Many of us have had people in our lives who have been our *ultimate* teachers. A person who inspires and uplifts our potential, who shows us new and exciting ways of doing things, a person who shows us how to show up in the world as our authentic selves. Some of us are fortunate enough to have these people in our own families. Many of us turn to public figures, people who put their talents to the world in hopes of helping others. Teri Turner is one such human. She is the captain of No Crumbs Left- an online universe that helps us make everyday food marvelous.
About 3 months into her recovery, April *broke-up* with food. She swore it off and vowed to never interact with it again. Food had done her wrong and she was not getting back into another horrible relationship with food. Many bariatric patients feel the same way after their own procedures, but we all come to realize that we have to eat to live. If we want to find lasting success and our happy, healthy weight after bariatric surgery, we have to reconnect with food.
Teri's approaches food differently. She believes that food is meant to be enjoyed, that food is meant to be wholesome and healthy, that food is made from real, seasonal ingredients, and that preparing meals is not scary. She has dedicated her most recent years to showing us all the power of simple ingredients, easy tricks, and curiosity in our kitchens and farmer's markets to help us find our happiest and healthiest lives.
Episode Topics:

Identifying our relationship with food
How food and health go hand-in-hand
Hunger and what it means
