227: REPOST Kate Eskuri on Building Foundational Health with Holistic & Realistic Self Care

Please help us make 2021 the best podcast year yet, by taking this brief survey!

Today on the podcast we have guest Kate Eskuri. When I found Kate it was like finding a long lost like minded sister in this world of holistic health and well being!

Kate is a registered nurse, going back to school to get her doctorate in integrative health. She believes in traditional practices backed by modern research, which is totally up my alley. In this episode, you’ll hear us geek out on our love for blending Eastern and Western philosophies, how to be less black and white about your health and wellness rituals and what it means to practice holistic and realistic self care.

Kate is the author and founder of the Foundation blog and I know if you enjoy today’s episode you’ll love learning from her blog and following her on Instagram. 

In this episode we discuss:

Kate’s origin story to beginning the Foundation Blog
