Leah is the best coworker anyone could ask for: she is supportive during tough times, she has a great sense of humor, and she loves to take walks/eat lunch outside to break up the day. Even during COVID-era, Leah still leaves treats on my desk on the days she\\u2019s in the office! She is so, so thoughtful, intensely creative, and a wonderful friend. In this episode, her son, Whitney, joined us to talk about their family memories and traditions around eating and cooking. Whitney was home, studying for his chiropractic boards, and Leah and her husband have gotten to enjoy his culinary abilities while he\\u2019s been visiting.\\xa0

We talked about the importance of nutrition and exercise for our physical and emotional wellness. Whitney follows the ketogenic diet, which he became interested in as a young adult after reading David Seaman's book, The Deflame Diet. Leah is also quite health-conscious (despite how great a baker she is), and she shared a number of foods she likes to employ in her home cooking.\\xa0

It was such a pleasure to have our first family show! I have only recently seen Leah in-person again, as we start to go back into the office a couple days a week, and it hasn\\u2019t been the same without her. Whitney pokes fun at Leah for the period of time in his childhood when his mom was known to make a lot of casserole dishes, however I think it\\u2019s a beautiful thing that now, as an adult, he is actually helping her out by cooking several meals a week. Especially during such high-stress and emotionally draining times as these.\\xa0
