People That Inspire Me

Robyn O’Brien shares her personal story and how it inspired her current path as a "Real Food" evangelist. Grounded in a successful Wall Street career that was more interested in food as good business than good-for-you, this mother of four was shaken awake by the dangerous allergic reaction of one of her children to a "typical" breakfast. Her mission to unearth the cause revealed more about the food industry than she could stomach, and impelled her to share her findings with others. Informative and inspiring.

Positive affirmation for the day: 

“In the absence of the truth, all of us stand helpless to defend ourselves, our families and our health, 

which is the greatest gift we have.  Robyn O’Brien’s courageous pursuit is an example of how we can all do our parts to protect the health of our families." —Erin Brockovich
