With the COVID pandemic seemingly never-ending, many families find themselves making unhealthy meal choices while limiting their physical activity. We are guilty of this ourselves and coined the weight we gained “the Covid-19 lbs.” This is why we were very excited to speak to Nutrition Coach, Isa Griffin to learn the basics of healthy eating to boost immunity, maintain a healthy weight, and have optimal brain function. She shares tips and tricks to simplify the process of making healthy food choices. In this episode, she suggested hiding chia seeds in a pudding to create a healthy dessert your kids will love. We found an Isa-approved recipe for chia seed pudding you may want to try. Check it out here. You can find Isa on Facebook @enourishnutrition, Instagram @isagriffin, and her website https://www.enourish.life.

Most recently she has explored commercial gardening on her family property where she has rediscovered her profound love for nature and plants. As much as the pandemic has grounded her, before this adventurous soul could be found surfing in Costa Rica or sightseeing in China, this girl truly loves to travel. Right now though, she can be found embracing slow-living in the redwood forests of Northern California with her longtime partner Zack and their pup Moosh.
