Summary

#27: In today's episode, I chat with New York Times Best Selling Author of the Against All Grain cookbook series, Danielle Walker. Danielle shares her health journey with us and how she was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at the age of 22 years old and how she has used food to help heal her. Danielle fills us on how she started her food blog and creating recipes, what a paleo lifestyle looks like for her, her must have items in the house for grain-free cooking and baking and how she cooks paleo-ish for her family. Danielle also speaks to her fertility journey and loss of their second child and what we can do to support other women and families during their journey. For more from Danielle, head on over to againstallgrain.com    Thank you Simple Mills for sponsoring today's episode! Simple Mills has been one of my favorite products for years now. They make the most delicious gluten-free and grain-free crackers, baking mixes, cookies and more. Their Almond Flour Crackers are a staple in our pantry and have been for years. Especially those Farmhouse Cheddar ones that taste like cheez-itzs (not kidding!). I share all of my favorite Simple Mills products here and you can snag them over in Whole Foods Market as well as many other retailers.    For more from me, I'm over @rachLmansfield and rachLmansfield.com
