The Midlife Health Reset That Starts Where Food Detox Leaves Off With Joseph And Tawna Chammas Of Gratitude Garden Farm [Ep 93] — The Cinnamon Effect - Supporting Women's Health, Emotional Resilience and Personal Growth

Most of us assume that if we clean up what we eat, everything else will follow. Joseph Chammas believed that too, right up until a stage four diagnosis sent him looking for answers no grocery list was going to hold.

This episode welcomes Joseph and Tawna Chammas, founders of Gratitude Garden Farm, who spent more than a decade turning five acres in Loxahatchee into a certified organic farm and retreat space. Together we get into the treatment Joseph walked away from, the food detox center he went to instead, and the raw vegan meals that became ordinary to him. The emotional healing work is the part he never saw coming. Tawna shares the botanical medicine she makes and teaches, along with the medicinal mushrooms they now help other farms grow.

You'll learn:

Why the emotional work can be harder to begin than changing what we eat
How the body may respond when we never come out of fight or flight
What can shift when we grow even a little of our own nourishing food
Why eating vegan and eating for health can be two separate pursuits
How healing foods may do their best work alongside things that aren't food at all
What a midlife pivot can cost us before it gives anything back
Why our midlife health may depend on what we're carrying as much as what we're eating
How supporting someone who isn't ready to change can show us where our limits are

For anyone who has ever suspected they’ve been treating the wrong thing, or who needs a reminder that midlife reinvention can begin long before we know where it’s going, this is for you.

Hit play and let's grow together,

Kimberly
