136 | Radiantly Nourished: Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis with Sena Maria Shellenberger
SUBSCRIBE ON ITUNES
After developing a condition where she began to have an allergic reaction to almost everything she ate, Sena knew something had to change. She had been living a health-focused lifestyle for years after leaving a job at Google and finding the heart medicine of cacao. But years later she would discover her days of drinking cacao, using plant medicines and eating a more vegetarian diet were no longer supporting her body’s needs.
By chance, she won an instagram contest for a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis and learned she was very depleted in certain key minerals our bodies need to thrive. Through changing her diet and supplementing with minerals, Sena began to see all the ways her current life were not supporting her true needs. She bravely left her fiancee, and soon moved from Northern California to her home town in St. Paul, Minnesota.
I love watching my friends evolve and grow, and after witnessing Sena’s transformation to become radiantly nourished, I knew I wanted to hear the whole story. It turns out what may have worked in our 20’s is not always sustainable into our 30’s and beyond…
