What's lurking in your mashed potatoes?

In case you are new here, welcome! I’m taking the month of January off (here’s why) to get nice and centered for the rest of the year.

I wanted to add a little update……

I just finished the last chapter in my book- I am beyond thrilled. Now I need to add in the intro, why this book and give it a look over change out the fonts and so on. Oh and I am sure the title will morph once again! So, for not its the no-name book every saging lady needs to enhance their sage with sass and grace to shine their fascinating light. I would love if you could comment on the picture above-it would mean the world to me!

I’ve lined up another one of my previously recorded radio shows. This is an info-packed show!

We’ll be talking about SIBO—what it is—and also discussing what’s in your buffet or restaurant mashed potatoes. Should we be ingesting this ingredient? A caller wants to know if her family is right about her Diet Coke obsession. Then, we’ll talk about the emotional and spiritual connections to diet soda.

All you have to do is sit back, listen in, get a good workout, or take a nice drive in your vehicle or RV. Plug in, turn up the volume and listen in.

Thank you everyone,

Karen
