Welcome to the first episode of The 'Sader Digest: A Food, Wellness, and Health Podcast, the official Holy Cross podcast on nutrition and well-being! Hosted by Bradley Shannon, Director of Culinary Development and Nutrition, and Alex Weld, a board-certified lifestyle medicine nurse practitioner and self-proclaimed foodie, this episode explores the essentials of health and wellness on campus.
We introduce Holy Cross's commitment to the Okanagan Charter and the concept of promoting lifelong well-being for students and the community. Bradley and Alex dive into the basics of macronutrients—carbohydrates, fats, and proteins—discussing their roles in energy, health, and sustainability. Learn how to differentiate between "good" and "bad" carbs and fats, why quality matters, and how to make informed food choices both on campus and beyond.
With analogies, practical tips, and expert insight, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to take a balanced, sustainable approach to nutrition. Stay tuned for future episodes where we’ll take a deeper dive into each macro and more!

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
