Summary
Do whole foods really have the power to heal? That's the question today's guest has dedicated her life to answering. Brooke Graves is the owner of Kaleidoscope, an Arizona-based healthy restaurant chain famous for their organic cold-pressed juices and high-vibe food.
We're diving into Brooke's journey from first realizing the healing power of foods through her own struggles with rheumatoid arthritis as a child, and how that experience inspired her passion for what she calls "culinary medicine" …a concept that's at the heart of every item on the Kaleidoscope menu and her desire to pursue a doctorate in clinical nutrition.
That mission has propelled the success of Brooke's juice empire, scaling to seven physical locations in the last 10 years (with zero business experience!) Brooke is one of the smartest women I know and I'm so honored to share her story with you.
