Carrie Forrest is a blogger based in California who's mission is to create + share inspiration for healthy, happy, balanced living. I first found Carrie way back when I decided to go Vegan, at the time she too was vegan and was creating tons of plant based recipes for her readers.
Since Carrie was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease + later, thyroid cancer, she had to make some shifts when it came to her diet.
In the episode Carrie and I hash out her reasons for transitioning out of veganism, and learning to listen to her body's needs.
Some of the episode highlights: Her transition into and out of veganism The signs that her diet wasn't working for her learning to navigate an autoimmune disease overcoming food obsession + binge eating disorder Understanding that 'health' doesn't have a size moving past black + white thinking and combating the food police Resources: Carrie's blog Carrie's instagram Chris Kresser Lessons from a Former Vegan, Carrie Forrest Holly's Site Holly's Instagram
