Published: Feb. 25, 2019, 10:45 a.m.

b'In 2015, Rachel Drori was hangry. Working at Gilt Groupe, she didn\\u2019t have enough time to recipe plan and cook healthy meals every single day. Come 3 p.m., she\\u2019d grab whatever was available for convenience sake\\u2014like a bar or trail mix\\u2014instead of putting good, clean food into her body. She felt totally depleted, and to make matters worse, was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder called Hashimito\\u2019s disease. \\n\\nIn episode 44, she talks to me about this #hurdlemoment which encouraged her to start smart meal prepping and eating healthier, enabling her to manage her disease, forgo prescription medication, and concept a brand new company. Today, farm-frozen favorite Daily Harvest has expanded to more than 50 recipes including smoothies, harvest bowls, oat bowls, chia bowls, soups, activated lattes, and cookies (yes, please). Rachel dishes on the truth behind the fruits and vegetables you see in the grocery store, how she manages to run a 100-person company while raising her two boys, and explains what a \\u201cshiggle\\u201d is.\\nSOCIAL\\n@dailyharvest\\n@racheldrori\\n@hurdlepodcast\\n@emilyabbate\\n\\nOFFERS\\nAthletic Greens | Head to athleticgreens.com/hurdle to get 20 free travel packs ($99 value) with your first purchase, no code necessary.\\nHeadspace | Head to heaspace.com/hurdle to get 30-day free trial of the entire Headspace library, no code necessary. \\nDaily Harvest | Head to daily-harvest.com to get $25 off your first box using the code \\u201cHURDLE\\u201d at checkout.\\n\\n--- \\n\\nSend in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hurdle/message'
