Ep 71: Removing Labels Around Food and Finding What Works For YOU in Both Wellness and in Life with Danielle DuBoise and Whitney Tingle, Founders of Sakara Life

In this week's episode, Melissa sits down with her long-time friends Danielle DuBoise and Whitney Tingle, the founders of Sakara Life. Together, they share the profound journey of being childhood best friends who later simultaneously hit rock bottom in their early adult life—Danielle with yo-yo dieting and Whitney struggling with severe cystic acne. They discuss how these challenges inspired them to create Sakara, built on the philosophy of using food as medicine to heal our gut and to heal our bodies—emphasizing the transformative power of nutrition. They highlight their experiences of building businesses while also becoming parents, and discuss the unique challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship, which they view not just as a career path but a calling. This episode is a beautiful blend of connection, insight, and inspiration, showcasing the power of resilience and the importance of holistic, individualized approaches to health and wellness.Sign up now for a 7 day free trial at melissawoodhealth.comLimited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE.Head to oseamalibu.com and use code MWH10 for 10% off your order.
