In this episode of 1% Shift, we explored the benefits of eating seasonally for both our health and the environment. By aligning our diets with nature's rhythms and embracing locally grown, seasonal produce, we not only support our own well-being with a diverse range of nutrients but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions, support local farmers, and promote agricultural diversity.
Takeaways:
- Nutritional Diversity: Eating seasonally allows us to rotate our diets and enjoy a diverse range of nutrients throughout the year, supporting overall health and preventing nutrient deficiencies.
- Environmental Impact: Choosing locally grown, seasonal produce reduces the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation of out-of-season foods, helping to mitigate climate change.
- Supporting Local Farmers: Purchasing from farmers' markets or joining CSA programs supports local farmers, preserves farmland, and strengthens rural communities.
- Embracing Creativity: Get creative in the kitchen by experimenting with new recipes featuring seasonal ingredients, expanding culinary horizons while enjoying the freshest flavors nature has to offer.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
