One of my favorite things about hosting this podcast is sharing the incredible stories of my guests - the real life ups and downs and unknown paths that they take…that WE ALL take in this journey of life. Today’s guest, Lauren Kretzer, is no exception and her openness to share is a wonderful gift for all of us today.
Out of college, she worked in a high-stress recruiting job on Wall Street, but knew her heart was in plant-based cooking. After getting the courage to leave her career, she went to culinary school and became a private chef for many A-list celebrities, as well as a recipe creator for popular books by Kris Carr and Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, to name a few.
She and her husband started a family and life was wonderful until she was diagnosed with cancer in the Spring of 2020. Yes, right at the time we were all in Covid lockdown.
The lessons and practices she adopted during this time to improve her mental and physical health are great takeaways for us all and I know you’ll appreciate her willingness to share.
And, it wouldn’t be the PLANTSTRONG podcast if I didn’t bend her ear about some of her favorite cooking tips and techniques! She is a recipe creator, after all.
