Summary
Kris Vaughan was always a go-getter, moving at 100 miles per hour, feeling great pride in her ability to do it all with great efficiency. But that all changed when she decided to run a half marathon, which finally put her already-delicate health into a downward spiral ending in a thyroid crash or what some call adrenal fatigue. After 2 years of nourishing herself with healthy foods and having lots of quiet time just "being," Kris has restored her health and continued to make it a priority to live slowly, deliberately and with authenticity.
