Episode 10: The Power of Nutrition with Genny Mack
Summary
We dive into one of the biggest players in our health—nutrition, and the profound power it holds to fuel, heal, and save us.
This episode features the incredible story of Genny Mack, who in 2017 went from being a high-powered CPA on Wall Street to struggling with a Lupus diagnosis. After a doctor dismissed her concerns with a laugh and told her to "eat whatever you want" while on medication, Genny realized she had to take control of her own body.
Genny is now a passionate Nutritionist, Forager, and Movement Expert who has built a massive following by sharing her journey. She's not just managing her chronic illness—she's actively rebuilding her strength and training for her very first marathon.
In this conversation we discuss all things nutrition, what Genny eats to fuel for her first marathon, and tips for other women.
