Summary

I’m thrilled to share a truly special conversation with the incredible Kris Carr. It feels like a full-circle moment for me since I've followed her inspiring journey for over 13 years. Kris has been living with a challenging diagnosis for 21 years, and in this episode, she opens up about her health journey, how diet and lifestyle play a crucial role, and her empowering approach to becoming the CEO of her own health. We also explore her new book, I'm Not a Mourning Person, which deeply resonated with me given my own experiences with grief. Kris's vibrant energy and wisdom left me feeling incredibly inspired, and I know you'll find this episode just as moving and enlightening.

0:00.0	On today's episode of the Real Foodology Podcast.
0:02.6	We have to be the leader and put the right people in the room and make sure that they're
0:08.0	talking and make sure that we have our medical records and not make assumptions that if I go from one doctor
0:14.4	well of course they will have gotten the records from the last doctor.
0:17.4	Rather we have to be like here are my records and also assume that they haven't even looked at them even though you sent them
0:25.0	ahead of time and they didn't look at any of the forms even though you filled them out twice
0:31.1	and it took you know 30 minutes both times and like really hold the space in the room when you have it because
0:40.0	it's going to go by quickly and in today's medical system it's going to go by
0:45.8	quicker than you can possibly imagine right because it's a it's a factory in
0:50.9	so many ways. Hello friends, welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology Podcast.

1:07.3	really monumental and amazing people onto this podcast. From the very beginning stages of my own personal and wellness
1:15.6	journey. I share this at the very beginning of the episode but I found Chris Carr
1:20.7	back in I think it was around 2011. It was around the time that I was
1:24.2	starting to get really into health and wellness. It was back when I decided to go back to school
1:29.6	to get my master's in nutrition. And I had found all these documentaries about health and wellness, one being
1:35.2	forks over knives, there was another one called Fat Sick and Nearly Dead.
1:38.8	There was another one that came out a couple years after that called Fed Up, and if you haven't watched any of these documentaries
1:44.2	I highly recommend them. I know forks over knives really leans more towards
1:49.3	vegetarian vegan diets but there's a lot of gems in there as far as overall well-being and the
1:56.1	importance of eating real food and not saying that you shouldn't or couldn't be
