Episode #20: A Nutritionist's Guide to Eating Well // Liv Kaplan
Liv Kaplan is a holistic nutritionist (BSc), recipe creator and self-proclaimed healthy chef who you may know as the creator of beautifully plated, mouthwatering yet healthy recipes that are refined sugar-free and focus on real, whole food.
Liv has a particular interest in how what we are eating affects our minds and moods, and measures success by how happy and well we feel. Even as a young teenager - before Instagram was invented and wellness influencers became prevalent - she was often found making herself a green smoothie in her kitchen!
