Episode 23 

Let's Talk Taste with Sherry, Saving the Earth One Flavor at a Time

I am so blessed to call Kelly Newlon my friend. She's one of those people that you meet in life and quickly witness her huge-ness (she's actually small in stature) and at the same time you feel how incredibly humble, kind and giving she is. This episode has such depth. It's worth the 51 minutes. We reminisce about our days in culinary school, the fortunate and profound experiences that we shared on the farms in the North Fork Valley of the Gunnison River in Colorado, and ultimately land on what she's working on now. As the Chef/Owner of Real Athletes Diets Kelly will be spending 2 months following an elite athlete, cooking his specialized nutrition all the while being documented on a Nat Geo film. As my friend and mentor, she also straight up tells me what she thinks about all of this flavor stuff I'm doing!
