Lia Huber starts off by telling listeners about a time she served veggie soup to kids in Guatemala—and they liked it! Huber makes the story personal, telling of her own childhood as a "meat-and-potatoes girl." Her diet began to change during a romance in Greece and kept evolving—with fibromyalgia and financial belt tightening helping to push her away from processed foods. Huber's relationship with food is intertwined with her relationship with God, and both stories are told in an intimate tone. She also discusses her adoption of a baby girl, her marriage, and her winding career path, which led to her current podcast on healthy eating. Listeners can try the recipes she mentions through a PDF that is included. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
