Day 5 brought us home along historic Route 66 after an unforgettable Santa Fe adventure ššµ From roadside stops and wide-open views to reflecting on days filled with art, culture, architecture, and new experiences, this trip was a reminder that growth often happens when we step outside our normal routines.
One thing that stayed consistent the entire journey was my commitment to the habits that help me feel my best ā sleep, movement, hydration, and staying sugar-free. Healthy habits donāt have to stay home when we travel. A few non-negotiables can help us fully enjoy the experience while still honoring our recovery and health goals.

Just dropped on Apple, Spotify and YouTube. Food addiction, ultra processed food recovery, and metabolic health are explored in this episode of Real Food Recovery Podcastā¢. This conversation focuses on how lifestyle medicine can support recovery from ultra processed food patterns and improve long term metabolic and chronic disease outcomes.
Real Food Recovery Podcastā¢ was created from a society wrestling with ultra-processed food addiction and the deep exhaustion that comes from feeling trapped in destructive patterns. After decades of obsession, frustration, and starting over, Paige Alexander holds this space to speak honestly about what it takes to heal, offering lived experience, grounded perspective, and practical tools to rebuild a life rooted in peace instead of chaos.
In this episode, Paige is joined by Dr. Ann Hester, a double board certified physician in Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine, to explore how everyday choices, especially food, directly impact metabolism, inflammation, hormones, and long term health. This conversation brings clarity to what is often overcomplicated and highlights a more sustainable, evidence based path forward.
After more than three decades in traditional medicine, Dr. Hester shifted her focus to addressing the root causes of chronic disease through lifestyle medicine. Her approach centers on nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and behavior change, helping people move beyond symptom management and into real, lasting health.
Together, Paige and Dr. Hester discuss the connection between ultra processed food consumption and chronic disease, how inflammation and metabolic dysfunction develop over time, and what it looks like to begin reversing that process with simple, consistent changes.
They also explore how to cut through the noise of conflicting health information and build a foundation that supports long term vitality without extremes or overwhelm.
If you are looking for a more grounded, science backed approach to healing your body and creating lasting health, this conversation will meet you where you are.
