Teresa's guest, Brian Brenner, chose a newspaper column Teresa wrote about a fad diet that was making the rounds in the 1990's. Brian chose it because he too has fought the battle of the bulge.
They talk, with humor and compassion, about their own challenges with body image, aging, health and how much of our approach to food has to do with family and culture.
Brian is a global real estate consultant whose journey spans 17 years in Hong Kong where he and Teresa met through the American Chamber of Commerce. He now lives in Orange County, California with his wife Mayumi and their three children. Brian advises companies around the world, supports U.S. life sciences firms with advanced manufacturing site selection, and serves as a trusted advisor in Orange County. He’s also a proud board member of U-Go University, which provides scholarships for high-potential young women in low-income countries.
Brian has also been on a number of different diets over his lifetime but has found an answer that is working for him, and shares it with Teresa in this episode. Enjoy!
