Hi, I'm Robin Long, Pilates instructor and founder of Lindy Well. Here on the Balance Life

podcast, you'll find honest conversations about health, wellness, self-care, work-life balance, and everything in between. We'll cover it all

and provide inspiration, resources, and practical tips to help you become the healthiest version of

yourself, inside and out. Hi, friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I am so glad you're here. I hope you're doing well today. And if you're

having a hard day, that's okay too. I hope that today's episode will lift you up and give you

some inspiration and encouragement, especially as it comes to gathering around the table,

nourishing our bodies, and

living a connected life. Today's guest, who I am having a conversation with, is Christine Bailey.

She is an author, a wife, a mama. She's a former music industry gal turned social entrepreneur

turned author and organic produce farmer. What I also love is that she has been a

long time member of our community. So for the past, I think, seven years or so, Christine has been a

member of our community doing our Pilates workouts, using Pilates to support her on her journey

towards cultivating a life of beauty, nourishment, and community

and inspiring others to do the same. It is such a joy to have her on the podcast today.

She is the owner of Kindred Farm. So it's a 17-acre sustainable farm in Tennessee.

They grow beautiful food. They gather community at their shared meals,

picture long tables under the stars. They're dedicated to regenerating the land and really

creating space for people to experience what she calls kindred. Christine believes that something

magical happens around the table when we come together. She believes our souls were made for connection and that life is meant to be shared in

community.

It's inspiring to me and I hope it will be to you as well.

So without further ado, let's go ahead and dive in.
