In today’s episode, Yaa Boyake is talking with Ayten Salahi. Ayten is a researcher, food policy advocate, and nutrition coach on a mission to heal people and the planet through food. After nearly a decade in medical research, Ayten left her job and moved across the country to follow her true passions to develop and advocate for food and nutrition programs that sustain human, ecological, and communal well-being. Since completing her Master of Science in Food and Nutrition Policy and Programs and her Didactic Program in Dietetics in Boston, Ayten has founded an international food and climate justice organization that leverages the unique role of food and nutrition professionals to cultivate a more just, regenerative, and climate-resilient food future for all, called the Planetary Health Collective. Applying these same values, Ayten has also launched an eco-friendly 6-week nutrition coaching program to help womxn heal their gut and restore natural energy without sacrificing the joy or culture of food.
‘I think that the people who always have the strongest messaging and the strongest impact on their clients are people who share their felt experience, their lived experience, and come from a place of authenticity in their messaging.” - Ayten Salahi
