I recorded this interview a few months ago and re-listening to it reminded me how much I loved this conversation, it is so aligned with the direction I want this podcast to move into. Galia is an inspiring writer, director, and actress originally from Israel and now living in NYC. She has a movie she's finishing editing now and sending to film festivals called Then What Happens. Her perspectives on life and her passion for her art shine through in todays conversation. We also explore body image both generally and in her industry as she talks about her own story and struggles with an eating disorder. She shares in such a beautiful way her deep connection and exploration into her body and self and how this has carried her to where she is today. She is just an all around lovely soul and has so many great recommendations for books, movies, directors, actors, and life lessons. -- SHOW SPONSOR -- At the end of the episode, stick around for a quick conversation with Dr. Erin Stokes the director of health at MegaFood Supplements today's pod sponsor. Erin talks about her journey to falling into a career she loves and why she is so passionate about it. She also give some quick tips on how we can all “mind the gap” and get the extra nutrients we are missing out on, even when we are living a healthy lifestyle.
