Summary

Knowledge Bomb: Dr. G talks about his return from emotional release training in Portugal and answers some important questions. Why do we hold emotions? Where do we hold emotions?  How does this affect our daily lives? How is emotional health the root of all healing? How can emotional healing heal generational trauma? Special Guest Segment: Colleen Kavanagh joins the show. As the founder of Zēgo and a powerful consumer advocate she answers questions like. The dirty secret behind the pea protein industry. The dirty secret behind oats. The corruption behind school lunches. How to advocate for yourself to companies as a consumer. Toxins in baby food. GUEST BIO: Colleen Kavanagh has dedicated her career to improving nutrition quality in food to provide the foundational wellness people and communities need to thrive.   In her early career, she worked in politics to improve child nutrition programs like school lunch, WIC and Food Stamps for Cong. George Miller, and later as Director of the anti-hunger organization California Food Policy Advocates.   When taking time off to raise her young family, she started her own nonprofit, A Better Course, to focus on institutional injustices that prevent children from receiving healthy food at school and in the food stamp program (SNAP). Her study, Flunking Lunch, lead to the banning of separate lines for low-income students in the school lunchroom nationwide.   Seeking a more effective leverage point to improve nutrition, Colleen launched ZEGO LLC. ZEGO makes nutritious, whole food breakfast and snack products with purity testing transparency for over 500 toxins like glyphosate, pesticides, heavy metals, and allergens.   Colleen’s mission with ZEGO is simple, yet revolutionary. She seeks to inspire rapid changes to clean the food system by establishing that consumers have the right to know if there is toxic residue in their food before they consume it.   Colleen is originally from Memphis, TN and is raising three children and two dogs with her husband Erik Puknys in San Francisco.
