Dr. Sherry Zhang is a mother and founder and CEO of Genopalate. In this conversation we talk about equipping our children with tools to navigate challenges, successes, and failures. Dr. Zhang shares how motherhood has enriched her life as she builds a family that cares about each others interests and learning and growing together. We also discuss the power of eating for your genes and the incredible tools that Genopalate has created to arm us with individualized information about our nutrition needs.

Key Points from this Episode:
- Motherhood is a learning experience from day one.
- Every day is going to have some sort of fantastic uncertainty. It’s up to us to make it better or worse.
- Learning from our children, who we created, is an amazing experience.
- Teaching our children principles and standards sets them up to interact well with the ever-changing environment around them.
- Successes are a very personal thing. Your successes can look completely different than someone else’s.
- Your genetic code can give hints to what foods work best with your body.
- Health is not just about weight loss. Overall health is so much more.

Thriving in Motherhood Podcast Community on Patreon
Patreon is the place where we can come together as mothers and intentionally cultivate growth together. Each month you can gain access to printable worksheets that go along with topics in the podcast to help us slow down and make lasting change – not just be inspired for a few days and then move on. These worksheets are what I’m personally working on and talking about with my closest friends – and I want YOU to join us!
Cultivate your growth intentionally with us through two worksheets a month, a online community, and a monthly group video call to share our “big wins” and things we are still working on.
