On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast, what we see now, we have epidemic portions of depression, of anxiety, of mental illness, and physical illness. And it's so devastating. But part of it is because a lot of people have lost a sense of anchor. But that anchor can be so powerful in times of turbulence because we know why we're here. We know what our purpose is.

And for me, it's like, I know now, I've been through a lot and I wasn't always this way,

but now that I've been through cancer and Crohn's and mold-related illness and magic divorce

and all these things, I know there's nothing that can come my way, even death, that I can't handle.

And that's a powerful place to be.

Hi, friends.

Welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology Podcast.

As always, I'm your host, Courtney Swan, and I am so grateful that you were here today.

Today's episode was a really special one for me.

You know, I talked to a lot of people.

I talked to a lot of different experts in the nutrition field.

And we dive a lot into science and biochemistry.

And we talk a lot about the body.

And this one was way more spiritual.

And I love when this happens.

I always come into my conversations with an open mind and open heart.

And I always come in with notes and a general direction

that I think that the conversation is going to go. And sometimes it does go that way. And other times

just like in life, we can make plans and then life has other plans for us. And this conversation

really had other plans for us and went in a totally different direction than I initially had

expected. But it was so

beautiful and exactly the way the conversation was meant to go. And it was very, very resonant for me.
