Hey Change Podcast

Allergies, digestive issues, fatigue, stress. Unfortunately, these are all terms that are becoming more and more common in today's world. In my talk with model and integrative nutrition health coach Sandrina Bencomo, we put some light on these commonalities and highlight how that doesn't have to be your destiny, and that you have the power in your hands to decide the life you want to live. Is it normal to feel tired after we eat, or is that's just a reality we've accepted? A reality we can change? And how can we connect with our bodies and become each other's best friend? Sandrina shares some of her valuable coaching advice and teaches us how there's, for example, no such thing as a bad craving. Sandrina Bencomo is a beautiful person from the inside out with her roots from Venezuela. She’s a model with Elite Models in New York and she’s also a certified nutrition and health coach. She started her own journey to integrative health when she struggled with a bunch of different things she couldn't find help for. When she realized there weren't answers to be given anywhere, she decided to seek them up herself and once and for all gain power over her own life.

How do we react when we realize that we may not be as healthy as we thought? When is a habit becoming obsessive, and how can we change our ways of being in order to take care of ourselves in better ways? In today’s girl talk with life philosopher, TEDx Speaker, and total babe Kerrin Smith, we talk about everything the Universe has brought to our attention right now. We also discuss the meaning of the word empathy, and how it’s so different to rebel against something bad opposed to standing for something good, even though the underlying cause may be the same. Kerrin Smith is the founder COOL AND THOUGHTFUL™ and its predecessor CATiD LLC, a passion project with the mission to redefine what it means to be cool. In 2014 she delivered a TEDx talk, The Local Economy of Fashion, and she's all about making that vintage chic look feel just right. If you're in NYC and see a girl wearing sneakers with colorful ribbons, that might just be her!
