Nourish Balance Thrive How to Make a Career in Paleo
Tony Federico is a shining example of how to make a career out of the paleo diet and lifestyle. After a personal training client suggested the diet, Tony never looked back, going on to write for Paleo Magazine and hosting the podcast of the same name. He recently made the decision to move on to VP of marketing at Natural Force; a supplement company committed to making products using only the purest, highest quality, all-natural and organic ingredients.
