ALL ABOUT NANCY
Raised outside of Seattle Washington, I have always relished the outdoors of the Pacific Northwest. Exercising outside is one of my greatest joys. Naturally, it led me to a career in fitness. I am the owner of the first Authentic Pilates Studio in Bellevue WA. Nancy Wallace Pilates is the largest Pilates Studio in West Bellevue, and is fully loaded with top of the line Gratz Equipment. I also love food. I have always had the opinion that eating healthy can take the shape of many forms. The reality is, no matter what health program you are on, if the food is not born from healthy soil, then you are probably not reaping the potential health benefits of that food. As consumers, we have the power to change how food is farmed in America. With every purchase, we can become a wallet activist! From the bottom of my heart I believe health starts from the earth. Watching my children is a testament to that feeling.⠀ www.regenerativemama.com/
Episode 9: Lana Joe Salant and the Ethical Omnivore Movement (EOM)
You can find EOM on Instagram under @EthicalOmnivoreMovement and on Facebook as EOM - Ethical Omnivore Movement AND under EOM Alliance. And the website is www.ethicalomnivore.org UPDATE: since recording this Instagram has deleted the EOM page, it’s back but has to start from scratch again.
"Nutritionally, human beings flourish on an ancestral diet, where eating predominantly grain free, quality meat, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds is the focus. Food quality and mindful, INTENTFUL, eating habits result in decreased systemic inflammation, increased overall health, improved memory and decreased effects of aging.
Livestock raised according to natural laws is not only necessary to our health ... but necessary for the planet."
Episode 8: Rancher Ryan and Hat Brand Beef
KNOW WHERE YOUR FOOD COMES FROM!
I had a great chat with a 5th Generation rancher from Idaho, Rancher Ryan. If you are in the USA you are in for a treat! Ryan Bedke of Hat Brand Beef is launching their Direct to Consumer Beef business under their brand HAT BRAND BEEF, shipping delicious ranch raised beef direct to your door.
The website is www.hatbrandbeef.com and the instagram handle is @hatbrandbeef (or if you want to see what Ryan gets up to on a daily basis check out his instagram at @rancherryan.

Episode 7: A Butcher who USED TO BE a Vegan!
I had a great chat today with Ben from Legendary Meats. We chatted about Veganism, punk rock, ethical meat and KNOWING where your food comes from.
I had NO IDEA he went from being a vegan of the "better than everyone" mindset to an amazing butcher who is passionate about his trade, and really understands the love and care that goes into every animal whether it be from a farm, a ranch or a homestead.
If you are in the Kootenays, Legendary Meats is a butcher shop in South Slocan and they have cut many of our carcasses. Go and check them out! If you want to try something different ask for Ben and he is happy to chat with and guide you.

Episode 6: Regeneration Canada PART TWO
Continuing my discussion with Antonius Petro of Regeneration Canada. I am a big believer in everything happens for a reason and not forcing things. I have been wanting to get part two uploaded FOR MONTHS but it just never quite happened. Now, with the AWFUL article/video by the NYtimes on how Agriculture is destroying the environment that is causing quite a lot of backlash in the farming and ranching worlds, today seems the perfect time to publish. Antonius and I touch on climate change and the benefits of Regenerative Agriculture.
Please do get in touch with us at Waikikahei Ranch (www.waikikahei.com) or Regeneration Canada (https://regenerationcanada.org) if you want to know more and embark on your Regenerative Journey. (If you are in the USA contact me amy@waikikahei.ca and I can put you in touch with the American counterparts)
Episode 5: Regeneration Canada PART ONE
Regeneration Canada is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting soil regeneration in order to mitigate climate change, restore biodiversity, improve water cycles, and support a healthy food system. They strive towards this goal by creating spaces for farmers, landowners, scientists, agronomists, businesses, community organizations, governments, and citizens to learn, connect and take action to regenerate soils.

Episode 4: Supporting local and Buying Local
Episode 3: Sourcing local, supporting local and catering for all
This week we chat with Chef Craig Sherer of the Bow and Stern Restaurant in the Lower Mainland (Abbotsford and Chilliwack, BC). We discuss sourcing local, and catering for herbivores, omnivores and carnivores and how there is a place for THEM ALL. We are all allowed to be different. https://www.bowandstern.ca
