She got into personal training and now helps teens overcome their issues around food.

Though they both run separate health businesses, Jill and Karen joined forces and designed the Official Health Coach Detox to empower people to take control of their diet and heal their body. The 10-day program focuses on rebooting the body by giving it whole foods to rebalance health—no shakes, no supplements, no complex recipes.

We simply can’t get enough of her no-nonsense, straightforward approach! Tracy will give it to you straight, but with a lot of love and plenty of laughter (side note – we LOVE Tracy’s laugh! It needs to be recorded and played to the world!). A trained Love Coach, Tracy helps people to overcome their attachment issues and become more empowered. We highly recommend her—check out her website, where you can find her awesome podcast.

Tracy Crossley’s Bio

Tracy Crossley is a Master Intuitive based in LA County where she conducts sessions in person, over the phone and through Skype. Her blend of intuition, business acumen, psychology, Reiki, spirituality and subconscious pattern breaking helps people identify their real obstacles and connect emotionally. Her straightforward approach has attracted CEOs, people in work/life transition and other Type A individuals who think intellectualizing problems is the key to solving them (Hint: it isn’t). Tracy studied neuropsychology and received her BA from Charter Oak State College. She is a Reiki Master and blogger for publications such as Huffington Post and elephant journal. She is an empathic; clairvoyant, clairaudient and clairsentient, in other words…She really utilize her sixth sense.

In addition, her mentoring work has run the realm in counseling many folks who have struggled in and out of relationships.The road that lead to becoming a coach/mentor didn’t seem to be on her agenda. Clearly, the Universe had other ideas, and through a series of synchronistic events she trained to become a love coach almost seven years ago. It was an area she struggled most of her life (WHAT WAS LOVE?) from self-loathing as a young girl to not being seen in relationships as she truly was–her trail was strewn with a lot of people pleasing and appearing perfect. As a born intuitive, She always knew things she was the go-to person for advice. It’s funny, for years she had such a fear of getting a reading or anything from another psychic. Over 20 years ago, she had her first reading…only to be told by nearly every psychic that they wanted her to read them instead! Has she got stories! She has taught classes in meditation, Tarot, vision-boarding, among all the other mentoring workshops. She always gives it straight but with a lot of love (and some laughter)!

She currently broadcast her farm fresh recipes and warmhearted sensibilities to an extensive audience spanning more than 130 countries via LeslieDurso.com.

After establishing herself as a private chef for the NYC and Hollywood elite, Leslie emerged as a public persona, hosting cooking segments on television and healthy living content online. Determined to inspire beneficial life-long eating habits for everyone, she has appeared on The Food Network, The Discovery Channel, The doctors, The Hallmark Channel, Everyday Health and Mother Nature Network4 and written for MindBodyGreen, VegNews, CNN.com, Redbook, Glamour, Maxim, and dozens more, evangelizing the benefits of a mindful lifestyle, delivered with her trademark blend of sunshine sophistication and girl next door reliability.

95: Leslie Durso on Meatless Mindset for Easy Sophistication

So, you’ve decided to go vegan, but where do you begin? Going cold-turkey can be tough, and navigating through the complicated online recipes and lists of unfamiliar ingredients can be frustrating! This is where today’s guest, actress turned celebrity chef and healthy living educator, Leslie Durso, steps in.

Leslie has been walking the plant-based path since the age of 8! Her love of cooking began as she veganized her family’s traditional Italian dishes. Despite being a gourmet vegan chef (and we testify to her talents – the cupcakes she brought us were divine!), Leslie focuses on providing easy, accessible and tasty plant-based recipes that anyone can make.

Leslie has combined her love of food and education to bring the message of healthy living to the world, one cupcake at the time. Her approach is inclusive; her goal is to get everyone to simply eat more vegetables and to help people find their food-spot, the diet and lifestyle that works for them. Leslie doesn’t believe there are any incurable diseases—what you put into your body is exactly what you’re going to get out.

What you’ll discover:

Why Leslie ate 32 cupcakes in one sitting.
What makes Leslie a vegan chef with a difference.
The way food perception can change what the food does to your body.
Why certain studies can’t be trusted, and how to get the full story.
How to convince and promote positive change through love.
The only question you need to ask to find out whether your cosmetics are safe.
How to make your own vanilla extract (it’s amazing in cupcake frosting OR cocktails!)
Why hybrid cars may not be that sustainable after all, and a more eco-friendly option.
How your diet can make a bigger impact on the planet than anything else.
Leslie’s favorite vegan make-up brands.

We’ll even eat vegetables for her.”
