Time: 5:00pm - 6:30pm ET

Description:
Join Stefanie Sacks, MS, CNS, CDN—Culinary Nutritionist, author of What the Fork Are You Eating, founder of WTFork.com, a digital community devoted to food, nutrition, and cooking without the B.S., and former Green Circle participant—for a grounded, compassionate exploration of our relationship with nourishment. Together, we’ll look at how lived experiences and trauma shape what and how we eat, and how chronic illness can become part of our personal nourishment narrative. This session invites curiosity rather than judgment, and reflection rather than rules. Through thoughtful conversation, Stefanie will share small, meaningful shifts that can lead to lasting change—practical insights you can begin using right away to support your health and well-being. This is a safe, supportive space, designed to foster connection, understanding, and agency. You’ll leave with a renewed perspective, concrete tools, and a curated resource list to support your journey beyond the session.
