I just listened to this entire book today, the day of release (9/14/21). I needed to hear Danielle’s story. I have been struggling with IBS lately and getting so frustrated with the amount of food sensitivities I currently have at age 41, that I never had before. And the pain. So much pain. I’ve been 80/20 paleo since 2015. That seemed to work for me until a neck injury in November 2020 and then dental work that required antibiotics. My gut hasn’t been the same since. I was just not wanting to go 100% paleo, thinking I’d be giving up so much. But hearing Danielle speak about her experiences made me completely lose the self-pity and start seeing a grain-free, dairy-free diet as a gift, rather than a loss.

I look forward to collecting her cookbooks now because hearing the passion she put into creating her recipes and how much her husband and children loved them too, made me realize there’s a whole yummy paleo world I’ve yet to discover.

I also related so much to her story about her faith. My faith wavered after my 18 year old nephew was killed in a car accident in 2017. I went a long time without praying, but recently started again, along with Bible studies, which I think is what led me to this book. I definitely think this book was an answer to my prayers.

Danielle is such a lovely and kind soul. I loved hearing how her husband has been so supportive and about her beautiful family.

Thank you, Danielle, for the MUCH needed inspiration and for being such a great example with your authenticity, kindness, and passion for good food, faith, family, and healing. And for the shift in my mindset, from self-pity to gratitude.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
