Starla Garcia is a Registered Dietitian and owner of The Healthy Shine, LLC, 2020 Olympic Trials Qualifier, and body and cultural diversity advocate. Her journey to wellness came after battling an eating disorder as a Latina student-athlete during her collegiate years. That experience was the catalyst that set her on the path of intuitive eating and developing a healthy relationship with cultural foods and exercise.
