Join our Center for Disease Control Diabetes Prevention Coaches, Jenny G. and Megan S. for our final episode on preventing Type 2 diabetes. This 4th episode in the series will focus on stress management. Stress alone won't cause diabetes, but it does cause changes in the body creating an uphill battle for diabetes prevention. Join us to learn about the stress and diabetes connection, ways to identify stress, and most importantly, tools we can use to minimize the harmful effects of stress.

The holidays are right around the corner, and for most of us, it is inevitable that our dietary patterns and routines will be challenged. If you are following or looking to move in the direction of adopting a more plant-based lifestyle, you can expect that the challenge may be even greater! Rather than letting the holidays take control of our nutrition habits, this episode will be focused on how to empower yourself to stay strong during the holiday season, and be intentional with your choices. Our Orriant Health Coach and Plant-Based expert, Lindsey Roberts, will be joining us for this episode to share her experience, suggestions, resources and best recommendations when it comes to being successful in adopting or sticking with a plant-based diet through the holidays.
