#53 - Mary Shenouda: Trusting Your Gut

We’ve got the Paleo Chef here today on Rebuilding the Beast! Mary Shenouda is a private chef whose journey starts all the way back to the 2nd grade. While in elementary school, she would experience extreme headaches that caused her to be sick with no fever, resulting in doubts from her teachers. But after decades of pain, countless trips to the ER, and people telling her it was all in her own head, Mary decided to take matters into her own hands. By 25, she discovered she was Celiac. A sense of relief absorbed Mary because she finally figured out how she could heal her body – by changing the way she ate. After coworkers saw a beautiful change in Mary, they asked if she could cook for them, bringing to light something she never thought was on her journey.

We cover everything from

How she thought this pain was her everyday normal and tried to bargain with God for answers.
Dropping out of high school and then immediately succeeding in her corporate job while being so much younger than her coworkers.
How meeting Tyler Florence (a big time chef) was the sign from the universe to quit her corporate job and become a full time chef for others.
Success stories she’s had from her clients and people who have downloaded her “Gut Reset Program”.
Her success with her own recipe “Phat Fudge” and how the pandemic has caused an unexpected rebuild for it.
Why she likes to say PaleYou instead of Paleo.

You can hear the passion Mary has in her work. She emphasizes that this changes from person to person, but you can gain control over your body again. Through time and patience, you can heal your gut.
