170. Author 2.0 Bali Retreat Session 3

In May 2016, I attended and spoke at a brilliant retreat that was organised and run by Andrew Griffiths and Bree James. I had a chance to chat with some of the attendees, and here are their stories…

Kate Reardon

• Removing impediments that stand in our way on a mental, physical, emotional and spiritual level… the true meaning of “cleansing” for Kate
• The 21 day cleanse
• Stepping up and becoming all that we can be as human beings on this planet
• Choosing what we eat is a luxury
• Kate’s perspective of food as medicine and how it can heal our bodies
• The importance of eating: The way it serves our bodies and how to use it to enhance our lives
• Hunger and obesity
• The importance of educating people about life, being grateful and inspiring others to make a difference for the good of all of us
• How Kate is making value when it comes to sharing food with the people she loves
• How she advises her clients to make time to share a meal with their families and celebrate life by coming together
• Health and food
• How she keeps it simple and light by sharing what really healthy food should be like
• The importance of drinking more water, getting out in sunlight and eating whole foods

• Kate’s incredible time at the Author 2.0 Bali Retreat and being with people who are really inspiring
• What made her sign up and what she got out of the four day retreat
• Kate’s big desire to be of service in the best way that she can

Kate Reardon’s earliest and fondest memories around food

“I think I took it for granted and I didn’t have a good relationship with food. It was just something that I put in my body. I didn’t think about what it was. But now I have this deep appreciation for carrots growing up from the ground – that it took this long and it’s being graded. And how it’s mixed into a salad and then with a tomato. I just really appreciate it because it’s a luxury that we get to choose what we eat.”

Who would you love to have dinner with and where?

“I love this question. Frida Kahlo. She is one of my favourite artists of all time. She’s a Mexican artist. She was such an eccentric, unique, creative woman who really expressed herself in a way that was really out there for her time. She really pushed boundaries on so many different levels, like in politics and religion, and wasn’t afraid to be herself. There are so many questions I would love to ask her. I’ve loved her since I was a little girl. I would love to go to Spain, San Sebastian.”

Last meal on the planet

“I think it would be a mango. That would be just so good. ”
