Learn How to Travel Gluten-Free with Experts During Celiac Awareness Month

Next week, I have the honor of joining two exceptional webinars as a guest speaker in honor of Celiac Awareness Month. Both events are free and will be recorded if you cannot make the live webinar.

As I prepare for both of these celiac awareness month webinars, I am really in awe of the way my celiac advocacy journey has played out. When I was a kid in the 1990s, I didn’t want anyone to know that I had celiac disease. People often questioned my weird food but I didn’t really talk about it.

Today, I am joining two of the most prestigious celiac disease centers in the United States to share my lifelong experience of living, traveling, and thriving with celiac disease. I have really come a long way and I am grateful every day for these opportunities!

It’s already the middle of January and I question every day what is going on in this world. While I kicked off the new year with a trip to Toronto, I haven’t felt like blogging much lately. I haven’t been posting regularly to Instagram. Honestly, after being in the blogging space for more than 18 years(!!!) I am feeling a bit lost in this social media focused world.
