What if your backyard could do more than grow grass?

What if it could grow peaches, berries, herbs and flowers… feed your family, welcome birds and pollinators, and become a peaceful sanctuary all at the same time?

Today we’re stepping into the fascinating world of Food Forests with Dr. Lynn Doxon. Lynn has spent more than 50 years pioneering sustainable horticulture and regenerative food systems, earned her PhD in Horticulture, and has helped more than half a million people better understand how we can work with nature rather than against it.

But her passion began years ago in Honduras, where she witnessed families growing sophisticated, abundant, multi-layered food systems long before “regenerative agriculture” became a popular phrase. When the traditional agricultural world resisted what she was discovering, Lynn eventually made a powerful decision: she stopped waiting for permission.

She began creating her own food forest - and today her grandchildren pick fruit right from her yard. One visitor walked through her garden and described it simply as “a meditation garden.” I love that, because this conversation really isn’t just about gardening. It’s about abundance, beauty, connection, and creating something today that can continue nourishing the people we love tomorrow. Let’s call in Food Forests! Let’s Call IT in With Dar!

Have you ever thought, “I’m eating the same way I always have… so why is my body suddenly responding so differently?” For many women in midlife and beyond, the old tricks—eating less, counting calories, skipping meals, or trying harder—just don’t seem to work anymore. And when the weight comes back, it’s easy to blame ourselves.

My guest today says there may be a much better way. Dr. Heather Awad is a family physician and certified coach who experienced this frustration herself. After gaining weight in her mid-40s without significantly changing how she ate, she began digging into what happens to a woman’s body during the menopause transition. By changing how she ate and addressing emotional eating with greater self-compassion, Heather ultimately lost 27 pounds.

Today we’re talking about Losing Weight for the Last Time—without making food the enemy. We’ll explore her simple “menopause plate,” why grazing all day may be working against you, how to handle the person who insists you have just one more piece of dessert, and perhaps most importantly, how to get off that exhausting merry-go-round of perfection, guilt, and starting over on Monday.

Because maybe lasting change isn’t about having more willpower. Maybe it’s about finally understanding the body you’re living in now.

Let’s “Call IT In” ...” Call IT In With Dar!”
