No Sugar Coats

No Sugar Coats

Everyone wants to live their healthiest life. But what does "healthy" even mean? Is there one "healthy" way to be? Looking on social media, everyone has their own opinion on the "best" way to be healthy. The truth is that most of what you see on social media and online in regard to health and wellness is disinformation at its worst and biased reviews of research at its best. With a wealth of experience in the public and writing health sectors, Staci uses stories from her own chronic health journey to help you reclaim your grip on a healthy relationship with food and your body.
