in vocation, and focused on his daughter.  Accordingly, he has made significant changes since 2019, supported in prayer.  He now believes he is aligned with purpose and passion through a vocational change that he realized he had significant preparation for.  This also allowed priority changes as he focuses on his daughter.  He realized that he had coped with stress and overall neglected his health through poor eating, bad habits, and neglect.  He put priority on his health as he had a purpose (living well and long for his young daughter), and he was blessed to be reinvented as a person, and now can re-enjoy many of his hobbies that had been his passion when he was younger.  Today his is full of praise as he enjoys a fulfilling career, considerably more time and energy for his daughter and family, a closer walk in his faith, and he lost 80 pounds between mid-January and mid-May!  He supports the message of Gigi and Sersie that health is aligned with purpose, but he speaks to a holistic consideration of vocation and life obligations, spiritual care, and health as a comprehensive well-being.  Join us as he discusses how these can overlap and help or hinder each other in achieving a person that is centered spiritually, physically, emotionally, and vocationally through purpose.

Their mission is to help women draw on their faith, spirituality and plant-based nutrition to transform their lives. Their mission is to elevate the health and wellness for all women.Gigi's story starts in 2007 when she was diagnosed with high cholesterol at the age of 35. It took  her five years, but she ultimately adopted a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle and it changed the trajectory of her health, personal life and career.  Gigi quit her corporate job after 22 years and went back to school to earn a master's degree in Nutrition Sciences from Univ of Alabama at Birmingham. And she became a competitive cyclist at the age of 42. Over ten years ago, Sersie Blue was diagnosed with hypertension during her second pregnancy. She experienced complications during delivery where her son lost oxygen to the brain. This resulted in him needing 24-hour care. Just after his first birthday, he passed away. A plant-based lifestyle change brought her out of the pit physically, emotionally and spiritually. Changing what she ate gave her mental and spiritual clarity. Now she's passionate about helping others make that same connection.

In our conversation with Dr. Kim Williams we discuss the multifactorial nature of hypertension, or chronically high blood pressure. Dr. Kim talks about ways to you can prevent, manage and even reserve your high blood pressure. He talks about his own experience of developing high blood in college and why that convinced him that genetics wasn't the main culprit when it comes to high blood pressure. He also talks about racial disparities in healthcare and how it relates to chronic health issues, specially high blood pressure. If you know someone or you are personally dealing with high blood pressure you will walk away with practical tools to make changes to your health. Key Takeaways: There are several contributing factors, but diet plays a significant role in preventing and reversing high blood pressure. You can take control of your health and protect against hypertension (along with other chronic diseases) by eating a low sodium whole-food, plant-based diet, limiting alcohol, avoiding tobacco, and getting 45 minutes of exercise daily. Foods that lower blood pressure are found in the plant kingdom: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes (beans, peas, lentils), nuts and seeds as well as herbs and spices. We hope you find this information helpful. Learn more about how the Daniel Fast can help lower blood pressure.
